SHIMIZU selected Aigakarai , her favorite opening in this game , and NAKAO accepted it . After second file Pawn exchange , SHIMIZU backed her Rook to 2f , Ukibisha position .

After both players pushed the 1st file Pawn and moved up the right Silver straight , NAKAO pushed the 6th file Pawn to make Koshikakegin shape .　Replying the 8...P-6d , SHIMIZU pushed the 7th file Pawn to open her Bishop line . The 7f-Pawn blocked the 2f-Rook's side power and NAKAO exchanged the 8th file Pawn .

Instead of 11.P*8g , SHIMIZU could select TSUKADA special with 11.P*2d . In this line , the game will advance like following moves ; 11.P*2d Px2d , 12.Rx2d , and aiming at the 6d-Pawn . If Gote protects the Pawn with 12...S-6c , the following moves will give Sente an advantage ; 12...S-6c , 13.P-1e Px1e , 14.P*1d P*2c , 15.R-2e . Gote should back his Rook 12...R-8b , and Gote can get advantage by following moves ; 12...R-8b , 13.Rx6d P-3d! .

After 11.P*8g , both player was making Koshikakegin form . But during the moves , NAKAO closed his Bishop line with 15...P-4d to make the game quiet . SHIMIZU started developing her camp to Ginkanmuri with 18.S-8h . Before completed Ginkanmuri , NAKAO attacked SHIMIZU's camp with 19...P-7e .

SHIMIZU was preparing an attack with 22.P-3f & 23.N-3g . Replying SHIMIZU's moves , NAKAO developed his Kakoi with 22...S4b-4c & 23...K-3a . NAKAO advanced his right Gold to join attacking and SHIMIZU developed her Kakoi .

After backed the Rook with 29.R-2i , SHIMIZU started attacking with 30.P-1e .

In this game , SATO selected strange opening . Why I feel strange ? The move 2.S-7h mainly means , the player wants to select Shiken Bisha , but in this line Sente player usually closed his Bishop line with 3.P-6f replying 2...P-3d . In stead of 3.P-6f , SATO moved up his Bishop with 3.B-7g .

When I saw 3.B-7g , I though SATO wanted a Kakukawari game with odd starting moves . But he closed the Bishop line 5.P-6f . Finally SATO selected Mukai Bisha .

FUKAURA moved up his Bishop with 7...B-4d aiming at unprotected 2f-Pawn . SATO pushed the 2nd file Pawn with P-2e to escape from the Bishop line .

FUKAURA once made a Kani gakoi . After made Kata mino gakoi , SATO advanced his left Silver with 12.S-5f threatening the 4d-Bishop's head . FUKAURA jumped his left Knight with N-3c to defend the Bishop head . SATO developped his Kakoi to Hon mino gakoi .

SATO pushed the 4th file Pawn with 16.P-4e and FUKAURA backed the aimed Bishop .
SATO also pushed the 6th file Pawn to re-open his Bishop line . FUKAURA moved his King to 2a avoiding SATO's Bishop line .

SATO backed the 5f-Silver with 18.S5f-4g making a Diamond Mino gakoi . FUKAURA jumped his right Knight aiming at unprotected 6e-Pawn . SATO turned his Rook with 19.R-6h to protect the 6e-Pawn .

FUKAURA started developing his Kakoi to Millenium gakoi like formation . SATO floated his Rook with 21.R-6f and started attacking with 22.P-7e .

After some moves , SATO's continued attacking and a Bishop drop 40.B*5e forking 2h-King and 6d-Rook . But SATO gave FUKAURA many pieces in the same time . SATO dropped a Rook with 42.R*5a , and FUKAURA dropped a Knight with 42...N*3f , both moves directly aiming at each other's King .

HABU pushed the 9th file Pawn , opened the Bishop line , and moved up the right Silver before the 8th file Pawn exchange . After YAMASAKI's Silver advance to 2g , HABU exchanged the 8th file Pawns . And replying YAMASAKI's 11.P*8g , HABU backed his Rook to 8e .

YAMASAKI moved up his left Silver with 12.S-6h , and HABU attacked in the 9th file such an early stage of the game . HABU's 9th file Pawn got a good position . YAMASAKI tried to recover an advantage , backed 2g-Silver with 14.S-3h and floated his Rook with 15.R-2f . YAMASAKI tried to make his Rook useful and to make his King safety . But HABU also naturally developed his camp .

The difference between both players Rook and Bishop usefulness perhaps gave HABU a slight advantage .
