ABE naturally opened his Bishop line with 1.P-7f and WATANABE pushed the 8th file Pawn with 1...P-8d . WATANABE's 1...P-8d perhaps means he would accepts ABE's choice both Yagura and Kakukawari opening . But ABE selected the opening of Rikisen Furibisha with 2.P-5f .

WATANABE advanced the 8th file Pawn with 2...P-8e and pushed the 5th file Pawn with 3...P-5d to avoid ABE's Gosuji Kurai dori Nakabisha .

ABE moved up his left Silver with 4.S-6h , and he seemed to select Wanpaku Nakabisha line , because 4.R-8h is natural move to select MASUDA ryu Mukai Bisha . ABE didn't select Nakabisha with 5.R-5h , but advanced his 6h-Silver with 5.S-5g .

WATANABE opened the Bishop line with 5...P-3d , ABE turned his Rook with 6.R-8h and the opening became Sente Mukai Bisha . After some moves , ABE made Kata mino gakoi and WATANABE made Funa gakoi . WATANABE closed the Bishop line with 10...P-4d to fasten his Kakoi and make the game quiet one .

ABE exchanged the 8th file Pawns by his Bishop and prepared to attack . After some moves , ABE's left Knight jumped capturing the 8e-Pawn .

WATANABE captured the 8e-Knight with 18...Nx8e . ABE dropped a Pawn with 19.P*8f to kill the 8e-Knight . WATANABE exchanged the 8e-Knight with the 9g-Pawn and dropped the Pawn to avoid an advance of ABE's 8th file Pawn .

Although WATANABE defended the 8th file , ABE still attacked in the 7th & 8th files . Until 31.P*8d , ABE succeeded to make WATANABE's Rook useless . Sacrificing the Rook , WATANABE tried to attack with making a promoted Pawn on 6h .

1.P-7f P-8d

3.P-5e S-6b
4.R-5h K-4b
(diagram 1)











The game started with FUKAURA's move 1.P-7f . Since FUKAURA is basicaly a Ibisha player , he seemed to want a Yagura or Kakukawari game . KIMURA shown his attitude to accept FUKAURA's choice with 1...P-8d .

But FUKAURA moved 2.P-5f , instead of 2.S-6h (Yagura) or 2.P-2f (Kakukawari) . The move 2.P-5f is a beginning of Rikisen Furibisha . FUKAURA somtimes selects Rikisen Furibisha include ISHIDA ryu and Gokigen Nakabisha .

In this game , KIMURA opened his Bishop line with 2...P-3d , before advancing his Pawns to 8e & 5d . Then FUKAURA could get a Kurai of the 5th file with P-5e and the opening became Sente Gosuji Kuraidori Nakabisha .

(diagram 2)







KIMURA completed Funa gakoi with 6...G6a-5b . But FUKAURA only moved up his King with 5. K-4h and advanced his left Gold to 4e without complete his Kakoi.

KIMURA advanced his right Silver to 6d and threatened FUKAURA's 7g-Bishop's head . FUKAURA floated his Rook with 11.R-5f aiming at KIMURA's king directly in front . After sacrifice 1 Pawn with 11...P-8f , KIMURA moved another Silver with S-4b to defend the King's head .

(diagram 3)












FUKAURA captured the 3d-Pawn by 4e-Gold , and the Gold was exchanged with KIMURA's Silver . FUKAURA's Rook turned to 3f , in front of KIMURA's King . KIMURA dropped a Gold in hand with 15...G*4e , not only to defend the King's head but also to attac FUKAURA's Rook .

19.R-3f G-4e
20.R-3d G-4d
21.R-3f N-7c
22.B-6h sealed
(diagram 4)








FUKAURA's Rook escaped with R-3d . KIMURA's Gold chased the Rook for a while . The game seemed to end with a draw by repetition . But KIMURA's changed the move 21...N-7c instead of G-4e . Perhaps KIMURA had something good position .


KIMURA sealed the 44th move , and the game once stopped today . The game will restart next morning .
