Sample Game
Here are the first six rounds of a game played at a meeting of the International Shogi Research Group on 28 May 1932. John Fairbairn describes some of the moves as "strange" considering the professional level of the players.
The players were,
- First: Kimi Kinjiro (8-dan)
- Middle: Miyamatsu Kanzaburo (7-dan)
- Last: Yamamoto Kusuro (7-dan)
The game began without an alliance.
