The fourth game of the 33th Ryuou Title series 7-game match ,where Habu 9-dan was challenging Toyoshima Ryuou was held at Ibushiki Hakusikan in Ibusuki city. Ibusuki Hakusikan was the place where Habu 9-dan got a permanent 7 crowns on December 5th in 2017. Ibusuki city is located in Kyusyuu island (southern part of Japan ) and famous for hot spring.
The forth game was supposed to be held at Yoshikawaya(Fukushima city) on November 12 and 13. Due to the Habu9-dan`s illness.The fouth game was postphoned.
He had a fever symptom and his temperature was 38.5degrees celicious after He finish the third game of Ryuou Title mach on November 8th and went home on November 9th. His symptoms was Aseptic meningitis and Covid-test was negative. He had hospitalized until November 13th and returned the Oshou Tournament on November 17th.
Toyoshima Ryuou was first mover and game form was side pawn picker. Toyoshima Ryuou won with 113 moves. Toyoshima Ryuou was 3-win and 1-loss.
I am worried about Habu 9-dan`s condition. I wish next game would also dramatic game.
