The first game of the 63th Oui Title series 7-game match, where Toyoshima 9-dan was challenging Fujii Oui was held at Hotel Indigo Inuyama Urakuen Garden in Inuyama city on June 28th and 29th.
Toyoshima 9-dan lost to Fujii Oui in Oui Title Series, Eiou Title Series and Ryuou Title Series last year. As a result, He lost Eiou Title and Ryuou Title. He wanted to revenge.
Game form was Bishop exchange. Sente was Toyoshima 9-dan. Oui Title Series` thinking time was 8 hours each . Oui Title Series began at 9:00am. Toyoshima 9-dan did not use much thinking time and played very fast at the opening game and middle game. On the other hand , Fujii Oui spent too much thinking time. Thinking time difference was three hours , but Fujii Oui defended Toyoshima Eoin’s attack and tried to attack enemy’s camp. He could not approach Toyoshima 9-dan`s king.
Toyoshima Ryuou won with a complete victory with 121 moves in this game. Toyoshima 9-dan`s thinking time was 1 hour and 30 minutes left at the end. Game finished at 17:30pm.
Toyoshima 9-dan`s deep research made him complete victory. Can Toyoshima 9-dan get Oui Title? I am looking for next game.
