Alexei,
Yes, the 4th game of Meijin-sen was very interested anyway.
I believe Sato, from beginning, didn't consider to take
Ibi_ana due to avoiding Tanigawa's Fuji system. We may
expect remaining three games more exciting.

One more interesting game was All Japan Pro, Maruyama vs
Moriuchi, in which Maruyama completely won the three games
and everybody felt Maruyama's movement was to loose good friends,
especially in the 1st game, 66Fu, 78Kin.
His pretty smile is very lovely but the mind seems to be so cold
like iron, really ?
Ha,ha.
