Question for Japanese speakers:

I have noticed that many Japanese Shogi book titles have "yaburi" in 
them (sorry, this listserve doesn't print kanji). Kato has a Furibisha 
Yaburi book and Suzuki has a couple of Shikenbisha Yaburi books. I know 
that "yaburi" means tear or rip, but is the idea that the Joseki is 
ripping or being ripped? In other words, is the idea "Winning with the 
Shikenbisha," or "Beating the Shikenbisha"? I was looking at these 
titles on Amazon Japan, and would like to know before choosing to order 
them.

Thank you,

Eric Kuniholm
