Hello shogi fans,

Ouza Habu and Kubo(8 dan). The thinking-time per player is 5 hours. As a 
result of Furigoma, Kubo became Sente player.

For those who can read Japanese, here is the toppage of special reports 
about the 1st game.

Kubo transfers his Rook to 7th file and enters into hostilities at the 
7th move of P-7d which is called Hayaishida. He beat Moriuchi with this 
opening strategy at the game of challenger-deciding match on July 31. 
The game is also available to replay at

Ouza-sen games will normally end in the evening(Japan time). But in this 
game, it may end earlier due to the nature of the opening strategy Kubo 
chose.

Have fun
Manabu Terao
