Koji Tanigawa's "O-i" Title Defense Era. Historical Material Recording a Heated Battle in Tokushima This is the actual "Fuzite" (sealed move) from the 3rd game of the 32nd O-i Title Match, held on August 6th-7th, 1991 (Heisei 3). This series saw Koji Tanigawa, the O-i title holder (now 17th-generation Meijin), who was at the pinnacle of the shogi world at the time, challenged by the up-and-coming Hiroki Nakata, a 5-dan player. As a result, Tanigawa defended his title with a 4-2 victory, but this is a valuable relic from the crucial middle game of the 3rd match.
