Toyoshima Kudan ate down to the end, but at 5:39 pm he finished with 84 moves.
At the age of 20, Fujii Gokan decorated his first official match with a white star and scored 2 wins and 1 defeat in the "Oi" match.
Gokan Fujii said, "I haven't had much experience and it was a difficult development from the beginning. The next game is a while away, so I think I should prepare the conditions and face it."
On the other hand, the defeated Toyoshima Kudan said, "I thought it was close to the same shape, but I wasn't sure where the situation went wrong. I want to prepare well for the next time and do my best."
