Go Seigen (W) vs Kitani Minoru (B) - Real Board ASMR
This is a game of go between legends of the game, Go seigen (White) and Kitani Minoru (Black). Go Seigen is often considered the greatest player of all time. His close friend “The Great“ Kitani Minoru was one of the most influential teachers in the recent history. The combined Dan ranking of his students is 300d. Together, starting with their exploration of the Shin Fuseki, they changed the way the game was played more than any players had in over a hundred years.
The match we are watching in this episode took place in the first round of the 14th Annual NHK Cup Tournament on December 18, 1966. This is, by no means, the most important or famous match between these two revolutionaries. I chose this game for the first episode because it was the last time they ever played each other in the professional arena. The game has been provided without spoilers or commentary. I tried to provide something that could be used as a game study or just enjoyed for the pure aesthetic of this beautiful game. I wanted to provide a watchable game with high quality video and audio complete with a perceivable stereo image. So for best results, watch wearing headphones.
The game record was provided for free by and can be found here. If you have not watched the video yet, I suggest doing so. SPOILER ALERT! The game record page shows the final result.
My goal for this channel would be to, one day, film real games between real professionals on full size gobans with slate and shell stones. I will be posting other kinds of other go-related videos but for now I will focus on getting some pro games up for your enoyment.
Soon I would like to upgrade my go equipment. For now I am using a bamboo table-top board and yunzi stones from Yellow Mountain imports, which is really nice for the price and I’m very happy with it. But who doesn’t dream of owning some real sea shell white stones? If you would like to see my go equipment upgraded please like, subscribe and say so in the comments. When I reach 100 subscribers I will be starting a fundraiser to upgrade my equipment to a Kurokigoishiten goban and slate and shell stones. To check them out, go here.
I will be experimenting in future videos with different lighting, camera angles, microphones, mic placement, etc. I recorded this in my sun room on a fairly quiet afternoon. There are some Background noises here and there that I hope aren’t too distracting. Please let me know what you think.
