This jubango, sponsored by the Yomiuri Shinbun, took place from 1939 to 1941 between Go Seigen and Kitani Minoru. They played in the temples near Kamakura, a coastal town in the Kanagawa prefecture less than an hour south of Tokyo. Go Seigen won the series 6-4. It is probably the most celebrated match of the twentieth century.
