Karigane Junichi
Karigane Junichi 雁金準一 (1879-1959) was probably the number two player in Japan for the period between 1907 and 1926 when he was in the shadow of Shusai.
Karigane did not join the Nihon Ki-in; his rival organisation Kiseisha played a match against the Ki-in, in which the 'group-capturing masterpiece' game of 1926 Karigane-Shusai occurred - it became the most anthologised game of the period (see Killer of Go).
Karigane later founded Keiinsha. He returned to top-level competition for an unfinished jubango against Go Seigen in 1941.
In 1899 he played Korean champion Paek Nam-kyu, with alternate games being sunjang baduk.
