Kansai Kiin
The Kansai Ki-in is one of the professional go bodies in Japan, just like the Nihon Ki-in. Shortly after the second world war the Nihon Ki-in set up a Western Japan branch . The main driver for this was the increasing difficulty professionals from the Osaka region experienced during the war travelling to Tokyo for their professional activities. When a dispute over the Honinbo title arose between the Tokyo and Osaka branches, the latter declared itself independent in September 1950 and the Kansai Ki-in was born.
