This is analysis from one of the two games of an online match between Tokyo and Kuwata. This was posted on YouTube on 19 June. The players are Mr. Blue (Black) vs Izumi (White) I don't think sides were swapped.
My plan is to post these games on BoardGameGeek, with pictures and with Google Translated Japanese added to the English. I would be grateful for any corrections to my analysis, before I do that! But it's no big deal. Also, posting here in Japanese is welcomed by the administrator, Alan Hensel.

|1.t20 2.p9 3.m10 4.m16 5.o15 6.m8 7.i8
maybe 8.n18 then if 9.q16 10.n13 11.n12 12.l12 13.p13 14.k9 15.j10 16.j11 17.i12 18.i15 19.h14 20.j17 21.g16 22.g20, but 9.t15 looks better, threatening white L12 or S9 and I don't know who is better.
8.k12 was played. Now 9.o9 looks good: 10.l10 11.q10 12.o7 13.r8 14.r4 15.t5 16.u3 17.r6 18.q6 19.u2
9.k9 was played. Now 10.p17 11.r16 12.p13 13.m14 14.l14 15.q14 16.n13 17.o11 18.q11 19.o13 20.p12
The game continued 10.n15 11.n13 12.o20 13.q19 14.r21 15.s18
Now 16.u20 would not have worked but was a sneaky try, but it was not played. The game ended 16.p17 17.p18
I should mention 10.p17 11.p18 12.n16 13.q16 14.o14 15.p13 16.p12 17.q11 18.o9 with lots of branches but I believe black still wins.
