With the Igo title vacant after Koyo Toya's retirement, Jūdan Ogata, who advanced to the final of the challenger decider, played Professional Nogi in game 5 of the five-game Igo title match. Ogata won in the end and became a double title holder, and after the game he engaged in a lively verbal battle with Honinbo Kuwabara. "Now that Ogata-kun holds a title, I too must seriously challenge the Igo and Jūdan titles." "I'll be waiting for you at the top seat (￣ー￣)." Although the interior of the game venue is not explicitly shown in the work, judging by the exterior, this hotel should be correct. By the way, the original model for the Seven Stars Hotel, the venue of the Hokuto Cup, is also this hotel. However, the Seven Stars Hotel is set in Tokyo, so although it borrows the same visual elements, the Hokuto Cup venue is not the same as the venue for game 5 of the Igo title match. Igo Title Match Game 5: Jūdan Ogata vs. Professional Nogi (vol.17 p.74). Also the exterior model for the Hokuto Cup venue. 5-3-68 Nakanoshima, Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture. Details
