1st Kisei

1st Kisei

The 1st Kisei was the birth of a new Go tournament. After the scuffle between Yomiuri Shimbun and Asahi for the role of sponsor of the Meijin title, Yomiuri went on and created the Kisei. Since this was the first year of the tournament, there was no set challenger or holder. From the 2nd edition on, there has been a playoff between challengers. At the time, it was the highest paying tournament there had ever been, and would be up until the creation of the Ing Cup.

Fujisawa Hideyuki's win would mark the beginning of a six year defense of the Kisei title from 1977 - 1982.
