Yes, he is.

But the piece stand is always put on player's right side, by the way.

@linfeixb27: Most title matches are played in Japan, but the first game of the 35th Ki-ou-Sen was played in Shanghai, most likely to promote shogi there. Shanghai has lots of shogi fans.

Why is it China, not Japan? How are the events location decided?

I guess that's why it's called  QUICK ishida attack

Every match you've shown with Kubo is very exciting. I hope he plays more exciting games and you show them. xD
