Master Touya's Residence.
Page 45. Frame 3. Balloon 1. Amano: Thank you for giving me this interview so early in the New Year.
45.4.1. Amano: A Go Master holding five titles is a big story, but you're going to be busy making news yourself, aren't you, Touya-kun?
46.1.1. Amano: It's unfortunate that your winning streak came to an end at 26, but we have great expectations of you this year.
46.2.1. Touya: I'll try to meet them.
46.3.1. Amano: Well, I guess that's it for today.

47.1.2. Amano: So I wasn't even going to ask this year, but are you thinking of playing?
47.2.1. Master Touya: If I may name my opponent.
47.3.1. Touya: !
47.4.1. Master Touya: It has been two years since I met him.
47.5.1. Master Touya: And he's finally made it.
