Jowa's powerful games -- 3 of 3

This game was an under-advertised great fighting game, played between Jowa and his rival, Inoue Genan Inseki(井上因碩幻庵). The scale, intensity of fights and amount of readings involved are overwhelming.
This game was played in 1814, and was one of the many unofficial matches between the pair of rivals early in their careers. Throughout the game you can clearly see bad bloods were accumulating between the pair, as they both tried to destroy each other.
Black 113 and 115 are brilliant moves. However a couple mistakes later in the large-scale semeai costed black the game.
