Aoba Kaori5-dan

"From the NHK Cup assistant's seat to the boards of the Central region."

Knowing "Has been the assistant on the NHK Cup and a Go lecture instructor, and is active at the Central Branch" from the official profile makes Aoba Kaori's games look a little different. I want to watch where they seize the flow and how they move the game.
