Honinbo Shusaku            Origin/Culture/Country: Japanese

Honinbo Shusaku: was a professional Go player and is considered by many to be the greatest player of the golden age of Go in the mid-19th century.He was nicknamed "Invincible" after he earned a perfect score for 19 straight wins in the annual castle games. Some say that he was not stronger than his teacher, Honinbo Shuwa, who by convention did not play in the castle games. In addition out of respect for the elderly teacher, Shusaku refused to play with white against his teacher thus there is no clear gauge of the difference in strength between them. Shusaku, for example, had a plus score against Ota Yuzo but still found him a tough opponent, while Shuwa beat him easily.
