Taikyoku Shogi!

Hey all,

The video below shows two professional Shogi players playing against each other using the largest Shogi variation, which is 36x36 and has more than 200 different pieces! Enjoy!

Does anyone know where you can get the moves list for that game?

Also, since it's been removed from YouTube, let me give you an updated link ...

Since my last comment I've researched that game and found that there was no record made of the moves. So unfortunately it can't be replayed. BUT, for anyone wanting to study any Taikyoku games, I did find the moves lists for some other games here ... http://www32.atwiki.jp/taikyoku-syougi/pages/1.html . The links on the left side of the page その7(棋譜1, その8(棋譜2), and その9(棋譜3) are the moves lists for three games.
