The book also describes about Munenori YAGYU and Musashi MIYAMOTO (the latter is written as Musashi TAKEMURA, who was confused with Yoemon TAKEMURA, a high-caliber disciple) and evaluates Musashi's ability as being higher than that of 'Tajima even in nine-stone handicap Igo (board game of capturing territory) matches'.
本の中では柳生宗矩と宮本武蔵（本の中では竹村武蔵と書かれており、高弟の竹村与右衛門と混同している）にふれる記述もあり、「但馬にくらぶれば、碁にていえば井目（せいもく）も武蔵強し」と武蔵の方が実力は上だと評している。
