Biography
Takabe was a pupil of Honinbo Shuei, the 17th and 19th head of the Honinbō house. In the 1920s, he joined the Kiseisha, a splinter group of the Nihon Ki-in, Japan's main administrative body for Go. The Kiseisha was succeeded by the Keiinsha, of which Takabe was also a member, until 1991 when the last of its members died. In addition, he was one of the five Hiseikai, a group formed in 1922 and devoted to tournament play.[1] The other members of the Hiseikai were Chiyotaro Onoda, Segoe Kensaku, Tamejiro Suzuki and Karigane Junichi.
Nakano Kiichiro was Takabe's only pupil.
