| '''Honinbō''' (本因坊, ''Hon'inbō'') was the name of one of the ] of ] in ]. Easily the strongest school of Go for most of its existence, it was established in 1612 and survived until 1940. | |||
| Upon the closure of the school, the title ''Hon'inbō'' came to be used for the winner of the ], which is now an annual professional go event in Japan. It is run under the ], meaning that at any given time there is a player who can use the title Hon'inbō. It is customary for Japanese players to take a special personal name as Hon'inbō, a unique feature of this title; for example ] held the title for nine years, and during this time was referred to as Hon'inbō Shukaku. Players of other nationalities by custom do not adopt a special name, but do use the Hon'inbō title. | |||

| Hon'inbō Shūsai sold his title to the Japan Go Association before retiring in 1936, effectively ending the Hon'inbō line.<ref>https://www.japantimes.co.jp/culture/2016/12/03/books/book-reviews/exploration-game-heart-master-go/#.WzoxDNVKjIU</ref> | |||
| All three of the "go saints" (or '']'') came from this school— Dosaku, Shusaku and Jowa (although Jowa is frequently reviled because of his machinations while trying to become '']''). Most of the holders of the ''Meijin'' title (awarded to a player recognised by all as strongest) were also from this house. Another prominent member was ] (秀策, 1829–1862), who was heir to become head of the school, but died of ] before officially becoming Hon'inbō. | |||
| The ] decided to name players who had won the Hon'inbō tournament 5 times or more in a row (making them Honorary Hon'inbō) would be given the Hon'inbō prefix after ] won the title 10 times in a row. This meant that ] (9 in a row), ] (7), ] (5), and ] (10) may be addressed as 22nd, 23rd, 24th and 25th Hon'inbō respectively whether or not they are currently holding the Hon'inbō title. | |||
