Tang Jie, CHN 5d did a one-hour video review of this game! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oAA4hh ... sp=sharing

I’ve included all of his (commented) variations, plus more KataGo variations, in the OGS review as well.

In game 79 (7 komi, NZ rules), black gets an enormous bottom right corner and side whereas white gets an enormous top and center area enclosing black's top left corner. (The .sgf includes two high-playout variations which appear to be the main line.) https://online-go.com/review/886713

Game 89 (7 komi, NZ rules) is our first game with four 3-3 invasions. Interestingly, moves 9 - 16 are identical with game 49, although move 9 was reached by a different move order. Game 89 ended as a draw, with black and white each having five living groups on the board. We almost got our first ever flying dagger joseki. (Technically, it's only called "flying dagger" if black move 39 is N6. The result in this game seems to be called "simple inside cut B".) And we got a crane's nest!

In game 93 (NZ rules, 7 komi), around move 134 white starts to make a small life inside black's center moyo, but black profits enough elsewhere to draw the game. White 252 and 266 are such pretty-looking endgame moves

In game 94 (7 komi, NZ rules), black gives a 48-point lower side territory away to white in exchange for exerting pressure onto white's right side group that has invaded black's moyo there. After black move 249. A9, KataGo suddenly realizes that white is 8 points ahead rather than it being an even game still. Black gets depressed, throws a fit, and in the end white wins by about 30 points. https://online-go.com/review/952287

In game 95 (7 komi, NZ rules), despite white's best efforts at reduction, black gets a 49-point lower side territory. Of course, white ends up with a left side group that's almost as large. The lower left corner features our third seki in this game series. Black wins the game by 2 points. https://online-go.com/review/955134

Clossius, AGA 3d did a 45-minute video review of this game! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfyGREOO0NQ

I’ve included all of his (commented) variations, plus more KataGo variations, in the OGS review as well.

Hi, sorry I haven't been online much this year. I'm pleased to see this series is still going! Are you planning anything special for the 100th game? :-)
