Hikaru no Go

        Hello, everybody. This week, after the horrible mid-term, I’m going to introduce another famous cartoon called “Hikaru no Go”. It is mainly about a board game called Go. When I was in elementary school, my parents let me learn some skills about Go. But after a while, I considered it too difficult and give up gaining more skills.
        The main character in this cartoon is called “Hikaru Shindo”. Firstly, he didn’t know much about Go. But he accidentally met a “ghost” called Fujiwara-no-Sai. Fujiwara-no-Sai was very good at Go and had taught Hikaru Shindo a lot. One day, they met another important character named Akira Toya in a club. At that time, Akira Toya’s skill was really brilliant and few people could beat him. Surprisingly, Hikaru Shindo beat him with the help of Fujiwara-no-Sai. From then on, Hikaru Shindo’s main goal was to beat Akira Toya, and Akira Toya’s main goal is to beat Hikaru Shindo( actually the person beat Akira Toya was Fujiwara-no-Sai). They both got stronger with the insistence on their goal.
        I think this cartoon is really interesting. If you can play Go, I really recommend you watching it. You will definitely find it funny.

  4. I love this cartoon, too. By the way, have you watched the animation of Miyazaki Hayao, Spirited Away? I think it is interesting that the main character in that animation, Haku, looks like Toya.
