I really need to actually read Hikaru no Go properly! I bought and read some of it manymany years ago, and saw a handful of anime episodes, but the drama was the first version I ever watched/read in its entirety (and loved it). So then I bought all the manga volumes I'd been missing, but still haven't cracked them open. ^^;

What's so fun about HnG is that it's still appealing even when you don't know the game.

It is ridiculous how true this is. It has no right to be so charming!
