"Hikaru No Go" "It's him..." "He used to play like this..." "Here" "The Sai I couldn't find anywhere3" "Was here... 3" "The only way to see you again3" "Was to play3" "I'm going to play" "From now on, tens hundreds, thousands of games" "Against you and Waya." "And Ochi, everyone" ""First Return Game"" "Goodbye" "Do you really want to go?" "Only today?" "I've told you that I'll keep on going this path" "Don't forget to tell the school" "Win today and you're 3-dan?" "Yeah" "Isn't your opponent that guy who's been missing the games?" "Yeah" "So I get an easy rise in dan with a default win" "Damn!" "How lucky!" "In fact, I would like to defeat him then rise in dan" "Good morning" "Shindo..." "You are here" "Damn!" "Why did Shindo have to start coming today?" "Shindo is here?" "Tsujioka" "My next dan game is against him" "That's great" "I've been waiting to play against him" "Wanting to play against him?" "Huh?" "Yes" "I once heard a rumor that Touya thinks of him as a rival" "Touya thinks of him as a rival?" "A rumor like that?" "Hey, hey are you serious?" "Touya who entered the Honinbo League?" "Good morning" "Touya..." "Shindo..." "Please" "Please" "Please Please" "I played against him in last year's Young Lions Tournament" "He surprised me with a good hand during the game" "But his skills were lacking and I won by six and a half points" "Yet..." "After the game, Touya kept asking me about how he played" "At the time, I was irritated that he was asking about a guy who lost" "So Touya really sees this guy as a rival?" "I'll play carefully protect my territories" "Take it into the final stage and win there" "I'll let you know that games are not easy" "Stand up" "Bow" "Sansei" "What's the matter, Kaneko?" "Huh?" "Is that true, Kaneko?" "Hikaru is absent today because of a game?" "Yeah, and he'll be missing the next 2 or 3 days for some study group or something" "All I know is that it's about playing Go" "Hikaru has got himself together again" "That's great" "That's great." "Hikaru" "Yeah" "We're right before summer vacation and have half classes anyway" "Our teacher, Suzuki Sansei doesn't mind him missing class" "He said he's just glad Hikaru is happy again" "First he says he might quit as a pro and now he's skipping school to play Go?" "What a selfish guy" "Like you aren't selfish?" "What'd you say?" "Suddenly saying you're entering the tournament before that, you'd only come for practice when you felt like it" "It's you" "Shindo probably just returned to being a pro because he didn't want to study for the exams" "You say that as if you're actually studying for them" "Shut up!" "But thanks to Mitani we got to enter the tournament and had so much fun!" "Yeah, the boys got all the way to the finals" "Even though you got swept by Kaio" "The girls were great too winning the first round 3-0" "Yeah, that's right" "I'm so happy" "Hey..." "All the third-years are going to be leaving the Club" "I'll be all alone." "What should I do?" "Koike, don't you know" "This Go Club was started by only one person named Tsutsui" "Only one?" "Yeah, Tsutsui started it alone" "Then Hikaru entered, and I joined in" "Then Hikaru dragged in Mitani" "It all started like that" "Then we invited Kaneko in" "Then Natsume and Kumilko" "Our Go Club started like this" "Huh?" "It's fun to have many members" "But I think it's also fun to start from the beginning" "From now on, it's Koike's Go Club" "Mine?" "Hey, you look happy" "My Go Club..." "You have to beat Kaio" "That's impossible" "The Haze Junior High Go Club changes" "We all change" "Hikaru, who said he was quitting as a pro is working hard again" "I guess right now he's probably... in front of a Go board with a serious look on his face" "Damn..." "I am weak" "That hand is a mistake" "I can't stand it." "Take a break first" "Great game" "Thank you" "But it's a great pity" "You've won several games That's pretty good" "Yeah" "Isumi" "Yes?" "You've been to Shindo's?" "Yeah" "What?" "Really?" "How is Shindo?" "No, I don't know" "But he seems to get himself together" "We play a cheerful game" "Oh yeah?" "That brad, he made me so worried" "It's weird" "I shouldn't only focus on territories" "I must attack" "Shindo Hikaru?" "I really don't know what the youngsters are thinking" "Kamiki?" "What's wrong?" "Why did you sign?" "Amano" "Amano..." "Excuse me" "This is Ogata" "This is Amano" "Hello Can I talk to you for a second?" "You've heard about Shindo Hikaru?" "Yeah" "He joined the games" "Thank you for telling this news" "Goodbye" "He's back?" "Yeah, I'll reconfirm" "Where's the editor?" "Kuwabara Sansei" "Here, the original scripts you need" "Thank you very much" "I have something to do nearby so I bring them to you" "That's great" "What's wrong?" "Amano" "Nothing." "I'm only thinking" "You've told me about Shindo Hikaru" "You said he'll be back" "Yeah." "Am I right?" "Yeah." "But why does everyone concern about Shindo?" "You, Ogata Sansei, Kurata Sansei and even Touya Sansei" "Why?" "Maybe that's the reason everybody wants to know" "What?" "Don't worry." "You'll know the reason" "That's what my instinct tells me" "Instinct?" "All right" "Got it" "Why is such a strong kid in the lower dans?" "There's no way I could win" "I have nothing" "Thank you very much" "Thank you very much" "I resign" "Touay's done too?" "What?" "He's leaving?" "Without watching Shindo's first return game?" "If he thinks of him as his rival then he should want to watch" "Was that rumor false?" "Or...there's an another reason?" "Could it be..." "It's not worth watching him play a lower dan?" "Shindo's strength" "Only I can measure when I play against him" "I realized that the night he appeared before me" "Oh yeah, the first-round matchups for the Meijin Tournament were sent out yesterday" "And Touya's first-round opponent is..." "I can just wait" "A direct matchup has already been prepared" "Hikaru No Go" "I played against him in last year's Young Lions Tournament" "He surprised me with a good hand during the game" "But his skills were lacking and I won by six and a half points" "Yet..." "After the game" "After the game, Touya kept asking me about how he played" "At the time, I was irritated that he was asking about a guy who lost" "So Touya really sees this guy as a rival?" "Yeah" "It's done" "Shindo's strength" "Only I can measure when I play against him" "I realized that the night he appeared before me" "I can just wait" "A direct matchup has already been prepared" ""The Sprinting Two"" "It appears Shindo's attack to the middle white group is being deflected" "But that's all Shindo's intention" "Murakami thinks he is deflecting his opponent's attacks but in reality he's being forced to play extra hands as Shindo gains territory" "I have lost" "He lost all desire to keep fighting" "Thank you very much" "So he is Touya's rival" "Shindo" "Come with me for a second" "So, from now on, you'll be showing up to all your games" "I'll come" "I'll come." "I'll never do that again" "I believe the schedule for the Meijin Tournament" "First Preliminary has been sent" "Oh, I got it yesterday" "It's Touya 3-dan, right?" "Your first-round opponent" "Yes" "Touha's schedule is pretty full" "So I'm not sure when the game will be" "But Good luck" "There's actually a few that have big hops for you" "Yes!" "I'm sorry." "Goodbye" "How has hopes for Shindo?" "Amano" "It's Kuwabara Sansei" "He talked about him as being an equal to Touya Akira" "It was very surprising" "I see" "What do you mean?" "You have known already?" "Yeah" "Though to me" "Shindo just seems like an ill-mannered brat" "Well if many talented players like Touya appeared" "I'd be ecstatic" "So, the Pro Exam starts this week" "Whoever passes this year" "I hope it's not someone who misses the games like Shindo" "Shindo?" "Hey, Amano" "Should we be looking forward to the future of the Go world?" "Now, please begin" "Please..." "Shinoda Sansei" "Another year, another Pro Exam?" "Yeah" "First, the prelim" "Then the main exam next month" "Kadowaki and Isumi are the favorites?" "Did you see Isumi's face?" "It's vastly different from last year" "He's grown so much" "Oh yeah?" "That's good to hear" "He seemed to have a delicate side in the past" "Amano, in the Go world they act as if talent must develop early or it's wasted" "But I believe each person has their own pace" "There's nothing wrong with taking your time in life" "Your words" "I'll have to use them in Weekly Go if Isumi passes" "From last year's class Ochi and Waya are going great" "And Shindo won his first return match" "Hopefully this year's class can continue that" "So, black won't let me do as I wish" "White is facing difficult circumstances" "Damn!" "My chance to attack is gone" "If the black attack" "I'll protect and solve the problems" "Then there'll be no problems" "He's erasing every problem" "He's dominating with no worries" "Goodbye" "Goodbye" "He's beaten Murakami followed by Tsujioka" "Is a new wave coming?" "Is Shindo's strength for real?" ""Ouza Tournament Second Prelim, 2nd Round"" ""Touya Akira 3-dan"" ""Matsunaga Toshiyuki 6-dan"" "I have lost" ""Tengen Tournament 2nd Prelim, 1st Round"" ""Touya Akira 3-dan"" "I resign" "One by one, the higher dans are falling before him" "A new wave my be coming" "With Touya Akira at the head" ""Gosei Finals, Game Five"" "I have nothing" "Congratulations, Ogata Sansei" "With the 1 0-dan title this makes it two" "Thank you" "Nogi Sansei" "Your thoughts on the game?" "I hung in there, got pushed around" "Gave up..." "Nogi" "How disappointing for the man who defended the Meijin title 2 straight times, 1 0 years ago to be pushed around by the likes of Ogata" "Kuwabara Sansei" "I watched the game on the monitor" "Nogi" "We can't have us veterans not impose out will" "Like how you were able to successfully defeat Kurata to retain the Honinbotitle Kuwabara Sansei" "Next month's Meijin finals will be between Ichiryu and Hatanaka" "But no problem Ichiryu will slay the young Hatanaka" "We won't be handing over the throne to you youngsters" "Just yet" "Excuse me, Kuwabara Sansei" "But Ogata Sansei already has 2 titles" "Huh?" "I've been satisfied with just the Honinbo" "But with Ogata as the title holder" "I might seriously go after the 1 0-dan and Go Saint" "I match up well with Ogata and all" "Right, Ogata?" "I'll be waiting for you on the throne" "Not good" "He's become an imposing presence" "Ogata Sansei..." "Good morning" "Good morning" "Impressive" "And it's only been 2 years since the Beginner-dan series" "That time I won despite being under a reverse-five-and-a-half points handicap" "The difference in strength was clear" "Today is an even game" "You'll show me how much stronger you've gotten" "I was taking the record of that Beginner-dan series game, too" "Touya who was a Beginner-dan then to already be in the Honinbo League" "It really is unbelievable" "Please" "Yes, Press Room" "Oh, Miyake" "Huh?" "What did you say?" "Are you sure?" "Okay" "I see" "Miyake from the Morning News?" "What was that about?" "Touya Kouya sansei... has signed a contract with China's Beijing Team" "Beijing Team?" "The Beijing Team that plays in China's team league Tournaments?" "Team league tournaments?" "like we have in soccer" "China has a Go league" "I've heard some teams have contracts with top Korean players" "I get it" "What?" "Now that he's retired" "Touya Sansei isn't tied down by the Japanese Go tournament schedule" "The deal with the Chinese team isn't that much money for a Japanese pro" "But the attraction must lie in being able to play the best in the world for Touya Sansei" "Yoshikawa" "Yes" "I must call Touya Sansei" "Yang Hai" "Did you hear?" "Japan's Touya Sansei has joined the Beijing Team" "Do you know it?" "I know, it's all over the internet" "This is gonna be a big boost to Beijing's Team" "The league is going to get even better" "Wang Shin and I..." "the Shanghai Team better stay sharp" "You sure are excited You're a big Touya Kouya fan" "Hell yeah!" "He's the closest to the Hand of God" "Hand of God?" "Yeah" "The Hand of God will be born in here" "In computer?" "Yeah" "They say it will be another 1 00 years before a computer will be stronger than a human" "I don't need 1 00 years" "We found a project sponsor" "I'll finally be able to build it" "We've already started inputting data" "I get it" "Because you waste your time doing that" "Your team is so weak" "Hey!" "That has nothing to do with anything" "At least my personal winning percentage is..." "Worse than mine" "It's no good" "I can't get through to Touya Sansei" "I've checked numerous Chinese websites and it appears to be true" "I saw Akira this morning but he didn't say anything" "Did he know about this or not" "But how often will Touya Sansei have to be in China?" "How many games a year do that play?" "I better do some research" "Weekly Go will have to follow this" "It'll be tough" "Things change" "Right, Amano?" "Amano..." "Yoshikawa" "Yes" "Is it just me or are there some big shifts in the Go world?" "The Go world..." "The whole Go world..." "Touya..." "I can play anytime" "I want to play against you" "Hikaru NO Go" "Did you see Isumi?" "He's like a different person" "He looks much more confident" "He just defeated Murakami and now Tsujioka" "He won't be handing over the throne to you youngsters yet" "You say that, but Ogata Sensei already has two titles, Kuwahara Sensei" "Heh" "I can't believe Touya Akira has made it into the Honinbou league" "He was only a beginner dan not long ago" "Touya Koyo Sensei has signed with China's Beijing team" "Don't you a big change coming?" "The GO world... the entire GO world..." "Maybe there'll be... a whole new wave with Touya Akira taking the lead..." "(Shindo VS Touya)" "Hi, Shindo" "I thought you don't have any games today" "What are you doing here?" "Mr. Kurata" "Nothing, really" "I'm here for Morishita Sensei's study group" "I saw the schedule for the first prelim Meijin Tournament" "You're playing Touya Akira" "Yeah, thanks to you" "Thanks to me?" "The reason that Touya Akira is in the prelim again this year is because you beat him in the second prelim last year" "Except for the Meijin Tournament, he has been on a winning streak" "I have no chance of playing against him" "Touya Akira is a top plyaer" "But he's really busy He doesn't have the time to play me" "I'm gonna go" "Oh yeah, Shindo If you beat Touya Akira, bring the board I gave you last time" "The board?" "I only did half of it" "If you beat Touya, I'll finish signing it for you" "Huh?" "That board?" "God, where did I put it?" "A special service just for you" "Think of it as a form of encouragement" "Encouragement..." "Um, I don't think I need any" "You don't need any encouragement?" "It's Touya Akira Are you that confident?" "No... it's not about my confidence" "I hope they decide on a date soon" "I'm looking forward to the result See you later" "Decide on a date soon..." "Easier said than done" "Oh well..." "The study group is more important" "I guess he has conquered the ghost in him" "Shindo has improved a lot" "I don't know what he's been doing all this time," "but I'm certain he's conquered his ghost" "I lost" "He's good Shindo has really gotten better" "This finished me here" "My setup just crumbled to pieces" "There wasn't anything I could do" "Shindo, keep this up" "Yes" "Saeki, if you keep fooling around, you're not even gonna beat Ashihara" "Yes" "And Waya..." "Ah, one bad apple spoils the bunch" "What do you mean by that?" "If you don't speed up, soon Shindo will be better than you" "I know" "Shindo, play me next" "Okay." "Please" "Touya..." "I'm ready for you" "I'm home" "You're back, Hikaru" "The Japan GO Assocation sent you a notice" "A notice?" "Finally, it's set" "Two weeks from now..." "Touya" "Touya Akira's kipu from the Honinbou tournament" "Our battle is just beginning" "Let's play, Touya" "The battle won't start until we play" "The Sai you wanted to play... isn't here anymore" "But you can still find him in my GO" "I don't know if you'll be able to see it" "I can only make myself stronger, so that I can play against you" "You should be happy, right?" "My midterm grades have gone down again" "Did you get your grades yet?" "No, not yet" "Our teacher must have forgotten What a slacker" "Bye, Akari" "Bye" "Hikaru" "Oh, Akari" "You're playing Touya Akira tomorrow" "How did you know?" "I saw it on "Weekly GO"" "They print the game schedules" "You're not nervous already, are you?" "Why do you say that?" "Because you look scary" "The game with Touya Akira means a lot to me" "Akari..." "Do you have time?" "Huh?" "Why?" "You wanna play a game?" "I think it'll calm my nerves a bit" "Huh?" "Of course, I'd love to" "Okay." "Come by my house later" "What is it?" "Hikaru..." "You seem different" "Really?" "Yeah" "I'm sure" "Maybe it's because you're a pro GO player now" "You seem a lot more mature" "Well, you've changed too" "Huh?" "Really?" "How so?" "You're shorter" "That's because you got taller" "You're mean, Hikaru" "Be careful" "Yeah, I'm gonna go" "I'm leaving" "Saeki, you're up first today" "Yeah" "I'm playing Ashihara from Touya's group" "If you lose this game, Morishita Sensei will get real pissed" "Waya, stop putting more pressure on me" "Good morning, Saeki" "It's Ashihara" "Morning, Waya" "Morning" "You..." "Saeki, I'm counting on you today" "Hey, Saeki" "What?" "Is this rivalry between the Morishita and Touya groups just one-sided on our part?" "Don't say that." "It's taboo, Waya" "Waya." "Saeki" "Shindo" "Good morning" "Good morning" "I got a call from Isumi" "He said he passed the Pro Exam" "Huh?" "Really?" "But I thought it's not over yet" "He's undefeated so far" "So he's a sure pass after winning yesterday's game" "That's great" "And he even said to me, "Go easy on me, Senpai"" "Looks like I gotta work harder" "Yeah, me too" "Isumi passed?" "Mashiba" "It took him long enough" "Mashiba, you..." "Once he becomes a pro, he'll rise quickly" "He's got what it takes" "There are new faces every year" "I hate that" "Waya, I'm not losing today" "Are you playing Mashiba?" "Yeah" "You're playing Touya, right?" "Yeah" "I don't know" "Touya..." "Ochi, what were you and Touya chatting about?" "He asked me if won all my games" "That's it?" "And I said that" "It's nothing compared to how you got into the Honinbou league" "Then I asked him..." """Was it an easy win against Shindo?""" "He must have said of course" "Right now, all he cares about are the top players" "What did Touya say?" "He said, ""I won't know until I play""" "When Shindo became an Insei, there was a rumor saying that he was Touya's rival" "Everybody thought it was a joke then" "But now, it seems like it's true" "We have to step up too" "Yeah" "I'm going to fight from now on" "Waya, you're playing me next week, right?" "That will be fun" "Jerk" "Don't steal my line" "Looks like I gotta get into it" "Oh, Saeki, are you ready to fight?" "Touya" "Finally, we meet again" "The last time we played was at the GO club tournament" "It's been two years and four months" "Has it been that long?" "Yeah" "It has been a long time" "I read about your match with Zama Sensei on "Weekly GO"" "You were close" "It was good in the beginning, but the difference was too great" "He's a former Ouza" "Not an easy opponent" "But I won't be the same the next time we play" "I saw your strength when you played against Zama Sensei and Hagiwara 9-dan" "It's my turn to show you what I'm made of" "I haven't been idle for these 28 months either" "Please" "Please" "Just wait and see, Touya" "Right of the upper star" "That's fast" "This is not like a game with five hours of allotted time" "This is speed GO" "Looks like he can't wait to play this game" "He's ignoring my move by going to another corner" "He doesn't want to give me any chance to think" "That's good" "We'll jump right into the fight" "You're not the only one who can't wait" "Me too" "Hikaru NO Go" "Let's play, Touya" "The battle won't start until we play" "The Sai you wanted to play... isn't here anymore" "But you can still find him in my GO" "I don't know if you'll be able to see it" "I can only make myself stronger, so that I can play against you" "Touya" "Finally, we meet again" "The last time we played was at the GO club tournament" "It's been two years and four months" "Has it been that long?" "Yeah" "It has been a long time" "It's time for me to show you what I'm made of" "(In Your Heart)" "If you're going after that corner, I'll pinch you from below" "Then the game will develop quickly" "We'll jump right into a complicated battle" "Finally I get to play against you" "Ever since the GO tournament..." "No" "Sai played the first half of that game" "Touya" "Today is our first real match together" "So that's your strategy" "Okay, I'll cut you off here" "I knew it" "I'll go under him" "He read my move" "He has the same strength as an upper dan player" "It's..." "This is Shindo's kipu, Yun Sensei?" "That's right" "I ran into him playing at a GO salon" "Both the black and the white are of pro level, but..." "Especially the white..." "White is Shindo" "Black is a Korean student, Hon Suyon" "I've been wanting to show this to you" "I know Shindo's performance at the tournament let you down" "But as you see, this is him now" "Hello..." "It's me" "How was the Pro Exam?" "Um..." "It's decided?" "All three?" "No more playoffs?" "That means Waya defeated Fukui and Shindo defeated Ochi, right?" "All you look at are the people at the top" "You probably don't realize there are also good players at the bottom" "The bottom?" "Maybe not the bottom, but right behind you" "You and him are the only ones who make me feel threatened" "And that's Shindo Hikaru, the new pro player" "Watch out for that kid" "I've always wanted to know your strength and now I know" "You're just as I expected..." "I'm sure" "You are... my eternal rival" "Hello, publishing" "Yes, hi" "Thanks" "This Korean kids' name" "How do you pronounce it?" "Hon Like Hong Kong, I guess" "You mean the kid who defeated Kim Kang-Il 9-dan, right?" "Suyon." "His name's Suyon" "Hon Suyon, 1 4-years-old" "Another amazing rookie has appeared in Korea" "And there's the 1 6-year-old Ko Yeong-Ha, the current record holder" "Korea has some really young talents" "Hon Suyon." "Ko Yeong-Ha..." "They will all probably be there" "Be there?" "Where?" "This is just a rumor, but..." "Have you heard of the Japan-China-Korea Jr." "Cup?" "China." "Japan." "Korea" "It's a group tournament targeted at players under the age of 1 8" "It's sponsored by this large corporation" "Japan-China-Korea..." "Jr." "Cup..." "Under 1 8?" "No way" "We don't have any players that young to compete with China and Korea" "There's Touya Akira, isn't there?" "Yeah" "Come on, Touya Akira can't do it alone" "What do you think of Ochi?" "Ochi..." "I hear he hasn't lost a game Right?" "Yes He's 1 4, if I remember correctly" "They have high hopes for him" "But it'll be tough going against Chinese and Korean players" "I think Touya is the only person we can count on" "It won't be 1 00%, but at least..." "There's Shindo" "Huh?" "We should count Shindo in" "I see Sai's shadow... in Shindo" "I can vaguely see that other person... within you" "That's..." "The shadow that I've been chasing... all this time" "There's Shindo" "Shindo..." "Isn't he the kid that ditched all the games?" "Do you mean him, Mr. Amano?" "Yeah" "I think Shindo is as talented as Touya" "You think..." "Touya Koyo, Kuwahara Honinbou, and Ogata 1 0-dan" "All these experienced players are all keeping their eyes on Shindo" "How Touya Sensei chose to play against Shindo in the Begginer Dan Series?" "But didn't he play real bad that time?" "Yeah, but strangely..." "Their opinion of him hasn't changed" "Ever since I found out that Touya thinks of Shindo as a rival," "I've become a fan of Shindo Hikaru as well" "Huh?" "Even Touya Akira?" "Then that's something" "Oh yeah, Kuwahara Sensei thinks highly of Shindo" "I've heard that" "Oh yeah, I saw Kurata reading "Weekly GO" a while ago..." "Oh, Shindo Hikaru and Touya Akira's match is this week" "I remember that's what he said" "Could it be that Kurata is..." "Are you saying Kurata is also keeping an eye on Shindo?" "How's he doing so far?" "Eight straight wins" "I think that's good" "I like to see the young players challenging the old" "It's not that simple" "Those old pros won't go down easily" "But Ogata Sensei has already had a win and Kurata is close behind" "No, I'm still putting my bets on Touya" "I believe in his strength He'll surpass Ogata Sensei and Kurata" "Touya and Shindo's match is today" "When I think about the future... my heart starts pumping" "Mr. Amano..." "Not just Touya..." "And Shindo..." "And with Ochi and Waya..." "They will change the future" "Yes... with these new blood" "It's the beginning of a new era" "And Touya Akira will take the lead" "Didn't you say Shindo is just as good as Touya?" "And then Japan will be back on the world stage again" "Right, Mr. Amano?" "How nice And our sales will go way up" "Yeah, but... no one can predict the future" "That's enough dreaming for today" "Time to eat..." "This is going real fast" "What a complicated game" "It's a tough game against Touya Akira and he's not losing yet" "He's something all right" "Saeki, can I join you guys?" "It's too boring eating alone" "And Akira never eats until after the game" "Let's go." "Let's go" "Wait, Ashihara..." "Are the Touya people looking down on us?" "So we go into the break after that hand by Touya..." "He seems to be ignoring the upper right hand attack instead focusing on the lower left..." "Well then," "I must go after white's weakness..." "Touya will be able to connect, but if I just strengthen the middle..." "The bottom left is not so bad, but what should I do at the top?" "I'm at a disadvantage..." "No, it doesn't look good, but it's too early to say" "Ah, it's time to eat" "Touya, aren't you going to lunch?" "There's no time." "I'm gonna go first" "He's not gonna eat?" "Sai..." "Playing you reminds me of Sai" "Touya..." "I'm not Sai..." "Unfortunately" "You're..." "Touya..." "He's the other you" "There's another person within you" "The Shindo that I first met" "It was Sai" "Touya..." "There's another person... inside you..." "Hikaru NO Go" "Not just Touya..." "There's Shindo" "And with Ochi and Waya..." "They will change the future" "When I think about the future... my heart starts pumping" "(The Reminiscent Smile)" "Touya..." "The person I played against twice at the GO salon..." "It was Sai..." "I know you best" "So only I know..." "Only I know... there's another person... inside you" "Touya..." "Ah, please forget what I just said" "I'm talking rubbish" "Touya found out about Sai" "The Sai only I knew until now..." "Sai..." "Touya finally found you" "You know that?" "No..." "All you are is the GO you play" "That will never change" "And so that's enough" "Touya..." "All I am is the GO I play" "Touya..." "You're right" "Because Sai is in the GO I play" "If you think that's enough" "Maybe one day, I'll tell you all about it" "Shindo..." "Ah" "What do you mean?" "Huh?" "What?" "You are hiding something from me" "Tell me" "Tell you?" "Why should I tell you?" "Didn't you just say that it's enough that all I am is the GO I play?" "Yes, but..." "Well then, what is there to ask?" "But you said you'd tell me" "I said "some day"!" "A long time from now!" "Idiot!" "Idi..." "I'm home" "You're back" "I'm beat" "The game ended early, but we were discussing it forever" "The result..." "It doesn't matter to me I don't understand it anyway" "All I care about is your health" "Your dad's taking a bath He'll be out soon" "No, I don't want to take a bath now" "Then how about something to eat?" "No, I'm gonna go to bed" "Strange" "These shoes..." "Oh, this is a dream" "Sometimes I can tell that I'm dreaming" "If it's a dream, then there must be something nice..." "I wouldn't be surprised if..." "Sai..." "Sai..." "Finally, you're in my dream" "Sai, you know what?" "I played Touya Akira today" "It's the first prelim of the Meijin Tournament" "It was a great game" "Even though I lost" "But we could have played a hundred, a thousand more games" "Touya invited me to his GO salon for a game or two" "Don't tell Morishita Sensei though" "Oh yeah Isumi passed the Pro Exam" "And Mitani also entered the Meijin Tournament" "So much has happened since you left" "I have so much... to say to you..." "Sai..." "Why did you leave?" "I thought you wanted to play GO" "So why did you leave?" "I don't understand" "What were you thinking when you left?" "Were you sad?" "Or were you smiling like you are now?" "I hope... you were smiling" "You know what?" "Touya said that he saw another person in me today" "I got all nervous" "But I was happy, because he finally saw you" "Sai..." "Sai..." "Don't go." "Say something" "Don't leave again" "Sai..." "Sai..." "Sai..." "Hikaru, it's past seven already Don't you need to go to school?" "Yes, I'll be right down" "Do you have everything?" "Yes" "I'm going to a GO salon after school I'll be back before dinner" "If I try to save it, my setup will crumble" "If I play this hand, it'll be better not to exchange this" "There's a crowd there Akira Sensei's playing, huh?" "Who's he playing?" "Shindo beginner dan He just made pro this year" "What?" "Does Shindo come here often?" "Yeah" "But only recently" "They seem to get along well" "Well, I guess" "Not good" "Looks like it's gonna start again" "Break, everybody." "Time to go" "Again?" "Again" "What do you mean by "Oh, I get it now"?" "It's so obvious." "Don't you see it?" "What is that supposed to mean?" "You didn't see my hand, either" "And this one before that" "No Do you know how many times you've said ""Oh, I get it now""?" "What a heated debate" "You're wrong" "What?" "It's not the third time It's the fourth time" "How bored are you?" "You're keeping track of that?" "What about you?" "You said ""I see"" six times" "And you were impressed with what I said" "Come on I didn't say it six times" "You did too" "Did not" "I'm going home" "Here's your bag" "See" "They're fighting like a couple of seven year olds" "Shindo is just a beginner dan and he's playing Akira Sensei who's in the Honinbou league" "How arrogant of him" "I'm just a 3-dan" "No matter how good you are, everyone starts at beginner dan" "And you climb up slowly with time and practice" "The ranking and the strength are two different things" "Don't underestimate Shindo because he's a beginner dan" "I thought they were arguing" "Yeah" "I can't wait to play against higher dan players" "Who are you playing today?" "*kanji* 3-dan" "It's my third game in the Honinbou first prelim" "Touya is already playing against 9-dan players and I'm just a beginner dan" "Not just the Honinbou league It's the same with any game" "You conquer each stage starting at the bottom" "Conquer each stage" "Time to eat" "Shindo, are you going out?" "I just made fried pork chop" "Yeah" "It's fried pork chop" "Hey..." "Why is he still a beginner dan?" "Why is Shindo still a beginner dan?" "Some guy ditched every single game from spring to summer" "Did you hear about that?" "Yeah" "I heard" "That person is Shindo" "He lost far more than he was winning" "Even though he won them back later, he was still a long way from climbing up" "So he's still a beginner dan for now" "For now?" "With his strength... he's definitely the best beginner dan" "Shindo..." "When the black did that, "sticking" was just a response" "That guy was slow" "That's why used ""sticking""." "That hand..." "The timing was just right" "Waya" "Shindo..." "What's that..." "This?" "I got in at the store" "You... bought that?" "Yeah" "The game today" "I plan to finish it in one bite" "Sai..." "I want to play you" "One day, I'll get to that heavenly realm" "(The end)"
