"Soul of Go!" "I have to start my match from tryout for the Match of the Pro Exam finals." "Funtin has give up his identity of lnsei." "Perhaps I've reached the utmost." "Right, Waya, do you know...?" "several pros of the Nine Stars Club... are planning to communicate with the Chinese pros." "So what?" "It's heard that lsumi-san would go with them together." "Isumi-san?" "Ep. 65 lsumi-san's Go!" "It needs to take about 4 hours from Tokyo to Peking." "will we need to change some buses?" "How long will it take to the Chinese Go club?" "About 30 minutes." "What?" "Is it the fiirst time for Isumi-san and you to come to China?" "But Isumi-san, when you left the Nine Stars Club last year, ... I thought you would give up to be a pro." "Why did lsumi-san give up?" "With Isumi-san's skill, he won't lose to those pros." "I didn't say he has no the skill." "I'm only worried about that he won't want to play with a bad mood." "I want to calm down myself." "And adjust my mood, then start out!" "Sorry to have kept you worried." "Isumi-san-sensei will invite you to join this amity matches." "That means he's affirmed your skill." "Yes, even it's only for repaying to your painstaking, ..." "I must pass the test this year." "Geez!" "You're 1 9 this year, right?" "So when I pass the test and become a pro, I'm going to be 20." "You're you, Isumi-san is Isumi-san." "What did you mean?" "How many bouts will you play for this time?" "If it's three days and two nights, ..." "till now, I've done all what I can do." "In two months, the tryout will begin!" "In this amity matches, ..." "I'lI treat it as the Match of the Pro Exam finals." "I give up!" "This skill of you is really strange." "Only watching could make you to know that it wouId be taken." "Eh?" "Ah..." "It couldn't be retrieved in the end." "He's very powerful..." "You played not too bad." "Don't be too upset!" "all right, go to have a meal, and change your mood!" "Not too bad?" "Eh?" "I'm very unsatisfiied with what I played just now." "So I can't calm down." "The more to be thinking I couldn't lose, the worse I showed. I'm ilI-affected." "I didn't exert my true power at all." "With exerting your power, would you win?" "Forget it, let's look forward to the bout in the afternoon." "lsumi-san, come on quickly!" "I've practiced the motion to put the chessmen... in this park, right?" "Sai helped me to find a little stone." "Right, just like this one." "He told me to play with it." "I played with much courage." "But the little stone flew away..." "Sai..." "Shindou!" "Waya?" "What are you doing here?" "What..." "And you, why are you here?" "I'm planning to go to your home!" "Morishita-sensei got angry!" "You didn't join the researching meeting, and missed the matches." "Didn't you connect with anyone, did you?" "Did you meet any problem or only get in a bad mood?" "Say something!" "Only keeping silent, who will know what you're thinking!" "What can I say?" "To say that I don't care about the Go?" "Or to say that I only want to see Sai?" "Shindou!" "I've moved out to live on my own." "Those Insel friends of mine come to my home usually." "Welcome you to come too!" "Thanks anyway." "Shindou, only you are marking time!" "I played three bouts at Dachuco." "Two wins, one loss." "Ochi played four bouts." "VoIe!" "Honda, Kong and the others, ... are all trying their best to prepare for the test of this year." "So does Isumi-san, it's heard." "He's gone to China to communicate with those pros." "Has lsumi-san gone to China?" "Yes." "Shindou, it's so hard for us to defeat lsumi-san to pass last year." "He's bound to pass this year." "Do you want to make default when Isumi-san gets into the l-go circles?" "Won't you feel ashamed?" "You want to play l-go, very much, right?" "I go first, let's begin!" "Four of 1 6, star station." "Eh?" "You've gotten the idea to go the second step, right?" "Just tell me, what's your second step in your mind?" "Don't drive me!" "Shindou!" "You bastard!" "Three days and two nights will go very soon!" "After we go to visit Lau-sensei, we'Il go back!" "There's still time left, let's go to visit Tian'an Men!" "I'd rather go shopping." "It can't be!" "Do you also want to go shopping in China?" "lsumi-san, how about you?" "What's wrong with you, Isumi-san?" "I'm sorry to say this since we're going to be back." "But I want to stay here one more day." "I want to play with that man one more bout." "Isumi-san..." "Don't, go shopping with us!" "No, I'm okay by myself." "You're talking about that Chao Si?" "Chao Si!" "I did win him." "But very breathtaking." "He's so young, but he played very well." "So the standard of the Chinese Go club can't be despised." "You're right!" "Isumi-san, don't you know yet...?" "Everyone here is the hand-picked professional ACE." "In every province of China..." "probably like the counties in Japan, ... there're the pros." "Only those who were recognized among them, ... came to Peking to accept the special training day after night." "They do everything inside." "In the Go club?" "Yes." "Of course, those who can earn more salary or have gotten married..." "would rent a house around there." "So for now only those young persons of tens or twenties live in there." "About 30." "Hah..." "That kid is also a hand-picked pro." "So even he's so young, he lives there too." "He's just such a special kid." "Anyway how does he go to school?" "He seems not to go to school." "We've arranged the time for him to go to school, but he's a pro after all." "What're you talking about?" "Lee-Sensei, how are you?" "Nothing..." "In fact it's just that he wants to play one more bout with Chao Si." "With Chao Si?" "He lost to Chao Si yesterday, but he's ilI-affected." "Please help him." "lsumi-san did played very well." "But his aggressiveness was ceased by Chao Si." "I can understand his feeling." "No matter how special that kid is, ..." "I can't go back Japan with such a ilI-affected mood." "I need the confiidence to take part in this year's exam." "So it is..." "But Chao Si isn't in these days!" "What?" "There's a match in another city, he went to join it." "He'Il come back in several days." "Right, Isumi-san..." "Just stay here to communicate with the others until he comes back, okay?" "Lau-Sensei?" "Here?" "This training hall is just the school of the pros." "There're people coming every day." "You can play with them." "I can understand your feeling of losing to Chao Si." "But you must be patient." "Lee-sensei, how do you think of that?" "I welcome anyone who really like playing Go, no matter who he is." "You can rent a room in the hotel nearby." "And you can come here everyday." "Isumi-san?" "lsumi-san, what's your plan?" "It's beyond my expectation, ..." "but maybe I can learn much more things." "Okay, so thank you very much." "Did you hear the status about here?" "There're many Go proficient gathering here." "But the rule is very strict." "If your achievement is not good, you'Il be driven out right away!" "Who has been chosen have some skill, but there're still someone marking time." "Lee-sensei is their coacher in charge of their lives and Go skill." "This is just the training hall." "Research the new chess manual, drill the chess manual, or practice playing." "In one word it's a training hall for the pros." "Almost of them are young people." "Is this the Chinese Pros Researching Union?" "Nothing terrible!" "I've ever played with the pros at the Nine Stars club." "Someone will come to practice from 8:1 5 on in the morning." "Eh?" "Do you want to slip off again?" "Once I'm not in, you'lI slack off." "I didn't want to slip off, just go to toilet." "still want to cheat me?" "Waya?" "Waya..." "Ah, I'm sorry." "Who's Waya?" "A friend of mine in Japan." "They're too alike." "Lee-sensei, what Waya?" "He's talking about me?" "Let me introduce you to each other." "Mr. Isumi-san who came from Japan." "He'Il stay here to study for a while." "Isumi-san?" "Japanese Pro?" "No, he's a future Pro." "Nice... niceto meetyou ." "lsumi-san, Mr. lsumi-san." "Does that Waya have the same navel as I have?" "Lan Pin" "Right, it's time for the lunch break." "Wait, Lan Pin!" "What a troublesome kid!" "Lan Pin is not very interested in practicing." "Lee-sensei is worried about him very much, so he blames him everyday." "He seems very young. ls he a pro too?" "Of course." "When he came here last year, he's only 1 1 ." "Lunch time!" "Let's go to have lunch too!" "all right!" "During you're here, you can eat at the ground floor." "The others nearly eat there too." "After the lunch, you can go back to the hotel." "There're two hours for the lunch break." "Enjoy it." "Yes!" "Do your best!" "It's not very long, but if you devote yourself to it, ..." "you'lI gain much." "Yes!" "Lan Pin..." "No, I can't always regard you as the small Waya." "This afternoon is for thinking over and playing for one and a half hours." "Let's do it by the style of league matches." "I'lI take a view of your skill." "also including Isumi-san." "He belongs to the low-dan group, 1 dan to 3dan." "Who's free can play with him." "Lee-sensei, I want to play with lsumi-san." "Lan Pin?" "lsumi-san, how about you?" "Lan Pin..." "No matter how, I won't lose to such a little kid!" "please advice!" "I looked down on him too much." "I must think he's only a brat in my heart." "But Lan Pin is also one of the chosen pros." "Isumi-san, you're too rash!" "This going is very poor." "It seems the white has ceased the black's attack." "But it became to fight at close quarter." "That's harmful for the white." "Do you think you can stop me with this going?" "You looked down on me too much!" "I won't lose to such a man like lsumi-san!" "Do your best, have a good practice." "Lan Pin" "He's laughing..." "laughingat me ?" "How about him?" "Not very well." "really?" "Spread upward from here, second to turn downwards." "really, there're also the black chessmen blocking upwards and on the right." "No matter what idea I get, there's no chance for me to speak." "all the people here stay here from year to year?" "Among the other chosen pros, ..." "From morning till night..." "I thought I couId learn many things since I stay here." "But if it's only a shock to my confidence...?" "No, being ilI-affected is not bad." "If that becomes full of remorse, then what?" "Tens or twenties years old, the hand-picked pros." "There're also many proficient who won't lose to the high-dan in Japan." "Among these people..." "Isumi-san" "Yes!" "would you Iike to play a quick bout of 1 0 seconds with me?" "Ah, okay... I've played the 1 0-second Go when I was in the Nine Stars club." "Rather than the insight, it needs more much intuition." "please advice!" "He seems in the same age as me." "But his skill is so powerful... that he won't lose to the 9dan in Japan." "I give up!" "Eh, you give up?" "Too fast..." "What?" "When the black gets approaching, if the white escapes, ... then this district will end up." "So the white can only exchange it with Sever." "black is latter, but its status is steady, that's advantaged." "I never thought there's still this going..." "I gave up too early..." "Tidy it up!" "Let me do it." "I'Il challenge you sometime." "really too poor..." "What's your name?" "It's heard that you came from Japan?" "I've been in the room for the whole day and heard many things about you." "I'm Yamhi, nice to meet you." "I'm lsumi-san." "What's wrong with you?" "Seems very exhausted." "Where do you live?" "The hotel nearby?" "My room is a double room." "There's another available bed." "would you Iike to come?" "My room number is 303." "But I heard a foreigner can't live here." "It doesn't matter, nobody knows?" "!" "Lee-sensei will go back at 5." "You needn't pay the rent." "No, thanks anyway." "Why?" "I can live alone in the hotel." "And I won't stay here too long..." "really?" "What a pity!" "originally I wanted you to talk about sth. about the Japanese entertainment" "But you're so interested in Go, ..." "perhaps you don't know much about the entertainment, right?" "Would you like to play with me?" "No, it's enough for today." "Is it?" "It seems that you're really very tired." "In the Match of the Pro Exam Finals last year..." "I lost to Shindou, Fu and Waya continuously." "But just the match with Ochi made me to stand up again." "My Go is just my prop." "I believe my own power." "At that time I did do so." "But can I think like this again here?" "Can my Go sustain me anymore?" "The most powerful primary school student is just him, right?" "Yep, he's Touya." "He's that famous Touya's son." "He won't come to the amateurish matches." "It's heard that Touya is very powerful, is it true?" "Why don't you play with him by yourself?" "That's just my plan." "hello, every televiewer" "Long time no see, I'm Sai" "Another soul of Go will be played today" "The story about Touya met Hikaru fiirst" "Right, at that time you were in Grade 6" "Do you remember?" "Right, I beat Touya with foudroyant chess skill" "I'Il re-appear that inning" "Isn't it OK?" "Then of course I ..." "I ..." "I have no chance to appear this time, right?" "I'm too childish" "Episode 66 The Encounter of Fate ls this bag Touya's?" "Yeah, sorry, I'Il put it aside at once" "There's no scratching" "My grandson's in Grade 6 too, but his bag's tattered lt's like Touya's work-style" "ScrupuIous!" "He's not messed outside" "No wonder..." "Give me it, thank you" "Where's Touya?" "Can't that get small fly?" "How to say?" "If I play needle, it'Il be more advantageous" "But if The black side puts up, it'lI not be good to the white side" "Maybe" "If I play it at the center directly, it'Il be good" "Please drink, you two" "Mr. Luyun, may I ask you a question?" "Of course" "will Touya march to the professional chess circles next year?" "Oops?" "The responses..." "Won'tyouplan to join in the professional chess test?" "You must pass it with your strength" "Right?" "Mr. Luyun" "What?" "After all, even Mr. Luyun passed it too" "Miss Sihe, no kidding!" "In fact you may test it this year" "I can't understand why you don't want to do I only want to energize my strength more..." "Is it vapid?" "No, no... absolutely lt's hit by me?" "Vapid?" "What's the matter?" "Because there's no chess player who can be Hikaru's opponent and the same age" "Of course it's vapid to play chess like this" "I have some friends like this, so we may interchange each other" "What you said is useless" "There's no the chess player who can be Touya's opponent and the same age I don't think I need opponents..." "In either case, my father and Mr. Ogata will admit me" "Then what about me, Touya?" "Mr. Luyun is my friend" "Sorry to trouble you" "It's troublesome..." "Right" "You'Il go down to Touya..." "I only worry about it..." "is it OK to go to join in the professional chess player like this" "Or I need an opponent just like what Mr. Luyun said?" "I give up now" "I make you disappointed..." "Sorry, I said my teacher gave up 4 chequers, but I failed fiinaIly" "The needle is a faulty stroke in painting" "If you use it to energize the center, it'lI be no problem" "Yeah, really, lf here's cut, the chess manual will be changed quickly" "Excuse me" "Miss, I said that before, I've not drunk this" "You, I'd like to drink banana succus, please go to change another one" "Yeah, sorry, I'Il go to take it at once I'm really sorry, that Miss asked for leave today" "I heard of that you got the prize of the Famous Children Contest" "You're really great" "In fact that kind of stuff is unmeaning" "Unmeaning?" "impossible!" "You wan more than 2, 000 children of the preliminary heat and got the prize, that's the fiirst prize I hear about his rumour after the ceremony" "His?" "Touya" "He'd be the best pupil now" "Yeah, he's Touya, right?" "He's Touya Meren's son, he won't come to join in the sparetime match" "Is it because Yusen's goal is only professional player?" "Yusen?" "No, no" "Then why won't he come to join in the sparetime match?" "I heard of that he worried about that if he appeared, others would give up" "What?" "True of false?" "He's really boring" "He dare not to appear to trumpet himself" "I can't believe his strength" "The son of Touya Meren..." "I remember that the chess place's managed by Touya Meren" "Touya Meren?" "Perhaps his son often go there..." "Make yourself please" "Thank you." "Where's it?" "What?" "Where's that chess place?" "Proprieter, who's that boy?" "He's the sonny of the most important client" "He heard of that I'd Iike to play chess, so he let his son come here every week lt's a kind of splurge too" "Hey" "Mom, I know, I'lI go to the remediation class" "please tell Dad, don't forget my pocket money" "Right, I'lI go back after I finish the chess, Bye!" "welcome" "Oops?" "Kiddy" "Who's he?" "He?" "You said Touya?" "He's Touya" "Yes" "It's just him" "How about the charge here?" "500 yen per child" "Here you are" "Thank you I heard that Touya's very powerful, is it true?" "Of course it's true, don't you believe it?" "Maybe" "Then why not have a match with him?" "I just want to do that" "Touya" "What?" "is there a guest?" "Yeah, he said he wanted to play with you, OK?" "No problem, how about your skill?" "I'd won in the Famous children Contest" "well, it's great" "Didn't you take part in it?" "I come to defeat you" "The Famous child Contest is meaningless" "They won't accept me unless I defeat you lt's a big difficulty, poor kid lt's better for Touya to be a professional player l'lI pour some tea" "Damn it, how dare he pay no attention to that?" "OK" "I'm Soshu" "If I win you you'd tell others about it, understand?" "OK, I'Il do that Soshu, right?" "Let's begin, I'lI go first, OK?" "What's the matter with this guy?" "It seems he's really nothing" "You go first" "OK" "Nice to meet you" "Nice to meet you" "He's careless" "I won't be defeated by him" "His expression is different from before" "It's better to place it here than small fly lt's much better to Knock" "No wonder I dare not to do that, I'm not familiar with it" "Hey, Touya is playing with a child" "Mr. Luyun is younger than 20 In my eyes, they're both children" "What?" "His skill... is just so so" "I lost" "You won't win Touya if you always surround it" "Mr. Luyun?" "If I can enter the White's field, I can have a violent battle against him" "But you're very strong now" "You found a wrong antagonist I'lI be back" "I can go on" "Thank you" "Thank... you" "Who's he?" "What's his... name?" "I forgot it" "You'd better become a professional player" "Oh, I'lI think about it" "You were not very rigorous before, so I could have some chance I've got out from the bad habit now" "No, from the previous form, it can bring a priority I haven't played so well for a long time" "Very soon, the distance is shortened" "well... I hope you'Il become a great player" "Dad" "Dad... at last" "It's you, Touya" "hello, Miss Sihe" "Sorry to trouble you again" "You're welcome, woops?" "What's up?" "It seems you're very glad, what's happened?" "Dad praised me for my skill this morning" "really, isn't it very common?" "No, he hasn't done that for a long time" "But Mr. Touya is always proud of you" "really?" "Of course, so work hard, and don't let him down" "Dad has a great hope on me and Mr. Luyun too" "Right, I'd believe my skill" "This isn't self-proud I'lI get to the top of the circle just like my father and help more new players" "I'd forget those meaningless upsets and move forward without any hesitation" "Without any hesitation..." "to be a professional player..." "What, there's a kid obviously" "Can I play with him?" "But he is..." "Do you want to find a opponent?" "I can have a match with you" "My name is Touya" "My name is Shindou Hikaru, a student of 6grade" "Lepin, how come you lost to him?" "Come on, lsumi-san" "Sit down, and let's have a match" "Let me see your power" "I won't let you live here until you win Lepin" "Get out at once" "will you let me out..." "Yamhi?" "Did you think you could fetch up me if you used this shape?" "You look down on me." "I will win Isumi-san guy." "Yesteryear's the pro exam after I lost with Shindou, Fu and Waya" "I could requicken after I played with Ochi" "My game is my bracing." "I am confidence." "And I get it at that time." "But if I could think it like this when I am here." "will my game continue to support me?" "Episode 67, Isumi-san accept racket." "I can't give up." "If I haven't confidence and go back Japan like this" "I won't need join to exam" "And I have no face to Waya, Shindou, and Ochi" "Isumi-san" "Yes... your call" "call... me?" "Thank you." "Hey?" "Seylang" "Dad?" "If you want to stay in China, you should give me a call." "If Yinjin didn't call me, we will worry you." "Sorry, I forgot." "Because I have more thing..." "It's nothing if you stay there." "How long will you stay?" "Yinjin said, may be around three or four days, right?" "Seylang I will stay here till the pro exam" "Yes, two months." "Two months?" "If I lose my confidence here I must requicken here." "Otherwise I can't front pro exam... no,it shouldbepro'sworld ." "Yamhi, how are you..." "You have come here." "I refused your suggestion before, but..." "you could lie on that bed." "OK, thank you." "Thank you." "Is there a chequer in the room?" "Yes." "I cancelled the room of restaurant and came here, I am smart." "There is chequer, I could practice at night." "You are active." "I put the chequer here, you could do if you want to rant shape." "Thank you." "I Iike play computer more." "lsumi-san, do you know play computer?" "No, I am off my beat." "really?" "How long will you stay?" "Two months." "really, who did you play with?" "A child call Lan Pin, I lost." "Lan Pin?" "You lost he?" "That game, I expend one and a half hours to think over" "As if he scouted at me at all times." "Chut, that guy, you should give him a lesson." "You should let him scouted at you." "That guy." "Isumi-san, come here." "Sit down, Iet's play." "Let me test your strength." "You lost Lan Pin, I don't agree let you live here." "Get out." "You evict me..." "Yamhi?" "Come on, I let you play two step first." "Shit, time is 7:30." "lsumi-san, you may use anything in this room." "OK." "I want to take a nap again, you go out by yourself." "Okay." "He has strength to against to Lan Pin" "And his feeling is no bad..." "In result, Yamhi hasn't evicted me." "It shows that he think I have strength." "Last night, Yamhi let me play two step fiirst, so that game isn't match it should be a direction" "Did you play with Wangxin today?" "Yes, HuasIi also came." "I have a scare, I could meet pro I know." "Did they come back today?" "But China is different than Japan, almost of Chinese pro is younger." "Yes, if you have 30 years old, you shoul d worry the younger will surpass you." "So you goof when you are younger, your whole life will no meaning" "But Lan Pin doesn't care..." "Lan Pin?" "will you play with me?" "Okay, for two pins ln either case, tomorrow is hoIiday. I'l I accompany you till you want to rest" "In the holiday, Lee-sensei hasn't come, only few came to practice." "Isumi-san?" "Chao Si, you have come back." "Yes." "I stay here." "Because I want to play a game with you." "So... please" "Chao Si, welcome back." "Lan Pin" "How about your result?" "I won." "really, let's go to play." "Let's play bowling, bowling" "But..." "lsumi-san?" "He want to practice for a while." "He is weak." "Weak?" "I played once with him, I was easy to win." "You needn't care him." "Whatever he practice, he could win me." "Don't be smug." "Yamhi?" "Lan Pin, you play once with him again, you must lose this time." "No, today is holiday, I want to go to play with Chao Si" "You just know to play" "You also play computer all day." "You needn't care me." "OK, if I could win Isumi-san, you can't be prolix again." "If you lose, you must practice hard." "Let's go, Chao Si" "Lan Pin" "You have a game after one week, don't forget." "I could." "Sai..." "Shindou?" "NaiIai?" "Rumour said that you didn't go to match?" "Waya worries you." "Shindou!" "Shindou ?" "I and Lan Pin come from Yunnan." "I went to Yunnan and matched." "His parents visited me and asked his station." "He worried his singleton, if he study hard." "For Lan Pin's now result, he will be repatriate next year." "Isumi-san, I hope you give him a lesson, let he could practice seriously." "Sorry, I utilize you Iike this." "No, I should say thank to Lan Pin" "Because of him, you accompany me and play with me every night." "But if I pay back you, I must defeat Lan Pin, but I ..." "I believe that you will win, so I arrange this match." "well, that match you lost Lan Pin, how to play?" "Two days ago, I have lost Chao Si once..." "May be I lost child, I have a big frustration." "so I couldn't exert my strength." "original, I make it as my the pro exam" "But it hasn't helped me, I felt ability not equal to my ambition" "So what about yesteryear's pro exam?" "Someone disturbed my mind ln played chess, I made a big mistake." "I feel dejected I spend more time to requicken, but I have lost three times serially." "Are you be good at control your mood?" "Don't care ambient sound and eye fret, angst, unease, tensity and stress etc." "Don't let them disturb you." "For you, you should train this." "You only watch chequer" "You may train consciously lt hasn't relation with nature." "You could study this skill." "I couId study this skill?" "I never think it." "Control fettIe, I couId study?" "When you know this skill, you have more weapon." "What?" "Lan Pin play with lsumi-san?" "What's wrong?" "Yamhi think lsumi-san will win?" "Why?" "Who think Isumi-san is weak?" "Me, His skill is bed than Lan Pin's." "He is sober recently." "He isn't jittery like before." "Chen Yi lost him last time." "lsumi-san hasn't come here." "Time is half of day." "Shit, if it has match, I will go to pleasure part early." "The guy is slow, jeez." "Yamhi said time is 1 :30 pm." "Have they time?" "Don't worry, match will start at 1 :40 pm." "relax, slowly." "You will in the bag in today's match." "Don't stress you." "It's impossible, if I lose, I will no face to you, I couldn't live this room." "No, I should say I have no face to stay in China." "I only could tuck my tail and come back Japan" "Hey, you have so bid stress" "You haven't changed a bit." "Yes." "I could analyze me from the thirdparty direction." "I make another own in my heart." "So I couId calm down." "Okay, we should start." "Slowly, time is 1 :40pm." "I said time is around 1 :30." "Shit..." "lsumi-san, I tell you sIinkingIy." "We chat well" "Lan Pin will think I teach you some special." "Yamhi..." "And I announced ten minutes early on purpose" "He must be fretful" "Mood will effect result, you should know" "Yamhi, please don't do it again." "What?" "Sorry."
