Now without further ado let's start the VLOG!
The plot of Hikaru No Go bases around an asian game named go. As you probably wondered " Hikaru No GO" probably had to do with it.
Because i'm defining the PLOT of the story and not the fashion in which Go is played i will give some basics to how it's played.
You may think go is similar to somewhat similar game named othello. But go is different. Instead of using chips to decrease the amount of spaces in othello in Go you try to increase your amount of space by surrounding your opponents chips. Like othello the only colors are black and white.
OK. So onto the plot of Hikaru No Go.
Hikaru ( The main protagonist of the series) finds a go board in his closet and thinking it's worth some money. Spawning an old ghost from japan's distant past. named Sai. With knowledge from the past she lays in Hikarus thoughts. Knowing nothing of Go Hikaru learns soon that this ghost is a master. When it comes to the learning curve of Go Hikaru feels he does not have the brain.
Sai has a hunch that Hikaru as some potential. Sai teaches Hikaru the basics so she could direct him what to do in a Go game. They attend a tournament With a well known go master who's son is a very skilled go player.
Akira ( the master's boy ) Faces Hikaru in a go match. He analizes he's new to the game by the fasion in whitch he lays his chips. But with the knowledge of Sai on Hikaru's side He ends of receiving victory.
Over time he learns from Sai's knowledge start's a Go ADVENTURE!
Overall i really recommend this manga/anime. It has an awesome episodic feeling.
