Pretty nice second episode, some nice development but well Hikaru is actually quite a big trouble maker... oh well let's see what's next!

It's nice that Hikaru goes out of his way to learn Go, he really doesn't have to, just for Sai's sake. The incident with the bald guy was pretty funny; Hikaru can indeed be a troublemaker. Not the kind of kid you'd normally imagine getting into Go. The OP and ED are great! And nostalgic.. I really like that early 2000s jpop sound, and I've been listening to the OP song for years now, even before seeing the show.

Sai is so cute...getting enchanted by vending machines lol.
Very dramatic moment with all the other pros when Akira's dad just comes in.

Touya's gotta let that loss go lol.

Thought I guess it was quite a shock to lose to someone who claimed to be a beginner.

RIP to that guy's head:-D :-D

Akira just can't let it go, I understand though since it's the first time he has tasted defeat.

I'm loving the chemistry between Sai and Hikaru.

Akira is having an existential crisis over the game with Sai, but it's because he's strong enough to measure Sai's skill level. it has to be a mindfuck to see that skill in form of Hikaru who can't even hold the stones properly lol

Hikaru straight up snatches a guys weave and gets kicked out of go school. At this point he's beyond redemption but it's funny to watch his antics.
