Manga Review: Hikaru No Go (。◕‿◕。) Bittersweet Ending!
Oh hi there again. I know that I said that I wouldn't be writing anything from now on but I couldn't help but to share another manga that I've read. 'HIKARU NO GO'. I just finished reading this story just now. And I have to say that this story is too good but the ending didn't give it any justice at all.
This manga is about a normal boy named Shindo Hikaru who found a goban (Google it) which was haunted by a ghost. That ghost, Fujiwarano Sai was a famous 'GO'-player in the past (if I wasn't mistaken, it was in Heian Period?). Then, (a lot of things happened) Hikaru became enticed to play the Go game and Sai taught him how to play Go.
So, basically, that's the summary of the story. It was a really fun story at the beginning. Everyone were surprised to see such newbie like Hikaru was able to defeat some professional players although he was assisted by Sai. It was VERY fun. Plus, Sai is such a heartthrob. He was the very reason why I like the story so much... But then, reality kicks in. He's a ghost. He can't live forever with human... *cries sobbingly* He disappeared. Then, you can say the story went downhill afterwards and it ended just like that. I was hoping that Sai will come back later but it clearly didn't happen. I feel so sad right now, people! It would've been A THOUSAND TIMES better if Sai didn't disappear. Truly!
Anyway, that's what I want to share for today. I went against my own rule to put out this post because I couldn't hold it in any longer. It's just too freaking depressing to hold in.
