If Life Was Like Hikaru No Go
Hey, everybody! This page is for the discussion of what life would be like if Hikaru No Go was real! I've started a list, feel free to add to it!

- Well, let's get right down to it: The ghost of Shusaku would be lurking in a goban just waiting to make you the most badassed go player EVER
- Everyone would grab their pant legs and make a gutteral noise before resigning.
- You would bump into professional go players on the street
- For some reason, everywhere you go, someone would be trying to swindle someone else out of something, and you'd save them by playing go
- The board would light up in a little circle whenever you placed a stone (assuming you're the Meijin)
- You'd find both pros, insei, and Shusaku himself playing regularly on the internet
- If you were really good, people would scheme up cheap ways to beat you and then they'd tell all their friends they beat you in an even game
- Somehow watching Shusaku's games would take you from a beginner to an insei

- After a game, you could scoop up all of the stones at once and they'd magically sort themselves into the proper bowls. -- BenjaminGeiger
- Games played by junior high school kids would strangely resemble pro games played years earlier.
- No kids would scream and yell and accuse their opponents of cheating if they lost.
Zarlan: Ghost of Shusaku? It was the ghost of Fujiwarano Sai, both in the case of haunting a goban and playing on the internet. Also pros do play on the Internet (there was no indication of it being common in Hikaru no Go. Quite the opposite I think) and Hikaru does more than just watch Sai's games (again: It's Sai not Shusaku).
bud1027 no ,no...fujiwarano sai is shusaku.
Zarlan: No he isn't. Shuusaku let Fujiwarano Sai play through him, just as Hikaru did sometimes. He was however not Sai just as Hikaru was not Sai.
bud1027 ah...yes, u r right. sorry for my mistake~ ^^;
