Hikaru No Go Gorgeous Character Guide

   

The new Hikaru No Go Gorgeous Characters Guide was published in Japan last week (beginning of April 2002). The Gorgeous part of the name is a horrendous play on words - it is written in Japanese using the kanji for Go plus "jyasu" in katakana = "Go-jyasu" :-) For the Hikaru fans who think they have everything but need a little more, the guide lists 201 characters who appear in the first 17 volumes (BTW - volume 17 is scheduled for publication on June 4, 2002). It also contains game records for various of the games played although unfortunately no hints as to the original sources of those games. It includes a month-by-month time line for the events in the story (volume 1 begins in December 1998 and volume 17 ends in October 2001) and lots of other trivia as well. Enjoy!

I just got the guide from a friend, and it's great! I think the guide also misidentifies the second game between Hikaru and Akira, (See Hikaru no Go Games) but I am not confident enough in my Japanese to be sure.

It's a great guide, even if just for the art and kifu.
