Hikaru no Go

ヒカルの碁

Sixth-grader Hikaru Shindo uncovers an old Go board in his grandfather's attic and releases Fujiwara no Sai, the ghost of a Heian-era Go master who longs to keep playing. Bound to Hikaru, Sai guides his moves, and a casual game draws the attention of Akira Toya, the gifted son of a top professional. Stunned that an apparent beginner could match him, Akira fixes on Hikaru as a rival, and Hikaru gradually moves from playing for Sai to wanting to master the game himself.
