Hikara No Go
is a shounen anime that debuted in 2001 and ended in 2003. It's about a 6th grader who finds
a spirit in a go board and their adventure in the game world together. It's enjoyable for all ages.
Story:
It's simple but works. I was lil sad at the end but I'm not going to spoil it for you.
Form of Development:
Keeps your attention. It's not slow, it skips blocks of time to keep the momentum of the story.
Side Stories:
It had one episode that didn't really flow with the main one.
Believable:
The logic fit the story. Nothing happened where it made it hard to beleive.
Conclusion:
The Conclusion was great still said for me though.
What kept my interest is the excitement of the matches. It sounds corny but the anime did and excellent jump of making a game of go dramatic.
Art:
The art was great. I found it a lil weird that Sai had purple lips though,lol.
Sound:
I watched the Japanese Dubbed, English Subbed. I was happy to find no annoying shy voices as well. The dubbed voices were cool. The beginning and end songs were nothing special, they were typical anime pop. The background music played a big part and making this anime enjoyable. Although some of it came off corny for the most part the sound kept me glued to the television when a match was playing.
Character:
No annoying characters all the characters introduced played contributed to the story.
Enjoyment:
I very much enjoyed this anime! From the beginning to the end.
Overall:
I would give this the highest rating because it managed to keep my interest through the whole series. Towards the end I got a little sad but I still kept watching.
Cosplaylicious Rating: 10/10
Would I recommend to a friend? Yes, I would very much recommend this to a friend regardless of age. Don't have to be in to sports or the game of go to enjoy this anime.
Characters to Cosplay:
There wasn't any female characters who had cool outfits that would inspire me to cosplay. They had middle school uniforms for female characters but I'll pass. I would love to cosplay Sai though even though he's a male,lol. I would just make the cosplay a female version.
Alternative names:

" , it was pretty awesome! It's a total of 6 episodes that combine to equal 60 mins. So it's like the same as watching a short movie when it comes to time wise. For the most part my eyes were glued to the television screen, so a two thumbs up for that. I love the color scheme, the animation and how the characters moved. It gave it a pop up story book kind of feel. I'm pretty sure there is a term for it but I'm too lazy to google it,lol. The story was interesting, it had witty humor with some love interests...and spats so no complains from me. I would recommend it to a friend that enjoyed animation also.
I would only recommend to a friend if they were (extremely) bored and liked anime and were a fan of the manga since I'm assuming the manga was better.
" I couldn't even stomach 15 mins of it. It was just awful. Going through the instant que I decided to revisit the episode. Well towards the ending it got interesting. There was some action and dialogue that was intriguing let's see if it can follow up. The animation is pretty lame. The main character Shindou Ranmaru hair color is yellow with orange highlights talk about tacky.
