 Hikaru No Go #12 is delightful!Jun 11, 2008
By Duncan Brown
"Duncan Brown"
This is a great entry in the Hikaru No Go series. #12 has Hikaru playing against Toya Mejin, and also attending a go fair and meeting a dishonest seller of go equipment.
A very well written manga that has been an excellent seriesOct 01, 2011
By Pablosan
This is a great manga. It is a great story with excellent artwork and great character development throughout the series. It is also suitable for all ages.
If you don't know anything about the game of Go and how it relates to Japanese, Chinese and Korean culture, this series provides a nice introduction to that world wrapped in great story-crafting and artwork.
 May be supplanting Bleach as my favorite manga.Mar 08, 2011

Yumi Hotta, Hikaru no Go, vol. 12: The Shinshodan Series (ViZ, 1998)
The Pro Test may be over, but that's just the beginning of Hikaru's adventures. His first match as a pro comes in the Shinshodan Series, and Hikaru has gained attention from places even he never expected; it turns out a mysterious competitor has specifically requested him as an opponent, and the whole Go world is waiting with bated breath to see how this match is going to turn out. When Sai finds out who it is, he begs to be allowed to play the match himself, but Hikaru is concerned that his play is now different enough from Sai's that people will notice. Another excellent entry in the series. ****
