Everyone must love the Hikaru no Go. It is necessary.
*nods seriously*
And the thing is, I'm persistent. Of course, it'd be easier to persist if there was more fic to recommend - I forced some people into Sports Night through sheer merciless recommending - but there's enough to throw at people for quite a while, and I am dedicated. People should just give up now and succumb. They will be happy they did. Well, except right around a Certain Chapter or Episode, but it's possible to recover from that, I find.
*further nods*
But in case you get tired of refreshing the links, there is a chapter-by-chapter dl available here. It's a little tedious, but might save you a world of trouble down the road.
Ooo. Excellent.
Did you know about the two tiny little sequels to 189? Because I just found out about them not so long ago.
I did indeed, and OMG. The one with the new insei? Dead. From. Love. And Akira and Hikaru look so grown up, and they kick so much ass, and furthermore they are so totally in love, and nothing anyone can say will make me believe otherwise. Plus, OMG, Hikaru and Akira fangirls and boys!
wanna point me at the Go wank?
There's wank all over Sensei's Library - check out the link to player gender above for the dignified, thoughtful discussion of that topic which essentially proves that black is white - but the one I mentioned that was started by the Chinese press is the Samsung Cup 2004 Dispute (http://senseis.xmp.net/?Samsung2004Dispute). It has all the hallmarks of classic fandom wank - minor misunderstanding exacerbated by miscommunication, exacerbated again by a third party's attempt to be helpful, and then the masses get into it and suddenly it's all blood and tears and character assassination. Except, you know, on a different scale, given that the masses in this case were a substantial fraction of the Chinese and Korean population, and these guys were involved in wank about what they do for a living. (They couldn't just delete or friends lock their games and go home, you know?)
