On this eye, this eye on yours この瞳君の瞳に
Everything will appear 映るどんなモノも
I will tell apart the truth 見極めて見せるよ 真実を
We had so many dreams 僕達はこの時代に
In this time we live in どれだけの夢抱えて
We stare at it and run towards it 涙して迷いながら
Even as we wander about crying それに賭けてみてるの
Even then, I won’t hesitate to move 僕は それでも人にひけとらぬような
I’ll decide, stare at it, and grasp it in my hands 決め手見つけ 夢を手にするだろう
On this eye, this eye on yours この瞳君の瞳に
Everything will appear 映るどんなモノも
I’ll tell apart, just the truth 見極めて見せるよ 真実だけ
Even if the truth is たとえ現実が
So harsh it’s suffocating きつく埋もれそうでも
In a place like this こんな場所で終わる
I’m not myself 僕じゃない
I'm sure I want to play him in an even game
Yes
I wonder if I can make it happen...
I wonder...
But Hiakru
I'll make it happen someday. Be patient
When is someday
Someday is Someday
Besides, it was an important match for me, too!
And I couldn't play it because of your selfishness, Don't you get that?
Umm...
I'm sorry
Man, It was your fault for coming to me
Torajirou He was very clever...
And truely a nice person
So what you're saying is that I'm stupid and unkind
Hikaru...
Match 50: Sai of the Fujiwara
Why did god...
Revive me in Hikaru's mind?
It's true that Hikaru is growing very quickly
And it brings me both
Pride and joy in teaching him...
But.. What about...
What about my Go?
I hate this existance
The chance to play him finally came...
The game against him when
I was supposed to master the divine move...
But...
I couldn't do it
In a game that I couldn't play as myself
I couldn't head for that divine height with him
If I cannot master the divine move...
Why am I here?
How long am I supposed to wait?
A thousand years ago...
Everything began from there
Everyday... I played Go within the palace
But...
When I played the other tutor that his Majesty had
In a match to decide who would become the only tutor for his Majesty...
He placed a white stone that was hidden among his stones
In his Agehama during a moment
when everyone was distracted
When I tried to raise my voice...
You... Just now...
Hey
You!
You just placed a black stone from your Goke into Agehama!
W-What?
That is what you just did!
What a stupid excuse that is
You just placed a black stone that was hidden in your Goke into your Agehama
When everyone's attention was on the board!
You are the one making excusses!
Stop it.
Quiet
I do not wish to even consider
That such a dishonest act has occurred before me
Now Continue
I lost
I could not contain my anger
I was charged with cheating during the game
And driven out of the Capital
I no longer had a reason to live
Two days after the match...
I drowned myself
But...
I wanted to play Go a lot more
My soul, unable to find peace
Possessed a Go board
And after a long period of time
Heard a voice of a young boy
On Innoshima, within the Sea of Seto
He was...
Torajirou.
Young boy
If you can see the tears of grief that I shed
Let me dwell in a corner of your mind
I was able to play Go as much as I wished, Together with him
He changed his name to Shuusaku, And became the successor to the Honinbou
I believed that I would be able to master the divine move together with him
But...
He could not defeat disease and...
Torajirou...
Honinbou Shuusaku
I will never forget the time that I spent with him...
Never...
Sai...
So that's how you want to play it...
Yes..
And then you appeared before me
This stain just won't come off
There's no stain
It's clean
This!
Where?
Here!
There's nothing. Where!?
Here!
Can you see it?
That's what I've been saying...
Can you hear a voice!?
You can hear my voice, can't you?
There's nothing
Who are you!?
The gods before me...
I thank you
Now I can...
I can...
I can return to the present world Once more
But...I was concerned at first
After all, Hikaru, you had never played Go before
You like Go that much?
Yes!
You still want to play Go?
Yes!
Too bad
I have no intentions of playing Go
Hikaru!
Shindou-Kun!
Say
Can't you possess someone other than me?
Probably not
Fine
I guess it would be okay to play once in awhile
And!? And!?
Where are we playing?
In a Go salon
Wow, It's filled with old men
Oh there's another kid
Can I play him?
Umm, yeah... But he's...
Looking for someone to play?
This is how I met Touya Akira
Okay This is how I met Touya Akira
I'll play you This is how I met Touya Akira
I believed that this was the destiny that God gave me
Yes...
The wheels of destiny began to turn
Okay!
17-4, Komoku on the upper right-hand corner
17 and...
One...Two...Three...Four...
He holds the stone like a beginner
I think I played him around three times
Through Hikaru's body
16-17, Komoku on the lower right-hand corner
16-17... here it is
3-16
3-16...
8-15
Let's see... 8.. There it is!
This...
This isn't the best move...
Nor is it the strongest move
He made this move to see how I would respond
He's testing to see how strong I am...
From far above me...
Touya Akira had great potential
Despite the fact that he was the same age as Hikaru
So...
Go on...
Yeah...
wow, he doesn't even notice the crowd
That's why I...
He's waiting for my Kosumi isn't he?
I suppose there's nothing wrong with that
15-16
Kosumi
Come, let's see what you have in mind!
I resign!
Sai...
He resigned
He declared his own defeat
He faced up to me despite his fear
Our third match was a match over the internet
He's strong
I feel a wall higher than when Shindou defeated me
He's...
He's... Not Shindou?
Could it be!?
The black in the center has... No chance of living
He resigned...
Sai, how was it?
Was it Touya?
Without a doubt
Oh
And? What did you think?
Sai?
Yes He was very strong
He had great instincts
He thought during all the important moves
And? Did Touya get any stronger?
I was the one that became stronger
And Hikaru, you, too
Me?
You watched dozens of my games, after all
Yes
Together with Hikaru
I learned modern Go
Through playing Touya Akira
Touya Akira began to chase after me
And Hikaru began to chase Touya
Oh yes, I forgot about that match
When I was playing Touya Akira
During Hikaru's match in the Go tournament...
Touya
How far...
Have I caught up to you?
I want to play
Touya
Just like you're chasing after Sai, I'm chasing you
I'll catch up to you some day
13-4
I'll go to 11-8, and then...
Hikaru. 13...
I want to find out
Sorry, Sai...
I can't tell without playing him myself
I want to find the gap between me and him
11-8!?
I'm playing!
Now that I think about it
That was when I first realized
How interesting Hikaru's ideas were
You must have been mortified then
Stop messing around!
Touya...
I'm going to catch up to you someday
If you keep chasing after my illusion!
You?
Would you like to play now instead of someday?
Ever since then, Hikaru has...
Run straight towards Touya Akira
He became an Insei to chase after Touya
And he passed the pro exam
He really has become strong
Hikaru!
Your name!
I said I'd remember it
Shindou Hikaru
My name is... Shindou Hikaru!
But...
Now that I think about it
That was around when I stopped playing Go against people other than Hikaru
And to think, I have more opportunities to play stronger players now
Hikaru..
Hikaru, do you not intend to let me play anymore?
Even though I'm closest to mastering the divine move?
Oh, god! Why did I come back in the mind of Hikaru!?
God...
So..
So there is no answer after all...
Hikaru!
Wake up!
Hurry and wake up!
What is it? Why are you being so loud this early in the morning?
Wake up and play me!
I haven't even eaten breakfast yet
I don't want to
No I don't want to's
We have to play to come closer to mastering the divine move
Hikaru you're the only person I can play
What's wrong Sai?
You're acting weird
Not at all
It's just the conclusion I came to
Come on,
hurry! Hurry!
Let me sleep for just another half hour
No
Hikaru!
Hey! Hikaru! Wake up!
Good night
Let's play, Hikaru! Good night
Let's play, Hikaru!
Hikaru!
