Plot Summary: Hikaru
Shindo is just a normal 12 year old boy, but one day he's rumaging
through his Grandfather's things to see if he can find something to
sell and pulls out an old Go board. A ghostly apparation appears out of
the board and tells Hikaru his sad story. His name is Sai Fujiwara, a
man who was a Go instructor to the emperor of Japan a thousand years
ago. However, because of bad sportsmanship of his opponent during a
game, Sai was accused of cheating and banished from the city. With no
livelihood or any other reason to live, Sai commited suicide by
drowning himself. Now, he haunts a Go board, and wants to accomplish
the perfect Go game, called the "Hand of God" which he hopes to do
through Hikaru. If Hikaru will be able to do it or not (or even wants
to) will have to be seen.
