Hikaru no Go quotes

Akira

There's something you're not telling me. What is it?

Hikaru

Look, never mind. Forget it. Anyway, you're the one who told me my life was about playing Go and you're OK with that.

Akira

Well yeah I did say that but-

Hikaru

Then that's it. End of story.

Akira

Then why did you say you'd tell me one day?!

Hikaru

I didn't. I said maybe like way off in the future, dummy!

Hikaru

[to Sai] What were you feeling when you left me? Was everything OK? Were you upset about something? Or were you smiling when you left? I hope everything was OK.

You say he only became a pro last year and he thinks he's a match for Toya? That kid's got some nerve if he thinks he can challenge someone who's made it to the Honinbo league already.

Akira

[angrily] Why is that so weird? I'm only a 3 dan! No matter how strong you are, everyone has to start off as a 1 dan. And you can only move up the rankings one level at a time. Your Dan ranking has nothing to do with your strength. Shindo is only a 1 dan now, but nobody should underestimate him! [Storms off]

Those two were fighting earlier, weren't they?

Hikaru

[Last line of the series] Sai, one day, you and I are going to play the Divine Move together.

Hikaru

Sai, I'll get stronger... And I'll definitely play the divine move one day... The divine move that you've been seeking the whole time. Just wait, Sai!
