Pretty much the same sport worlds but we have here a darker side . There are a lot of similarities between them but here we have murder, threatening letters , street attack on kids ,cheating and I am only at the end of third chapter. I like it a lot but I haven't the heart to continue today not even with another page.

Seriously? Wow, I looked right at this title when Supreme Cream picked it up and totally blew it off.............you make a much more convincing case for my reading it than the synopsis for it does, that's for sure. 

 

And I guess this one is Shougi instead of Go, but I know what you mean, as I remember from Hikaru no Go the two are pretty similar. Frankly any comparison of the two titles is a pretty bold statement, I loved HnG and it was also very successful.

It's about being the same kind of competitions, the same kind of way to be a pro or Meijin.... We have here the God of Shougi.Yes, the sports aren't the same but their worlds are.

.........I think the Mejin himself might've overtaken his little brother in my book. That guy's a real snake in the grass, I think.

Wow, it really seems the author has been trying to point things at the Mejin for a while now........I won't be surprised if someone unexpected pops up at some point here to be the actual killer. I don't know though, it's getting well on towards the end now, only a little more than one volume left I believe.
