meteordustIt's a little over five years since I first read Hikaru no Go. It's still one of my favourite manga of all time, not just because it's a great story in its own right, but because of what it says about striving for your dreams. For this Hikago Day, I offer one of my favourite quotes:
"You are quite different from Akira. And I'm not talking about the difference in strength. I'm talking about how passionate you are in pursuing your goals. You don't know what Akira was like in Kaio's Go club. Akira went after you with everything he had, despite the consequences. You'll catch up to him someday? And just exactly when will that day arrive?"
- Kishimoto, Chapter 40 of Hikaru no Go
