The player (as Hikaru) has to play go against the demons to win against them. One has to wonder what his sword is for! The go board is one of the smaller kinds though...I think, 9x9?

Ahaha, it's because I didn't take any screenshots of the go matches.

XD It's been far too long - I can barely remember everyone.

But yes, Hikaru needs to lose more if you get to see Akira like that. :3

Hikaru has a brilliant idea to cheer Sai up. No, it's not molesting Sai
XD *laughs*

It looks awesome! (But I doubt i'd ever be able to play it. XD;;)

I'm terrible with names, but I was watching the scenes with running commentary on nicovideo, where whenever someone appeared, everyone keysmashed their name. XDDD It's so fun watching stuff on nicovideo.

They all have pretty scenes! It's so cool to see Akira in those clothes doing that pose. XDD

I wouldn't be able to play it either, go wise. I would totally lose at all the go games! I wonder if it's all right to lose though, since both times that this player has lost, Akira stepped in and defeated the youkai for Hikaru, and the story went on. The Japanese part is all right though, since it's all voiced!

Wow, thanks for posting screencaps! They're so pretty. I've seen stills before but it's nice to get a summary of the game storyline. XD

[lucathia_rykatu]

The story line is so full of crack. XD; At the end, Hikaru makes an offhand mention about how Sai would wait 1000 years or however long for Go that made this game feel like a prequel. I guess they were trying to tie the game in somewhat logically. XD

I keep giggling over Akira and how he was called "Kamo-kun." Kamo Akira...

People are staring because I'm fangirling so much about how this game looks. It's soooo pretty~♥ Thanks for sharing!

I expect a rash of Heian era fanart and fics now.

Kaneko as Heian Beauty ftw~♥

I'll have to check the Gorgeous Chara guide, but the extra characters do look like they're from the Kaio Go Club. there were like, two pages devoted to them.

Oh, okay~. They're quite cute in this, but I had a hard time remembering them! I didn't even remember there being that many girls in the series. X3;;

Isn't it so pretty? *flails* I was watching the playthrough and laughing whenever someone showed up in their Heian clothes. When that scene with Ogata and Sai came up though, I went, "I have to screencap all of this." XDD

Eeeee, Heian era fanart and fic!! ♥ ♥

That storyline made me laugh so hard. XDD

Found you via the Baku-man community. ^^ Wow, thank you so much for this! I really love the idea of this game, and it's so beautiful, too. *_*

Hi there! That's a random place to find this journal, though I guess I commented there? :3 Aren't these pictures so pretty? I love how everyone looks in Heian era clothes. The game itself was pretty fascinating too, what with youkai interested in go. XD;

This game makes me want to look up other Hikago games too to see if they're just as interesting. I've always skipped over Hikago games since I don't understand go at all. ^^
