GO anyone?

Post by Noblesan »

I have a vague recolection of Usagi playing go at some time. Perhaps it was just a picture, but can anyone tell me where I might find it? It would make a great present for my Go partner. Arigatoo gozaimasu. Jaa mata... -Jason

That would be "The Mystery of Demon Mask". If you have the book, it's on page 93.

I made a mistake in the comic book editions of Demon Mask. We used to play a game we called Go when I was a kid and had Usagi playing that. What I played, though, was Go-moku which uses the same board and pieces but the objectives are completely different--like chess is to tic-tac-toe. I heard about that mistake from e-mails from as far away as Germany. I bought a book on Go, went to a tournament put on by the Los Angeles Go Association and went online to the National Go Association's website. I was able to correct that mistake in the trade collection (UY vol 14: Demon Mask).

I am pretty sure Usagi played GO in the Demon Mask story-line, not with Inspector
