Hikaru No Go, Vol. 19, Volume 19 by Yumi Hotta
4.0
Nice setup for the follow-up to the main story - there is a new tournament between China, Korea and Japan under 18 - and there will be a tournament to decide who will join the team. Akira is seeded in the team, but the rest of the spots are under doubt.
In the mean-time, Akira and Hikaru tie a nice competitive friendship, in which they analyze games together. Even if they didn't play a game in a competition, they learn a lot from each-other and develop this healthy rivalry.
Isumi is scheduled to play his first game, and he's playing against the very old player (I always forget his name). There's a come-back of the crook 7dan player who is defeated by Hikaru. The main theme of this volume is how Hikaru is playing at shodan, but his level is actually way higher.
