I think I once had some ideas for a Hasegawa fic but it was boring!
Poor Hasegawa. I would need some serious inspiration to write something for him that doesn't suck.
-----
1. My favorite character. WAYA OF THE HAIR. I like what a good guy he is, how brash he is (except when he's with his sensei), and how he's so interested in other people, almost to the point of being nosy. In a series of mostly self-centered (not in a bad way) go players, he's refreshingly social.
2. ANOTHER favorite character!! Hikaru! Hikaru Hikaru Hikaru. And Isumi. And Touya. And Sai.
3. My favorite character relationship, and by "relationship" I don't necessarily mean pairing and certainly not OTP, but on the other hand, depending on the fandom MAYBE I DO! Hikaru's relationship with go *cough cough*. And with Sai. And with Touya. They're all related, like a weird little love triangle with a board game at the center of it. I love the philosophizing and the chasing and the convoluted secrets lol.
4. The moment/character/THING/WHATEVER that first hooked me on the fandom. I think it was after the children's tournament, when Hikaru says to Touya, "I had never seen that before. There were kids younger than me, yet they were all really serious. It was really great." And Hikaru looks all shy and shining and shows for the first time what he might become. Then Touya says "duh, you've never been serious before?" and gets angry and shows what he already is. It's nothing different from any other sports/game series, that moment of realization, but I love it anyway.
5. One of my favorite moments. When Hikaru blurts out "Hey, you're Zelda!" to Waya. HA HA HA HA Hikaru you are an idiot. And Waya is an idiot for accepting your explanation.
6. A song or track that reminds me of this fandom. "Eye of the Tiger"
7. One miscellaneous awesome thing about the fandom. It's laid-back and unstressful. :)
8. One completely random thought I have regarding this fandom. NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO PLAY GO.
9. One fic/essay rec, fanart, or fanvid that depending on the fandom I either had lovingly bookmarked or saved onto my hard drive, or only just now found during a two-minute Google search. A Proof by Contradiction by petronia. Great use of voice. A love story defined by absences. Sad as hell. And then you read her author's notes and you have to laugh a bit at the Mack truck bit.
