- Sai's space suit! - I may be imagining it, but it seems like we're seeing more and more shots of Hikaru without Sai lately. I don't know how much of it is simply foreshadowing (not that that isn't being laid on as thick as molasses), but I wonder if they're also trying to show us how Hikaru's not really needing Sai anymore, now that he has pros to play and learn from. - Amused at the number of shots of Kurata talking while he has food in his mouth. - Is Hikaru portrayed as his 6th grade self in that safari shot? - Hikaru's present but absent dad... I guess there's no real reason to mention this again, but I will anyway: I find it hard to believe that that's pure laziness on Obata's part. - Poor Waya... Could Shigeko be any less subtle about wanting to marry him?
