I agree re: Akira - he seems stuck in a holding pattern. Even if he's been doing his best not to think about it, he must have formed *some* conclusions... but we're not really eeing much of him outside his relationship with Hikaru, maybe he's doing most of his growth in other areas.
Well, no. I meant in his professional career - we hear about him playing games and things, but we don't really get to see it or know what he's thinking. Only time we get to see inside his head is when he's thinking about Hikaru and/or Sai.
Ah yes, he presumably does play other people as well. I would have liked to see him play someone else for a change. Uhm, did we ever see him play someone other than Hikaru & Sai? I mean properly, not in passing.
I'm not sure... I can't remember any in particular, just people mentioning in passing that they've played him (or beat him, in Kurata's case. *That* would have been a game to see).
You know, with the little snippets of the planning meetings for the anime that Obata talks about, discussing the color of various characters' hair and such, you just KNOW they had an entire meeting discussing exactly how to dress Akira. Poor boy...
