Title: Say Hello to Your Parents
Artist: Kaska Aotsuki
Circle: Tachikazekan
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: An insanely cute doujinshi about Hikaru and the captain of Akira's Go team. Probably the one reason I don't regret buying this set of doujinshi. It's an odd pairing, but I really like the art, which is cute, but not obscenely so. The story's typical slash fare, but nothing explicit and I really like the pairing itself.

Title: Fever Fever
Artist: Namihei Takatsuki and Akane Ryozuki
Circle: N/A
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: The first half of this doujinshi, I'm not too fond of. The art's rather stilted. The second half has a lot better art and deals with a conversation between Hikaru and Akira. Probably the best part of this doujinshi, I have to say, is the free-sketches which litter the pages, featuring a lot of really well-drawn Waya, oddly enough.

Title: Ogata no Go
Artist: Various
Circle: Escape
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: Craaaaack. This doujinshi is insane. While the art is inconsistant and painfully bad at times, this is probably the most cracktacular and funny HikaGo doujinshi I have. It's got everything from Ogata playing dating sims to parodies of Pokemon, Fist of the North Star, and Dragonball. And that, in itself, is enough to make me fond of it.

Title: Pencil Rocket
Artist: Mayumi Serizawa
Circle: Pinky Pudding
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: A really cute Waya-centric doujinshi. It's half gag and half serious. It mostly deals with Waya as a child, but there's not a lot of Go. The art's quite nice.

Title: Yuki Saibai
Artist: N/A
Circle: Blue Paint and Shizentai Heroine
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: Gag focusing on Yuki Mitani. The art really turned me off at first, but there's a strange cuteness to it all. I think the reason I like this one is just because Yuki is fun to poke fun at.

Title: Everyday is a Playing Go Day!
Artist: N/A
Circle: Starry Road
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: Cute gag with nice, clean and consistent art. Overall, it's just cute and very level gag, nothing too out-of-the left field. I think my favorite part of this doujinshi is seeing the characters dressed in Heian-period clothing in one of the sketches.

Title: Love One
Artist: N/A
Circle: Red Fish Love Chu
From: Doujinshi Shop above Okayama Animate (Pack of HikaGo doujinshi)
Commentary: Probably my least favorite HikaGo doujinshi. Art's fairly unastounding. It's half-het and half gag. I think my favorite overall part was the gag-art, which scarrily reminded me a bit of the early Gravitation volumes.

Title: Love's Dial 555
Artist: Kaori
Circle: 326
From: MagicalGirl.com
Commentary: Ah! A really cute Kaga/Tsutsui doujinshi. Just a few short stories about the two. It's nothing explicit, but it is quite cute. And Tsutsui's reactions are adorable.
