Spoiler for Entire series:

After ep.60, things went downhill quick. They're just filling the eps with Hikaru and Akira's side story and Isumi. Did the anime caught up to the manga at that point and had to create original eps? It seems that way. And the ending was a big dissapointment too. They didn't even make an attempt to explain what that god move Sai was searching for is, Hikaru couldn't even beat Akira. IMO Sai disappeared way too early in the anime. He's not done teaching his knowledge to Hikaru yet. A thousand year of experience just went to waste just like that. I was expecting Akira to be just a minor to medium boss, and then the final battle would be between Hikaru and that Honinbo guy. Like I said big dissapointment. For the eps up to ep.60, 8/10, after that 5/10.

57 episodes?
then you have not seen the last 90 mins 2004 new year special?
it's like a huge episode 76.
watch it. I think it's great.
