I have to agree with everyone, the fluff is back (and I love it). I also notice that Rei is the novice completely out of his league, which is perfect for our shougi prodigy to experience. Damn, I'm feeling all sentimental and nostalgic, remembering playing Pirate and Traveller with my parents and sister, learning pinochle (my Mom and Dad's favourite game, or putting a 500 - 1000 piece puzzle together with my Dad. It probably bored the heck out of him (he was a chemist with an IQ that was definitely off my scale), but he put glue on a sheet of show cardboard and slid the completed puzzle onto it as a trophy for me. I never had kids, but, if I had, I only wish I could have been half the Dad that he was.
