I mean the fact that his parents let him venture into chess at all in the first place (instead of thinking this was a waste of his time from studying to become a doctor/lawyer) was probably what he was referring to. And even when professionals and other adults urge the parents to invest in the kid so they can become better at the particular craft (chess in this case), lots of asian parents may have opted out and declared otherwise.

Chess is arguably the first E-sport, they used to play games via telegraph in the 1800s.

The more I watch this guy the more I just love him.

4:24 a rare alternate universe where Hikaru understands the meme

This is Hikaru’s true power He cannot only see many moves beyond us, but he can see the unseeable

if hikaru says grades don’t matter then i guess my teachers aren’t getting those assignments due tm

This is often what i think of Hikaru when he does this reactions, (quoting hank from breaking bad): "You're the smartest guy I ever met, and you're too stupid to see"

When you remember that we have scene only a glimpse of his power. To be able to just think so fast about theoretical lines accurately like that is just flooring. They do that for every single move every single time. And they have to go up against opponents who are just as good and squeeze water from stone for the slightest advantage or at least draw.

Imagine living in a constant state of r/whoooosh

Hikaru going full boomer mode on memes yet it's still funny somehow

Hikaru: Worlds highest bullet / Blitz rating, Top 5 International Chess player, Second to Magnus Carlsen in the Community of chess. Also Hikaru: *chat i don't understand this meme.*

If Hikaru understands memes as well as he understands chess, he would burst into laughter before the meme starts 😂😂😂 Analyzing 30 memes ahead

"there are 4 rules" the fourth is "no saying stop bullying levy's play"

Boy, that's a lot of presumption on your end at the end there.

The meme from the thumbnail is AMAZING! Now that’s my kind of humor.

Seeing the meme on the thumbnail without context made laugh so hard cause i actually thought it was gonna be a CSGO meme

10:54 people will study the bong cloud as a legit opening then.

3:00 the main storyline is chess, side quests are all the other games. It makes more sence from the audiences perspective, where we see a lot of chess videos and some random stuff sprinkled in (I mean minesweeper to fortnite levels of random)..

"this poll with these leaves..." Hikaru meets plant.

Someone commented: I aint cena thing

8:42 they both wanted to stand up then stopped then stand up again 😅😆

I think the 4 rules joke is that your a genie who grants wishes to levy with exceptions but wouldn't grant him the wish of not bullying him.

I didn’t laugh at all when I saw the thumbnail but as soon as he started laughing at it I couldn’t stop 😂😂😂

I know it’s probably a generational thing but it’s really absurd how some jokes just go over hikaru’s head
