hikaru rushing the questions like chess puzzles
Let's keep going
'So we reply reply reply... Can I reply this? No, this is really bad. What am I doing? Okay, reply, reply, reply, okay they really should surrender now'
Hikaru is part VIKING! (this answers so many questions)
Lol
@@snoopstp4189true. Like his appreciation of Magnus skill aside!
He premoved his answers
Underrated comment 😂
There is the Streamer Hikaru and then there is the Actor Hikaru. This is the Actor Hikaru you can tell by the calm demeanor and lack of giggling.

Being top 10 of all time is... Acceptable to my modest standards - Hikaru Nakamura, 2023
I don't have a huge ego, I only think I'm top 10-15 or so.
I mean I am second but it is still nice@@incredulouschordate
@@incredulouschordate Its not having a big ego if its the truth🔥
@@alphalance9408 true, but that's a big IF for someone who has never been world champion and has never been the highest ranked player
Obviously
- What's your name?
- Well, the answer obviously is Hikaru Nakamura
Besides being an extraordinary chess player, Hikaru truly deserves kudos for popularizing chess and embracing all its weird memes and quirks in its online era
Funny that he calls the metric system a "European standard" when it's really the global standard. 😂
lol it is literally the world's standard
@@patogordo1385Yeah, so what guys? Predominantly Europeans are critical to the US for not having the metric system. So why doesn’t the whole world? It’s because it doesn’t matter. The US is large enough and influential enough to keep the imperial system alive. We use the metric system for science because this application actually does benefit us. Changing it in general would actually have more negative effects than positive. Not big effects but still negative.
@@huntersedlacek7495 stop
@@user-do9wf1dn7f Bruh, stop what?
@@huntersedlacek7495 Nationalism drives you crazy.
As a scandinavian im claiming hikaru so we actually have the two most prominent chess players from scandinavia 😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂It's means both are Scandinavian brothers.. Who keeps fighting
One and a half*
@@thenatron6136If you wanna be a bit xenophobic you can say that.😂
@@huntersedlacek7495Whatˋs xenophobic about that?
We need more of this... hikaru would have made a very good. Lawyer bravo sir
Dont you study LAW, for being a LAWyer? I thought POLITICAL science goes almost hand in hand with being a politician.
@@404talentnotfound5 Politicians create legislation. Legislation IS Law
Lawyer? Interesting…
@@404talentnotfound5you need an undergraduate degree before getting admitted into a law school. It is common for lawyers to major in political science before going to law school afterwards
uh based on what? Didn't even finish college, barely explains answers
Ok but the most important question: dose Hikaru know how the Knight moves?
horsey piece?
Just New players and magnus dosenn't know thats 😂
Does not dose
Wrong, you should ask him whether or not he's hiding stockifsh at his desk
(Don't tell him Kramnik asked)
At his ceiling*@@Checkmate_Edits
We need the magnus version too!!!

I’m nowhere near the greatest player of all time.
I’m in the top 10 or 15 players of all time.
- Hikaru Nakamura
Modern players are stronger so its not too unreasonable. But best is more subjective, and is about eras, having never been world champion or even qualified for WC match, I'd say theres no way he's top 10. He has won US champion multiple times. I'd say top 15 might be a bit generous but its his opinion
Which isn't near at all
@@jamesjacob21 I think he meant across every format. The question was not "are you the best classical player"
Considering that most nowadays super GMs are better than all WCs up to the 70s and considering all kinds of chess is played nowadays he is quite accurate. Considering the only classical OTB chess I will say he is probably more in the top 15-20 all time.
In blitz and in bullet is Top 2 All time.
@@blender_wiki bit silly saying blitz all time. All time refers to classical only , blitz has very little history as game taken seriously outside of todays era
Bro thinks he's Hikaru
He's real Hikaru
@@Josuke8ManHe wish he would be 😏
I really wish one of the questions were, "Does Hikaru love Magnus"
Of course, he’s his butt-buddy ;)
In another video a long time ago, there was a similar question asked and Hikaru said there is kind of a brotherhood comradery with all the top chess players, but nothing more than that. p.s. I'm summarizing; I don't remember his exact wording, but sounds more like competitors than even friends.
Despite Hikaru's success in his career, it's hard to determine who is wealthier between him and his brother Asuka, as Asuka also appears to be doing very well
Based on location and tenure, he likely makes between 200-300k at JP Morgan. A millionaire for sure. I honestly would bet his brother has a higher net worth believe it or not.
@@baka1984Hikaru makes more
Hikaru makes way more.
Dude, Hikaru makes more than Doctors and Lawyers. $200k/yearly is nothing. Hikaru has UA-cam and Twitch where he easily makes way more than $1MM, not to even mention, tournaments where he sometimes makes over $50k in just a single tournament, i.e. getting 2nd in Qatar Masters
I am pretty sure Hikaru works a lot harder. Look at the amount of time he spends streaming, then think of preparations , maintaining his channel , studying games, reporting evens and news and analysing games...and a lot of what's behind.
that was very cool of Hikaru sharing some detail we all wanted to know
Hikaru, humble as always, thats why the fans love him
😂
love him and his speedy but friendly style in everything!
thank you for answering the retired question, my brother and I have been fighting over that and now I win the argument!
3:00 there ain't no Nakamura competitive play footage without him looking at the ceiling
True chess fans know this is a reupload
I'm a chess 2 guy myself
Chess 2 trailer just dropped
I want to see him as world champion one day.
He played so much blitz that he blitz out his questions.
We need more content like this Danny😅
Good! Now I waiting to see for that same last question to Magnus in the next video!
Hikaru’s IQ is about 111 because he is always number one.
I wanna see Hikaru in WWE and Shinsuke playing chess.
Simply a great person ... and chess player
You produce very entertaining videos. Bravo
Stunned that he took so long...
He could've just said: "nice ok lets go next"
He premoved those questions
Why is Hikaru Nakamura so talkative and so fluent in English? hahaha and it makes me unable to stop thinking and amazed at this chess GM and how he plays
because he is american... jeez how brainless you guys are there
He was raised in the US, so he's probably been speaking English for most of his life. His streaming career has probably made him very talkative and fluency, of course, just comes from practice.
Why wouldn’t be? He is American
Wth
One thing which surprises me the most is is hikaru has a 7-1 lead over vishy in classical
Is that Shingo Nakamura playing in the background? 🤔 nice
Where is the question "Is H.N. have a Stockfish on his ceiling?":^)
good one
He even blitz in this one.
Loved it! Please do more of these with other players as well!
I whish to all guys don't be retired, move forward and Never Give Up☝️
He held for his life not to add 2. Ke2 after saying he prefers to start with 1. e4
"Something decent at least" I love it. Short kings stand tall
Favorite opening: Bongcloud
"something like that" - Hikaru don't play with us! we KNOW you KNOW your rank!!!
hikaru being hikaru
Hikaru is so humble, bro, all things considered, you are top 3
delusional
Am I the only one who was confused when they uploaded the video and took it down later. Now it’s back, I guess.
WIRED but better.
Hikaruuu
"they think i have a massive ego"
lmfao i can never forget hikaru saying "bro thinks hes hikaru or something"
Hikaru is most definitely top 15, I’d say top 10 at his best.
Definitely, since chess players have gotten a lot stronger over time. This is very controversial but not one chess player from before the 1990's could beat Hikaru except Kasparov and maybeee Fischer but as good as he was he just didn't live during the computer chess era.
@@alphalance9408 fischer wouldn't be anywhere close at his peak. You're totally right about new generation players being stronger than the last but fischer is wildly incorrect. A few from the past would have a decent shot at beating Hikaru if you just plucked them from the past. Feels like you've picked kasparov and fischer because those are two of the biggest names ever but that's such a surface level superficial choice
Hikaru, Magnus and many of this generation is so good and high rated compared to those in the past partially due to computers and being able to learn the best lines.
Fischer or someone completely different from the past could have surpassed them with the latest tech.
But he's speaking from an ability perspective and is not wrong. Would be unlike someone of Japanese descent to lie.
I don't think that's entirely true, Tal in his prime was playing midgames and endgames similarly sharp to what's being played today and that was before computers, if he would take minor concessions to get players out of theory there's at least a case to be made that he could take games from todays top GMs
@@alphalance9408 what about Karpov, Vishy and Kramnik? Kamsky and Peter Svidler? And I believe Levon is older than him as well, isn't it? And if we talk about younger than him than I see Magnus, clearly Fabi who is always the underdog and underrated, Wesley, MVL, Ding. I have just listed 11 and I can think of at least 10 more, not even considering youngsters like Alireza. Not all of these would absolutely crush him, not even Magnus can do it but still you can't just say he's better than all of them.
Hikaru was playing question rush
OUR FISCHER WORLD CHAMPION LES GOOOO🔥🔥🔥
Drax: I'll do you one better, why is hikaru nakamura?
So Hikarus mom is Scandinavian, Magnus and Hikaru must be related. Maybe they should do DNA test next!
Question: Is Hikaru Nakamura
Hikaru: No.
Yes my favourite chess player/chess streamer 😊
that would be cool, "Hikaru knows we love him?"
Of Course
This hikaru guys looks like a great smart person he should try chess
I love hikaru nakamura
Wired: yall will be hearing from my legal team very soon
Hikaru practically blitzing out everything, i am just worried he doesnt blitzing out his honeymoon
AND THATS WHY HES THE GOAT🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Of course! Why didn't I think of that?
"european standards" dude its the standard of the world 😭
💕 Hikaru
Now I see where Hikaru's interest in stock investments is coming from. Big bro was there to mentor :)
This was very interesting
I think that to make that ranking, you have to evaluate classics, rapid and blitz. Ding is world champion and, in my opinion, less complete than Naka. I think the same about Kramnik, and other champions. His problem is having run into Magnus. Surely it would be in the top 15.
Of course
I could have looked up all these questions on google and gotten the same answers lol
CEO of "of course"
Still waiting hand&brain nakamura vs firouzja brothers 😅
Hikaru part Scandinavian? Related to Magnus, I see
Doesnt know his IQ after doing nothing but IQ tests his entire life.
Imagine santa not knowing what's inside his presents
man wired looks different today
1:45
My favorite chess player
Please don't retire
Shinsuke Nakamura is actually a professional wrestler in the WWE
Hikaru is like a much more likable and chill Vegeta, and Magnus is like a pompous Goku.
Please, Make same on magnus.
I was hoping someone would ask if Hikaru plays Go.
Damn, so this video was recorded on October 10th 2023 (0:48) and they just released it? lol
Top 10 GOAT
Bro premoved the questions
This is just what the doctor ordered
What's his "this of course" rating?
This guy seems smart, he should get into checkers
Well, this interview showed what political science Hikaru would be like
My coach✨🤧
Was that the actual cup? Looked to me like a peace of sh.. for a second. 😂😂😂
Hikaru cutie
“What can’t Hikaru Nakamura stop saying”
“The answer of course is ‘the answer is of course’”
Whoa its almost as if I have seen this before??...
Hikaru is 5ft7 on his toes!!!!
Bro hikaru is the GOAT of blitz🎉
Hope he becomes a world champion before he retires. 😊
Love how he says footballer
Now do a wesley one
