Onosato will win the Kyushu yusho
Who’s taking up sadogatake’s foreigner spot?
>>247083Did he leave?
>>247084Doesn’t look like it I just really want that Bukhchuluun kid, does Kotokenryu have a notable background?
>>247085Not really. He wrestled for Saitama Sakae High School, but dropped out to go pro. Also his last name is Terunofuji's first name... for what it's worth.
>>247086>Also his last name is Terunofuji's first name... for what it's worth.Mongolians go by patrynomics or more rarely clan names, so this isn't uncommon. They also have Asian name order, so the given name is second.
>>247088Interesting. Terunofuji's name is backwards on Sumodb then.
>>247086Why doesn’t sadogatake have recruiting power like other stables? Seems like a good place to send some athletes given how many ozekis they’ve produced.
>>247090Their stable is a bit out of the way, maybe? Or they just LIKE being hit with golf clubs?
>>247089Mongolian names are weird because they have Asian name order, but patrynoms instead of a surnames, and a person will mostly be referred to by their given name. So for example if you were a Mongolian in Mongolia and happened to run into Kotokenryu, you'd refer to him as Mr. Bilguun, not Mr. Gantulga, and the patrynom would only be used in addition if you needed to distinguish him from someone else whose name was also Bilguun. So chances are someone on sumodb or whoever they sourced it from heard Terunofuji referred to as just "Gan-erdene" and never corrected it later.
>>247090>>247091They're not even located in Tokyo, not as far out as Kisenosato's stable, but they are over in Chiba prefecture. Additionally they've only had three tsukidashi in their entire history from what I've seen, with the most recent being Kotomitsuki who debuted in 1999, so it might be a personal preference through the stable's history to primarily recruit kids out of high school who start from scratch. They have an above average number of guys on the banzuke and 6 elders, so it's not like they're Tamawashi's stable where it's just three guys.
>>247092I refuse to call mongolians anything besides their shikona
I refuse to call Mongolians because I can't afford the long distance.

>>247096>0.5 dai yokozunaIFTFY
>>247097a guy who wins as many as he has as quickly as he has is a dai, the double digit figure is just an inevitable outcome
>>247100We'll see.
>>247101Dai isn't about career totals, its about being dominant. If Hakuho has only managed 10 wins in he lengthy career nobody would consider him dai. Teru's claim to dai has more to do with that stretch in 2020-21 where he managed 5 wins & 3 JYs in a year and a half than it does with his total of 10 Ys.Similarly Onosato put up 5 Ys & 2 JYs in a 9 basho stretch, he is dai, he has been head and shoulders above all other competitors for the past 18 months, only difference between him and Teru is Teru's claim is weak because his period of domination was short while Onosato looks like he could last for many more years being the favorite to win in every basho. It'll only be about another year before people will start to complain about him winning all the time making the sport boring.
>>247085Buhkchuluun is going to Kasugano.
>>247096You're underselling Kataonami. 50% of their rikishi are sekitori.
When you remember that Nephew's November 2024 basho was considered a yusho equivalent, it's crazy that every basho going back to May 2024 has been yusho'd by a Yokozuna.OH WAIT, SORRY, I FORGOT, FUCKING KOTOSHOHO HAD TO RUIN EVERYTHINGHOWHOW ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL DID EVERYONE HAVE TO BEHE EVEN BROKE THE RECORD FOR LOWEST RANKED RIKISHI TO GET A KINBOSHIGOD
>>247116I pretend it does not exist.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVeWCSRwImsZak has gotten the Ura's cyborg knee brace
>>247109>Dai isn't about career totals, its about being dominant.Retarded fanboy take.
>>247116Please go back.
>>247113Neat tochinoshin but MONGOLIAN
>>247146The only thing he has in common is being Kasugano's foreigner.
>>247127that was coolnot a fan of the food focused videos since they all seem the same but that was super entertainingloved seeing some people peeking through the windows and recording with their phonesty anon
>>247127Fucking finally. Shame it's only on the one knee since he has reason to use them on both.
>>247151its the official jsa channel, they post the cross-stable practice sessions before the basho. there should be a yokozuna video practice soon
>>247116Just pretend it didn't happen.
Reminder that the Kitajin kabu is about to be used to run a stable for the first time in history. It was the only kabu to have not been used to run a stable.
i'm fri*king excited for the next basho! :D
takayasu forecasts double digit losses for himself
Onosato says he finds it humiliating to be considered the same rank as a someone who sucks as bad as Horseshitryu
>2024 new OzekiKotonowakaOnosato>2025 new Ozeki...Also Zak should've gone back to his original shikona of Kotokamatani once he hit Ozeki. Fuck LARPing as your grandfather. Forge your own legacy, faggot.

>>247116I will not pretend it didn't happen because its prospects were comical
when we getting the day 1 matches?
cmon dan!
>>2472243 days and 10 hours for the lower division to start and about 5 hours later for Juryo to start according to chatgpt
>>247227sorry, meant the list of match-ups not the bouts themselves
>>247228>apologizing to chatgpt
>>247224Pretty sure they're set in stone the moment the banzuke comes out but I can't remember how it's done. Something about the highest ranked guy fights the lowest Sanyaku, then it's worked out downwards. You could probably look at the day one matches from September, see what ranks fought what, and copy paste it to this basho since the Sanyaku is the same size.
How many wins do you think Dan will get this time around? 11 or a different number?This is Dan's 3rd basho in the upper section of the banzuke so the guys he is competing with must be starting to get familiar with his game and him with theirs, will that make a difference or are we looking at 11 again?
>>24723311 but one of them will be against Zak and one of the yokozuna (the other will pull out by week 2) so there will fierce arguments over whether he deserves ozeki
>>247234>Losing to 4 shitters>OzekiNah. What's dumb is that an 11-4 would put him at 33 wins. Meanwhile Onosato got Ozeki on 34 but because of how things fell he had two yusho in that. Dan could realistically get to 35 wins with a 13-2 and still not get a single yusho.
Chris seems to be putting together pre-made, almost completed obituaries for guys who are nearing the end of their careers, ones that can be quickly updated and published as soon as the retirement announcement comes along, first Tamawashi and now Takayasu, I guess we'll be seeing Ryuden soon too, along with Shodai, Mitakeumi, Kagayaki, Sadnoumi…
Speaking of Danzeki, Spiffy's video on the topic just dropped.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHGrhNKDte4
>>247235post your yfw face when horse goes 15-0 but loses to Meisei in the playoff

>>247241just block spain flags when we move to sp
>>247244That faggot switches his VPN around so he can pretend he isnt totally alone and hated by everyone He actually thinks we cant tell lol
>>247245You're insane
>>247241Why would you put Dan in quotes when Aonishiki is the alias?
>>247248Only the shikona matters, everything else is fake.
Onosato zensho yusho incoming
>>247251Nah
>>247252>my three career tournaments in juryo followed by injury and a decade wasted futilely trying to regain salary status
>>247253Truly a classic sumo career arc
>>247233Dan comes back substantially larger and stronger every basho, so anyone who considers themselves "familiar with his game" is in for a surprise. Remember Dan's first contest with Zak, Dan trying and failing to shove the big guy's enormous bulk out of the ring, but the next time Dan faced off with Zak, Dan was capable of handling all that mass.So Dan should be able to beat Onosato this time around, their last contest was pretty much just a slipitoshi loss, not really an overwhelming victory by Onosato, I see Dan beating him this time,
>>247256Just shut the fuck up.
>>247255When Roga takes over the stable they'll go out to some restaurant with Nabatame working there waddling around serving tables for one of the stable youtube's holographic smellovision videos
>>247257Say that to my face, motherfucker!
The Danposter and the guy who chimps out every time someone Danposts are the same guy
>>247233I mean, he had so many bashos already go 11-4, another one would be too much it's just too unlikely to happen. What do they call this fallacy?
>>247260See >>247247
>>247261Kenny Rogers
Odds are up for the 'sho
According to Spiffy, the odds of an Ozeki promotion seem to spike if your best basho of your run is the last one, so a 12-3 would make a promotion very likely. 11-4 isn't happening though.
>>247266>Zak's winrate this year is 50.6%>He also picked up an injury last basho that's likely to make him drop out of this basho at some point>"Yeah, he's the 3rd most likely to yusho"What crack are they smoking?
>>247267he will get promoted on 11-4, that was already announced after the september basho
>>247269It wasn't. It was the opposite.
>>247268>onosato won 3 of the last 4 bashos>odds only slightly higher than a guy who has won none of the past 4 and is averaging less than 8 wins over that spanthere are definitely a lot of questionable calls within the initial odds, normally the gamblers end up correcting that and the odd shift on early wagering, but i doubt sumo gets enough bets placed for that to happen much in a western sports book
>>247271Bookies need bets to cover the winners and make money.The question they ask is: what odds are going to get someone to make this bet?That's what they're trying to get. Not the most scientifically accurate odds.
>>247271I like how you excluded Hoshoryu's yokozuna run to make him look as bad as possible. In reality you Onosato has won 3 of the last 6 while Hoshoryu has won 1 and got a yusho equivalent in another. And to be quite desu with you Hoshoryu's performance last basho would've been considered a yusho equivalent for a yokozuna run too. That's 3 "yusho" for Hosh in the last 6 basho.Also if we exclude Hoshoryu's injury bashos as yokozuna he's averaged 12.5 wins per basho while Onosato has averaged 12. Hoshoryu IS only marginally behind Onosato to win the yusho. Don't forget that September went to a playoff which went to a monoii (see: based Kakuryu).
How do you view this era compared to the last one?Are Redditshoryu and Onosato better than Redditnoreddit?
>>247277Reddit reddit reddy red reddit reddit. Reddit reddit? Reddit.
>>247277Teru wasn't such much an era as it was people hoping his knees let him fight.

>>247270I'm not going to dig up six week old Japanese newspaper articles for you because you can't even read Japanese anyway, but you're wrong.
>>247285Hosh spends 90% of his effort making sure he can compete with OnosatoOnosato just wins
>>247286According to what was posted here, they didn't. >>245889
>>247285If Horse is better than Onosato because of their head-to-head records then Dan is better than horse for the same reason and so are Ichiyamamoto & Atamifuji
>>247204THAT'S what he find humiliating?
Yikes
>>247288All that translation was saying was that Dan's 33 wins over 3 tournaments following September didn't count because his rank for Natsu was too low, which everyone except total noobs already knew.Don't take a translation that renders his name as "Yasuseinishiki" too literally, if you want to understand whats going on you will need better translation software or learn to read and comprehend Japanese.
>>247291>Chiyonofuji 1-2-12And?
>>247292So the bit where it specifically says "a significantly stronger performance will be required to be promoted after the Kyushu Tournament." is actually referring to the September tournament? Is that what you're tying to tell me?
>>247291Americans average 11 wins in Yokozuna debuts Japanese average 12mongs 9.5
>>247294"significantly stronger" refers to making 11-4 at M9 vs at sekiwake
>>247296Can't tell if braindead or trolling.

>>247294Looks like Henry Cejudo's coach
>>247224>>247232If you watch the Spiffy video on the topic you can pretty much calculate what the first and 2nd day contests will be, sanyaku matchups can pretty easily be figured out for the first week+
>>247299Looks like if Nabatame had never joined Ozumo but remained a fan.

>>24726620:1 on WMH is a fucking disgrace considering he's the only one on that list to have never contended a yusho. Hell I don't even think he's been close.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yScA4aT1OIUSome open training video from a couple hours ago.Im fairly new to this. Is there a name for the practice exercise they do after the practice bouts?A rikishi pushes another a few times across the dohyo and then the pushed rikishi switches places and "beats" the one that was resisting who falls and does a small flip on the groundIt seemed more perfromative (even the pushing) than real training.Seen in that video at the 6 minutes mark
>>247352Butsukari (or butsukari-geiko). It's not performative, it's actually the hardest thing they do.
>>247353>It's not performative, it's actually the hardest thing they do.i seeyeah i might have judged it too fast, at 11 minutes or so they just put a dude through the fucking ringerdude was dying on his feet after every "round" for lack of a better word and they had him keep going
>>247354(me)Google butsukari, get picrelOkay i guess ill search for butsukari-geiko
Anyone have the video of Harumafuji lending his chest to Terunofuji and he hits him with a broom? It seems to have been scrubbed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tgyyy6Ctfes
>>247354With butsukari-geiko, the man being pushed decides how hard he's going to resist you. Shoving a 300 or 400 pound man across the ring is hard enough if he's a ragdoll, it's a lot like the charging practice American footballers do. However, if the man knows your strengths and weaknesses intimately and knows exactly how to make you struggle more, it can become extremely difficult. It also functions like a drop set in weightlifting, as you get more and more exhausted he can reduce the resistance so it never becomes impossible, but always stays at the edge of what you can endure. You also have to do it at the end of your grueling training session, first thing in the morning before you've had anything to eat. It's not just the hardest thing they do, it's possibly the hardest form of routine training done in any sport.
>watch the new sumo association training session>Daiesho is chest lending AGAIN even though that's how he hurt his calf and that still hasn't healedI hate it
Kirishima is looking really solid, I would bet on him doing his now normal yoyoing of shit basho into good one. I think he's getting 10 wins minimum. Daiesho is probably going to 9-6 and 8-7 his way back up until he hits his new ceiling with the top of maegashira being more crowded with talent than they used to.
whats up with chris randomly doing vids on tamawashi, takayasu and ura? does he have some inside info about their retirement in 2026?
>>247361He read their minds and know they will retire soon to join Hakuho in his anti-NSK agenda
>>247358Yeah i just watched the vid of the post above yours tooI guess that the times i had seen it before it wasn't super serious and it was only a couple "rounds" before moving to another wrestlerBut seriously the poor dude on the vid i first posted... holy fuckSame with Terunofuji in that other video, they really get tested.Is as you put it even if the dude just "stands" there and glides you are still pushing 300pounts the moment he digs the hell in....Well thats what i come to this thread for, im learning a bunch of shit
>>247366This ones intense toohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juEVyJvi79g&t=286s
>>247360He'll start 0-1 but he has a chance to pick up a kinboshi from Hoshoryu
>>247356why do the mongs all act like they're uncivilized barbarians who were raised in a barn? the ones who come over to do sumo are all ruling class ones from the ulaanbaatar fancy families
>>247370>Why do sumo wrestlers act like sumo wrestlersYou're retarded and your bait is weak.
>>247350If Zak ends up kabob& then that increased Dan's promotion chances substantially, the bosses don't like empty slots at the upper end of the banzuke, they think they sell more tickets, merch, etc. if they have more guys at the top ranks
>>247372>muh empty slotsHow many times must we tell you to stop perpetuating this myth? We have three ozeki currently, and we only need two to make a banzuke.
torikumis have arrived
>>247373I don't even believe that myth about people caring if ozekis are on the banzuke or not. Ozekis are only especially interesting if they're at risk of demotion or if they won the previous basho, nobody is on the edge of their seat wondering if the ozeki will clear 10 winsBut the pro journalists repeat the empty slot stuff all the time so it seems like its a thing. And the JSA definitely gives out promotions on weak and not-quite qualifying scores when they have empty slots to fill, we all just saw it happen with Hosh, so you should expect to see Dan promoted on any double digit score, especially if Zak ends up with less than 8 wins
>>247376>But the pro journalists repeat the empty slot stuff all the timeJust because journalists are stupid doesn't mean you have to be either.
>>247378They were right when they said Hosh was up for promotion due to the empty yokozuna slot even though his previous basho was only a JY, that was the last time they made the claim and they were correct so its safe to presume they know what they're saying now
>>247370Being the fanciest family in Ulaanbaatar is like being the fanciest family in the projects.
Dan keeps on getting bulkier and bulkier, but he doesn't grow tiddies so you know that his added weight is all muscle. Eventually he is going to get strong enough to overpower Onosato, its only a matter of time.
>>247379Hosh and Zak were both up for yokozuna at the same time. Had they both gotten it and Teru not retired, we would've had 3 yokozuna, meaning there still would've been an odd number. Neither were up for yokozuna solely because of an "empty yokozuna slot" because that is not a concept that actually exists.
>>247346His lower back has been fucked for the last few bashos, I'm assuming it's gotten worse.
>>247346Since he is the bottom man in makuuchi, if he misses all 15 days is he going to skip juryo and get demoted down to makushita 1
>>247386No, nobody's gone from makuuchi straight to makushita since 1928.
>>247382They were softer on Hoshoryu's promotion than to some Ozeki who didn't get promoted when there were Yokozunas.
>>247395Maybe but if you ACTUALLY FUCKING READ you'll understand that's completely irrelevant to the question of whether "slots" and "banzuke balance" exist (they don't).
>>247389none have put up 0-15 from m18 either
>>247397The exact rank is rarely important when it's the person at the bottom of the banzuke, and mostly comes up when they do stuff like Shishi where he got a 7-8 so they technically lowered him a rank on paper without demoting him to juryo because nobody else from juryo deserved the promotion.
>>247396>reeeee what i say is extra important because i used capslockyelling or the equivalent only works in face to face confrontations because of the implied threat of violent chimpouts in the case that the yeller isn't appeased. since 4chan does not meet the "face to face" condition needed, your implied yelling carried no weight here, punch a wall, throw your phone out the window, or whatever. we don't care, can't hurt us.
>>247400YOU ARE SUPER FUCKING GAY
>>247389even that doesn't look too reliable a precedent in the context of being a year after the Osaka Sumo mergerif sumodb has the correct data the guy was being bounced up and down by all the rank adjustments and readjustmentseg J3 to Ms7 on a winning record in 1927
>>247400>In this moment I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessings. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.
Hakuoho is a tough opening day matchup for Horseryu who already has a well established history of opening day failure.
>>247386No he won't lmao. Not only would the JSA never do that but lately they've shown a willingness to give rikishi with terrible scores a softer landing. Daieisho only landed at M10 with his 0-0-15 from S1e, and Gonoyama only went -10 on his 1-14. A kyujo M18e would probably land at J10.
>>247404In the last 6 basho the only time Hoshoryu has lost on opening day was a basho that he dipped due to injury. Man these threads really can be improved by filtering the word horse can't they.
>>247404Hoshoryu has never lost to Hakuoho. Onosato, meanwhile, has a losing record against Hakuoho. You are getting more and more pathetic with every attempt, Anon.
>List of rikishi for whom winning this basho would be acceptableOnosatoHoshoryuKotozakuraAonishikiTakayasuWTKAnyone else winning would be an affront to my sensibilities.
>>247409No Kiri? Oho?
>>247410Not him, but Oho looks like he's in terrible form. He was losing to Tamashoho in the recent all-stables vids.
>>247410KiriSHITma is over it and won't achieve anything for the rest of his career, and Oho just isn't ready for it. If Oho can find Sanyaku consistency I'd be fine with him getting a yusho a couple basho from now, but I wanna see consecutive double digits from him before that point.
>>247294I need to see more of this guy, he's unintentionally hilarious with his hands
>>247406he lost half of his last 10 openers>this loss doesn't count because reasons, he had a doctor's note an sheeeiiitwhat about when he won on opening day and then quit the basho, how come you count that one and not the loss?
>Heh, if I use cutoff points that favour my opinions on rikishi I can paint them as poorly as possible, looks like I winAdopt a trip so I can filter you.
Seems like Hakuoho should have a pretty good chance at beating Hosh on day 1, anyone who can beat Onosato twice is definitely good enough to hand Hosh a loss.
>>247422Hakuohos shoulder is gone and he will barely KK
>>247381And what about Shishi?
>>247411
>>247422>Seems like Aonishiki should have a pretty good chance at beating Onosato, anyone who can beat Hosh twice is definitely good enough to hand Onosato a loss.
Does anyone here play the Sumo Orical card app? I'm desperate for the Oho code. I hope to Christ Oho can keep his sanyaku ranking. Can't download the app in my region to get the code unfortunately. If anyone has the Grand Sumo app can you let me know what it says on the banner?

>I told Shishi to only train foot sliding and shiko and he actually did it lmaoooo look at the fucker's legs loooool
someone on the nhk show mentioned takakeisho's skills as a coach showing through in takanosho's performance so I looked up the records of the rest of the stable and it seems like takakeisho might really have strong skills in that area, nearly all the lower rankers put up 6-1s or 5-2 except the guy who kyujo'd and the jonidan guy who lost to koga. 5 out of 5 KKs in makushita and higher. Tokiwayama moved up a bunch in the stable power ranking too
imagine if you could put takerufuji's upper body on shishi's legs
>>247435Rumour has it that Takanosho picked up some ACL damage and isn't going to fare too well this basho. Also Takakeisho simply joining a stable as a trainer would likely inspire any bunch of fatsos to work harder. And lets not act like Takanosho doesn't sometimes spike basho really hard. He beat Teru once last July then came close in the playoff.

>>247352>Is there a name for the practice exercise they do after the practice bouts?butsukari keiko>It seemed more perfromative (even the pushing) than real trainingDepends on the context.

sumo is back tonight
stay up until ungodly hours just to watch it almost live and shitpost with the rest of the sumo autists or go sleep at a reasonable hour and watch it the next dayLive is cruel
>>247513I might stay up late to watch my own son at the Kokugikan, but these jobbers don't deserve it.
>>247492>>247435There is a reason that Keisho's nickname used to be "the sumo genius". Without that brain there is no way his sumo body was making it to Ozeki.
>>247516>the genius strategy: just push lmao

>>247518He's right though, Takakeisho was shit.

>>247524Takakeisho had a limited understanding of the sport, nobody told him you were allowed to grapple.
>>247526It's amazing the confidence with which people like you post.
>>247522oh no no no
>>247527k
>>247528What did you think you were demonstrating here?
>>247527It's amazing that instead of simping for an e-girl like ordinary freaks, you choose to simp for Takakeisho.
>>247529>>247531See, this goes back to >>247518Not everyone here has negative feelings and reactions towards everyone and everything around them. But /sp/ especially has the stigma of you must absolutely fucking shit on everything and everyone possible. Anything posted in a positive light has to be derided for the lulz, because appreciating something on a deeper level and trying to understand how they got there is cringe.When I was new to sumo I greatly disliked Takakeisho, for how he looked, moved, and "simple" style. I grew an appreciation for his sumo over time. The timing, pinpoint thrusts and overall movement were sublime the few times he was healthy. His ability to stand people up and knock them back was wild. There is a reason Daieisho and Takanosho both respect the man. With similar styles, and arguably better bodies for sumo, they have been beaten by the hamster.Anyways, If I was going to simp for anyone it would be Kiribayama.

It is presently early Sunday morning in Japan, the cool wrestlers, Ryuden, Asanoymama, Abi and the rest of their gang and presently in Da Club chilling with their Kyushu hoes and drinking champagne while their nerd sissy opening day opponents are "getting a good night's rest" before eventually losing to the chads.
Oh fuck I only just realised, I'm off work today so can actually watch the entire first day. I'm a Britbong but working night shifts in the run up to Christmas so this works perfectly. Gonna go get a crate of lager so I can watch fatslap with my friends on 4chan.Also I never did get around to making that bingo. I format my computer and forgot to save the list somewhere. Maybe I'll quickly go back through the threads, I posted most of the things I put in it.
>>247537I get Oshima laughing because he seems like a well humoured guy, but did Kisenosato just crack a smile???
>>247549>I'm a BritbongWe can tell by the fact that you think this is your personal blog, Neville.
>>247552Nevilleposting is so Haru, we accuse people of being Spanish now.
JSA reports that Kyushu ticket sales are the best they've been so far this century and advertising banner sales are better than they've ever been before. This is a big boost to the reputation of Kaio who is the regional director for the Kyushu basho and is considered the favorite to be the next JSA boss
>>247554>the best they've been so far this centuryuhhh chrissisters??? our hakuresponse???
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnz0VyIMC3oLatest Takasago slop features Chiyoshoma and Hoshoryu, and includes multiple bouts between Hoshoryu and Asanoyama who admittedly by that point was probably a bit tuckered out from earlier fights. It's noteworthy that Hoshoryu specifically calls out Asanoyama when Asakoryu is right there.
>>247549Im gonna make an effort to stay up tonight too
>>247560How long until juryo starts, roughlyThis would be my first time trying to stay up and im already yawning thinking about it
>>247561Maybe around 8 hours from now?
>>247563Okay thats not happening then
>>247561Probably around 8 hours or soDepends how the lower divs get on
>Day 1 is hardWhos predicting drama this time?
>>247566Day 1 will be even harder for Meisei considering he's kyujo.
>>247564Imagine the dick Kotoshoho could suck with those lips.
>>247567Yeah it'll be really tough on Terutsuyoshi as well.
https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2025/11/08/articles/20251108s00005000171000c.htmlhorseryu is now trying to claim he didn't win the last basho because he was injured and had a bad back.
>>247577he has to do something about that nasty leg acne, really ugly and diseased looking. nobody wants to see that on a yokozuna.
>>247577Did he? Or did Tatsunami say it?
>>247577>>247579Tatsunami said it. That said, everyone knows the body is one of the core pillars of sumo, so this isn't an excuse, but admittance that proper health of the body was not achieved. It's an admission of the mistake.
>>247578imagine your in the front row and zak or onosato or dan throws horseryu out of the ring and he lands on you and that diseased pox filth part of his leg touches you. I'd probably start vomiting right on the spot
The acne is from the steroids, relax faggot.
>>247584His level of obsession is reaching levels of schizo that Chris only dreams of.
>>247584Why else would a 26 year old man have acne
>>247589surely not the daily healthy amounts of chanko
>>247589American junk food diets can do that to you.
>>247589Some people just naturally have acne and it's annoying.
M*dnight just said Abema coverage starts in 13 minutes.
what time do basho's usually start?
>>247595I don't know why you need him to tell you that.
>>247596Usually ~9am Japan time give or take. Depends on the day.
>>247597I just thought my friends on 4chan might not know but would like to.
>Koga is Jonidan 100Is this a lucky sign??? Also he has no matches scheduled on sumodb, is he kyujo or are they just not listed for guys that low?
>>247605He competes tomorrow, not today
>>247606That sucks, I'm at the mercy of work as to whether I'll be able to watch his bouts.
>>247596This is from 2017 but the times have been the same. Day 15 starts early because they have a bunch of presentations and speeches to do. All times are Japan time of course.

The sideshow is over. New Futagoyama honsloppa in a few hours. Will Sakagami edit out all the footage of Mita cheerfully preparing for this basho? Personally I'm hoping to see scenes of Koga polishing his rapid fire tsuppari that he employed so brilliantly this tournament.
>>248364you mean Sakaue.. it will be so stupid to see cheerful Mita in upcoming videos, same as last pre-basho video of oyakata saying everyone is healthy...
>>248365Is that what it calls him in the subs? I think he'll edit some of the Mita stuff out but who knows, he can be pretty inconsiderate kek
Why can't Hoshoryu beat Aonishiki?
ARE WE BACK
I was wrong, futagoslop is out on the 24th.
>>248367that's his name 坂上>>248368no clue why are people so hyped about it. there's always that 1 guy you have difficulty to overcome. Far better yokozuna than nephew had a kryptonite at some point
>>248368he keeps trying to slap him down and it never works.
>>248368Aonishikis humility bow stance is something arrogant mongol will never triump over
All the major Japanese media outlets are now confirming Dan's impending ozeki promotion. Lmao at everyone in this thread posting about how he wasn't going to get ozeki this basho. LOL IN YOUR STUPID FACE
So the current meta is getting a gaijin, preferably one with wrestling experience, from some country that's getting invaded, therefore ensuring that motivation to succeed is through the roof?
>>248379venezuelan rikishi when?
Best case scenario for the rest of Roga's career is that he keeps injuries at a minimum like he has been and just lives in lower makuuchi for a decade. It was beautiful seeing him close on his 8-7 after hitting 8-4 a couple days ago.
Glad to see Asanoyama will be back in the top division. I liked his bout with fujiryoga
whoever made this in the /sp/ thread, it's been stolen by r/sumomemes and likely to win their meme of the month
>>248383I am the anon who did it, and I don't really care
that does not match at all lol, used to be Teru sitting below this bunch of sekitori
Is Ajigawa fastest new beya to yusho?
>>248385Why does he look like he's had a stroke? Hoshoryu certainly didn't hit him that hard!
>>248384im the anon that stole it and i don't really care either
>>248383>>248389I'm an anon who witnessed all of that happen and I had this to say
So is Dan getting promoted to Ozeki?
>>248392Yep
>>248392If today's results wouldn't get him to Oozeki, then nothing will
>>248392The playoff was an exchange bout. Dan goes to Yokozuna and Hoshoryu gets demoted to Sekiwake.
>>248398Oh ok, thanks Anon!
>Oho managed a 7-8 His performance seemed terrible, so I was a little surprised, but he usually seems to avert disaster somehow in the end now that I think about it. Frustrating rikishi to follow.
Hoshoryu, the idea versus Dan, the man
So what will the sanyaku look like next basho?Something like this?:Hoshoryu Y OnosatoKotozakura O AonishikiKirishima S OhoTakayasu K Wakamotoharu
>>248406>it's another Takayasu Komusubi episode
>>247047Best year of sumo since 2021. Next year will be exciting with the likes of Goshima, Kazuma, and Asahifuji making it into makuuchi, while a lot of old veterans fall off the banzuke.I predict no Yokozuna or Ozeki promotions in 2026. Onosato will dominate, some of the newcomers will win one cup, and Hoshoryu will not win his first basho as a Yokozuna.
Almost a year later, and I still haven't figured out how to draw those horse-lips.
>Aonishiki, listen>!>I'm going to fall without resisting...>But, Kotozakura, your knees...!>Shut up, kid. Only you can stop that horse-fucking mongoloid son of a bitch from winning this tournament. I'm putting all my hopes on you...>Tetas Cuatro-seki...>You're a real Ozeki... AAAAAAIIEEEEEEE!!!
>>248414What page of the karma sutra is that move on?
>>248406Wont it be Takayasu at S and Oho at K because of their records?
Ichiyamamato maths highest of all the potential Komusubi but he wasn't in the joi. Yoshi maths higher than Ura but they won't want to overpromote a newbie into the Sanyaku. Does this mean WMH and Ura will be our next Komusubi?
>>248418Oh wait I'm retarded, Oho went 7-8, he's 100% K1e.
Whats this all about?
Can't wait for tomorrow matches
>>248387Otowayama brought home a yusho-equivalent in under 6 months
>>248416Few pages after this
>>248421Yeah I closed the stream after Dan beat Zak. Can't wait to watch his playoff against Hoshoryu tomorrow.
Do you think Kisenosato is going to go searching for some desperate Ukrainian war child in the hopes of finding the next Dan?
>>248427>Aminishiki-sensei, this isn't weed
>>248427Already wasted
>>248425Yes. He will ride the war torn ukraine on a horse looking for a child with seven scars
>>248427he's even squinting his eyes to look more japanese... so much hinkaku...
>>248423lmfao horseshitryu humiliation ritual. Onosato is the true winner for not showing up.>>248371>new futagoyslopNow we're talking.>>248383>>248389>>248390I witnessed the meme being created, but I did not know that redditors stole it because I am not homosexual.
>>248368Aonishiki is simply a better wrestler than Hoshoryu. He did international level wrestling before sumo, and has similar strenght. Onosato can beat aonishiki by brute power but hoshoryu doesn't have that.
>>248420that's some straight up jibberish or some insider jokes.>>248427blinded by the success..
>>248420That horse is Jantar Mantar, he won the G1 Mile Championship race last night and just barely set a new race record.
>>248427Whats the drinking age in ukraine? Is he even legal?Also with that win does he have enough $ to get his family to japan ?
He's winning!
>>248444>Whats the drinking age in [slavic country]?Probably 13
>>248410egoraptor moment
After shattering the record for fastest promotion to sanyaku from a maezumo debut and then fastest sekiwake promotion, Dan how now obliterated Kotooshu's record for the quickest promotion to ozeki from a non-tsukedashi start.
Hosh will hopefully be using the upcoming tour to get some more ring time with Aoni.He has to figure something out in the pre-belt part of the grapple, because he is getting beat in one of the places that he is usually the best at.I don't think we will be seeing the Asashoryu style of showing up at the stable of wrestlers who he lost to in the last basho, and beating the shit out of them to form a game plan for next basho and intimidate.Terunofuji definitely employed the tours to call out his weak matchups to learn, and with Onosato out this is the perfect time to leverage that privilege. Dropping important matches in the first couple days and then throwing dudes is pretty classic Hoshoryu though, and it was good to see him still able to employ his style on almost everyone except Aoni.Actually same with Kirishima, his scrap to get to the front of the mawashi and force out style looks like it's coming back nicely.
>>248453>one of the places that he is usually the best at……against japs who don't have a western wrestling background. And Hosh's lanky physique gives away a lot of advantage against Dan's higher density and lower CG. Hosh needs to get himself into the kind of shape uncle was in, his workout routine is weak. We've all seen him in the Tastunami training videos standing around doing little to nothing in morning practice, just wasting time. Sure he goes to a trainer later in the day, but that doesn't give him an excuse to waste morning practice.
>>248454Would you like to discuss this or push your theories and meme?Honestly the worst part about the current slop era is it gives poster like you something to point at when it fits their chosen narrative.Power is not Hoshoryu's problem against Aonishiki and I no longer know why I'm replying seriously to you.
Ottsuke
>>248453My memory might be bad here but in 4 matches has Hosh managed any grips on Dans belt?
>>248445holy shit
>>248445>horseryu>winning
>>246531Astute observation, Hosh was not properly prepared for this basho.
Was Dan hugging Anosho or was that someone from another stable? I can't tell if its him or not.
>>246566>wasting
Horseryu finally broke his silence spoke briefly to the presshttps://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2025/11/24/articles/20251123s00005000418000c.html豊昇龍は先場所に次いでまたも決定戦で敗戦。安青錦とは前日含め初対戦から4連敗で、苦手意識は払拭できなかった。 横綱に昇進して5場所で優勝なし。支度部屋で一度は取材を断ったものの、帰り道では「来場所、リベンジだ。まあ、悔しいからね。これ以上は嫌だな」と本音を漏らした。 大の里の突然の休場で本割は不戦となり、決定戦ではスタミナを温存できる有利な状況だったが「あれで体が冷めた」と準備期間が長かったことがアダになった。Horseryu spoke to the media after his loss in the Kyushu basho makuuchi playoff. Including the day before, this was his fourth consecutive loss to Aonishiki, and he was unable to shake off the feeling that Aonishiki was superior to him.Since being promoted to yokozuna, Horseryu has yet to win a tournament. He initially declined interview requests in the dressing room, but on the way home he let slip his true feelings, saying, "Next tournament, I'll get my revenge. Its vexing. I don't want it to say more than this."Due to Onosato's forfeit, Horseryu was put in the advantageous position of conserving his stamina for the playoff match, but the long preparation period proved to be a disadvantage, as he said, "My body cooled down."
>>248470born to sweat
>>248470much thinner but still looks incredibly greasy
is there like a name for when they leave the ring and grab the salt and wipe down and shit? It gets me hype when they do it
>>248453Based Kirishima poster.
>>248438I thought there were only three awards given out, why is this showing five
>>248475Special prizes can be given to multiple wrestlers each basho.
shame they skipped the july basho this year
>>245713Dan is the MC of sumo. The Next 43 years of sumo are going to be really frustrating for you if you don't like seeing Dan.
The post basho press conference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5b0CJfZASIAuto generated subs are fairly bad, if you don't speak nip you might not get much out of it
>>248468>Next tournament, I'll get my revenge.kek.No he won't.
>>248482He'll hide and lay in wait in the hanimachi and then when Dan walks by he'll whack him with a metal folding chair. The whole revenge foreshadowing thing make it seem a lot more like WWE.>its le grudge match!!
It won't be long until the first Chris video of the post basho season drops
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0SMHEbKrKU
>>248483as soon as they both step onto the dohyo a giant steel cage falls out of the floating roof
>>248445the cowboy hatholy fuck anon
>>248456nice pic
>>248444>Whats the drinking age in ukraine?Drinking age?
>>248451Can you imagine if Dan wins the next two yusho and breaks the record for least time at Ozeki before rope? That would genuinely make Onosato look like a fucking chump.
>>248445Kek
>>248491if he wins the next one, id not be suprised if he only needs a good jun at minimum to pick up yokozuna
>>248491He has to beat Onosato for the first time before that happens kek
>>248494He already "beat" Onosato for the next two basho this time around, anon ;)
>>248494>Dan can't win a yusho without beating Onosato!Uhhh didn't he literally just do that? Lmao what the fuck crack are you smoking? Also Dan won that match but the nearest shinpans were likely Kisenosato was biased, and Futagoyama who was drunk.
>>248495Right, I forgot about the shoulder thing. I'm looking forward to January.
>>248496>also Dan wonI can tell you're really angry because you're cursing like a woman, but this cope is just embarrassing. Aonishiki deserves better fans.
>>248496Also, he needs to beat Onosato to make him look like a chump, not yuusho.
>>248498Sato's left foot rolled over well before Dan left the ring. If Dan hadn't won the cup you could argue I was coping, but there's no reason for me to do that here. Dan beat Sato but the judges were too shit to notice it.
>>248494Being able to beat 'Sato will make things much easier on him, but it's not an explicit requirement. It is the random odd loss or now even getting henka'd that will stand in the way of things.Naturally there's also avoiding career altering injuries but those go without saying, and besides diving a few times he's stayed clear of those pretty well.
God this basho was so fucking good.
>>248502about halfway through I wasn't sure what to think but it sure rounded out, even with 'sato missing the final day
>>248503Sato missing the last day made it better if anything. The Shinto gods tried to hand Hoshoryu a freebie but the march of the White Man was too strong.
>>248504It would have been cooler if he fought but it did open the door to a number of hilarious outcomes that we managed to avoid.
>>247073Fucking hell Akebono could scratch his knees while stood up.
Anyone do better than 13th? ;)
The slop floodgates have been opened.
>>248478Dan-san is hardly the problem. The next 43 years of sumo are going to suck because of Spanish anons who power bottom for Dan in every thread
Schriszoid has spoken!
the soi of sumo looking like a salty bastard
>>248500You are coping about him never beating Onosato. As is the other guy who has imagined that Aonishiki getting yokozuna with Onosato out injured, without ever beating him, would make the latter look like a "chump" somehow.
>>248516yeah that was soi tsukebito moment, but i guess he was just happy knowing how much meat they're gonna get
DANFAG ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>248472The fat is leaving his body as rapidly as possible: in the form of oil exuded through the pores
>>248417It should be, Oho is a guaranteed demotoid
Aonishiki
>>248470Takakeisho died. This is some guy they hired to pretend he is Takakeisho. No one buys it
>>248481Of course Shishi is a fat ugly piece of shit and is overshadowed by the good looking muscle man Aonishiki. This is so rigged.
>>248528don't be mean to our retard
Futagoyama status?
>>248531Niggatame is coming back next basho. He is going to climb to Makuuchi by the end of next year.
>>248534I hate this image so much
Why does Enho want to become an elder so badly? He reminds me of those people who come out of school and go straight into teaching without any real life experience to impart.
>>248536Guaranteed post-sumo career. What else is he going to do?
>>248536Because he's 31 and spent all of his youth doing sumo? Why wouldn't he want to get a job doing stuff related to what he has been doing for the past 8 years?
>>248536Elder stock needing a minimum of 5 years combined at sekitori (for those without higher levels of performance) is for that exact reason. If he makes that 30th basho at juryo, then he'll have spent 5 years as a salaried wrestler and can impart that life experience on wrestlers he coaches.
>>248536Maybe he likes sumo
>>248539Are there any current oyakata who's highest rank was juryo
>>248543Futagoyama
>>248544yes funny meme.
>>248528No he's not. Shishi will always overshadow Aonishiki in my eyes, he makes me feel represented as a retard I mean as a white person.>>248534Nabatame is the next yokozuna.

>>248552Wait so Oho's stablemaster is a fucking Juryo pleb? No wonder he hasn't reached Yokozuna yet.
>>248552Not anymore, he retired
>>248552>alright, let me impart on you my extensive wisdom of how to get stuck at mid-JuryoI mean still probably a dream for some of the sandanme shitters, but it sounds funny

>>248507Having extremely wide shoulders increases your reach. Doing pushups gets you the wide shoulders

Also what the fuck pushups have nothing to do with your shoulders. They're a chest and tricep exercise.
Ajigawa's status as genius coach confirmed by the fact that everyone in his stable KK'd except the one guy who can't make it out of jonokuchi. Dan's win should turn Ajigawa into a recruiting magnet, they'll have the pick of the litter amongst this year's class of graduates - and just in time for March debuts.
>>248535everything to do with futagoyama is revolting
>Dan takes Onosato out of the picture for a few months with a shoulder injury>Meanwhile Hosh still can't figure out how to beat him>Dan makes his debut at Yokozuna in May
>>248561Right looks like a mix of Atamin and Hakuoho.
>futagoyama is only 48that's a rough 48
>>248553>Wait so Oho's stablemaster is a fucking Juryo pleb? No wonder he hasn't reached Yokozuna yet.Yeah, he forgot to put any points into background.So despite having the ideal sumo physique and genes, he’s still been playing on hard mode.He spent the first part of his career in Covid lockdown so he had no one to train against as a young kid.He’s basically been doing his whole career single handed.Imagine how good he could have been if he’d gone to a real stable?
>>248564That's one hell of a picture of yourself to have on the front pages if you're Hosh
I just thought this picture of Koga was funny.
>>248561Is Akoura half favela nig or something
>>248574He looks a little like young Takayasu. Dan cracked up the press at his press conference:>Press: What are you going to eat today?>Dan: I'll think about that after I've had some ramen
>>248575you got a clip?
>>248553>>248568absolute waste of good genes right there, 3 bros and only Oho made it to sekiwake, mudoho shat the bed when he finally reached juryou and is now falling in makushita and the oldest bro is similar to wakatakamoto, eternal makushitter.>>248572*rocky soundtrack intensifies

Which happens first?:•Hosh figures out how to beat Dan•Dan figures out how to beat Yosh•Yosh figures out how to beat Hosh
>>248581I'd say Dan/Yosh, Hosh looks helpless against Dan and Yosh/Hosh haven't had enough matches yet.

Of the 7 others who debuted at ozeki before their 22nd birthday, All of them eventually made yokozuna. And the list includes Takanohana, Taiho, Kitanoumi, Hakuho, Asashoryu

Why is he holding a giant tiki drink umbrella
>>248589Traditional samurai umbrella
>>248589
>>248564Imagine being horse!Imagine!Truly a fraudzuna.
I'll tell you one thing, and I'm not ashamed to say it. My estimation of Onosato Daiki as a Yokozuna just fucking plummeted.
Kisenosato published an article deeply criticizing HorseSHITryu's approach, including his tachiai and weak training routine: https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2025/11/25/articles/20251125s00005000032000c.htmlThe final tournament of the year saw Aonishiki's stability stand out. He will surely get stronger, and if he can increase his weight, the range and enjoyment of his sumo will expand. Meanwhile, the issues facing both the East and West Yokozuna for the future were brought to light.Hoshoryu suffered consecutive losses to Aonishiki in the final bout and the playoff. In both matches, he showed no strong points, even suggesting a gap in power. Despite desperately thrusting, his opponent slipped underneath and countered him. He was attacked almost like a "Tsume Shogi" (checkmate) puzzle with no attacking moves left. Nothing came out of him. His tachi-ai style, which involves just lightly tapping and standing up, gives a light impression without applying pressure. I believe he should reconsider it.I, too, once had a three-match losing streak against Terunofuji, but I improved my strength by studying my opponent and reviewing my own style. For Hoshoryu, being defeated to this extent may be a chance to change significantly. Since he has high abilities, he should be able to regain his strength with a single trigger, such as correcting his form or his tachi-ai.Onosato injured himself because he was using some part of his body incorrectly. His own body taught him that reality. How he accepts this reality and uses it for the future is key. During this tournament, his body seemed to lose mass day by day, and by the final days, he looked thin, with the muscle in his back seeming depleted. He appears to have suffered considerable damage, both physically and mentally. If he doesn't review his physical condition management and daily keiko approach, he will repeat the same mistakes.
>>248594Damn, good article.
>>248594I can't believe Onosato is wasting away someone feed that guy NOW.
>>248594KisenoGODo, I kneel.
The Yokozuna Deliberation Council has called out Horseryu for his post-bout attack against Takayasu https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2025/11/25/articles/20251125s00005000032000c.html>Regarding Aonishiki, who is certain to be promoted to ozeki, Chairman Oshima Tadamori said, "His determination and hard work are admirable. His hidden fighting spirit is admirable. Considering the current situation in his home country, I have mixed feelings, but I was able to present him with the victory. He has made a great contribution and given hope." Meanwhile, at the Kyushu tournament, Horseryu's attitude on the ring, which sealed the victory in his match against Takayasu on the 12th day, became an issue, but Chairman Oshima explained, "Dignity is important in the sumo world, and it was one of the reasons why the London performance was so popular. There were some comments about Horseryu's attitude, but overall the opinion was that the sumo world as a whole should make an effort to improve the dignity of sumo."
>>248594Onosato, take my chanko
>>248593>gets injured for the first time>it's so fucking over
The only Dan I recognize is from Bulgaria and his tits are huge.
The next basho results of the others who have started their careers with 3 consecutive yushos. Looks like Kaki should be expected to KK in January if he doesn't get injured and withdraw
>>248603>tits are huge.
>>248603Brother>>248605
>>248606God I wish that was me, either of them
>Hoshoryu might intai without a tittle and will be known for his lack of hinkaku and poor performances against maegashittersHoholzuna exposed the Fraudzuna so bad.
>>248594Onosato, please eat your chanko and do your shiko so you can heal on the dohyo.
>>248606Reminds me of the start of Fight Club when he attends that testicular cancer session.>Then... something happened. I was lost in oblivion -- dark and silent and complete.
>>247207When he said that his father made him swear a blood oath on his grandfather's grave that he'd make yokozuna, I knew he would never do it.
>>248617aminishiki's style just perfectly matches aonishki. he couldn't have been recruited better than that.
>>248619The recruitment goes deeper than that. Aminishiki personally took in a war refugee from a distant land who didn't speak even speak his language, and that refugee devoted himself entirely to Japanese culture, language, and sumo, and through his support has accomplished everything he has so far and looks like he might just go even further. It's honestly a beautiful story.
>>248620>Inb4 its revealed that Aonishiki is major bully who torments his juniors in Hokuseiho style
>>248621>WHEN I SHIKO YOU SAY SLAVA UKRAINI
>>248620i think dan was into japanese culture before he was recruited. his japanese alone is praised a lot, he might be an ontaku since childhood.
>>248622>shoves vodka bottle up your ass>"this is not homosexual in anyway"
>>248618His grandfather didn't get it until he was in his 30s, right? Given his performance and accumulating injuries I don't think it's very likely that Zak will do the same, but I feel like people dont bring up that grandpa was ozeki for a long time.
>>248621yes but only out of devotion to Japanese traditional culture
>>248594His comments on Onosato would feel a lot saner coming from someone who didn't turbofuck his entire career with a botched injury recovery.
>>248630I mean, it may be precisely because of that that he got to make those comments.
>>248594the problem is not his tachiai it's what comes after. he can't reach the belt and he's lost. he needs to figure out a way to wrestle him. the way he taps the ground or stands up has fuck all to do with anything.
>>248629I watched this and it sounds like he wants to do the opposite of what the slop channels are and show the rigorous part of sumo. Guess we'll find out what he means by that exactly soon.
>>248633I think there will be less chanko sloppa and more practice videos with an occasional dedicated restaurant/attraction escapade. Konishiki was in the trailer so they might have some videos with him and Musashigawa talking,
When will ajigawa release their slop channel. It seems dumb that they haven’t considering Dan is by far the most popular sekitori with westerners and they could get a foreign supporters club going to rake in the dough.
>>248638NO SEKITORI ALLOWED IN SLOP. THEIR IMAGE MUST BE KEPT CLEAN t nsk
>>248627
I only now realized that Aonishiki got to ozeki from maezumo in less bashos than it took chiyonofuji from his makuuchi debut (and only 2 more than hakuho from his makuuchi debut).
>>248645>10 years without Japanese yushoLel
>>248645starts to get grim once hak retired
>>248646Jesus christ. Nips must have been on suicide watch
>>248638not everyone's after money like tatsunami lol
>>248594Yes yes we all know everyone hates Hosh
I predict Aonishiki will be done in by an alcohol scandal. Or cannabis. Or match fixing.
>>248656>Alcohol scandalLike? Sumo is full of drunks. And no one cared when Onosato force fed people alcohol.
>>248657>Like?Refusing to drink with an elder
>>248657>Like?Drinking too much, or too little, or getting drunk and beating the piss out of a junior. Or sticking a bottle up his asshole and making someone drink from it. >OnosatoJapanese privilege
>>248659>too littleBeing a teetotaler is against sumo rules?
Is there any way to contact Koga directly. I want to send him a work out plan and tell him to put some muscle on because he looks skinny fat.
Excellent Chris video today, he covers the YDC's pronouncements in detail as well as the many criticisms in Kisenosato's article. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5r4W8M4Be8Kisenosato points out a lot of way that the current yokozunas might still improve their performance, but he completely neglects the possibility that seems more and more likely every basho: Dan is a generational talent or possibly even greater and there no matter how hard they try the current crop of yokozunas will inevitably end up second place to Dan. He isn't shattering all sorts of historical sumo records due luck, Dan's ability is far above anything thats been seen in sumo in ages if not ever before.
>the danfaggot is also a chr*s spammerWorst recognizable poster in these threads by far.
>>248664He won't follow it, he already stopped going to the gym with Takahara
>WOW DAN WILL BE THE NEXT CHIYONOFUJI WHO WILL BREAK ALL THE RECORDS, EVEN GOATS! FIRST WHITE YOKOZUNA SLAVA KEKRAINALmao lel. Stop counting the chickens until they hatch.
>>248666dan is good, but we haven't seen him yet fight at ozeki rank a few bashos and people are already making a god out of him. just chill and see how he turns out. Many rikishi looked great, but they could not make it to the top in the end; health and consistency is key for him right now.fucking cannot wait until january basho:nepw would like a revengeonosato will be back healthyaonishiki as a new ozeki zak will be healthy hopefullyyoshinofuji would be aiming for sanyakuasanoyama will be back in makuuchiand hopefully kazuma and kaki faceroll their divison again.
https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2025/11/25/articles/20251125s00005000130000c.htmlDan's playoff victory had the highest TV rating for any sumo match since the 2020 Kyushu finalé. Dan is popular in Japan
>>248671>onosato will be back healthyif he competes he will still be a little gimpy from the injury and weakened from being restricted from exercise during the recovery period. he could utilize the recovery period to focus on improving his lower body or some other aspect of his game, but a lot of his current approach revolves around using that left arm to block or restrict the other guy's right and he might not be too effective if can't do that.if he chooses to get surgery on the injured shoulder he might be out until may
Aonishiki can have little a Yusho as a treat
>>248409I think the July 2024 tournament was probably one the best I've seen since I started watching a decade ago. This year had some great stuff right off the rip even with my favorite 4-titted man choking his only chance to get a Yokozuna promotion and now cosigning himself to the slow, agonizing downward spiral of defeat. We're finally gonna get a white dude with the rope, what a time to be alive.
Dan is an overrated piece of pig shit. I remember people saying the same things about hot young guns but they always flame out in the end. The sumo grind is too much for them. Dan will be slumming it up with Mitakeumi and the other failsons.
>>248625It doesn't matter how long he can hang onto Ozeki with rotating 7-8 and 8-7 scores. The caliber of wrestlers above him is too great and his injuries make victories against wrestlers below him much harder. He's barely hanging onto his peak and it saddens me.
The blue eyed yokozuna
>>248681Looks like a cookie of a baby head
Russians were all corrupt drug addicts who brought shame to sumo
The Aonishiki haters are doing their best to cope with the devastating psychological impact the ozeki's success is having on them. Just in case their valiant efforts are insufficient:
>>248681JD Vance looking ass
>>248689you just outed yourself as a face blind autist
>>248689lmao
Remember all the people who predicted baruto would be yokozuna? kwab! Danny boi will enter the trash heap of sumo history.
>>248679Dan has technique and some very solid lower body tho Mitakeumi was always a shitter, only a retard would've seen potential on him.
>>248690It was just a joke mr spectrum.
>>248689I can see it!!
I like watching the crowd and seeing their reactions.
>>248696They got some good ones sometimes
¥3,850
>>248697Imagine getting Ura's dick and ass and balls right in your face.
Did you know Taiho was a hohol and his real name is Ivan?
>>248697That bald guy was KING.
Keep on seething. March will continue next year.
>>248671What kind of healthy are you expecting from Zak? Is there any chance we'll see anything like last november ever again?
>>248698How much are his handprints going for
>>248666>Dan's ability is far above anything thats been seen in sumo in ages if not ever before.I can hear the squelching noises of that dick sliding in and out of your ass holy shit. Dan is good but comparing him to fucking Hakuho is ridiculous. Even comparing him to the ball of violence that was Asashoryu is beyond stupid. Wait until he gets his 10th yusho within 3 years THEN, MAYBE, just MAYBE, you might be able to make this comment.
>Heh, I got lucky and won a yusho once too, kid. Enjoy your 3-12 next basho ;)- Kotoshoho
>>248709I will forever be amazed how fucking fish-lips was able to ever win a Basho.
>>248708>yet another anti-Danner chimpout complete with graphic depiction of their putrid gay sex fantasy life.disgusting
>>248710He actually looked great that basho, it was insane. Guy was putting out Ozeki level performances for 15 days.
Now that Dan has surpassed 11-4 it means he can also do worse than 11-4
How high will the count go before Hosh wins one in the Dan matchup?
>>248714Their career matchup before one retires will be Dan 11-4 Hosh.
>>248715fitting
>>248715it will be Horseryu 14 - Dan 88
>>248709>KotoshohoKWABOTY
>Top tierNovemberJanuary>Mid tierMaySeptember>Low tierMarch>Bad memory tierJuly
>>248719There was no basho in July.
>>248719Now that I think about it, Hosh actually had the final say in all this year's best basho.>JanuaryWon it>MayWiped his taint on Onosato's zensho rope>SeptemberIn the playoff>NovemberIn the playoffHe's been the most entertaining rikishi this year even if he only yusho'd in January.
>>248722too bad he'll retire by May
>>248723A giant photo of Futahaguro will be behind Hakkaku as he makes the announcement.>Tatsunami has failed us again
>>248714Probably not any more than a couple. Hoshoryu will eventually win once and will mentally compare it to him defeating peak hakuho.
Congratulations to Ozeki Kotozakura on ending the year with a >50% win rate at 51.1%!
>>248722>Now that I think about it, Hosh actually had the final say in all this year's best basho.This is why the omg he's gonna retire shitposters are so stupid. All the JSA wants is their Yokozuna and Ozeki to stay and have influence in the yusho race as often as possible.
Reminder that Hoshoryu so far has been a better yokozuna (staying healthy for far longer) than Kisenosato
>>248737Kisenosato has more yusho as yokozuna, and Hosh still hasn't had a back-to-back that Kise did.
>>248740W H I T E
>>248739How many basho did Yokozuna Kisenosato make exciting? One. ONE. And he only won because Hakuho was injured and both Harumafuji and Kakuryu did poorly.
>>248742By that logic Ura should be yokozuna
>>248742you weren't watching in his era so you have no idea what you're talking about
>>248745No one was watching in his "era" because he didn't have one.
>>248744Ura has never made a basho exciting. His own fights are great, but he never contributes anything to the overall yusho race. And that's before addressing how obtuse and stupid your post was.
>>248747The shit Ura took after lunch was more exciting than Horseshitryu.
You know you could just, not
>>248749>They expect one of us in the wreckage, brother.
https://www.youtube.com/live/GJnL1kavyDcOzeki ceremony starts "soon"
>>248749I miss him so much bros. I loved his dohyo iri face. He radiated the aura of a yokozuna so well.
>>248752Wonder how many SLAVA UKRAINI chat will get.
I didn't know sumo was that big of a deal for NHK to put a breaking news notice on the bottom of the scream about Dan's promotion like it's a tsunami warning or a PM election
>>248753First basho I watched was July last year through NHK highlights. It just looked like fat man slapping and pushing each other until the last match. The sheer size of Teru blew me away.
DAN ON THE TELLY
imagine if he just started projectile vomiting everywhere
Is that Ajigawa Okami-san? She's very pretty in a mature lady way :3c
*coughs*
TRANSLATE
wow I cant believe Aonishiki forgot what he was supposed to say and just started saying "slava ukraini" over and over again
>>248764>I'd like to take this moment to bring attention to the hideous actions of Vladimir in waging war on my homeland of UkraineWas that really appropriate???
will he drop the fishe?
uhhh doomsisters??? why are they happy with hosh???Also Oshima is the YDC chairman now? Fucking good. He isn't a gaylord with a stick up his ass.
Why is the yokozuna council even discussing Dan? He isn't in their sphere of concern yet
>>248768I think Oshima just lets asked about shit and answers. Also this means the head of the YDC is a gaijin.
>>248768All ozeki are their sphere of concern because at any time they could do well enough in one basho that they're up for consideration the next. Dan especially because he just yusho'd, so he's shown the potential.
Kaio looked particularly dignified and chairmanesque during his part in the ceremony.
I always looked forward Aminishiki's matches back when he was wrestling. he would regularly put on exciting displays of skill and uncommonly used techniques. I don't why he kept himself as such a lanklet and didn't want to bulk up to add overwhelming power to his skill set. Dan does not suffer from that issue, he is already probably the strongest guy in the division and still growing. 25 year old Dan is going to be a terror
>>248774Are his eyes open?
–_– >>248777
>>248749telunohuzi bros...
>>248777he's tired man
>>248772>I want these guys to throttle me and fuck my ass
>>248782Reminder that Teru and Onosato stood on a crate while the boys pretended to lift them.
>>248774>>248778>>248782>>248783And Mitakeumi, the list of those actually lifted for ozeki promotion pictures is probably way shorter.Fuck me I'm not lifting Onosato.
>>248784I dunno, my max deadlift without putting in real effort is 140kg so if me and a couple other guys tried we could lift Onosato for enough seconds to get a nice photo no problem.
The Osaka basho this year goes off a little on the early side so it is still possible for Dan to make yokozuna before he turns 22, Osaka senshuraku is 1 day before his birthday.
>>248786Yokozuna at 21 would be a feat only ever accomplished once before. I'll let Chris tell you who that was.
can we voteskip the holiday season and get right to the january sumo season please
>>248788December should be a special tournament where everyone has to dress as Santa
>>248787I sure am looking forward to Chris's summary of Dan's promotion ceremony
>>248788You have a month of beyaslop to consume before then.
>>248791speaking of when is Aloha Sumo gonna start dropping episodes?
Remember what a proper yokozuna looked likeit hasn't been that longhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8LPfLTRc04
>>248793Imagine if when Teru beat Kotoshoho that basho that you told him Kotoshoho would win a yusho.
Teru sat out entirely or failed to complete 13 of his 21 yokozuna bashos. His lassitude following on the absenteeism of the late parts of Kakuryu's, Hakuho yokozuna tenures and Kisenosato's really made the rank seem like little more than a bunch of pompous loafers. One of the worst eras of sumo for yokozuna performance. >I'll show up if I feel like it, or maybe I'll just go on vacation for six months. Thanks for the free money
>>248795Teru succeeded because whenever he DID show up you knew fatsos were going to get destroyed.
>>248795>I will google stats and post the worst and most negative takes about every rikishi possible
>>248793Reminder that Onosato got a Kinboshi against Teru.
>>248798And? Teru also said Onosato was the next Yokozuna.
Juryo promotions were also announced today
>>248800El Ogro de las Osaka
>>248798This is why I hate you dumb fucks that want to stir shit all the time. You never know what you are talking about.Onosato has 0 Kinboshi total.But you know who has 3 Kinboshi from Terunofuji. Tobizaru does.So shut the fuck up, anything happens in sumo.
>>248802>Onosato has 0 Kinboshi total.and he will never get one lol kawbayb
As much as the faggot above me is a faggot, if kinboshi could be achieved at any rank Onosato would STILL have zero because he's never beaten Hoshoryu in regulation bouts.
https://www.sumo.or.jp/EnKyokai/information?id=725
>>248805Remember when people said you couldn't start an Ozeki run outside of the Sanyaku? After multiple rikishi had done just that? LOL.
>>248806I remember all of the anti-Danners repeating that claptrap. Sure is funny how the anti-Danners all seem to have mysteriously disappeared from /sumo/ now that Dan yusho'd and made ozeki. Makes you wonder where they all went
>>248807They're still here telling you take his dick out of your ass.
Hoshoryu needs to become MORE violent. Really unleash his inner Asashoryu.
>>248806>>248807Except nobody was saying that he couldn't make ozeki outside of sanyaku. People were saying he was unlikely to get it if he did 11-4 again. He had to do 12-3 and Y or JY, which he did.
Dewanoryu & Kyokukaiyu are the other two juryo promotions And if theres only 3 total promotions then does that mean that Hakuyozan or Mita are escaping demotion
>>248810Whats it like being a Dan hater and watching Dan yusho and then get promoted to ozeki and shatter all sorts of long standing sumo records for rapid progression up the banzuke? Must be pretty frustrating for you
>>248812Kill yourself.
>>248811Uhhh anon? Kazuma at Ms15 went 7-0. That's basically a lock for Juryo considering his record to this point. Ms15 is the lowest you can be promoted from and he went 7-0. Expect Dewanoryu to be Ms1e next basho while Kazuma is launching fatsos in Juryo.
>>248807Me on the right having dropped my $4000 camera but trying to play it cool as the newest Ozeki walks by.
>>248800>Kazuma got promoted to juryoMy fat ugly bastard :)
>>248807>New future yokozuna, son of Kami, on his way to walk on chikaramizu, split the chanko and rice and turn tea into sake
Not sure if I read correctly, but there might be a name change on promotion for Kazuma >Kazuma>Kaz uma>umaYou can see why he might want a different name, nobody sane wants syllables that might be affiliated with Horseryu as part of their name
>>248816didn't expect that, but that's great. i hope he gets a decent result and not fuck up his knee again.
>>248818Kazura. He is at Kise after all. Maybe Kinbozura.
only 594 rikishi will be ranked for january basho.. if this gets under 500, i think NSK will have to change the policy of just 1 gaijin per beya..
>>248821Yarden is literally right there.>Oh wait Hakkaku is still chairmanGod I can't wait for that piece of shit to retire or die.
>>248822What makes you think anyone would want Yarden even if he was eligible? He doesn't have an extensive amasumo record or other competitive grappling experience. All he has going for him is that he's a fatfuck weeb.
>>248823Yarden has proven himself to be able to take on Ms rikishi and do okay. But beyond that it would just be a show of good faith from Kaio as chairman once Hakkaku fucking dies. What's the harm in letting Yarden compete? He's obviously dedicated.>muh rulesJust change the rules lmao.
>>248824Oyakata, who do we recruit: Ghengis Dvashbarat who regularly beats sekitori, or random jew who can do okay against sandamne teenagers?Face it, the real reason he never made it into sumo isn't because of the age or foreigner limit. It's because he's a can and nobody wanted to invest in some scrub.
>>248825Most stables don't have a gaijin iirc. Even then if Kaio were chairman he could just make an exception and let Tatsunami have him.>nooooo thats against the ruuuuulleeesss!!!Just change the rules lmao. Yarden has shown nothing but good faith in the face of being shit on by things outside his control.
>>248826>things outside his controlHe could've come to Japan earlier.>but muh military serviceClearly not dedicated to sumo if he's going to put it off for 3 years.>but muh COVIDNone of the stables he applied to accepted him. It wasn't like he'd have a guaranteed spot in if COVID didn't happen.>Most stables don't have a gaijin iircThat just emphasizes the point that it wasn't foreigner limit, but no stable wanted him. Seriously you must be a Zionist because nobody else cares as much as this literalwho as you do.
>cucked out of a yokozuna showdown>again
>>248829We had two last basho.
>>248798He lost on purpose.
Is there a reason which side promoted wrestler is on when they do the bow, because sometimes they're on the right side and sometimes left.
Koga, the mad dog of Mie.
>>248812Why do you always ignore the content of posts you reply to? Every time someone corrects shit you made up you default to these console war non sequiturs. I'm not going to hate Aonishiki, no matter how stupid you act.
>>248795You know who never took a basho off? Futahaguro.
I just want Koga to make juryo is that too much to ask? I think he is going to have a growth spurt soon and he will start his climb.
Okay so besides the 2 yokozuna and Aonishiki....Who is the next rikishi to get a yusho?Nobody in hell thought kotoshoho was gonna do what he did from fucking m15So who will make it?If you say Ichiyamamoto you will be laughed at
I rewatched the final day from NHK broadcast and caught a shimpan showing emotions>the two fatasses are in a clinch, let me check my notes real quick>wait shit why is the Ozeki Kotozakura on the floor
>>248843Zak will be the next Goeido where he randomly shows up to legitimately challenge for a title maybe once a year before going back into hibernation.
>>248844Shameful
>>248843Me
>>248844He is checking the the time, the Shimpan sitting in that spot acts as time keeper, indicating to the gyoji to proceed with the match or go for another round of salt.Takamisakari is our autist.Nicknamed Robocop for his pre-bout ritual when active.He earned Elder stock and they tried to have him open a stable but he didn't want to.Love that dude
>>248822>like any stable wants a fat old shit-tier Jew with zero experience
>>248824>Just change the rulesNo.
>>248843yoshinofuji, i hope he whoops dan's ass again and at least 1 yokozuna.
>>248849>like any stable wants a Jewfixed for you
>>248843Shishi will win a surprise yusho in 2027 by somehow managing to exclusively fight matches either fast enough to win by grugpush or slow enough that his brain can catch up and he can actually come up with a plan in his matches.>also he will be at maegashira 16 or something and have an easy run
>>248824Shlomonojumi will never be a sumo wrestler just like you will never be a real woman.
>>248735Ozeki pride!
>>248824He's proven himself to be a free practice mannequinReminder that he only aged out because he chose to contribute to genocide as a member of the IDF
If the NSK let in some old jew then they have no choice but to open the floodgates and allow all of us 30 something Americans that discovered sumo late to join tooHell id fly to japan next week if they did
>>248854>Shlomonojumi
>>248855I always thoughts japs made dumb faces in their paintings but here is Zak making that face
Today we remember Aonishiki's father, who introduced him to the world of sumo: Aoiyama.Rest in tits...>SAY>HIS>NAME
>>248843>who makes senseprobably Kotozakura or Kirishima if the stars align and theyre healthy>whats actually gonna happenKaki/Kazuma/Fujiryoga Takeru-type sansho sweep or randomly guy like Gonoyama or Asakoryu decide to go zensho for 9-10 days at which point there arent enough sanyaku to fight them and they get the yusho at 12-3 or even 11-4
>make lightning speed yokozuna promotions mostly for marketing reasons>complain when they don't perform up to your standardswhy are the kusojiji like this
>>248863YDC aren't the ones criticizing the current yokozuna.
>>248865oh my bad, disregard my retardation then
>>248848Best shimpan.>>248857>If the NSK let in some old jewAs soon as that happens the rules will be rewritten to not only allow, but enforce infinity gaijin, preferably nwordzuchidos. Also to make room for a women's division all time-wasting rituals and backwards traditions will be removed and the bouts will be done one after another without any salt, shiko and staring at each other for minutes. A ring will just be painted on the floor as to cut down on costs and labour, the dohyo matsuri will be replaced with a sacrifice to Moloch. Nakazori will not only apply to the hair, but also the foreskin.Takerufuji as well as Hiyonoyama and his friends will be used for kapparot and thus never show up again.>>248860The one and only time I will say Dan... iel.
>>248859Takayasu has the best battle face imo, shit looks like it was lifted directly off an Edo period woodblock print.
If we ignore his first basho since he got injured, Kazuma's win rate from jonokuchi to sekitori has been 96.4%. He dropped a single bout and climbed 4 divisions in 4 basho. That must be the all-time record, right? Jokoryu did the same thing but his 6-1 came in Makushita so didn't jump straight to sekitori and went 5-2 in that 5th basho.I swear to god, every basho or two we're getting these utter monsters slaughtering everyone.
>>248870We just need to get them all into the top division so we can be done with these clown/default bashos
>>248719>>248722January was a shit tournament
>>248871We have 2 yokozuna that are performing and (mostly) injury free and a new ozeki that at least seems to be up to the tasl, no clownery to be found here. Only problem is kotozakura
>>248873Default win is for fuckin clowns. EVERYONE knows Aonishiki never would've had a chance if Onosato had fought. Its a default win by definition and therefore a clown basho.
>>248875Adopt a trip.
Which one of these would you wear?
>>248877None. I prefer my own designs.
>>248877The Kirishima one is too aesthetic to not wear.
>>248877
>>248881>kozaktoura
>>248882You obviously read the top pair of tits first.
>>248884The tit lines are a great addition actually Both in clarity and in style And as a lighthearted jab
We could have 4 Yokozuna by May.
>>248843The rikishi formerly known as Kusano is who I would pick, he's shown he can beat anyone on any day and with a few more basho under his belt I could see him grabbing the cup for himself. Realistically you're going to have to go 2-1 against the top 3 guys from here on out and I'm not sure many can do that.
>>248719September was the best onosato shit on hoshitryu and showed us he’s the fucking man
>>248894He won't be in the next basho, he'll be on yokozuna vacation
>>248896the rock paper scissors prophecy depends on him being there
>>248881I raff
School children congratulating Dan on his promotion. Dan uchimuso'd them and then took their lunch money after this pic was taken
>>248902How can I learn to uchimuso?
>>248904You'd put yourself in the hospital if you tried, don't do it kid.
>>248903Thats what a real winner looks like, the one guy who goes through life winning everything and leaving everyone else envious and disappointed in their own mediocrity. You think there 1000 contest so theres enough prizes to go around for everyone, but then one top tier chad comes along and wins all 1000. Thats Dan, thats what he had done all his life and what he will continue to do, he will hog up all the kensho and trophies and accolades for himself and leaved everyone to cope muttering to placations to themselves such as: >well at least I got this sansho prize, fighting spirit, thats pretty good>I may not be top dog, but I won double digits >the people at the supporters club really seem to like me>I was on the DonDon highlights!! I'm famous and sheeiiittWhile Dan rides away in the parade car with yet another megabux top division yusho overflowing his bank account
