>kadoban loser opLol
>>258647>Takayasu is now the old guard
Only four Ozeki have never gone kadoban. Hosh and Sato are two of them. Dan is not on the list.
Daily reminder that Nabatame will make it to makuuchi this year.
Kusano thread.
>>258658I've never gone kadoban
>>258662Y'ain't gone Ozeki neither.
>>258663Can you prove that
>>258658>Only four Ozeki have never gone kadoban.No.
Ozeki who have never gone kadoban since July 1969:>Wajima>Kitanoumi>Wakamisugi (Wakanohana)>Chiyonofuji>Takanosato>Onokuni>Kitao (Futahaguro)>Hokutoumi>Asahifuji>Musashimaru>Asashoryu>Kakuryu>Hoshoryu>Onosato
>>258670>Ozeki who have never gone kadoban since July 1969>Posts a list that has no ozeki in it
>>258671Yokozuna are Ozeki, Anon.
>>258670Is that list for just when they were ozeki?
>>258674Yes, they were not in danger of going kadoban after they became Yokozuna. That list is all the rikishi that did not post a losing record while ranked at Ozeki between July 1969 and now.
>>258670Musashimaru was nuts. 5 years at Ozeki with no kadoban in the era of Akebono and the Hana brothers.
>>258678Cool, thanks.

>>258641the "that fucking cat" meme, but its Dan. I'm not making the shoop, but someone else should.

are there any good translated sumo manga? i remember checking out that shonen jump slop from around ten years ago and it pretty much sucked
>Wakatakakage & Wakamotoharu>Kotoshoho & Kotoeiho>Asakoryu & AsasuiryuWe're so close to having three pairs of brothers in makuuchi.
>>258711For a while there we could potentially have had Hidenoumi, Wakatakamoto, Mudoho, and Naya.Although Hidenoumi is the only ex-makuuchi in that list and he just retired so it was never gonna happen anyways.
>>258711Soon we'll have Wakamiyabi, Soma, and Shunta. Trust the plan
>Shiden lost 30 kg when he got suspended for gamblingJesus
>>258722The guilt must've been eating away at him.
Juryo
>>258728Is that supposed to be news? His 5th day on day 9 confirmed it.
>>258730I just think he's neat.
>>258728The oyakatas on the yt channel said he has a perfect rikishi figure. I can see that. Beautiful round boy.
>>258736Kayo is the Juryo sphere.
>>258714The plan of having two brothers and a random guy?
>>258714Kotakiyama ain't hitting salaried rank. Soma might touch juryo, Shunta's probably got the most potential of the 3 brothers. On a side note Takahara is good but I think he's advancing too fast for his growth, not that it's his fault or anything
>>258711We already had three pairs of brothers in Makuuchi as recently as last July.

>>258788Azumaryu looking like a 50 year old monk with that cut.
>>258790Vertical rope run has begun.
Glad this thread is here, watched my first haru basho and it was blast! Takayasu is the man, hope he can push forward into the next tourney
So was Onosato really having sex with human women while he took vacation or was that just a meme.
>>258794It's a meme, Onosato was having sex with yokai women in order to harvest their spiritual energies for his comeback.
>>258786wtf i love horse now

There can be only one.
>>258797>>258799>>258810
The JSA might go easy on Takayasu and keep him in the same rank because it's hard to find enough people to promote to sanyaku.
What's the best bouts that I can look into (for a new fan)? Been watching Sumospirit on YouTube for lore
>>258817Ura vs Tobizaruhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SowwfIBeW4U
>>258816Everyone below Ozeki is getting an automatic half rank demotion because of Kirishitma so it's not out of the question.
>>258819*including Ozeki, except Kotozakura
>>258822nta but newly promoted ozeki and yokozuna are always listed at the bottom of those respective ranks. Kirishima will be O1e in July though.
24 wins in the next 2 basho and Atamin makes Ozeki.
24 wins in the next 2 basho and Dan makes Yokozuna
>>258824I think if he someone does 12+ in May, they might give it to him right there. M4 is the absolute bottom of what they consider joi, but importantly he beat both yokozuna and faced one of the ozeki, and the only reason why he didn't face the other is because he was outperforming him in title contention. They'll think highly of that, even at M4.
>>258827The lowest I'm aware of is M3w but that was 37 wins, though that Sanyaku was one larger than it was when Atamin was so that M3w was more like M4e today. Idk man I can't see it. The discussion begins at 13Y.
It wasn't just him being quirky. If you watched him in his matches, he literally penguin walked multiple rikishi out of the ring just like this. Atamin is fucking powerful.
Just heard the news about Dan. Sucks that he's injured but it at least explains why he was struggling so much this last Basho.
>>258834so glad you danfags have an excuse now..
>>258840He looked obviously off from day 1, stop being so fucking weird bro just enjoy sumo.
>Hoshoryu broke Dan's leg with his throwkino
>>258829Look at him go! Ozeki Atamin by the end of 2026. I believe!
>>258817>Been watching Sumospirit on YouTube for loreVomit.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0aUY-NzcDWCGDvOO9tPuec0im7n4Dirw
>258834>Hosh delivered the kadoban for ultimate justice>right in time for an injury serious enough to prevent a winning record in MayVertical rope run has begun LMAO
>>258848Man, what a bummer. He’s young so hope is not lost, but still…hopefully it’s not a major fracture and/or like something that permanently affects him.
>>258844Would be insane if he carried on the way he's been fighting the last two basho.
>me last year>"I like watching Aonishiki fight, but his low style seems to me like he's asking for an injury">danfag gets mad>he gets injuriedYou're lucky it's his foot and not his back
>>258817Watch Chris Sumo's video on the final Hakuho v Terunofuji fight. I still can't believe Hakuho wrote that entire script about his thoughts in that moment for Chris.
>>258854Don't confuse the boy,
>>258853>t. poster of shit that never happened it that exchange had genuinely occurred then you'd be linking to the old posts you're referencing.
>>258856Retard.
With Zak being back and Kirishima getting promoted, it will be interesting to finally have 2 competent ozeki this year.
>>258860>8-7It's over>10-5We're so back>8-7It's over>10-5We're so back
>>258860>2 competent ozeki this yearAtamifuji and who?
>>258863Zak understands what it takes to be a salaryman.
>>258818I like both Ura and Tobi (albeit, both on the losing end, especially Tobi) I noticed that fast pace sumo doesn't work so well further into the tourney, most of their opponents had em locked
>>258866Nah, they're just broken men. Ura has no knees and would rather do a flip than land on them and that's not a joke, and Tobi is getting on in the years now. He might not have any one stand out injury but he's hurting. Also his brother just went intai so I dunno man I don't think he has long left.
>>258867Tobizaru can rest with pride knowing that he personally ended the career of a Yokozuna.
>>258845Thanks for this so much, diving deep here
>>258865Fat stacks! How much money do you think that is?
>>258870
>>258870Each envelope is about $250 iirc.
>>258870>>258872The actual amount in each envelope physically right now is only 10k yen ($63 right now) due to a scandal involving prize money embezzlement. But each envelope represents 60k yen ($378 each) with the remaining 50k being split between the wrestler's retirement account and bank account after tax deductions.
>>258873And you get the honour of knowing you helped promote the Hot Staff recruitment agency because they're half the fucking banners. I wish some rich fuck would dump like $20k into banners for his favourite beyaslop channel.
>>258871>Wow, with this I can afford a PS5 and one game!
>>258874If I had money I'd buy every banner and have them put Futagoyama sloppa screencaps on them, just to get rid of soulless garbage like that. Seeing a long line of big pharma pfizer shit back when was grim.>>258875>implying PS5 has games
>>258876>A banner round of all the lower ranked rikishi from a beya making silly facesKino...
>>258875Atamin is clearly a Nintendo player.
>>258880Tatsunami deshi played Smash in slop a while back. Iirc Okaryu murdered everyone.
>>258881Futagoyama had an early video with them playing Smash, Nabatame wrecked Denuma but it was more a case of Denuma sucking then Nabatame being good
Dan vs Dan
>>258853>me last year>"heh this sumo wrestler seems like he would get injured eventually, very unlike most sumo wrestlers">he gets an injury unrelated to my observations"heh I'm am very smart"
>dan injures onosato>danfags cheer>hoshoryu injures dan>NOOOO THAT'S NOT HECKIN' FAIRRRRR
>>258904It's not nice to bully special needs kids anon. We should talk about more interesting things now. For me, it's manlet power with Fujinokawa and Asakoryu both continuing their rise.
>>258905I've always said it, manlets are absolute fun to watch. I hope Asa bros reach at least makuuchi joi. Fujinokawa should be able to get to sanyaku eventually.
goodbye chio you round fuck
it's chiyover...
I was bouncing around wiki and just reading about various rikishi and came across Kaio. Is he the most notorious Ozeki who never make it all the way to Yokozuna due to all the wins and time at that rank? Or was there another that people attach that to?
No one will ever be as gloriously round.I will never forget him tip toeing around the dohyo like a ballerina. Seeing him move so gracefully was always a sight to behold.
>>258921Yeah. Kaiō is probably the best ōzeki to never make it. Unfortunately, his career coincided with those of Takanohana, Musashimaru, and Asashōryū, as well as fellow great ōzeki Chiyotaikai. With those guys sucking up all the oxygen, he could never quite get over the hump. Then injuries started to pile up and he became one of those guys that spends a few years compiling one 8-7 after another. He didn’t even get a jun-yūshō in the last six or seven years of his career.In 2004, though, he put together a 13-2Y 12-3JY that opened a lot of conversation about promoting him, especially since that was his fifth cup, but ultimately the YDC decided that the 12-3 wasn’t quite a yūshō equivalent and that was that.
>>258921Third highest in number of yusho or jun-yusho at ozeki, and the two above him are Musashimaru and Kisenosato, so yeah.
>>258922God I wish that were me (on the right)
>>258841It's similar toe injury nephew had, but danfags laughed at him going kyujo. Now that aonishiki has it, that's an alright excuse, lol.
>>258921Kaio won 5 yusho but Takakeisho won 4 in less time, so there's always gonna be debate. Kaio is next in line for Chairman and he's based.
>>258922>>258927God me too
>>258922>>258927>>258930
>>258931Maybe it's the bad lighting but even then how does he avoid those nasty ass stretch marks
>>258933Anything posted by a woman on social media is edited/filtered.Also just genetics, look at kinbozan for the other side of the stretch mark scale.
Just posting some maru'sGonna miss this jolly fucker
Goodnight Sweet Prince
This is what Dan haters look like rn
>>258940That looks like some dank shit, mang.
>>258928You've made up an entire crowd of people that don't exist in your mind and spend hours of your day getting mad about the things that these invisible people did to insult you so that you feel as if you have the right to shitfling.It's exhausting really.
>>258949Stop talking to yourself, faggot.
>>258944lmao
Who even won the last basho? Oh right, Kirishitma. It was so forgettable honestly.
>>258916>>258918>>258922>>258930>>258931>>258934>>258945;_;Who will claim his title now? What's next in his career?
>>258963Really more of a 1 ball.
Dan dominating Chiyomaru, defeating him easily and convincingly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pm5wnmFMQxo
Is Onosato finished?Is Hoshoryu finished?
No.
>>258793>He doesn't know...Anon, I...
>>258923>compiling one 8-7 after anotherThats funny i thought you were joking but he literally did that over and over.
>>258966>Is Hoshoryu finished?implying he ever got started. he is a fake yokozuna, he was promoted just to make sure someone was available to do the meme ceremony in london
yusho equivalent btw
>>258977>Zak took the knee in November to get Dan to promote so he could pass on the kadoban curseI see now...
>>258922>>258931It looks like she got him pregnant.
>>258973
>>258972>An entire calendar year of 8-7sJfc not even Zak did that.

Your thoughts on Hidenoumi's future career in real estate?
>>258994
>>258983A feat only Kotomitsuki and Toda (Haguroiwa) have matched.
https://www.sponichi.co.jp.translate.goog/sports/news/2026/04/03/articles/20260403s00005000053000c.htmlDan sitting out the tour, he will be in top form come May, another yusho is in the bag
>>258997Hope he can recover from the injury well and finish strong next basho
>>258997Here's hoping he can get at least 10 in July to regain ozeki.
>>258994I wonder if it's a sign that Tobi might be on the way out too.
>>258991He really does have the perfect sumo face.
>>259002Imagine the lols if Tobi also joins Hidenoumi in the real estate sales business a few years after Hidenoumi gets started in it and then Tobi quickly becomes the superior real estate salesman
>>259008Tobi without the sumo weight and with a beard is pretty damn handsome as per older photos of him. He could close a deal on a house any day of the week. Not gay but I'd suck his dick.
>>259009>buy this house or I'll kick you in the knee
Nobody mentioned it yet, but there was a new Chris video today.
>>259009You can't just post this without an image.
>>258641Dan has reached the whaito piggu limit, his frail whitoid body is starting to fail and he'll be put on his place, just like all other caucasoids before him
I'm new to sumo what's a kadoban? Is that a special prize?
>>259015It's the Japanese name for a faggot. You'd probably hear it a lot if you went there.
>>258994>36 years old>switches careers entirelySo what you're saying is it's not over for me.
>>259015Ozekis get demoted if they fail to get winning records (at least 8 wins per tournament) twice in a row. Kadoban is the state in which they've already gotten a losing record, and would face demotion if they repeat it.
*if they fail twice in a row to get a winning record.
>>259019Hidenoumi has already proved himself capable of building a highly successful career in about a decade or so, you've only proved yourself capable of building a history of failure in a similar period of time.
>>259029Why ya gotta be so mean.
Consider this.After a basho, a rikishi can notify the JSA that he chooses to give up one of his kinboshi in return for a guarantee to not be demoted in the resulting banzuke.
>>259035You would need to give up 55 kinboshi to block a demotion from juryo to makushita, 15 to block a demotion from maegashira to juryo, 20 to block a demotion from komusubi/sekiwake to maegashira, and 35 to block a demotion from ozeki to sekiwake. By comparison the most kinboshi in history is Akinoshima with only 16. Kinboshi are actually irrelevant.
>>259035No not a kinboshi per rank demoted, just a kinboshi to prevent dropping at all in the upcoming banzuke.
>>259049for >>259039
>>259055He looks bitchin in purple.
