    Bout-Length Kyushu 2023

    The final bout between Kirishima and Takakeisho seems like karma to me. In September, Takakeisho denied Atamifuji a real challenge in the playoff for the championship, executing a hatakikomi slap down in just over a second after the tachiai. Few fans (at least, not me) felt good about how things transpired. One tournament later, Kirishima denied Takakeisho a double-digit win record with a tsukiotoshi thrust down in just over one second. Takakeisho had a taste of his own medicine!

    Miyagino/Hakuho extra activities

    Unfortunately these videos often get switched to private after a while, I download them on the day and only watch that video, I avoid watching on YT directly whenever possible - and only notice that it can't be accessed any-more when I post if the video is gone. Not being embeddable happens all the time and is no clear sign. Looks like I have to post these things quicker.
