Can anybody help me with the first kensho Meisei got in 2018 (Nagoya)? Which bout was it? Is the list for this Basho still available?

2007 they went to Hawaii/Honolulu

2026 the plan is to go to France as well.

back at least to Makushita ... close call!?

Kiryoku is back to Juryo safe even if he looses his last and Kazekeno wins, right?

Place not decided yet ...

Miyagino-beya will be back probably within the first half of the next year!!

Does anybody has a list with the Heya lodgings in Fukuoka?

Respect!!!

well, in January I saw many many big groups but most were Japanese. It's quite interesting with the (weak) Yen. The trips to Japan are still very very expensive as the whole travelling has become far more expensive compared to before Covid. Flight costs to Japan have increased a lot and now with the hotels is becomes the same. You may save money on the one hand but at the same time you loose more. Also the Railpass has become significantly more expensive. My total calculation for a Japan/Sumo trip has not become cheaper.

What's the main reason for this extremely high demand? It started with the Hatsu Basho but then it still was no problem to buy tickets for most of the days via official resale on sumio.pia within hours. Mainly new cooperations between the Kyokai and various agencies?

you can do this without mastering Japanese at a certain level? Anyway I'm very glad I just have to write a message ... otherwise no live Sumo anymore after so many years.

The online sale (pia) was done after few than one hour! No chance to get a single ticket. These days there are no day tickets anymore as well. For common sumo fans who want to go several days without paying to "reseller" hard times! It's all about contacts at the moment ...

Quite interesting if his younger brother "Shunrai" is going to make it to Sekitori as well. He's just 19, maybe not with the same talent than Kiryuko but promising as well.

Said he gets 6 Kesho Mawashi!! A kind, likeable person!

12000 ...

Thanks, what will be the capacity for the Sumo?

the new venue will be where in Nagoya?

Arauma had his Danpatsu-shiki some days ago!

any images of Shin-Juryo Kazekeno yet?

last bout for Hokaho, going to retire!

The best solution within the already decided penalty!

well, this is the best solution as far as I can see it. Kyokutenho is like a brother to Hakuho and at the same time like an uncle for many Miyagino Rikishi. He will take care of them with friendly contact to Hakuho. Both Heya have been linked to each other for many years by dekeiko or private activities like parties. Also the Heya are just located by a short walk. Once the media are focusing on new or better "business" all this is calming down thus it's optimal to move to an own place again.

I've hundreds of Rikishi pictures for uploading ... who can upload them?!

Have you done the interview/article?
