  • Interests
    Sumo, mostly. Figuring out how to make the food I ate when I lived in Japan at home. I make a mean chanko, rice balls, taco rice, barbecue beef (Okinawa dish, not American barbecue), decent soba, Okinawa soba, and yakisoba, and I'm trying to figure out the intricacies of various styles of ramen. Can you tell what I did when I lived in Okinawa?

    Haru 2022 Discussion Thread (SPOILERS!)

    Churaumi replied to Benevolance's topic in Honbasho Talk

    My Midwestern American friends that I subject to sumo every two months can get his name down after a couple tries. They lose track of all the Ks.

    Promotion/Demotion and Yusho Talk, Haru 2022

    Churaumi replied to Reonito's topic in Honbasho Talk

    I know I'm speeding a bit here, but Wakatakakage is at 21 wins over two basho with a yusho and sansho. Has anyone detected any excitement for an ozeki run next basho?

    "Plane of the dohyo" and its (non-)existence?

    Churaumi replied to Hidenotora's topic in Ozumo Discussions

    If there is any kind of rule about this, it has been completely left out of any explanation of the rules anywhere I've seen. If it does exist in whatever passes for an official rule book at the Kyokai, it is enforced in such a subjective manner that it can't really be called a rule.

    Five Finger Death Punch was the last concert I went to before COVID shut it all down. Hope you get to go sometime, they put on a great show.

    I forget...what happened to Kagamiou? Age? Injury? COVID?

    Gyoji and Yobidashi

    Churaumi replied to WANNAakkaido's topic in Ozumo Discussions

    I'm speculating here, but I would assume he either borrowed it or the stable has some gyoji robes. Anybody in jonokuchi anything isn't going to be able to buy those.

    Any kabaddi fans here?

    It is on ESPN+. I was lucky enough to be snowed in on Friday and able to catch the final live.

    May I ask where? We got hooked on the Vivo Pro Kabaddi League, which started in 2013 or so.

    Anybody watch kabaddi here? Stumbled across it on Hulu and it looks like a sport that's right up my alley. It scratches a lot of the same itches sumo does. It's fast-paced, physical, and the rules seem pretty simple. Just have a few questions if anyone here is a fan.

    Impressive thread necromancy. I can't see the ridges, but I could feel them on a newer one.

    Tsurugisho's apartment burgled

    Churaumi replied to Seiyashi's topic in Ozumo Discussions

    I guess the thieves were watching that day and realized he didn't have anything in his mawashi. It must all be at his apartment.

    Chris Gould thinks a lot of things.

    Just like Asanoyama. If you count the oyakata pulling him out, he's really missing like 6 and a third basho.
