You can find Natto's digest in his discord server (I don't know if I should paste it here). He is looking at alternatives to host the videos and he has even open a really convenient Telegram.

So much talk about Takakeisho's promotion and we forget the main point: he has to win (almost) all of his matches.

Awaiting the new elimination update after the new banzuke is published...

Non-K-November basho 2020 Discussion (spoiler space)
Kotomiyama replied to Akinomaki's topic in Honbasho Talk
I am no Takakeisho fan, his sumo seems to me one-dimensional, lackluster and without a pan B. After he suffered such a defeat against an overwhelming Terunofuji I thought he was done, but he was not. His mental strength is on par to his physique. Great finish to a great basho. -

Great kekaeshi from Tobizaru today. I wonder why it is not seen more often. It seems like a really effective kimarite against slow and big oponents and yet only a handful are attempted each tournament. -

So much energy in the Takayasu - Terunofuji match. I hope to see both regaining the Ozeki rank in 2021. -
Not among my favourites, but I reckon I always wanted him to win after he lost his ozeki rank. He kept on fighting and he even managed to get three kinboshi. Respect.

September (Aki) Basho- offical thread (yay..)
Kotomiyama replied to Kintamayama's topic in Honbasho Talk
Great finish to a really nice tournament. With the old guard retiring, we have now yet another yusho winner. I wonder if November would set a record of most Makuuchi yusho winners in the banzuke: Hakuho, Kakuryu, Takakeisho, Asanoyama, Shodai, Mitakeumi, Terunofuji, Tochinoshin, Tamawashi and Tokushoryu if I am not mistaken. Edit: I was indeed mistaken, I forgot Kotoshogiku -

Tomorrow's Shodai vs Asanoyama is going to be really nice... while I get Tobizaru's bandwagon on the route. -

Kotomiyama replied to Kintamayama's topic in Honbasho Talk
Before the basho was sad because without Abi there will be "something" missing. I don't know what that "something" is, but Tobizaru has it. Maybe is his style, his continous jumping around... I don't know, but I like it. Who's driving Tobizaru's bandwagon? I want to jump in! -
I wonder if Asashoryu is an example of what is said inside a heya. Alternatively he could be just another (idiot) bully longing for his glory days.
-
NSK has made a good decision. As other have pointed, enduring a 3 Basho suspension with half the pay and no bonus is a test of Abi's commitment to Sumo. If he decides to continue and manages to behave, I would root for him more than ever.
-
Sad news, for sure. Abi was different and he hadn't reached his full potential. I hope this situation can be reversed somehow.
-
Tochinoshin's loss was hard to see. He was able to carry Terutsuyoshi like in the old days but he couldn't finish. He has lost his power and I don't see hope in his eyes. I think he will be back in Georgia by Christmas...

I wish they prove me wrong. I really like both
