There was a news leak. This basho, the macaron will have the gay pride rainbow.

Or breaking open a keg of sake.

It is seldom a one-shot occurrence. The question of whether to add a bonus sanyaku rank is usually a matter of the banzuke committee having its mawashi in a bind rather than a specific rikishi's qualification.

90% of the number of sanyaku questions only has significance in GTB. In real life, it doesn't really matter much. The joi-jin has 16 slots. Once you get below Ozeki, the ranks become a vertical line. It doesn't really matter what you call the members of the line.
