    His tsuppari is less comical

    Retirements after Natsu 2024

    And that 4 is enough ... no guarantees.

    Retirements after Natsu 2024

    I love the guy but he's been sounding completely delusional.

    New Juryo for Nagoya 2024

    So no surprise retirements or other curveballs.

    As others have noted, the closest parallel is probably the current yokozuna promotion standard—consecutive yusho or 26 wins.

    This makes me wonder what happens if you expand it to exceeding or equalling. This would be the first where 2 exceeded and 2 more equalled, at least?

    YDC Meeting Natsu 2024

    Hopefully he uses the time wisely.

    And this might reflect the higher caliber of guys currently in that category...

    Do they usually do the math? It's a reasonable assumption if one isn't paying close attention.

    No one's ever had consecutive yusho without being ranked ozeki at least for the second basho, period. Futabayama and Terunofuji are the only ones to win consecutive yusho at S/O.

    If only he had any heya-mates in Makuuchi...

    I have to say he's really grown on me, after starting firmly at the top of my list of least favorite rikishi.

    Yeah, whichever of these 11 misses out will be very unlucky. Personally, after today, I hope it's Akua. Should be either him or Oshoumi, based on past results. I'll be sad if they snub Satorufuji instead.

    According to this query, Chiyotenzan also had 3, and upping it to 4 didn't return any results.

    Graduating: Kayo, Nabatame, Fujiseiun. Just missing: Kiryuko (unless there's a retirement announcement in the next day or two).

    Math The Banzuke Natsu 2024

    If WTK is that high and Asanoyama is that low, I'll eat my hat, but otherwise it's very similar to my first draft.

    My first drafted landed Asanoyama all the way down at M13, but that's way too low, isn't it?

    nope, and please don't start one

    What are they going to do about M2? The first KK after the two komusubi-apparent and Meisei is 8-7 M7 Mitakeumi!

    Yup, that dawned on me after I clicked submit

    Would be awesome, but I don't think they'll do it, given their general treatment of full absences plus the fact that they're two wins apart by the numbers (3.5 ranks).

    Natsu 2024 discussion (results)

    4th, no? 11 wins at M5 is ahead of 9 wins at M2 I think.

    What a total $%^& ... and of course he had to go for the kakenage
  24. Reonito

    Natsu 2024 discussion (results)

    He basically was handed 3 losses he wouldn't have had if he wasn't in the race ... not saying he would have necessarily won all those 3 bouts against more typical opposition, but an M10 who gets 10 wins while facing 3 of the best-performing san'yaku seems prize-worthy.

    I'm in, pretty much the only game with a time commitment I can afford these days
