Sad. Maybe do a Part Deux channel and lay off the interview translations for good.

Kimigayo is a beautiful anthem, and can be very rousing in a choral-orchestral form. But I can't help but feel dissapointed by GACKT's spiritless rendition of it. Compare that to the roaring performance by Ariunbaatar Ganbaatar that followed. Maybe I'm overthinking.. but was this done by design on someone's part? I wonder....

The Mongol anthem by the opera star sounded so damn heroic I got goosebumps.

This deserved a thread of its own.

This whole affair and the reporting of it is very discombobulating!

My two sen: - Start another channel and call it Shin Kintamayama~! - Lay off the interviews stuff for now.

Latest pic from the Minato Beya insta.

If you didn't see a man pyschologically at his nadir when Takayasu went down, that's fine too.....I guess. Those who've been in sport and seen similiar stuff know what they saw.

Jiisan's obviously getting on a bit.

That's what I saw too. One of the most emotionally hard hitting things I've ever seen.

Abi's yusho is thoroughly deserved.

Anybody with a heart should feel nothing but pity for poor Takayasu. That mental/emotional breakdown was just sad, sad to watch. His wife and parents must have been hysterical watching it live. Congratulations to Abi though, he did what he had to do.

Now how many times has that been said

He'd had enough of being mistaken for Tsurugisho.

This is too anxiety inducing. No excuses for ragdolling the Kamisan. Just for that INTAI and police investigation! But, he's still there competing in basho. What's true and what isn't Kyokai??
