Peterao 3 Posted March 10, 2008 Hokutoriki is looking good so far. Is this the re-awakening of The Incredible Hulkatoriki that seems to spring loose every couple of years? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Washuyama 610 Posted March 10, 2008 Funny... When I saw the thread title, I was sure it was started by Nishinoshima. (Laughing...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peterao 3 Posted March 12, 2008 Unfortunately not. The Hokutoriki that stopped Asashoryu's 35 match unbeaten streak and was only prevented from lifting the emperors cup by a Hakuho henka on senshuraku was a forward moving version. Care to reconsider? Hokutoriki has more wins than Hakuho now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bealzbob 0 Posted March 12, 2008 Have to say I've been impressed with what I've seen of him so far. He looks a completely different rikishi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
messi19 0 Posted March 12, 2008 This version of Hokutoriki is very good for sumo. There's not many things as beautiful as watching Hokutoriki display forward-moving oshi-sumo with authority. ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bealzbob 0 Posted March 12, 2008 I need no convincing of Hokutoriki's greatness. I just wish others would quit thinking I'm joking. I'm confused. Only 4 posts above the one I quoted you are writing him off ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peterao 3 Posted March 14, 2008 Hokumania is still running wild, brother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aderechelsea 107 Posted March 14, 2008 normal stuff .... the "Forces of Sumo" are having their yearly LSD festival this time around. The whole of Hakkaku is doing so-so (or worse if you are Kaiho) and Riki is stellar .... :-D the bubble will burst tomorrow with a nifty hikiotoshi from Wakanoho.

Bealzbob 0 Posted March 14, 2008 Hokumania is still running wild, brother. And a spotters badge for you. You identified it early on. I'm liking this version of Nishi's robot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
higginbotham 0 Posted March 14, 2008 the bubble will burst tomorrow with a nifty hikiotoshi from Wakanoho. Hokutoriki should be waiting for a faulty tachiai tomorrow. :-O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aderechelsea 107 Posted March 15, 2008 Hokutoriki should be waiting for a faulty tachiai tomorrow. (Laughing...) he is never doing any actual tachi-ai himself so the chances of a successful henka are minimum (Hakuho notwithstanding). (Laughing...) hikiotoshi loss anyway ...

Asashosakari 17,637 Posted March 15, 2008 Hokumania was a lie. A sham. A flim-flam. He's just Hokutoriki. C'mon...a little training, eating right, saying his prayers and taking his vitamins, and Hokumania will be running wild again. (Laughing...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peterao 3 Posted September 17, 2008 I'm warning y'all, you ignore this topic at your own peril. (Sign of approval...) Hulkatoriki hasn't forgotten what Hakuho did to him 52 months ago... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sokkenaiyama 64 Posted September 17, 2008 As much as I can't stand Kakuryu, he's gonna beat your Hoaxster tomorrow. My guess... uwatedashinage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
昭和五十八太郎 0 Posted September 17, 2008 Ah, Hokutoriki, the human yoyo. Bottom of Makunouchi and he looks like he is priming himself for yokozune. Maegashira 2 or higher, and he looks like he started the tournament with his arms back at the shitakubeya. Bless his little heart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue_Wolf 24 Posted September 18, 2008 As much as I can't stand Kakuryu, he's gonna beat your Hoaxster tomorrow. My guess... uwatedashinage. Kakuryu just won. You must be very successful in fantasy games, i quess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naganoyama 5,696 Posted September 18, 2008 As much as I can't stand Kakuryu, he's gonna beat your Hoaxster tomorrow. My guess... uwatedashinage. How could you not like Kakuryu? How could anyone not like Kakuryu? Or rather how would anyone have the nerve to admit it on the forum and risk the wrath of Fay? (Sign of approval...)
