aderechelsea 125 Posted March 17, 2007 the following guy is the one responsible for Tochiazuma's messy oicho ... (Shaking head...) Are you sure? This is Tokotsuka ranked at 3-toh? One would assume a tokoyama has to be of at least the second highest rank to be eligible to tie an ozeki's hair? to tell you the truth i am not sure, but he was the only listed Tamanoi Tokoyama, so i guessed he is the one. Maybe Azuma does his hair somewhere else .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted March 21, 2007 to tell you the truth i am not sure, but he was the only listed Tamanoi Tokoyama, so i guessed he is the one. Maybe Azuma does his hair somewhere else .... I've understood that if there's no tokoyama ranked high enough in a rikishi's own heya, he visits another heya within his own ichimon which has a tokoyama of high enough rank. If I'm wrong about this, someone please correct me. (Clapping wildly...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
