Doitsuyama 1,178 Posted May 19, 2010 Czech Takanoyama improved to 5-1 with a win over lead makushita Hochiyama, and a few results went in his favour regarding his position on the next banzuke. Lead makushita Masuraumi lost in juryo and must win his last bout to get the kachi-koshi while Ms2w Takarafuji already is make-koshi, losing to Jumonji. Even Sadanoumi can finish behind Takanoyama as he fell out of the yusho race with a sukuinage loss to Kyokushuho, so Sadanoumi and Takanoyama will probably meet for the final bout. On the minus side, Brazilian Kaisei is kachi-koshi with a win against Kirinowaka, probably finishing not worse than #3 in the promotion race. Ms3e Tsurugidake also achieved a somewhat surprising kachi-koshi, beating Yoshiazuma. Kyokushuho will meet Maeta for the makushita yusho decider as the 200 kg rikishi won against Bungonishiki to secure six wins for the second time in three basho. Tochitenko beat another 200 kg rikishi with 20 years old Mankajo and with 4-2 he is enjoying his third successive kachi-koshi and is guaranteed a 120th makushita basho in Nagoya. Oh, and Bulgarian Aoiyama stopped his losses with a win against Araumi from the lower half of makushita. The sandanme yusho race had no surprises today with Takunishiki, Kei and Ikinoshima advancing to 6-0. Takunishiki against Kei probably will be the yusho decider here as Ikinoshima should be set up against the top jonidan rikishi at 6-0 who happens to be career-undefeated Sasakiyama. Barring some (not impossible) surprises from the torikumi makers Saishin and Enshunada, the other two rikishi at 6-0 in jonidan will meet to determine the yusho winner or playoff opponent for Sasakiyama (or even Suekawa who is up tomorrow). The torikumi makers avoided a bout between Hashimoto and Ryuonami, the two jonokuchi leaders, and Hashimoto went ahead for now, beating Tamahikari. Mongolian Ryuonami will try tomorrow to pull even against 19 years old 5-0 jonidan Suekawa, who bounced back nicely from a four basho make-koshi streak.

Pippooshu 1 Posted May 19, 2010 (edited) I hope for Takanoyama's promotion in the Juryo's division but it's difficult. Hochiyama is over. Kaisei is over. Tsurugikade is over. Sadanoumi is over and maybe Masuraumi and Yoshiazuma also. Too many for an ms 6! Edited May 19, 2010 by Pippooshu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azumashida 1 Posted May 19, 2010 Could Takayasu be the real deal? 8th consecutive kk and a new highest rank on the next banzuke! Would be interesting to see some of his bouts, if they are available somewhere... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kuroyama 715 Posted May 19, 2010 I hope for Takanoyama's promotion in the Juryo's division but it's difficult. Hochiyama is over. Kaisei is over. Tsurugikade is over. Sadanoumi is over and maybe Masuraumi and Yoshiazuma also. Too many for an ms 6! If he has to wait one more basho, that's not very much time considering how long he's been at this. And it's not asking too much for 2 consecutive makushita KKs, if you want him to have any staying power in juryo at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But two times Takanoyama has lost a similar opportunity during past high makushita ranking bashoes. I'm afraid about his next basho... (Shaking head...)

Asashosakari 19,150 Posted May 19, 2010 Kaisei will not be promoted with only 4 wins, he needs one more - that's what I heard today. I think that's just an indication that he's likely to fall to below 3rd in the order if he loses his final bout. Takes only two wins from the trio of Masuraumi/Tsurugidake/Sadanoumi for that to happen. And of course there's still the possibility that Kanbayashi goes on a tear and finishes 7-8. I kinda wonder who would get promoted between, say, Ms3e Tsurugidake 5-2 and Ms5e Sadanoumi 6-1. Precedence would favour Sadanoumi, I think, but a possible veteran bonus (not to mention a Musashigawa-rijicho bonus) might favour Tsurugidake. The only things that are reasonably clear for now are that Hochiyama is going to juryo, and Yoshiazuma isn't. Could Takayasu be the real deal? 8th consecutive kk and a new highest rank on the next banzuke! He's sure distanced the other Heisei era rikishi for now... Speaking of which, new tracking thread coming up after the basho. (Okay, it's not going to be that special...) Indeed, there are some of his bouts on youtube (looks like a fan constantly uploads them). Neat, thanks for the heads-up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pippooshu 1 Posted May 19, 2010 (edited) Sorry for my stupid question but in the sumotori's list I've discovered this strange case: two different Byakko for only one shikona.

I think it changes the kanji? (Shaking head...) Byakko East Sandanme 13 (Sandanme 11) Byakko East Jonidan 54 (Sandanme 72) Well, the sandanme one is Byakko (short o), the lower ranked guy is Byakkooo (looong o), so it's not only different kanji but really a different name... This gets hidden in the chosen form of romanization which sometimes leads to confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This gets hidden in the chosen form of romanization which sometimes leads to confusion. BTW, as they did the last few times (Oka/Ouka and Mori/Mouri), the Kyokai web guys have again redubbed the long-o guy as Byakkou in his profile. In a related issue, I guess the shindeshi Nakashima will show up with a new shikona next time out. Okay, or the one who's already on the banzuke will. Or one of them will suddenly be listed as Nakajima, whatever. Either way there's a kana collision for now. (Not that they usually care about collisions with shindeshi names.)
