Yubinhaad 11,954 Posted January 27, 2013 Here are the kimarite statistics for all divisions in this basho. There were two hansoku in the Makuuchi division this basho (both mage-nage), the first time for two of those since 2009 Kyushu. For Tamawashi this is a second Makuuchi win earned by his hair - the first came in 2011 Aki courtesy of Fujiazuma (who got the other win this basho). There was also a sweet nimaigeri, of course from Tokitenku who has now won 13 bouts with it in his career. In Juryo, Tokushinho continued his one-man revival of the kime grip - he was responsible for all six kimedashi in Juryo last year, used it again this basho and added a kimetaoshi for good measure. From the Sandanme division we had a kubihineri (which on seeing live, I was convinced was a kawazugake - wrong), and also a sabaori which was not seen at all in 2012. Sandanme also provided all four sokubiotoshi, the most by a single division in a single basho since that technique was introduced in 2001. And Tsugaruumi, on the receiving end of the sabaori, ended his basho with a kachi-koshi clinching uchimuso win.

The_Arrow87 7 Posted January 28, 2013 I'm also one of those who loves the kimarite statistics. Always interesting to see which rare kimarite were used and how often. And was it the first Kotehineri ever in Ozumo? At least the sumo glossary says so. I was always curious what this technique looks like, and thanks to Kitataiki now I know. :-D And kinda "sad" to see that almost no one uses shitatehineri nowadays. I always loved Tochitsubasa for using it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akaikeinfo 7 Posted January 28, 2013 I noticed that the user of chongake is Kyokutaisei (i.e. the young rikishi from the "A Normal Life" documentary) and the database shows that it's actually his favorite technique and has used it 12 times in his career already. He's already used a pretty large variety of kimarite, including some other techniques that hardly anyone else is using. I guess it's not a surprise, as he's a light rikishi, has a judo background, and his coach at the start of his career was a smaller guy as well that won several special prizes for technique. It'll be interesting to see how much farther Kyokutaisei will be able to progress up the banzuke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aderechelsea 125 Posted January 28, 2013 He beat Iwasaki this basho by chongake ..... And he is no pushover going for his top rank next basho after a 5-2 record at Ms39. He looks like he put on some weight recently and his attitude after the bout against Iwasaki was like "another day in the office ... another young gun falling for this trick ... oh... well ....". he is fun to watch for sure.
