Akinomaki 41,849 Posted May 5, 2015 (edited) Another NHK sumo program about the life of (weakest ever? 24-27-25) yokozuna Maedayama already starts in an hour at 17:15h JST http://www2.nhk.or.jp/hensei/program/p.cgi?area=001&date=2015-05-04&ch=21&eid=30163&f=etc As Takasago-oyakata he raised Takamiyama, the first foreigner in makuuchi http://datazoo.jp/tv/%E3%81%97%E3%81%93%E3%81%8F8/853568 Definitely fit to be the worst ever as a yokozuna That was a repeat from a local NHK station. On the net is a very old program with the same main title and about the life of Maedayama, but from the time when Kitanofuji (studio guest) was still Kokonoe-oyakata, with other contemporary scenes, with much studio talk and not in good quality - not even NHK, so maybe completely different. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-blnGKdreU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfaHBl1J3dA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFJM3zCCMIs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7MnvzTMjF4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ph9boxhUU8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlAIEQNJIEg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MUDrfRKcXQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84UODFwjr38 Edited May 5, 2015 by Akinomaki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akinomaki 41,849 Posted June 6, 2015 A good reason to try if NIJI still works:Fuji TV Sunday 19:58h-21:48 JST, Junk Sports with Terunofuji, Kyokutenho and Gagamaru (and other guests/hosts of no interest).80% of the program definitely will be junk, but the 10min. teaser program was quite interesting and last months program was very good, so it's worth watching.Program page (changes later) with more small pics and a short video.http://www.fujitv.co.jp/sports/special/junksports/index.html the program page from last months Junk Sports about sujo (sumo girls, the female fans said to be the reason for the recent sumo popularity) is in the archive on the bottom. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akinomaki 41,849 Posted June 7, 2015 Takeshi's sumo-do introduction at Tagonoura-beya was very interesting - not for long on the net I guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVomVBEdQRY 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akinomaki 41,849 Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) Not viewable on Niji, but even the teaser video is worth a look - one of the best sumo programs around for the time before and after the basho: Gappuri Soken with ex-Kotonishiki on BS Fuji. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsre6aJzlhA Edited June 7, 2015 by Akinomaki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
