inhashi 2,363 Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) Mochi making (mochitsuki) season is keeping the heyas preoccupied. These are several shots of glutinous rice pounding. Tagonoura beya Kisenosato doing his best Yoisho! Miyagino (these two shots are from a couple years back) Tatsunami beya posted by Akua (he's the one holding the mallet). Who's face is in the mortar? Kokonoe beya in 2013 Tomozuna beya with Oshima (Kyokutenho) Isegahama beya's oyakata (Asahifuji). Edited December 20, 2015 by inhashi 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

d_golem 213 Posted December 26, 2015 Just downloaded the 2015 New Years Gaki no Tsukai Batsu Games Prison a few days ago and was shocked (and shortly after my stomach was in stitches form laughing so hard) to see Furiwake-oyakata in a drama skit, wow he's got a natural talent for comedy for sure!

Seijakuzan 59 Posted January 4, 2016 Rice Bowl with Homarenishiki and Shinshunishiki today. Incredible finish to a great game. Best season-ender in a long time. I feel sorry for the people sitting immediately behind Brodi. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seijakuzan 59 Posted January 5, 2016 I wonder what percentage of sekitori are actually able to get away with a single seat on a train or airplane. Furthermore, are two seats even enough for Gagamaru? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orandashoho 718 Posted January 5, 2016 Not to mention the weight... This summer I took a very heavy (200kg+) person up for a scenic flight in my plane. It was possible only by sliding the seat back to an almost neutral balance point in between the front and the middle seats. It was quite a challenge getting in and out but we managed it without breaking anything, and the plane was close to the maximum safe takeoff weight for that runway with only the two of us on board. My passenger had a great time in the air and afterwards told me that it was a dream come true, it had never been possible to go flying before. All I need to do now is to fly my rikishi-proof plane halfway around the world to Japan... ummm... a nice thought but a much bigger challenge. However, if there is ever going to be an European sumo tour... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

inhashi 2,363 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in oyakata activites, but chose this thread due to the laughable nature of it. Futagoyama posted this several hours ago after Day 12 excitement. I wish I was a fly on the wall listening to their casual thoughts on the basho and it's development. Drinks are on Mary had a little lamb... He made the children laugh and play, laugh and play, laugh and play... ..and everywhere that Mary went the lamb was sure to go. ♪ Oshima snores loudly in a lucid state. ♫ Edited January 21, 2016 by inhashi 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jakusotsu 4,425 Posted January 21, 2016 Jolly good! :-) Just to make sure we're on the same level here: Homasho, Kotooshu, Kyokutenho, Wakanosato, Kimurayama, Miyabiyama, Bushuyama? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryoshishokunin 200 Posted January 22, 2016 I must say that it's not at all uncommon for people to fall asleep/pass out at drinking events in Japan. There's one of my colleagues that has an unbeaten streak of doing so at every party we have... It's still cute, mind :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
