Akinomaki 39,797 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) On 25.4.2017 at 16:28, Akinomaki said: In the design for the Hokuto-no-ken kesho-mawashi set for Kisenosato for the first time manga characters from anime are used for a yokozuna set - so far only for individual kesho mawashi, recently Kinnikuman for Chiyotairyu, and also Tetsuwan-atom and Bakabon were used Also for a yokozuna set there are some with characters designed by manga artists though, but not for manga and anime On 31.12.2014 at 16:03, Akinomaki said: Hakuho will get a kesho-mawashi set with a character designed by the late manga artist Takashi Yanase, the creator of Anpanman. Tachi-mochi and tsuyu-harai have the kanji 愛 ai (love) and 勇気 yuuki (courage), like in the words of the popular Anpanman march, opening theme from the anime, lyrics by Yanase. One of his supporting companies presents it to him, Asahi-ryokuken, who sells an aojiru health drink for which Hakuho does CMs More famous is this one from Yanase On 16.10.2013 at 16:16, Akinomaki said: Toyonoshima put the photo of a (not new, but …) keshō-mawashi on his blog, designed by Takashi Yanase the creator of Anpan-man (picture book/manga/anime for small kids – I liked it from the start on TV in Oct. 1988, just my level at the time), who died on the 13th at the age of 94. He like Toyonoshima was from Kochi pref. http://ameblo.jp/toyonoshima-daiki/entry-11639402065.html My post about the kinnikuman kesho mawashi apparently is one of the many that have been slaughtered by the forum update Local mascot characters from the rikishi's place of origin are also quite common recently On 23.6.2016 at 15:46, Akinomaki said: Daiki ... will get one in time for the basho from his Saitama Tokorozawa locals, with the city's mascot Tokoron as the design. 96 versions so far: http://www.city.tokorozawa.saitama.jp/iitokoro/tokoron/tokoronillust.html I expected them to add a sumo one for Daiki - they didn't, just used the pointing version above, pointing to his shikona Sadanoumi has Kumamon, Tokushoryu got one with Nara's Sento-kun I'll post more about the manga ones later Edited April 26, 2017 by Akinomaki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asameshimae 220 Posted April 29, 2017 I wonder who put up that Pepsi masashi of Takatoriki? I wouldn't be surprised if Takatoriki needs the money.. Anyway, this has got me really interested in kesho-mawashi of antiquity. Would love to see more pics of older kesho-mawashi - though they are likely less imaginative. Too bad that the further back you go (and not that far back) all pics would be black and white. I'm thinking I saw a kesho-mawashi exhibit in the sumo museum not terribly long ago?

He may keep it and later his family owns it, or donate it - back to the donor, the heya or elsewhere.

It was used that year (only?) for the dohyo-iri at the Ise shrine dohyo-iri, at the festivities for the renewal every 20 years of the shrine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqeHpt2svK4 and at the Nagoya-basho.
