Takayasu-okamisan Mori Konomi looks a different person now at her 36th birthday: for her new song she lost 10kg with muscle training arranged by Takayasu, pilates and a special diet, wants to get away from enka. The release of her new song Akai Tsuki (red moon) (on CD) was timed with her birthday today, announced as a bit in J-Pop style - but still sounds like her usual enka to me. Takayasu comment: "Extremely good song. With that she can be on the kohaku (NHK year end singing)"

The dream of her 2 year old son (Takayasu II) is yokozuna, so she says.

In May she was on the program  Oni-renchan fujitv.co.jp/oniren/, for the first time and the first ever enka singer to clear the challenge there (10 special mode karaoke songs in a row to get 1 million yen) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcplQfQkvaRq_BEFuOObAx9aQOZv8ScBD

Her arrangement is a bit different than normal, but her voice is grade A enka.

Kyokudozan's nephew Yamato Hata, son of sanyaku gyoji Kimura Hisanosuke won his super feather weight title fight today by TKO to become OPBF Oriental Pacific Champion.

Yamato Hata's latest successful title defence on the Dynamic Glove on U Next vol.34 event has caused plenty of upheaval in Japanese boxing circles.

His opponent, Shigetoshi Kotari, passed away from brain injuries a few days after he fought Yamato Hata to a draw.

Hiromasa Urakawa, another participant in the same event, also suffered the same fate after losing his bout - confirmed today/yesterday.

This double fatality has drawn immense attention even from mainstream international media and, according to a few of them, the JBO is holding an emergency meeting due to that pressure.

- I thought this might be something for What was today in sumo, but actually the article is about the grandson after his model debut having his actor debut next. In the film Junai https://www.junai-movie.com/,  based on a manga, to be released next year
