Asanoyama, final against Takekaze Runner-up Takekaze had a 1st round win against Kotoshogiku Goeido lost in the 2nd round to Daishomaru, Harumafuji (to Kagayaki) and Kakuryu (to Ikioi) in the 1st round and Hakuho only did the dohyo-iri, the 2nd this day. o o Juryo was won by Seiro. Aminishiki was there - in juryo. All year as a 38 year old he was in juryo, tomorrow he turns 39 - and will return to makuuchi. But that isn't a goal: "I think of it only as a transit point, above there also is more (sanyaku)." http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/201710020000636.html Edited October 2, 2017 by Akinomaki 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gurowake 4,154 Posted October 4, 2017 Is this one of those with a decent prize pool that would encourage those below sanyaku to contest it more while the relative value to Ozeki and Yokozuna is less such that they don't care as much? It seems like they're all won by some Yokozuna or Ozeki, but all the rest lose really early. It's like they decided beforehand who was going to actually contest it, and the rest just didn't want to get (more) injured. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm not mistaken the Fuji TV tournament in February is the only prize money tournament these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akinomaki 41,840 Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) The channel that posted the sf and final - and the other dohyo-iri that day at the Meiji shrine - also posted the dohyo-iri of the 4 yokozuna in the kokugikan (who knows how often we will see that in the future) Kisenosato https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_3r6L4Fv5Y Harumafuji https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPs-UxdcKNQ Hakuho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a--kGqTmMc Kakuryu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVOHQSrB0z4 and shokkiri: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ru-CD3cksrg Edited October 12, 2017 by Akinomaki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
