Mitakeumi has only been in Ozumo for less than three years,  but established himself as a lower sanyaku stalwart last year.   How will he do in 2018?  Will he drop down from the Sekiwake ranks?  If yes, how far will he drop? Please note, question 1 has been changed to LOWEST rank for Mitakeumi during the year.
Question 2 now requires TWO defeats (one of which may be a fusensho win) by Mitakeumi over a Yokozuna or Ozeki.  (If any of the current Yokozunas or Ozekis retires during the year, they will be ignored for the purpose of this question, when checking the results at the end of next year.)
