yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 13, 2018 Awww. Is there a way to resolve this? Are there any other picture hosting sites aside from photobucket that won't have this kind of problem? I just started to post pic here so I don't know how you do it properly. Any help will be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 13, 2018 Yes, thank you I know that already. Aki and Jaku already informed me. What I need now is a way to resolve this. How are people posting pictures here in the forums? Do they have special privileges? Do I need to be a certain rank? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 13, 2018 OK... So I edited the links. I'm using Google photos now. Hope the links are working now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Power (strength), Technique, Speed, Physical fitness and ビーン (which I cannot figure out; it might be short for something...). EDIT: Ah, for Tochinoshin today, instead of ビーン (which they had listed for Ichinojou), they put '鼻', which means nose! For Takakeisho, they put '寿司' - sushi! So I think the last category might be a joke one for each rikishi... Edited March 14, 2018 by Yatagarasu 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I think the last category might be a joke one for each rikishi... Other 'special powers':- Kotoshogiku = justice Mitakeumi = bananas Takayasu = food Tamawashi = sweets (he is apparently an amateur pastry chef) Endo = peaches Goeido = meat Kakuryuu = kindness / gentleness. He also got a video game style 'S' rank. The lady commentator today said that her special power would probably be 'uni' - sea urchin. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it is the group "AK 69" singing "The Red Magic" and the video shows sekitori doing poses and stuff, and it is great! It is the Abema TV Ozumo commercial I think.

yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 15, 2018 That link is already changed. It's just a screenshot of some of the pre-match graphics that I took from the Abema live broadcast. I thought they looked badass and wanted to share some of the ones I managed to capture during the broadcast. I'm trying to get several screenshots and make an album or perhaps wallpaper or screen saver for my computer. See my previous posts for the updated links that I posted. They are now hosted in Google photos. Hopefully, the links are working fine. Please advise if there are problems so I can take a look and try to resolve. Thanks!

yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 15, 2018 Would anyone like me to post more of the screenshots I got of the introduction graphics of some of the sumo wrestlers that Abema TV deemed worthy of having one? I've gotten 'cleaner' screenshots meaning there is no "Press "Esc" to exit full screen" overlay and no icons on the lower right corner of the volume control and the cross-like thingy to exit full screen as well. I've gotten quite good at timing my screenshots just right that you get the full clear picture without the player overlays. As I've said, they really look real good as desktop wallpapers, cover photos or photo screensavers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 15, 2018 (edited) Oh what the heck... I'd post them anyway. Here are the links of what I've got.

yutarotanaka 104 Posted March 15, 2018 Tamawashi's facial expression and demeanor in his poses reminds me of Tomohiro Waki's gangster character in Gokusen. Such a badass. Haha. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ALAKTORN 346 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Konishiki as guest today. Doing good work! Much better than yesterday’s commentary. lol Edit: Apparently it’s Takanohana’s birthday today, Konishiki wishing him a happy birthday live. lol Edit: Maybe I misheard because Takanohana’s birthday is August 12 apparently.

mbovo 244 Posted March 17, 2018 Today I've tried Abema for the first time because of all the madness on the regular Japanese TV channels that normally broadcast sumo. I've got to say picture quality is a disappointment compared to what I'm used to, the music in the background gets annoying pretty quickly and all those commercials make it even worse. Fingers crossed that NHK G and NHK BS1 pull themselves together. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fingers crossed that NHK G and NHK BS1 pull themselves together. It's definitely a different atmosphere in Abema TV compared to NHK's regular coverage. A lot of gimmicky things going around. Like Moti-san said, it's quite the circus in there. Edited March 17, 2018 by yutarotanaka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
