Interestingly, this o-sumou-san channel had so far videos of the sumo cats Mugi and Moru in Arashio-beya http://www.sumoforum.net/forums/topic/34846-rikishi-with-cats/?do=findComment&comment=336749

Is there a sumo-ji font available, ideally for free? 

If your search for a free one, you basically get "forget it" as the comment - and also the commercial fonts not really look satisfying enough to be worth the price of usually over 10 000yen to buy them in a font package.

The best looking so far among the free fonts for me is Rounded-X M+ 1c black http://jikasei.me/font/rounded-mplus/about.html
