Neither fragile nor sentimental really covers the case here, but fragile is far better. In such a case I might use some more general word, like weak or immature. I asked a couple of japanese friends before you commented and finally got an answer this morning. From what I was told "weak" seems to be the closest translation :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't translate the word at all if I find no really fitting term for it and use a phrase that conveys what I want to transmit. I'd say "he can't take much yet".

Kintamayama 44,354 Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) Today, it was Tomokaze's turn to borrow Hakuhou's chest and train. Before that, Tomokaze faced Kakuryuu and was 2-3, quite respectable. Hakuhou proceeded to treat him to a 7 minute experience of intense training. They have not faced each other on the dohyo during a basho or even in training, but they will next basho. "I'll be happy if he forever remembers this," said Hakuhou later. "I am honored. There are Makuuchi rikishi who never get called out, so I'm happy. It's a valuable experience. I have felt the greatness of the Yokozuna," said Tomokaze, as an edited insert. Hakuhou has been training the new Juryo rikishi these last few days. "This whole jungyo would be a success if they feel a little that they were able to gambarize by being led by their elders.." he added. He still hasn't faced the other two Juryo up and comers Ryuukuo and Kizakiumi. Ryuukuo has an injury and has returned to Tokyo. "I told Kizakiumi I was thinking of training with him today and he laughed nervously.. Well, the jungyo has just started so plenty of time left for that.." he added. Today they started with the "group moshiai" so Makuuchi rikishi had more time to train. "So, no makekoshi so far, huh?"

Today butsukari geiko with Abi "Promoted to Komusubi last basho thanks to some Banzuke luck" Ryuden vs "likely not promoted to Komusubi next basho thanks to banzuke bad luck" Hokutofuji.

Rainoyama 1,157 Posted August 1, 2019 So much content for this jungyo. No sure if it was reported already but Takanosho who is in line to return to makuuchi next basho injured his right knee the other day and therefore pulled out of the jungyo yesterday. His stablemate Takagenji who was out from the start is not joining any time soon. According to his oyakata "The pain in his ankles is not gone yet". As for Takakeisho, as it's been reported above he is very unlikely to join. "His right knee is doing better day after day" according to the oyakata, for now he is receiving treatment and doing rehabilitation with specialists. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
