Akame 0 Posted February 22 Hello friends, I am just curious to know if there is any dataset available which includes the citizenship data of Rikishi from 1983 onwards. Thanks and regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atenzan 984 Posted February 22 A good place to start would be the SumoDB; you have the option to see shusshin and highlight the non-Japanese ones, like this. There's also a lot of good nuggets of information on Naganoyama's site, perhaps the Special Categories tab would be a good place to start (here). But do keep in mind that neither of those things reflects actual citizenship 100% accurately, if that's strictly what you're looking for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akame 0 Posted February 22 Thankyou for providing the above resources. Is there any resource where we get to know if any Rikishi changed their citizenship to Japanese citizenship at any period of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kamitsuumi 84 Posted Monday at 19:41 There is a category of naturalized Japanese rikishi on Japanese Wikipedia: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:帰化日本人の大相撲力士 Otherwise it's safe to assume that any oyakata would have Japanese citizenship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
