Kensho Hatsu 2022

Recommended Posts

I'm checking the kensho maker site sometimes to see if the Pokemon kensho list appears - likely it still isn't complete. Another new kensho has appeared though - from the kawaikabu marketing company (kabu like in Omicron kabu, stem of bacteria or virus, another meaning aside from the kabu we know in sumo) for the kawai faecal bacteria for beauty and health, Enterococcus faecalis kawai (not the cute kawai you might think is meant, it's the name of research company 河合) http://tomac-kuramae.co.jp/prize/1001/

Meisei from below 10 to 4, quite a jump. Last time on the list he had 28, with a bunch from Shodai - he lost 2 then, so 25 were in the bunch.

Day 12 Pokemon - I wonder what they did with all the kensho scheduled for the many kyujo rikishi bouts, they want to show them all, so they should have been redistributed - no info about that so far

Wow, despite doing pretty terribly in the basho, Shodai is still in third place. Guess it's good to be Ozeki.

An exciting basho that was made just a bit more interesting with the bevy of Pokemon Kensho which were heroically represented in Akinomaki's excellent (and time consuming to create) kensho and daily photographs posts.
By my count, there were 236 unique Pokemon kensho this basho.  Two Pokemon, つっぱりポケモン ハリテヤマ (Tsuppari Pokemon Hariteyama) & ねずみポケモン  ピカチュウ (Nezumi Pokemon Pikachū) were featured in the opening and closing bouts of the tournament.  Pikachū made a third appearance in the 12th bout of Day 7.
I enjoy the graphics of the characters, their colors, background and the names rendered in 髭文字 Higemoji style kanji.  I created a web page with the illustrations shared by Akinomaki to engender an appreciation of sumo among my younger family & friends who are more knowledgeable about the Pocket Monster phenomenon.
With Akinomaki's kind permission, I am offering the link.  Note:  It does not include day 15 photos yet.  I will try to promptly update the page when the senshuraku kensho pictures arrive.
(I believe the day 11 bout between Ishiura & Tobizaru was the only contest without kensho on the daily programs this basho.)
