Tsuchinoninjin 1,281 Posted December 22, 2023 Tochinoshin has started selling his wine in earnest, an article about it. https://jbpress.ismedia.jp/articles/-/78356 Despite the article having 'No question off limits!' in the title, its quite mundane as you'd expect. Six different wines, 5500 yen a bottle. He drinks 3 bottles per day. https://royalgeorgia.official.ec/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akinomaki 41,187 Posted February 4, 2024 Highlights: the other cutters, Kusano, Takasu, Asashoryu, Kokkai, brother & father, father in law&son, the NSK cutters till the final address. Kotonowaka dohyo-iri, sanyaku soroibumi with Mitakeumi (win over Daieisho), ozeki bout Kotonowaka win against Kirishima and then Hoshoryu wins against Terunofuji - Setsubun activity meant the kyujo is over. Takakeisho is really injured. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dingo 1,388 Posted February 4, 2024 It's always nice to see the danpatsushiki photos of a rikishi especially as popular as Tochinoshin. However the most important news to me is about Aoiyama and Takakeisho. It doesn't bode well if they're even in no shape to show up to a danpatsushiki. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
