Just noticed something weird with some ex-Miyagino men, other than the ones that are fully kyujo this basho, Tenshoho, Matsui and Onokura were participating this basho, but sat out for a couple days, but then came back in, maybe something behind the curtains happening or just kyujo due to the fear of Hakuoho's COVID spreading? Doesn't really make sense as the three came back a couple days later, and all kyujo were on different days.

It does kind of make sense, though. They aren't forcing whole heya to go kyujo for any case of COVID like before - control's definitely not as tight. And everyone's different when it comes to the period of incubation - not to mention they didn't all necessarily catch it on the same day, it could've spread across a few. Presuming they're all going kyujo when COVID's symptoms are at their roughest, they'll likely be scattered across a week or so.

Miyagino beya will continue to be part of Isegahama beya in Nagoya as well, it was reported today. "I have been receiving reports on his progress. This is done  basho by basho. Next basho? At this juncture, I think this will continue," said Sadogatake Oyakata in charge of PR. "I hear from Isegahama Oyakata that he is doing well. He is donning a mawashi and giving first-hand advice during training as well," added Asakayama Oyakata, the other guardian..

Today the next regular course for all about 900 NSK members, after an address by Hakkaku, 2 lecturers: one researcher of control of conditioned reflexes from the Shimofusa Psychiatric Medical Center, about control of sudden fury, and the NSK responsible for education and training with "You are all successors of sumo's traditional culture"

Always in response to scandals like the present one, these courses are held. The course in anger management this time was in the focus in the news, though Hokuseiho apparently did all in cold blood, for enjoyment.

Tospo in connection with this reports that now Mongolians in school clubs aiming to become rikishi are bashed - for the deeds of a Mongolian not even listed as Mongolian by the NSK. The coach of a high school sumo club: "I'm living under the same roof with a high school student who came from Mongolia, really raising him like a son. But with a scandal like this reported, I hear things like 'Are you raising rikishi like Hokuseiho also in this high school?' Kids from Mongolia are equalled with Hokuseiho now."

Who said that Hokuseiho did it “in cold blood, for enjoyment”.

The multiparty Diet members caucus demanding development of ozumo held a meeting today in the National Diet - they react to scandals

They discussed the penalty for Hakuho - too harsh was the opinion from members present, but there were also voices claiming that he judgement of the NSK was not wrong o

From the NSK PR top Sadogatake was there, the caucus wants that the NSK to name the conditions for the end of the punishment. Chairman Hirasawa: "It is a problem that it is unclear what will become of it from now on." o

That's surprising -- most rikishi don't look like they're from a nation that's on a diet.

According to a tabloid article, poor living conditions at Isegahama (cramped basement without windows or ventilation, high humidity) caused a COVID outbreak that explains an unsually high kyujo numbers in Natsu. Also, there is no wi-fi reception in the basement, and rikishi have to wait for an hour and a half to take a shower after training.

If any of it is true, the whole Miyagino - Isegahama merger looks more and more like a disaster.

Which is what the NSK wanted in the first place. To destroy 2 of the most successful heyas/oyakatas currently

Hokuseiho today appeared at Arashio-beya, smiling all the time, still with mage, with beard. He waited in the vicinity during keiko, then entered the heya, greeted the heya members and the sekitori on degeiko, Kirishima etc. About the next things: "Nothing is decided yet" - danpatsushiki and more http://www.sanspo.com/article/20240903-PQH23GBTI5NCVHH2IRKX557UZQ/

Getting thrown out for bullying and then having a danpatsushiki with full honours... I know that's the tradition but this is something I can never comprehend.

So is there any update when Miyagino would be allowed to reopen his heya?

No, but a regular sports paper and not just the tabloids commented on it today. Because of the indefinite closure, the regional basho locations are affected: the one for Kyushu had to demolish the old training hall at the Nanzoin temple in Sasaguri, Fukuoka. "Had Miyagino come, that would not have been done this year." And all efforts to rebuild it are on hold. The Kyushu koenkai had to return this year's membership fees  - all support for the heya has stopped.

Isegahama and Asakayama report the results of the "education" of Miyagino to the NSK and according to the content of that evaluation, they decide the time to reopen the heya.

I heard as part of the punishment, that when miyagino beya reopens, he can only have Chiyoshoma as his singular deshi for 6 months. And instead of chanko nabe, Chiyoshoma will just go to 7-11 and select a couple of ready to eat bento.

And when ex-Hakuho tries to grab one, Chiyoshoma henkas it away from him?

No, i only got our photo taken. I was too scared to speak with him. I did have a short conversation with the okamisan regarding my shikona.

As for Miyagino beya, gut feeling.
