Who´s who

Hi everyone,

 

I´m a Portuguese sumo fan, last year while in Tokyo I made a quick visit to the Kokugikan and there were several rikishi doing their medical tests (I think), I took photos of a few of them but I don´t recognize many, most were young rikishi as they didn´t have their topknot yet.

I can see that most people here are really knowledgeable I think it will be possible to identify the rikishi from the pictures I took, at least most of them.

All pictures were taken on August 21st 2023 (I hope this is the right subforum for this thread).

I start with those I know,

1 - Takanosho was the easiest one:

2 - By then I never heard of Onosato:

3 - I think there´s Aonishiki on the left, the others I don´t have a clue:

4 - This one may be difficult because of the face mask:

I have more pictures but I think I exceeded the kb I can upload here.

Boa tarde!

3) A partir da esquerda;

Aonishiki, Anosho, Agora (Ajigawa-beya)

 

By the way, if you're struggling with this forum's upload limits, I suggest uploading your pictures to Imgur and posting their individual links here.

I believe this fella is ex-Ōtake-beya's Hamasaki who retired last September.
