Kintamayama 47,335 Posted July 17 (edited) This needs to be addressed. The best yobidashi by far is Kunio. Most of the others are tone deaf or very nearly tone deaf. Kunio has a great voice. But that's not why I'm here. He's 52 years old. Never seen anything like it in any amusement hall. Impossible. I would really like to know his secret. This is seriously troubling me, as I'm 71 but I look 104 and three months. In real life he looks even younger. Edited July 17 by Kintamayama 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kunio has a great voice. Yes, he has the best voice in ozumo. I can throw the weight of my five degrees in music behind this statement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the oyakata division, I've seen similar comments online about Hanaregoma/Tamanoshima and Tatsunami/Asahiyutaka (the latter of whom has always looked super young for a guy in his 50s, now approaching 60) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naganoyama 6,043 Posted July 17 Kunio is good-looking too. He could have been a popstar. Ah. I understand what happened. He was going to try and get into the music business but the gods of sumo wanted him in the ring. They made a deal with him that he would have eternal youth, but in return he would have to forego superstardom. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Churaumi 753 Posted July 21 (edited) The kyokai is leaving money on the table. I'd buy a Kunio album. Ex-Ikkioi too. Edited July 21 by Churaumi Fixed something, here there be pedants 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
