[Nikoshoryu 0]

Greetings to Forumers!

I am happy to announce publication of newly translated articles from earlier issues of Le Monde du Sumo and Le Petit Banzuke Illustre. From focus on a hot rising star, to a moving last goodbye to one of true greats of sumo world, the articles are:

- Hakuho: The white phoenix flies towards the summit (from PBI 15, may 2006)

- Kotonowaka's retreat: the mountain recedes! (from MDS 13, december 2005)

- An Interview With Fujishima Oyakata (from MDS 12, october 2005)

- Danpatsu-shiki of Musoyama Masashi, the 232th Ozeki (from MDS 12, october 2005)

- Death of Futagoyama Oyakata: the Prince of Sumo leaves us! (from MDS 10, june 2005)

You can find them, and many others, at the familiar address: http://www.lemondedusumo.com

Of course, all this would not be possible without continuing effort of our translators, proofreaders, layout makers and publishers. :-S

Thank you for your attention, and we will do our best to start bringing you fresh articles come autumn!
