From Day 13 NHK broadcasting:

NHK broadcaster Fujii with today's commentator Mainoumi Shuuhei, who seemingly was not all happy about Asashoryu's unscathed 12-0 victory.

Mainoumi: "If the more practiced Hakuho get beaten by hastily-prepared Asashoryu, Hakuho would be jeered!"

But hey Shuuhei, we won't jeer Hakuho even in that case, as we all know how Hakuho has been working hard and doing his job wonderfully as yokozuna; it's just you underestimated Asashoryu's potential as the 22-time tournament champion!

Tokitenku smiling at the back of hanamichi, as he finally made kachikoshi

Dejima, fallenl out of dohyo in his bout against Yamamotoyama

Dejima, still suffering from the left-arm injury on the previous day

Yamamotoyama, putting on a glasses soon after returning to hanamichi

Asashoryu, exchanging knuckle-greeting with Kyokutenho who just won over Baruto

(COOL!)

Minutes later...off to his own battlefield.
