Yokozuna Asashoryu still is undefeated and finishes the first week with an 8-0 record. But his four pursuers won't let him walk away as all four won today as well. Ozeki Kaio also won and is the only Sanyaku left at two losses as Musoyama and Wakanosato lost today.

In Juryo five rikishi lead at 6-2 with Wakanoyama, Chiyotenzan, Futeno, Hakuho and Juryo-jiri Juzan. Hamanishiki looks totally changed over the last few days. The first days he looked quite injured and limping, but the last days he limped no more and won in powerful ways.

Today the emperor was present, and thus the dohyo-iri was different than usual. Doitsuyama, would it be possible for you to make a clip showing either or both of the nakabi makuuchi dohyo-iri, if you have that recorded from the stream?

Some stills will appear soonish on the pics thread (of all 3 ceremonial events) Juryo being normal, Makuuchi rather special and the younger lads too.

I made a clip as requested, covering the whole Makuuchi dohyō-iri.

This was great! Thanks. :-)

The level of synchronisation of the ritual movements was a bit disappointing (perhaps I have been spoilt by watching British ceremonies like the Changing of the Guard and Trooping the Colour) but they didn't even seem to crouch and rise together.

It was quite interesting to see who was relaxed and who fidgeted as it was their turn to stand up and be announced. It didn't seem to relate to how well they were doing in the basho either. (Not that you would necessarily expect it to, come to think of it, but it also did not seem to relate to 'presence' in the dohyo during a bout)

Some of them just stood up and were calm and still. (e.g. Tosanoumi, Hayateumi, Shimotori) Others (e.g. Chiyotaikai, Wakanosato, Takanonami) seemed to worry suddenly that they had forgotten to put on their kesho mawashi after their shower and just had to check. (Flies open syndrome?)

Would it be possible to put up a clip of a normal dohyo-iri from this basho? I would be really interested to see more detail of this too.
