Here is the 2024 Banzuke!!  No new Yokozuna or Ozeki this year.  Ozeki Chisaiyama had a nice 10-5 to remain Ozeki, but now Pandaazuma is in the hotseat to drop if no winning record next year.   The leading candidates for Ozeki are Cydrome and Pitinosato.

Here is the 2025 Banzuke!!  Komosubi Obana has 35 wins over the last three basho, so gets a nice Ozeki promotion.  Ozeki Pandaazuma needed a winning record to keep Ozeki rank – and did so.  Torideyama, Kintamayama, and Sukubidubu are the leading Sekiwake/Komosubi candidates for Ozeki promotion next year.

[Jejima]

Jejima goes from M2W --> M2E with an 11-4 record?  

(Sukibidubidu is now a Komusubi from M1W after a 10-5 record....)

[shimodahito]

Good day Jejima.  It was very crowded at the top, but I will take a look.  But in full disclosure -- libations are involved during banzuke updates.

[Xiongmao]

I'm now trying to work out how I am an ozeki in this game when I don't remember even entering it for at least four or five years!!

I'm now trying to work out how I am an ozeki in this game when I don't remember even entering it for at least four or five years!!

 

 

So, as Pandaazuma, you picked Hakurozan and mS7W back in 2020 (COVID year).  Each year since then, shimodahito has carried over your pick as he does for everyone.  Since Hakurozan has not retired, and continues to get the torch at some point each year - you get points.  And so far, under the normal Ozeki rules, he has been able to get you a kachi-koshi at least every other year (I haven't researched the records for those years for you).  And in 2020, your Ms7W pick got you the points in the 5 basho year.

So your amazing pick in 2020 has led to your amazing run without you lifting a finger.  Well done!

[Jejima]

Last year Jejima went from M2W to M2E with an 11-4 record. This year Jejima keeps the M2E rank with an 8-7 record.

So in three banzukes Jejima has moved from M2W to M2E despite two KKs and an overall 19-11 score?

Every year another sanyaku slot opens up as it gets real tight at the top.  I am trying not to repeat what happened last year when you pointed out at M2W & 11-4, felt you should have jumped ahead of the M1W & 10-5.  That did not happen this year as I made sure the 9-6 and 11-4 jumped ahead of the 8-7.  So made some adjustments, but in the end, still not sure which outcome would be taught at banzuke school. 

[Torideyama]

O illustrious rijicho,

I am truly honored (and a bit amazed) to be promoted to Ozeki in Torchbearer.  I will endeavor to uphold the dignity of the rank to which I have ascended, and as I am 66 years old, will hope to retire at this rank at some point in time.   

Omedeto Gozaimashita!!  Gambatte!
