Day 15:

[Nabuko]

Hakuho has called audience for observing minute of science during NHK interview. Why and for whom?

[Kaioshoryu]

Damn I missed you Kinta, welcome back!!

[yorikiried by fate]

Big thanks to all video contributers.

I just managed to watch the final day. Especially loved the Wakanosato-Jokoryu bout: veteraniest of veterans against upstartiest of upstarts. And then the old man showed where he's coming from and basically ate the boy's liver. Awesome.

Once again thanks to all those who uploaded the videos and those who filled in the missing ones. I'm always excited to see all the Makushita and Sandanme bouts (apart from the sekitori bouts of course).

And welcome back Kintamayama of course! Great video with all the playoff bouts.

[Bugman]

Thank you very much, i really appreciate the videos too.

[Kintamayama]

Thanks for thanking me. Pathetically, during the whole period I was partying in the US all I could think about was my not doing the videos..

Einstein?

To Taiho. My Japanese is so bad that I couldn't understand.

Hakuho asked the crowd at Bodymaker Colosseum to observe a moment of silence for Taiho, the most successful yokozuna in sumo who passed away in January.

“I would like to ask everyone, just for a minute, to pay our respects to Taiho — a great man,” Hakuho said.

[Borislav]

Thank you to Araibira, too, for the great effort. This basho I started following juryo, and started to like a lot Araibira's playlists. Quite handy.

[Naganoyama]

He was impressive enough fighting one bout per day, but like this, whoah, he's a monster!

[Benevolance]

I agree. Seeing his wins all in one go like this, he looks unstoppable!
