Akinomaki Posted May 10, 2013 Author Posted May 10, 2013 Listening to the new songformer Tamanoshima (now Hanaregoma)Masunoyama with LINE characters.LINE is a social network app (for mobile phones I guess) for free calls and mail in Japan - and the NSK has become a member (http://lineat.jp/sumokyokai) and uses it for their own PR, like Twitter and facebook, giving presents to registered NSK-LINE users who come to the basho, selling LINE goods etc. Over 5000 are registered.AsahishoKyokutenhoKakuryuTakadagawa-oyakata (Akinoshima) in front of students from his old Akitsu middle school, with Tatsu, Akinoyama, Ryuden, Akinokawa, DaikamikazeRyudeneMs33 Tatsu (18)in a lottery during the basho for celebrating 20000 Twitter followers, picture taking and chanko with Tamanoi (here Takarafuji) or Hakkaku-beya rikishi can be won, all visiting followers get a present at the basho.chankoFujiazuma, 26 on the 19thbasho PR by Asakayama-oyakata (Kaio)Natsu basho PR by Ikioi with the mascotPR for a concert on June 22th, where he sings sumo jinkuKizenryu with now sold-out gift-ticketsDaikihoChiyonokuniHomasho 32 on the 16thGoeidoKyokushuhoFuriwake-oyakataTochihiryu 26 on the 23rdShohozanTamaasuka 7
Seijakuzan Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Whoa, seeing Kisenosato smiling just blew my mind. Awesome photos! Edited May 10, 2013 by Seijakuzan
Asashosakari Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Wakakoyu looks like he can't believe somebody wants to take a picture of him. 2
Masumasumasu Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Wakakoyu looks like he can't believe somebody wants to take a picture of him. Waka is one of the friendliest rikishi around. Why do you want to run him down?
Bugman Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Fantastic photographs, a smiling Kisenosato! First time i ever saw that, he should smile more often it suits him.
Mukonoso Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Alright! Now I can follow sumo on my LINE account too! Going to have to turn the sound off if they update too often though.
Manekineko Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 (edited) NSK is really ramping up the PR effort - nice. Thank you for the photos! Edited May 13, 2013 by Manekineko

yorikiried by fate Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 I created a really funny photoshopped version of the Kaisei pic, and I've tried to dump/link it, but since I'm in f*cking Latvia with only a f*cking mobile phone stick with a nightmarish data rate, nothing seems to work. Except Google's frightening (and unasked for) protection algorithms, which keep informing me that attempted access to my gmail account has been blocked, as someone tried to do that from Latvia! Well yes *I* tried! Morons. To cut to the chase: No funny pic... (Blowing up furiously...)
Treblemaker Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Kise's got another shiner? He gets injured more often than Sidney Crosby. What happened to him this time? Fantastic pics. Absolutely love seeing these guys away from the dohyo and the pressure. 1
Naganoyama Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Some fun pictures there. Thanks for all your effort even between the basho.

botev1921 Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 hair care at Kasugano-beya for Tochiozan and Tochinoshin, and Aoiyama showing that he can be over-hyped, too Shocking, you show 2-3 pics of my guy (just because he is with the others at one of the biggest beya) and now he is over-hyped too? Sarcasm or pure idiotism? If I knew better, I would say you are British.
Akinomaki Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Just referring to his over-hyped pose, while Tochinoshin looks cool.
