Akinomaki Posted August 9, 2015 Author Posted August 9, 2015 Musashigawa-oyakata at the Izu-Oshima summer festival fireworks in Tokyo's Oshima-machi (the island is part of the city of Tokyo, though 120 km away), with singer Hiromi Yamaguchi. The oyakata was named Sacred-Eruption/Flame-(=Oshima PR-)ambassador (maybe both meant for the hanabi and the island's volcano).http://www.daily.co.jp/gossip/2015/08/09/0008287885.shtmlhttp://www.nikkansports.com/entertainment/news/1520184.html 4

Glad to see Kyokutenho's portrait still hanging there :-) They were showing it nonstop on a big screen inside the entrance hall on maeuri day (Sat 8 August) where a couple of hundred people were sitting on chairs waiting for their seiriken number to come up.

Jakusotsu Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Read the text, he works as Furikake-oyakata for Nagatanien.That's exactly my problem - I can't read the Japanese text. Why Furikake? Some kind of pun?
torquato Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Furikake is the name of the seasoning and written on the package. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furikake Yes, it's a pun. 1

Gurowake Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) According to WWW JDIC, "furikake" is "dried food sprinkled over rice". From searching for a few of the kanji there in the press release, apparently "mountain ash" and some kind of sea weed (æµ·è‹” sea + moss) are part of it. Having no idea where the hiragana words separate, and not wanting to put the whole thing into Google translate, that's as much as I can get from it. Edited August 13, 2015 by Gurowake

WAKATAKE Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 He looks a lot more relaxed and I'm sure that he is going to be a good oyakata. Hopefully Oshima beya will make a comeback sometime in the future.
Akinomaki Posted September 12, 2015 Author Posted September 12, 2015 Oshima-oyakata was talk-show guest at this time's sumo-juku for the public in the sumo training institute, talking about his recollections from the time before and after entering Japan.http://www.daily.co.jp/newsflash/general/2015/09/12/0008389475.shtml- this often ends up on the net - 4
