Kintamayama Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 A million thanks to our radio video stars Kintamayama & Tenshinhan for providing coverage of all sekitori bouts, that is pretty awesome! I am also positively surprised that the notorious bad commentator from the NSK stream - a.k.a. the "dou da?" dude - doesn't annoy me any longer. Was he fired? (that would be a more fitting situation for him to say "Saa, dou da?" Or is there a new feature that let's the user turn off the comment audio channel? They're not streaming the audio anymore. The audio comes from the in-house radio FM broadcast. I guess people complained or whatever.

I prefer the original NHK guys - classic, maybe a tad old-fashioned and boring, but at least they know what they are talking about.
Mukonoso Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Homarenishiki second bout + Bonus: From a distance Homarenishiki keeps reminding me of Foggy Nelson from Daredevil on Netflix.
hamcornheinz Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 at least he has his rikishi pokerface down.
WAKATAKE Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I think that was ex-Akinoshima during that one monoii, not ex-Chiyotaikai. 2
luispereira Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Day 07 is (slowly) uploading, have a nice weekend! 2
Kintamayama Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 I think that was ex-Akinoshima during that one monoii, not ex-Chiyotaikai. Yes it was. I was checking to see if anyone was watching.
Fukurou Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Homarenishiki's 4th bout: Geez, even I can tell he lines up way too far back and always goes high. One trick pony at this point, and his opponents have/are starting to get on to him.
Hakuhonofan Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Thanks as always, Moti. Your miracle works healed me from losing Bowie.
Tenshinhan Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Day 8 video links Unfortunately I had no time on Friday and Saturday. 5
Tenshinhan Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 A million thanks to our radio video stars Kintamayama & Tenshinhan Putting me and Kintamayama in one sentence is way too much honor. He is a hero for us sumo fans (and also the idol of Konishiki...) 1
Mukonoso Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) Homarenishiki's 4th bout: Geez, even I can tell he lines up way too far back and always goes high. One trick pony at this point, and his opponents have/are starting to get on to him. I've noticed his distance also but thought he was just being like Hakuho. Does standing back give one more charging power with the distance? Or does it allow a split second longer to gauge what the opponent is going to do? Edited January 17, 2016 by Mukonoso

I was thinking of Akebono but he would squat very far away, and then do his hands-down on the starting lines.
kuroimori Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Day 9 in the beloved database. Thanks so much for this! BTW, the faux french subtitles are hilarious :-D 1
Kintamayama Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 Kinta why uneasy after day 9? Chaotic.. I like order. 85 mattas and some sub-par sumo tend to do that to me.. 1
