A smile has been spotted on Kisenosato's face for the first time ever!

Something is not right. He seemed waaay too happy today.

Sad for Oosunarashi and Aminishiki.

Calm start with no surprises. Nice win from Ura as well. And terunofuji seems ok, i mean, much better than last time.

To get a pic from your computer to the forum, the best way is to put it on a photo-hosting site first. Here are three good ones (I use the first).

Upload your image onto the site, right click on it to get its address, come back to your post on the forum, click on the image icon in the toolbar, paste the address, click on OK and it's in your post.

+++ BREAKING NEWS +++

A smile has been spotted on Kisenosato's face for the first time ever!

From the moment they showed him waiting under the stands, he couldn't seem to keep that smirk off his face.

Has he listened to Hakuho's comment about changing his demeanour?

Ura, Sato & Daiki all pick up a nice wins in Juryo!

Oyanagi keeps on bullying the Makushita division. Are we gonna make some bets that he will go 7-0 and be Juryo next basho? He seems unstoppable.

Shodai picks up a win against Ikioi which is nice to see!

I hope Terunofuji will be making a good comeback. I would hate to see him be demoted to Sekiwake. He is clearly an Ozeki (before Injury looked like a Yokozuna).

Kisenosato smiled? Could he finally be confident in taking it all? Inb4 he will get 14-1 J and still not get promoted. Hakuho is going for 15-0.

Watched the last 5 bouts on NHK premium today. Harumafuji's footwork was amazing to see. Round and round and round and down you go!

I guess his heya-mates pulled a prank and smeared superglue on his pillow.

It's my guess that something, ahem, nice happened to him last night.

Ura was so nervous, he came to the juryo dohyo-iri with Gagamaru's kesho-mawashi.

Google Translate

Ten cars - the back is win start, ring entering ceremony is apron happening of senior pupil
 "Sumo Nagoya place the first day" (10 days, Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium)
 West ten both 8-th of the back (24) = Kise = issued a first day and pushed down the east Fuji.
 Received a bracing of the other party, but was not placed in a quite, dive into the bosom at a lower position than the tightness of the opponent, it was pushed down from the left to see the machine.
 On this day there is a mistake in the set-up, was ring entering ceremony with the apron of the senior pupil-Gakibamaru. Although there has been a change in the usual and routine, looked back to the calm and completely without problem "did not afford I was well leave. It was good to win (on the first day)."

I thought that Kise might have tried some traditional herbal treatment - which involves inhaling -, but then he probably wouldn't have made it to his bouts in time or would have been veeeery late at the tachi-ai or would have started to giggle...

A chance to wind down - or should I say a chance to unwind?
