1st for DAN the MAN

2nd for Kayo the shitter.

Kirishima Ozeki before this year ends.
Dan Ozeki in less than one year from now.
Kusano Ozeki in less than two years from now.

>>149841950
Kayo is the Chiyomaru of the current era. His roundness is nearly perfect, on the JSA page for him they don't list his height and weight, they radius and density.

>>149841969
Takerufuji has taught me that no one is Ozeki material until they've pulled a winning record in the joi. Dan probably gets one this time. Kusano isn't even worth talking about yet. He's gonna end up inhaling steroids like Takkers and have a heart attack in the dohyo.

>>149841997
I believe in Kusano.
Chicken-legs was never good to begin with and everyone who believed in him was retarded. His yusho was a pure fluke and nothing more.
Not only he has chicken-legs, but now also he has a broken wing. Truly a chicken.

>>149842043
>His yusho was a pure fluke
I've argued before that low Maegashiras having easy schedules makes it easier for them to randomly spike. It's how you get stupid shit like Kinbozan in a yusho playoff back in January at M14 after going 2-2 against Sanyaku opponents.

>>149842076
Pretty much.

>>149842043
Kusano is clearly very good with an excellent combination of skill, coordination and ability, but his size is not overwhelming and he might hit a wall when he gets into the heart of makuuchi and is no longer up against borderline juryo guys. Onosato raced up to the top on the strength of being one of the biggest guys in the division and Kusano doesn't have that advantage.

>>149842147
>his size is not overwhelming
Just push their legs out from under them lmao.

>>149842327
That one anon really nailed when he called it trying to henka a glacier

>>149842380
I really don't know what Abi was thinking. Is he trying to have the technically worst basho of all time? After 6 days he's henka'd 3 times and lost to a henka once.

>>149842403
Holy fuck Takerufuji is intai???

>>149842751
nigga his bicep tore in half

>>149842773
YEAH AND I PICKED HIM FOR FANTASY SUMO

THAT PIECE OF SHIT

AND MY SUBSTITUTE IS FUCKING ROGA

>>149842806
kek.

>>149842826
I DID IT FOR THE FUTAGOYAMA KOGA MEMES

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN!!!

>>149842773
Nothing a little kineso tape won't fix

>>149843207
>Torn bicep? Just do your shiko, hit teppo and eat your chanko and it should be alright.
>Thank you shisho. I'll follow your words, ganbarize and do my style of sumo

>>149843585
>>Thank you shishi
O_O

>At least I...went 4-2 at...Maegashira 6...

>>149843914
......and was the first rikishi to win his makuuchi debut in over 100 years

>>149844000
After beating such stiff competition as
>*checks notes*
J1e Tokihayate

Meanwhile Onosato has to beat chumps like Terunofuji, Kotozakura, and H*shoryu for his yusho.

>>149844037
Onosato lost to Onosho, Kotonowaka, Hoshoryu and Terunofuji in his debut. If he'd beaten even one of the ozeki and not lost to Onosho, he could've had a playoff at least.

Takerufuji DID beat one of the ozeki (and also beat Onosato), so he won his debut. Was Onosato weak competition?

You can say Onosato is better now, but don't pretend Takerufuji didn't do something Onosato didn't and now never can do.

>>149844093
Imagine thinking Takerufuji was anything but a fluke when the guy's spirit animal is a syringe full of steroids while Onosato has gone on to greatness in the meantime. You have no arguments here. He -ACK!!!'d in the joi then his body fell apart. Pathetic.

>>149844093
Terunofuji... I understand this is very hard for you, but posting here defending TACKerKEKFUCKIT isn't doing you any good...
Better times will come.

>>149844110
He won. Keep saying he had an easy tournament too, when he beat both Onosato and the Ozeki that beat Onosato. Keep saying Onosato was part of an easy tournament run. You're insulting him way more than I have in this thread.

Last reply from me, Britfag.

>>149844267
Bye, faggot.

Hidenoumi has been in juryo or above since 2014, nearly of that time not being above, so it was kinda of a shame for him to go down to injury after finally making it back to the maegashira ranks. The guy is the embodiment of mid, but he makes up for that with top tier banter whenever the Kise channel features him, which is sadly not often enough.

>>149843914
seethe

Takeru's run wasn't a fluke. We've seen too many low maegashira yusho runs, so calm your tits.
And it was known that he was prone to leg injury. That's why he started from the very bottom, and not some cushy TD ranking. Guy was a half-cripple before going pro.

>>149845371
>Guy was a half-cripple before going pro.
We'll he's up to like 75% now

Kisenosato agrees that Takyasu touched down

>>149847111
First Takayasu steals Dan's honestly earned sanyaku slot and now this.
The sand moving can clearly be seen on the replay, whoever was the video replay shrimpman must've seen it.

Are we in a henka META again? Looks like we are.

>>149845371
Takeru's ankle injury last March was him being a fucking idiot.
>Hmm what if I put the ball of my foot on the edge of the dohyo and force my heel downwards
I WONDER

>>149847111
The reason the gyoji and shinpan didn't see the hand touch down is because none of them were looking. You can see it happen in the fight, it's only after the hand goes down that any of them cast their eyes downwards to look for it.

Ura yusho is kill.

ichi is HIM though takkers is probably grateful for a quick loss to give his arm another day

>>149849034
The shrimp man on video duty can't put their hand up to call mono-reeeee

>>149847111
God I fucking hate people like you.
No where in that link says anthing about Takayasu touching down.
Kisenosato questioned if takayasu can make it 15 days without injury, thats it.

>>149858529
You don't speak Japanese and you're translation software is retarded.
