How long before the JSA nukes the heya channels? I give it six months....
sumos
my judo club just started a sumo session once a week, im going to try it out.
what should i know as a first timer?
>>235281You can do basically any takedown you want (that's not a sacrifice throw obviously). You'll grow more mindful of your in-ring position. Have fun.
>>235281YOU'RE GONNA DIE NIGGA AHHHH
>>2352512 more weeks or until someone does something retarded, as always.
Everyone, send Koga your power!
>>235281Watch your head on the tachi-ai, very easy way to get concussions and broken noses if you're a beginner. They still happen in makuuchi.
>>236184My boy NEEDS to show something this basho
But the way he's been getting rekt by the new kids is making me lose what little hope I had
>>236187Koga gets discouraged too easily. He needs someone really bad to train against. He'd be able to rack up more wins and confidence, and he'd be able to try new things.
>>236188If we look at it optimistically maybe we can say the new recruits just have decent potential
Shunta seems strong at least, I think he'll actually do the best of the three brothers, like Wakatakakage.

I'm glad /xs/ doesn't have moderators
>>236207Not in July. Hoshoryu takes it in a 12-3 playoff. (Onosato is not part of the playoff).
>>236184Koga doesn't want to get stronger at all. If he did he'd just lift weights nonstop in the afternoons and wind up as a Takerufuji-esque cube. Actions speak louder than words.
>>236188Nobody but himself can truly light a fire under his ass. Shingitai, nigga. Koga is lacking in everything: spirit, technique, and body.
>>236210Koga is the hero of a sumo-themed SoL comedy, and has mysteriously and upsettingly found himself in the real world.
>>236207Would be pretty fucking nuts since that'd put him at a 50% yusho rate since hitting Makuuchi 10 basho prior. It took Hakuho 13 basho in Makuuchi to win his first.
is this basedjak material
to be actually on-topic, i've been really enjoying hearing and reading people seethe over this banzuke; takayasu chuddies stay winning
>>236219I mean, Takayasu was dropped into the #8 spot which was M1e last banzuke, so eh? Honestly this is all Wakatakakage's fault.

When will Ochirsaihan enter?
>>236453I can't remember his name but there was a complete beast going toe-to-toe with Makuuchi guys. Pretty sure he was training with Isegahama guys.
>>236453He is supposedly officially registered as a pre-hatsu-dohyou "trainee" and has been for several years. Akinomaki said before that
>Daiseizan lived at the heya for 3 years before he was at the examSo it would seem ridiculous wait times before entry have some precedent.
That said, there is a small chance there may be some technicality bullshit going on about 'the number of foreigners at Isegahama' and the NSK doesn't want to let him debut before they determine whether or not Seihakuhou counts as Isegahama's foreigner. He shouldn't, because that's not how it's worked in the past, but this is a unique case.
Pic related is straight-up a photo of Ochil on the Isegahamabeya website, yet he's not listed under their Member page.
>>236455Teru becoming Oyakata means the *spit* gaijin slot is free now right? I guess a 30+ member beya is always gonna be a bit rough on that slot.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT0r8dqhVSM
>>236456>Teru becoming Oyakata means the *spit* gaijin slot is free now right? That's what everyone was waiting for. Foreigners are supposed to spend 6 months as trainees to learn Japanese culture before being allowed to enter properly, but Ochil's been around for years. It's been about 5 months and 2 weeks since Teru retired, so if they started the "official" trainee timer at the time of Teru's retirement, he wouldn't have been eligible for this upcoming basho but will be for Aki.
>>236455They should just send them all back to mongolia and be done with it
Teru will become Chairman one day and Akebono rolling over in his grave will measure on the richter scale.
>>236460It's a good thing we have a replacement scale that doesn't top out, made for just such occasions
>>236460Kisenosato is Japanese and raised a Japanese yokozuna. Terunofuji will never become chairman unless Kisenosato dies in a tragic accident involving an inexplicable herd of wild horses.
>>236464Shikihide could've raised Onosato to Yokozuna lmao. Sadly Japan cares more about performative bullshit than reality, so Kisenosato will become Chairman because his stable lucked out in recruiting Onosato.
>>236465Everyone cares more about actual performance than what might have been. It doesn't matter if you got a massive head start, a win is a win.
>>236466I don't think you understand what "performative" means.
>>236467No amount of snarky comments can obscure your actual position. You think the Japanese are upsettingly different for acting this way, when in reality it happens everywhere. There's no country or work culture on the planet that works in the way you seem to want them to. Everywhere you go, you will see people being rewarded for doing what's expected of them, for not rocking the boat, and for being the right sort of person. This is right and good and ordinary.
>>236469So you're essentially saying that the JSA Chairman should be picked by complete luck?
>>236470You're really reaching with that one. Kisenosato will be the chairman eventually because he ticks all the right boxes, which is the most important thing. Maybe you're right, and any oyakata could have taken Onosato to the top. But the fact is that they didn't and Kisenosato did. It doesn't matter if that was because of luck or because of superlative coaching talent, the only thing that matters in this case is that Kisenosato now has an accolade that will be very hard, if not impossible, for any potential rivals for the chairman position to top. It certainly means that any foreign elder like Terunofuji is completely out of the running.
>>236471I can't tell if you agree with me or not.
>Tamashoho has won the Juryo yusho three times
Lmao that's such a shit award at that point. At least Takerufuji and Kusano have good reasons for winning multiple. I'm actually gonna check if anyone's topped that.
So Masurao won his 5th Juryo yusho March 1990. He actually won his last two back to back because he only got a +5 promotion with his 12-3 at J7w. No one else has won more than 4.
>>236458Is that 6 months a firm rule? I've never heard about it before. Any more info on that would be appreciated.
>>236488"Rules" in sumo are about as firm as Akiseyama's belly.
>>236490>ole iron gutSo they're firm?
>>236490>AkiseyamaDamn, you just made me sad about his retirement all over again.
Dude had amazing footwork that I don't think most people appreciate. <3
>>236488It's more like they have a set curriculum that ends up taking 6 months.
>>236496And this is outside of Sumo school?
>>236494Makes me wonder about the quirks and minor talents rikishi of the past had. I didn't watch them fight and it's not people the sort of thing people typically record. Appreciate the lads while you can.
>>236497This is concurrent with sumo school.
>>236500So foreigners do Sumo school before Maezumo? That seems strange.
>>236504A foreigner is a bigger investment than a random kid from a local high school.
>>236505Well sure, I just hadn't heard about this alternate timeline until now. I always thought it was: entrance exam, then sumo school for the first six months starting in the month of your maezumo basho. Makes sense though.
>>236504>>236506Sumo school -> exam -> maezumo, for everyone. Foreigners have extra curriculum as part of sumo school that makes it take longer for them, and an extra two months after the exam before maezumo to ensure they're acclimated whereas domestic Japanese can do maezumo immediately after their exam.
>>236509But that can't be right. The newer Futagoyama recruits were talking about going to sumo school well after they were already on the banzuke.
>>236510held back for being bad
>>236510Okay you're right I got things mixed up.
Entrance exam -> maezumo. Domestic can do maezumo immediately after passing the exam, while foreigners have to wait a tournament.
After passing maezumo is sumo school. Six months for domestic, a year for foreigners, but this is while being active lower division wrestlers.
>>236512Thank you. Out of curiosity, where did you hear about this?
>>236511Kikuchi would never!

New Chris video today
the forbidden kimarite........
I'm so fucking depressed right now so I'm glad sumo is starting next week. Thank you for reading my blog
The new Gunning article mentions that Onosato is the first yokozuna to debut as yokozuna-ozeki since Chiyonofuji
>>236531>yokozuna-ozekiWhat does that mean though
>>236533There must be two ozeki on the banzuke - or at least two men filling the spots for O1W and O1E. If there is only one man ranked at ozeki, the yokozuna (or the lowest-ranked yokozuna, in this case the most recent promotee) is designated as a yokozuna-ozeki to balance the banzuke. It doesn't have any effect on pay or privileges. In theory, if Kotozakura loses his ozeki rank and nobody replaces him, both yokozuna would be designated as yokozuna-ozeki. The reason it's done this way as opposed to a sekiwake being temporarily deputised as a sekiwake-ozeki is that a yokozuna is really just an ozeki with special extra privileges. Ozeki is by far the older rank, historically speaking, and the concept of a yokozuna is much more recent than most people think, which is why Onosato is only the 75th.
>>236533Whenever there's fewer than two ozeki on the banzuke, the lowest yokozuna is designated "yokozuna-ozeki" because there must always be two ozeki. It's just a formality so they don't have to promote an undeserving sekiwake.
>>236533it isn't significant.
also lmao at the fag who wrote a wall of text about something so meaningless.
>>236536>wall of textphoneposter detected

Sounds like Hoshoryu is out for blood at all points in time. Wonder if he's becoming more like Uncle.

>>236559Daieisho's recent record outside of the 3 basho range is so stellar that they would likely give it to him with less than 33, he has one MK since the start of 2023 and a bunch of double digit finishes

>>236593And that slip was such an underwhelming finish after two fucking weeks of build up
Like the worst ending possible, just lame as fuck.
>>236594It was the appropriate shameful ending for someone who has weak legs and bad footwork. The sport is conducted on a surface with terrible traction and the traditional training methods are all focused on building lower body strength. Horseryu's ">muh throws" gimmick is straight out of the Mong bokh playbook.
Fellow Onosato fans, what's your favorite thing about his fighting style? For me personally it's when he walks forward and wins. Very exciting stuff.
>>236596I would have answered seriously if you werent a shit-eating faggot. Too bad huh.
>>236596>Does his own brand of sumo>His body moves how he wants it to>Takes it one day at a timeBut for me? It's the part where he walks forwards and wins.
>>236595A throw is inherently destabilising for you and your opponent, and as such should be an option of last resort. If you're not already unstable, like being up against the tawara, why risk your position? It goes against the fundamentals of sumo. Hoshoryu's ascent to the highest rank shows that he's exceptionally good at what he's doing, because his entire fighting style is a textbook example of what not to do.

>>234480 (OP)do you have to be a fatass to do sumo?
I thought this shit was just a meme
>>236687You have to be able to beat a fatass, at the very least. The easiest way to do that is to be just as big and heavy as he is.
>>236687No, but form follows function. Is it harder to throw 20kg or 50kg? It's that simple. And as the great Yokozuna Terunofuji said- nobody has ever built 200kg of muscle before.
Some guys still stay pretty lean though, such as Asakoryu, picrel.
>>236690You don't need to be big to beat a fatass, just make him lose his balance.
A solid kick to one of the legs to make them trip will do the job, just don't let em grapple you.
>>236691I guess that's pretty "lean" for sumo lol
>>236692Kicking means taking your foot off the floor. It's much riskier in a sumo context than simply being bigger than the other guy is, and able to shove him out.
>>236693Yes, for sumo. If you want real lean you have to go way down into the third division or lower. Ironically that is also where the mega bloatlords like Dewanojo are.
>>236694True. If the fatass doesn't charge, I don't see how I could use his weight against him.
>>236696Do keep in mind that the ring is 4.5m across, and he starts near the middle. Even if he does charge, your options are limited. If you don't get him down or out in the first two or three seconds, he's going to lay hands on you.

>>236687Takanoyama was thin as a rail by sumo standards and managed to make it to lower maegashira
>>236697Yep, it'd be a 1 shot kind of thing. I'd go for trying to defect the grapple, grab the arm, hit the ribs with theother, hit the neck, then jump for a choke hold if I can't make him trip.
Huge if and I'd have to be super fast, and it's no guarantee that hitting the ribs will do shit, cause they're so fat they probably barely feel it, kek.
How's the kick in the balls situation? I'm guessing not legal lmao
>>236698that is pretty thin, did he win shit?
>>236700Simply making it to the salaried ranks means he was one of the top 10% of all sumo wrestlers, but he was only there for three years before dropping down and retiring, and never won anything.
>>236699Can't kick above the shin, I think. No closed fist strikes either. Any jumping is an extreme liability. They're fat because it's the optimal shape to be under the current ruleset, being small and fast is hard mode, and puts you at serious risk of accidental injury.
>>236702pretty impressive still
sumo is a fatass biased sport
so this... is japan's greatest athletes....
>>236703>Can't kick above the shinbruh, then yea 100% you have to be a barely breathing blob of meat to triumph in this shit
Begs the question, what's so interesting about this sport? Seems pretty boring to watch to me, never mind doing it. It's not even healthy to be that fat, so not even that bright side
>>236706>Begs the question, what's so interesting about this sport?Two guys try to outpower each other without bullshit, it's that simple. No rounds, no dumb rules, no stupid cages or rings, no boring crap where one guy holds the other guy on the ground for an hour while nothing happens, you just get two guys on top of the clay and they try to beat each other without any drama.
>>236706kicking above the shin would be a losing move every time regardless
>>236706The average top division man is more accurately comparable to a lineman in American football, or a rugby player. The fat is an extra layer over the top of a huge and muscular body. They're a lot faster than you'd expect and the competent ones are surprisingly athletic and flexible.
>>236711Seeing that match makes me wanna think I could trip one of them with some agility and technique, but it'd pretty much have to be a 1 shot attempt.
Either of those fucks pushes me full force and I'm flying off that ring, no joke.
>>236713Trips do get used sometimes. It's more common for the faster man to just sidestep the initial charge, sometimes to hilarious effect. Like you said, though, you only get one chance to do that, because doing so puts you in such a vulnerable position.
>>236706>Begs the question, what's so interesting about this sport?Autism
>>236714That's what I thought. I'd also try to dance around the dude to tire him. No way a fatass has more stamina than I do, no matter how "athletic" he is.
>>236716You run out of room very quickly in a sumo ring, especially if your opponent is 6'4 and 400 pounds. It's not impossible, but there's a reason that you simply don't see small, agile men dominating the sport, even in a country where most men are on the smaller side. A sumo wrestler is a perfect example of minmaxing - they typically perform terribly in MMA and other rulesets, but they're perfectly designed for success under sumo's rules.

>>236716There's just not enough room in the ring to pull that off, especially since you have to start charging towards each other.
>>236717>>236718Fair. In a real life situation I'd go for the good old kick in the balls and choking him unconscious while he's in pain.
Better yet just run the fuck away. The fatass fears the running track more than fasting, kek.
>>236719>In a real life situationIn a real life situation you're not going to be fighting a sumo wrestler, "real life situations" are the biggest meme in combat sports
>>236719Running away is always the best thing to do. I'm not fighting anyone unless I'm getting paid handsomely.
>>236719In a real life situation the sumo wrestler would beat you over the head with a beer bottle, and then apologize for his lack of hinkaku.
>>236721even then, health is more important than money
realistically, I'd first try to run, if I obviously can't run I'd fight, and if they pull out a knife I'd go for the gun.
>>236720>"real life situations" are the biggest meme in combat sportsI don't disagree, but if you do combat sports you're still more fit than a normal person to handle an aggression.
Personally, I mostly focus on grappling and disarming. Seems the most useful irl

>>236671>NHK PartyGoddamn, and I thought the BBC were biased.
Looking at people's sumo stables I can't believe how many people believe Aonishiki and Hakuoho will thrive in the joi. They both have garbage records against them thus far, and after Takerufuji got chewed out you'd think more people would be going for old reliables like Abi, WMH, or even Oho.
>>236733>chicken legs jobbed, therefore we will never have successful joi newcomers ever again
>>236700no, he put up double digit losses
>>236702>HE WAS JUST HAPPY TO BE THERE!!!!he was a loser
>>236734My brother in Christ, Hakuoho has complete 4 basho in Makuuchi since his return, and is yet to beat a SINGLE Sanyaku member. As in, the guy has literally zero wins against anyone in the Sanyaku. Aonishiki's only Sanyaku win was against Oho back in March when he was Sekiwake for a day. There's absolutely zero reason to think both rikishi will do anything besides get chewed up and spat out. Abi is gonna break Aonishiki's fucking neck.
>>236698>Takanoyama was thin as a rail by sumo standards and managed to make it to lower maegashiraNot really. His career peaked when 15 sekitori above him were suddenly expelled for match-fixing. He had three kachikoshi total as a sekitori, the last of which was less than a year after the scandal hit.
>>236703>Can't kick above the shinThe rule is that you can't kick the torso or the arms. You can kick someone in the head if you like.
>>236734We will definitely have successful joi newcomers in the future. It isn't sensible, however, to bet on newcomers, especially those with poor records against high-rankers.
>>236733your list of 'old reliables' all put up losing records in may, they're not any better than the taker of fuji
>>236740I can see the point, but I wouldn't be surprised if one of them goes 8-7 anyway despite getting on the sanyaku ass clapping tour early
>>236741That's weird, because I could've sworn the three I named were the best joi finishers in March. Strange!

according to this article hosh got injured in training and had to have a toe amputated.
is this real or did they just make it up as an excuse to cut short his poorly conceived tenure as yokozuna?
>>236745The training session was cut short, not the toe. He beat Kusano three times and then dipped out before fighting Kirishima.
>>236745Is that the poorly translated R*ddit post talking about Kirishima hurting his toe?
>>236738So he outlasted those 15 sekitori simply by having more hinkaku? That's equivalent to a zensho in my book.
>>236735fag
>>236745this is why you should ask what happened instead of relying on your shitty machine translations
>>2367373-0 vs Oshoma, 2-0 vs Takayasu.
>>236751*3-2 vs oshoma, derp
>>236749>by having more hinkakuThere's no way of knowing for sure who was and who wasn't match-fixing at the time. The people who were expelled were just the ones whose culpability was easily demonstrated, since they had all been texting a central broker whose phone records were then seized.
>>236753>Implying it's reasonable to treat everyone as guilty without evidence. Eastern Europe has entered the chat.
>>236752Neither of those are Sanyaku material. What's his record against Abi and WMH?
>>236757And yet they are listed as sanyaku on the banzuke. Funny that.
>>236754I didn't say anything like that. I'm saying that, with half of juryo having been proven to have been cheating, it is not unreasonable to speculate that others cheated but were not caught. Not necessarily many, not necessary few either - how do you know? That's the real tragedy of match fixing happening at all.
My opinion on Takanoyama is that he went Ms2e 5-2 -> J5w, so there's no reason to take most of the wildly fluctuating 2011 banzuke rankings as indications of skill.
>>236758Holy fuck then lets all give some credit to Naya who beat the 74th Yokozuna Hoshoryu in March 2018 back when Hoshoryu was a fucking nobody.
>>236758Not every sanyakur can be a chad like Daieisho and hang out at sekiwake for years on end, most of them can't even manage to put up a 6-9 at komusubi and remain in the named ranks on the subsequent banzuke. For the majority of those appearing in sanyaku its an extremely temporary event.
>>236761Of the guys I originally mentioned (Abi, WMH, Oho), the only guy who could be called temporary is Oho. Abi and WMH have spent a good portion of the last couple years in the Sanyaku. Oshoma and Takayasu aren't Sanyaku material and Hakuoho's winrates against them are meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
>>236760>>236761The point made previously was that Hakuhoho was yet to beat a single sanyaku member. My point is that he clearly has a pretty good shot of beating at least one if not two this basho.
>There's absolutely zero reason to think both rikishi will do anything besides get chewed up and spat out.I'm not going to get sucked into some bullshit about komosubi being a meme rank. I merely disagree with that nonsense post.
>>236762Takayasu is a former Ozeki who has been within one win of the cup in the past year. What in the fuck is that matter with you?
>>236759>My opinion on Takanoyama is that he went Ms2e 5-2 -> J5w, so there's no reason to take most of the wildly fluctuating 2011 banzuke rankings as indications of skill.So, you think poorly of the rikishi, because he was overpromoted? You know Ms2 almost always goes to Juryo on a 5-2, right? It's not that he was promoted unfairly, he was just promoted higher than normal. He did the thing.
>>236765And Hakuho is a former Yokozuna who's won 45 cups. Do you think he'll win next basho?
>>236768Are you retarded?

>>236766>Ms2 almost always goes to Juryo on a 5-2, rightNo shit, but he is the only M2 to ever be promoted even as high as J6 in the 15-day era, irrespective of score.
>you think poorly of the rikishiYou absolutely have to consider his accomplishments in the context of the massive banzuke vacuum that had just opened up. It's ridiculous to pretend that it didn't happen or to claim that he, or anyone in a comparable situation, "earned" their rank by being morally superior. Look at this image and tell me if you notice anything unusual.
>>236770>Look at this image and tell me if you notice anything unusual.Yes, you are typing in every rank instead of using ranges.
>>236770So he earned his sekitori status by being a skilled rikishi AND he earned a high rank by being morally superior. I don't see how you could see any of that as a black mark on Takanoyama.
>>236772This entire conversation started around the point of whether or not rikishi need to be fat to move up the ranks. The answer is yes, and Takanoyama is not a counterexample because he had a once-in-a-century lucky break.
>>236687>>236698>do you have to be a fatass to do sumo?>Takanoyama was thin as a rail by sumo standards and managed to make it to lower maegashira
>>236774>Takanoyama is not a counterexample because he had a once-in-a-century lucky break.Which I pointed out is wrong because 5-2 at Ms2 is NOT a lucky break. Sure, he had help to make it to the top division, but making salary is a huge fucking deal in ozumo and you know it.
Tamashoho's not that big.
>>236776>Sure, he had help to make it to the top divisionWhich is what we were discussing. Clearly he made sekitori on his own, but not makuuchi.
>>236778Then you don't need to be big to do sumo.
>>236777NSK database has him 34 kg heavier than Takanoyama.
>>236780I don't think anyone would describe him as a "fatass" though.
>>236779https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Weu5JiX0FM
You know what, sure, you're completely right.
>>236770For future reference, you can list ranks as a range instead of having to list every rank separately. For example, J1-J8 for your query. This works across division too, so for example M12-J8.
>>236778He reached makuuchi three separate times. You can maybe say he took advantage of a depleted juryo but he still put up a 10-5. After that he put up a 9-6 at J3w to get back into makuuchi a second time, and 11-4 at J4e for the third time. It's pretty clear he would've ended up in makuuchi at least once regardless of whether the scandal happened.
>>236789I think his argument was that he would have bounced out before that. Either way is speculation. We've no way of knowing what would have happened had it gone differently. What is known is that he appeared on the top row of the banzuke .
Chiyonofuji is the best example of an actually successful and somewhat lean rikishi

>>236851Babutame was out too so they were probably doing some event or something
>>236852Remember when people thought he was going to make yokozuna
>>236854He isn't even back of the line because he forced it due to being an Ozeki. His spot at the back of the line is Onosato's sloppy seconds.
>>236854He got pretty close. The guy is still capable of winning yushos, getting back to Ozeki i don't know.
>>236846Who in the hell is that random fuck who was criticising Onosato's foot sliding? There are only 74 rikishi with the right to criticise him and most of them are dead. Some probably never existed.
Takakeisho is going the Takanohana's way of losing weight. The guy I thought would die in the dohyo may outlive his contemporaries, lmao.

Aonishiki's stablemaster is the luckiest man in the world to have someone actually talented land on his doorstep out of the blue like that.
>Hey bro you want a free sekitori?
>Okay lmao
>>236885If we're talking about lucky stablemasters, there's nobody in the conversation aside from Terunofuji - almost as soon as he gets elder stock, he's handed the largest stable in all of sumo with several experienced sekitori ready to go.
>>236890Nothing lucky, he was justly recognized for his superior hinkaku, legacy as a dai-yokozuna, and selfless dedication to training his fellow sekitori, including providing mentorship to both Hoshoryu and Onosato.
>>236890Who got luckier, Teru scooping up Isegahama's sekitori, or Kisenosato scooping up Onosato?
>>236892Terunofuji. The better Onosato does, the more dramatic the comparison to his master is.
>>236885>have someone actually talented land on his doorstep out of the blueDan is good specifically because he was lucky enough to land in Aminishiki's stable, Aminisihki is this century's Mainoumi, its not any lucky accident that he is capable of recognizing and nurturing potential.
>>236893Wrong! Japanese yokozuna mentoring the next big Japanese yokozuna is going to go way further in the JSA than Teru presiding over crash test dummies like Takeru, Hakuoho, and Atami who all can't break sanyaku.
>>236895Kusano will reach sanyaku easy
>>236895Yeah, but it comes at a cost. Kisenosato's own career is already a footnote for Onosato's, and that's just going to intensify. Consider Hakuho - how many yushos did his master win? What was his master's peak rank? Hell, we're a few years out now, some of you probably don't remember Hakuho's masters name.

What's the deal with all the best wrestlers having extremely wide tooth spacing?
>>236924The secret to success is flossing with shoelaces.
>>236923hard to believe that both of them are now dead
>>236924Wide tooth spacing happens when your jaw grows out of proportion to your teeth. Jaws are strongly affected by growth hormone, so if someone has a huge and powerful jaw he most likely also has a massive chest, large hands, and a heavy frame - all of which are helpful qualities for a rikishi.

Fresh Futa slop two days in a row!
Chris is shitting all over Onosato's yokozuna ring entering, meanwhile the Japanese fans love it, but apparently Chris thinks he knows better than them. And Chris loves Hosh's entrance, but the Japs think its meh.
Why are reddit tier twats like Chris all so predictably and similarly full of themselves? Do they all share a particular personality disorder or something?
>I know more about your culture than you do and my opinions about it are more worthy than yours are because I'm an unsophisticated foreigner who can barely even speak the language
Do you think Chris goes and asks the Japs what to think when it comes time for him to form an opinion about matters of English culture?
I like Onosatos dohyo iri. Its unique and cool.
And Ill fight any one of you pussies that says different
>>236986Chris (and me, and you) is every bit as entitled to have an opinion on sumo or any other aspect of Japanese culture as any man in Japan.
>>236986You are the clueless redditor, idiot
The fans like him because he's Onosato, it's the Japanese reporters that are criticizing him
>>236986>Why are reddit tier twats like me all so predictably and similarly full of ourselves? Do we all share a particular personality disorder or something?fixed
>>236986Onosato's dohyo-iri IS complete garbage. It genuinely looks like he's putting no effort into it and just phoning it in. Can't believe Kisenosato just lets him do that. He's a university graduate LARPing as a rikishi and it shows. The rope is more than an "I won a lot" badge to Hoshoryu, and it's evident in the effort he puts into his training and dohyo-iri.
>>236997When you've earned your rope, you can show him how it's done.
>>236998What a stupid fucking comment.
>>236999It really was, wasn't it? Imagine some fat fuck on 4chan thinking he has any right to say a yokozuna is "LARPing as a rikishi".
>>237000His dohyo-iri is terrible. That's all. It looks like he's putting zero effort in and just doesn't care.
>>237001Onosato and his master both think his dohyo-iri is satisfactory. What makes you think that you're more qualified than Kisenosato to judge it?
>>237002>I know what Kisenosato thinksPut the crack pipe down, Chris.
>yokozuna does his style of dohyo-iri and takes it one day at a time
>this is bad
Fucking tourists
>>237002Onosato himself said he still has a lot to learn. Even Chris mentions this on his video. Did you even watch it? Are you here just to shit up the thread?
we can all agree that onosato's dohyo-iri is the best if you actually know your sumo onions
the bigger problem is that the mongol has been allowed to apron-mog our guy
>>237006>Onosato himself said he still has a lot to learnWhich part of Chris' video was it where Onosato said "My dohyo-iri sucks because I'm phoning it in"?
>>237004>Yokozuna does his style of fist pumping and high fiving the crowd>This is bad
>>237007>Japanese yokozuna>standing proudly as his kesho mawashi displays traditional symbols of grace and dignity>Mongol "yokozuna">slouching lazily as his kesho mawashi displays ugly angry mongol men destroying everything
>>237008Take Onosato's cock out of your mouth for a second and I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out
>>237010A boy only truly becomes a man when he puts aside notions of "cool" and "badass" and begins to appreciate the simple and the peaceful.
I just wish Onosato would bend his arms while clapping instead of doing big dumb goofy windmills.
>>237011If you think being humble is an admission of incompetence and failure, you've failed to understand not just the expectations placed on a yokozuna, but one of the core foundations of Japanese culture as a whole.
>>237007>Onosato's sword bearer: an ex-ozekisovl & dignity
>Horseshit's sword bearer: a manlet gimmick wrestler disgraceful and offensive

>>237017>50% of the posters on 4chan are of below average intelligenceThis is a really ironic thing to say considering you're not accounting for selection bias as truly stupid people probably don't hang around forums all day shitposting about wanting to eat Koga's chanko.

ONE WEEK
Until the basho
We are almost there
Dont let the boredom drive us into being assholes again
>>237019You're such an optimist. Look through this thread and see how many of the posts are single lines of text riddled with insults. Sure, the truly stupid people of the world aren't on obscure imageboards talking about weird styles of grappling. But there are plenty of people on this website, in this thread, that show all the hallmarks of being stupid, ignorant, and unwilling to learn.
Onosato made his sanyaku debut a year ago and has subsequently won 4 championships, he is absolutely dominant as a yokozuna should be. Any given basho Onosato is more likely to win the cup than the entire rest of the field put together.
Hosh made his sanyaku debut over 3 years ago and has subsequently won only twice, he is long odds to yusho even as a yokozuna.
So which one of those two do you think would have the confidence to half ass the ceremonial stuff because his performance as a wrestler justifies his yokozuna title and which one do you think would be driven to be a desperate tryhard and feel the need to do the entry perfectly in order to avoid further criticism of his mediocre results in competition?
>>237022Posting insults doesn't make someone stupid, faggot.
>>237023Onosato's Makuuchi debut was January last year. He's complete 9 basho and won 4, which to me isn't quite:
>Any given basho Onosato is more likely to win the cup than the entire rest of the field put togetherAnd saying that Hoshoryu is long odds to yusho is crazy. So far this year he's gone 12-3 any time he wasn't injured, and 12-3 has been the winning score in 2/3 basho so far this year. Don't forget that Hoshoryu and Onosato are both in their mid 20s, they aren't even at their physical peak yet. You just got to watch Hoshoryu be mediocre for longer because he's been in grand sumo for longer.
Stop riding Onosato's dick.
>>237025Constantly, pointlessly, and vulgarly insulting people is most definitely a sign of stupidity.
>>237026It can also be a sign that someone else deserves insulting.
Over their last 3 complete basho, Hoshoryu's winrate is actually higher than Onosato's.
>>237027Unwarranted arrogance and the idea that you're entitled to mete out any punishments that you see fit upon the deserving is also a sign of colossal stupidity and all-around unpleasantness.
>>237030This coming from someone who thinks 4chan users are representative of the wider population.
>>237031Putting words I didn't say into my mouth isn't helping your case.
>>237032>50% of the posters on 4chan are of below average intelligenceI know the quote from that George Carlin clip when I hear it paraphrased, faggot. You must be super smart.

Onosato: Makkuchi debut at M15w, two consecutive 11-4s (one of which was a fusen), 3rd 'sho ranked in sanyaku
Dan: Makkuchi debut at M15e (a higher rank), two consecutive 11-4s (all legit wins, no fusens) , 3rd 'sho ranked M1e
Is there any way to explain this other than blatant anti-White racism?
>>237045Yes, silly nicknames are a prime example. Horseshitryu and the variations are as annoying as "Drumpf".
>>237050Banzuke fuckery explains an awful lot of things. Takayasu not being spat into Maegashira is the only thing of note, but that can be explained by how WTK increasing the Sanyaku to 8 rikishi puts the K1w spot at the place M1e used to be.
>>237036you're ignoring the possibility in this case that you're one of the 50% of people who have below average intelligence and that your low intelligence causes you to make and believe erroneous presumptions and ideas.
>>237050White people dropped nukes on them, the Japanese are allowed to be racist.
>>237060On a scale of 1 to McDonalds, how American are you?

>>237061America dropped nukes. America has lots of non-whites who may well have been involved. Not only that but what has a Ukrainian got to do with Japan being nuked? And on top of that, the nukes were generally considered a good idea by all since a ground invasion by America would've most likely cost far more lives and far more harm.
>>237064Waito piggu arr rook same
>>237064Not that I agree with that anon but historically it actually is relevant since Ukraine was then part of the USSR and America dropped the nukes specifically to secure a Japanese surrender without having to invade the Japanese mainland...an invasion in which the Soviet Union would likely have seized the northern half of Japan.
>>237067Hokkaido is the best part of Japan so the nukes were worth it to keep it from turning into North Korea.
>>237067If there had been a North Japan and a South Japan, we would have twice as many bashos in a year. Therefore all sumo fans should disapprove of America's bombing.
>>237067>Hmmm America dropped two nukes on us 80 years ago>I know how to get back at them, lets only demote Takayasu to K1w so Aonishiki only gets a small overpromotion instead of a big overpromotion!Take your meds.

>>237075I feel like more guys would enjoy wrestling if they just did it. It's like MMA minus the constant injuries.
>>237074Making a distinction between natives and foreigners is explicitly racist. That's not a leftist talking point, it's the foundation of racism itself.

>>237097Are shiko actually a good exercise or is it some traditionalist bullshit they put on for the cameras?
>>237098I'd be surprised if you can do twenty shiko with good form. I'd be even more surprised if you didn't ache like a motherfucker the next day after doing so. It looks goofy, but it's a brutal leg workout and all the best rikishi swear by it.
>>237099I'd be surprised if I couldn't. I don't consider myself strong but I have a 140kg deadlift and work a pretty active job. It's too late at night for it now but tomorrow I'll give it a go.
>>237098They are really good exercises. More importantly they were exercises developed specifically for sumo, which means improvement without significant risk of injury. Traditional sumo exercises have the benefit of sumo being their full-time existence, which means they can afford to have gradual incremental improvements through repetition of low-impact exercise, instead of risking injury through high-impact weight training.
>>237100Sure, you're not a weakling, but it's a completely different movement to standard weightlifting, and I hope it's different to anything you do at your job. It's surprisingly difficult - too difficult for some of the lazier rikishi in sloppa videos - just to get the form correct, because it's not as intuitive as it looks. It's less a matter of raw strength and more of mindful control over your movements, although strength and endurance are mandatory for doing a good amount. Twenty should be reasonably taxing for an untrained man, especially if he's heavy. The rikishi will often do more than a hundred as part of their morning training session.
>>237097I remember the good old days when Hiro was still making content other than a bimonthly couple of clip collections of matches everyone already watched twice at least.
>>237090wanting to keep outsiders out of your country isn't racist.
america is already the most racially diverse nation in the entire history of humanity. there isn't a single race on the planet that isn't represented there.
>>237104Treating someone differently because of their nationality and ethnicity is the definition of racism.
>>237105And yet you can't come up with a single reason as to why gatekeeping your country is a bad thing. Curious!
>>237106Bring those goalposts back! I haven't argued for or against gatekeeping one's country, or for or against racism in general. I just pointed out that treating outsiders differently to your own kind is racist. It's the single most relevant and foundational part of racism, the "us" and "them" division.
>>237108You've been arguing in bad faith this entire time. Fuck off somewhere else, faggot.
>>237109You can't even grasp my argument, let alone critique it. At least make an effort to learn what racism actually is before going to bat for your side.
>>237111You've been arguing in bad faith this entire time. Fuck off somewhere else, faggot.
>>237112I will not, however many times you repeat yourself. I'll be in every /sumo/ thread you ever visit, and I'll mock you when you say something stupid.
>>237105most use of the word 'nationality' is divorced from the original meaning of a nation and so has nothing to do with racism
>>237105>Treating someone differently because of their nationality and ethnicity is the definition of racism.Nice of you to admit that gibes for foreigners is racist, affirmative action is racist, H1b & green cards are racist.

>>237123Personally, I don't think they have any need for an age limit when they only have 600 wrestlers in a country of 120 million. However, the existence of the rule means that they must have had to reject men before, and it's a slap in the face to all of them if a foreigner with a sob story has an exception made for him. They'd have to change the rule entirely to retain their dignity, in my opinion.

>>237132Well he was supposed to be the next Hakuho so that should tell you something
>>237128Doing pushup and situps regularly will also make you immune to lower back pain.
>>237124>I don't think they have any need for an age limit ... However, the existence of the rule means that they must have had to reject men beforeNo, they just got embarrassed when the news razzed them back in the 90s when Tomonohana, who already had a wife and kids, joined sumo at age 27. That's the entire reason the age limit rule exists: someone got mad 30 years ago.

>>237132Probably would've ended up more like Goeido where he ends up doing the bare minimum to keep rank once the injuries pile up, then puts up a random zensho out of nowhere before going back to the bare minimum. The fact that Asanoyama couldn't stay healthy when he had what was basically a year long break does not suggest he would've had a strong ozeki career.

>>237297What's more depressing, having tried to make and fail or spending your entire life thinking "if only I'd tried to be a pro athlete, id be so much happier right now if I'd have done that"
>>237299Yeah, the old guy I saw was a delivery driver, hoisting crates of beer and shit on his ancient, fucked knees.
>>237301Those jobs that involve being on you feet a lot of the day and lifting things are better than office jobs even if they pay less. Getting exercise on the job keeps you in good shape, office cucks get off work and go to the gym or they end up in terrible shape with zero muscle. I was never in better condition than after I worked as a mover for 6 months. Women were all over me back then too.
>>237296>this guy has to live a normal wagie life, isn't that so horribly soul crushing and depressing??Yes. Yes it is.
>>237285>ancient video Goddamn you are really scraping the barrel
Why don't you just hit rock bottom already and just type "Dan" over and over again and post that
fuck's sakes
>>237302Those jobs are the last thing you want to be doing after a long sumo career. When you were a mover you were likely ten or fifteen years younger than these retired guys, and you didn't have twenty years worth of chronic injuries and wrecked joints. Never mind keeping fit, they need to be careful just to ensure they aren't totally crippled by 50.
>>237304>isn't that so horribly soul crushing and depressing?Considering that you spent 2/3 of your life devoted to the way of sumo, surrounded by like-minded people doing simple everyday tasks and then suddenly you are alone in the world forced to serve capitalist overlords who don't give 2 fucks about you and if you refuse you starve to death? Yes, yes it is.
>>237307Low-skilled jobs are depressing for everyone. This is why any sane society puts so much emphasis on education and learning useful skills as a youth.
>>237307I understand your point and I don't really disagree but it's not an issue that's unique or even really about sumo at it's core. At least they got to live the life for a time. That's more than many get.

people are so desperate for a reply these days.
Who will capitalize by picking up double kinboshi in the first tournament in years with that possibility available?
Abi is the clear choice since he has an established record of a better than 40% win rate against both 'zunas and he will face them both unless Hosh pulls out due to his toe injury, but that might just be my confirmation bias talking since Abi is my favorite.
Oho seems like he might be a possibility for double gold too if the good version of Oho shows up to this basho. I could also seem Oho pulling off a 4-11 with two kinboshi, he is just that kind of guy. Plus he is 6-4 career against Hosh & has won twice against Onosato this year.
>>237446It will be a complete wildcard nobody sane predicts
>>237446I dont see Oho beating Onosato
His style matches up better with Hosh
I would also bet on Abi for a double kinboshi

>>237452Endo and Myogiryu both did Jan 2020, when we were at peak levels of HakKak breaking. Hokutofuji is also credited with a win against both, but Kakuryu was fusen so it doesn't count as a kinboshi.

Last prime slop before the basho I think. After this we starve
>>237504You just know he's been retardedly overdoing it in practice instead of saving some in the tank and that something tearing or breaking was inevitable
>>237514Sometimes these things just happen, especially once you hit your thirties. Daieisho isn't known for being injury-prone, and this is ruining his streak of consecutive appearances.
>>237504The person being pushed still has to resist. Look at the rear leg, the calf is put under a lot of tension.
>>236455Would a stable consider sending an international prospect to another stable in the ichimon?
If Daiesho doesn't get any wins, he's likely to drop all the way to m10 or m11. He's pretty old too, he might not recover fully ever. I'd hate to lose the guy, he's been a great fixture near the top of the banzuke.
>>237540Time wounds all heels. If he DOES get any wins, he might sideline himself for the rest of the year with an exacerbated injury. If he deserves to be at the top of the banzuke, taking a tournament off won't matter and he'll get back up there when he's healthy.
>>237540Lmao no, Daieisho is already favoured by Hakkaku, don't be surprised if he's kept at M5e so he stays in the joi for September.

All the people who talk about Abi being a one dimensional flowcharter probably don't even watch the matches, he is one of if not the most cerebral and wily competitors in the sport.

Also he's going 10+ wins this basho. Not only is Aonishiki free but Daieisho is out of the picture.

>>237588As things stand, there are no Miyagino rikishi. Isegahama-beya is, however, huge and unwieldy, and it's reasonable to suppose that if Magaki wanted to branch out, or someone like Takarafuji retired, some of the wrestlers would follow along. I don't think Isegahama will stay in its current configuration in the long term, but I'd guess a year at least before any changes.

>>237589It made me laugh when I saw people comment that Isegahama was jealous of Hakuho when the merger happened when in fact Isegahama ran circles around every oyakata combined in terms of raw sekitori production capability.

lmao
Kisenosato ran circles around Miyagino in that aspect.
>>237620I was dropping an epic meme on you, but for reals, the only thing K*senosato ever achieved as an Oyakata was recruiting Onosato because the JSA kept having wet dreams about the last Japanese Yokozuna raising the next great Japanese Yokozuna. All he ever had to do was tard-wrangle a fatso. Just look at the rest of Nishonoseki; it's an abysmal failure with only Shirokuma coming close to Makuuchi and even then he just can't do it.
K*senosato has ONE worthwhile recruit who was handed to him on a silver platter. Guys like Asahifuji, Kise, and fuck it, even Ajigawa have done way better jobs than him. They actually had to DO a job.

>>237628No. His Majesty, First of his Name, Better-than-the-Mongol-Thugs, our own great Japanese Dai-Yokozuna, Kisenosato (PBUH).
>>237629K*senosato clearly didn't run rings around Hakuho as an Oyakata since Hakuho had multiple Makuuchi sekitori while K*senosato had the future Shirokuma (:O!!!) until Onosato was given to him for free.
