Chiyotairyu looked mad as hell during his fight with Endoh. I'm gonna interpret that as him being frustrated because he's not the Great Japanese Hope anymore.

Couldn't wait for Kintamayama to finish his video, so I caught the bouts over on araibira's channel. Kisenosato-Goeido did not disappoint. Having a record only behind the yokozunae after 8 days? Very impressive basho for Aoiyama so far. Bit of a scare for Endo there, with his opponent falling on his foot.

Toyonoshima showed a lot of heart there Love watching Kisenosato lose Crossing my fingers for both Yokozuna to be 14-0 on the final day I loving love Shohozan's tachai or whatever the beginning of each match is called. Win or loss, rocket punches to your face all day

Diplomat posted:Is the sumo reference website down for anybody else? Yeah, that site is also the site where some people do a fantasy sumo game of sorts, and people are bitching about it being down on the sumoforums. Didn't read back far enough to see if they had a timeframe for it to be back up. If you're looking for a playlist, the next best thing to do is go to Araibira's channel and start watching them in order. Works well both in the app and on the webiste.

This basho sucks. Minor redemption if we have an exciting match of two 14-0 yokozunae on the final day, or if Goeido doesn't lose another match. I have a feeling Kisenosato will spoil our chance for the first, and Goeido himself at this rate will spoil the second.

I just want Osunaarashi to get his KK. Then this will have been a good basho. It'll be an awesome basho if 14-0 Harumafuji beats 14-0 Hakuho.

Yeah, besides the weird loss to Kitataiki he's only dropped matches against Harumafuji, Kisenosato (which was a spirited loss), and Ikioi (who he's historically had trouble with). I'd like to see him get to 10 wins Tomorrow Hakuho v Kakuryu (21 - 2 head to head) Harumafuji v Kisenosato (27 - 19)

Seats that close to the ring also cost several hundred dollars, even on the quiet days. Sumo pricing is ridiculous.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoy the two wily veterans Aminishiki and Kitataiki. They know every trick in the book, have massive experience and the receding hairlines to prove it.

Whenever I work overnight during the basho (like tonight) I usually just refresh Araibira's video page and watch every new one he puts up, but it would be cool to see all the fanfare that goes with it!
