After a decade of Shodai-ing, he suddenly rattles off 2 yushos in a row, forces the Yokozuna promotion and retires halfway through the debut tournament at 0-7.

shodai's here to redistribute the wins to the masses from the comfort of the ozeki position, he's the world's only ethical upper class man

You can tell a lot about people by their face and looks, their body movement, ticks, and nervous energies, sumo wrestlers obviously being no exception. Like, you can tell Tobizaru would be a complete crack-up to be around just because of how he fights, his facial expressions, etc. Takayasu has giga-Dad energy. Ura would make a great nanny. Shodai? Huge "pissbitch teenager who just wants to use tiktok alone in his room" vibes.

I still feel like if the Christmas tree banzuke ends up being a thing, it might be worth merging the Sekiwakes with the Ozeki this time around, and having Komisubi stand on its own. I know there's precedent for just letting Ozeki picks go through with the field this low, but dammit, I like variety in picks.

Banzuke's up! https://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoBanzuke/index/ Wakatakakage, Hoshoryu, and Mitakeumi at Sekiwake (in that order) Tamawashi, Kiribayama, Tobizaru, and Daieisho at Komusubi (in that order)

It's Christmas in October. Terutsuyoshi managed to stay in the top rank, but at the veeeery bottom. The people's yokozuna, Tokushoryu, is at Juryo 12, Enho at Juryo 11. Chiyomaru at J1, if he pulls out a decent KK he might get back up top in January? Bentai fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Oct 30, 2022 |

I wonder how long Tokushoryu will keep going. I’d expect at his age that he’s done as soon as he would fall out of juryo.

Nativity In Black posted:I'm mildly surprised that dude went 6-9 at M15 and only dropped to M16. JSA must appreciate the salt throws. I think he really just lucked out that there weren't a ton of promising promotion candidates in juryo. The three promotions they did make were a pair of 9-6's and an 8-7 from J3E. If they'd dropped him they'd have been having to promote 8-7 from J3W.

captainblastum posted:How would sumo scorigami work? You'd have to somehow count rank/score combinations for entire blocks of specific ranks, for individuals it's essentially only 15 options for final score and, well, only one option for actual match score. https://www.twitch.tv/mbovosumo is showing a 2001 basho at the moment with Eurosport commentary in English, just saw Kotonowaka vs Takanowaka, heh.

they did the right thing with the banzuke imo. tamawashi and tobizaru deserve san'yaku slots and obv the third sekiwake slot always happens if an ozeki gets demoted and the two incumbents get their 8 wins. it feels like daiesho somehow drops from S to K with a mild 7-8 makekoshi every basho

I first saw this a while ago but for whatever reason thought of it again and it seems worth sharing. It's demonstrations of a bunch of kimarite, with a language twist. I thought that it helped learn to identify some techniques. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lO-jaIX-j0

So with the final basho of the year coming up I always like to take a look at who has the most wins in the calendar year so far as a way to measure who had a good year. I've put the top three below in spoilers in case you want to guess Wakatakakage 49 Kotonowaka 46 Hoshoryu. 44 No Ozeki in the top 10 is kinda embarrassing. http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Query.as...rt_by=sum_total
