NHK did. Hiro Morita also happens to do the NHK English broadcasts.

Day 2: onosho, wakatakakage and Ichiyamamoto disappointed me today, but good wins out of Takayasu, Wakamotoharu and hokuseiho.

Takakeisho looked better today, hoping he doesn't lose his feet anymore and goes 14-1!

I predict the waka brothers swapping ranks.

I think Shodai of the frictionless feet will make a return in week 2.

If you're lucky enough to get NHK World, the DOSUKOI Sumo Salon show is pretty neat. They had one all about tsuppari with great breakdowns and some former and current rikishi giving their insight.

Shodai!

Day 2: I love that there were at least two times Kiribayama should have won, but nope, Shodai is too slippery. He's always been a master of last second edge bullshit even at his worst, and when he's actually fighting well, like in this basho...

wodin: Jul 12, 2001; What do you do with a drunken Viking?

I'm genuinely curious what changed - he's moving so much better, displaying strength and flexibility that simply wasn't there, and actually tried to save a disadvantaged position. Maybe he saw a sports psychiatrist or something but i'm absolutely here for it, it's been a bummer seeing his sumo just fall off a cliff over the past six months

I legit lol'd at this.

I get the impression with shodai that he'd be content just hanging out and watching his favorite shows in mediocrity, but he just happens to be one of the greatest sumo wrestlers alive right now so he's just doing what he can. Or at least that was what ozeki shodai came off as, now that he's not even sanyaku he seems a bit more motivated.

Or I'm projecting.

Hirayuki: Mar 28, 2010

I loved the interview they did with Kinbozan after his day-1 win. Just the usual stupid questions, including "What are your goals for this basho?" "To not get injured and to get kachikoshi," he answered. "And you're fine with just getting kachikoshi?" the interviewer prodded. "Yes, I am," replied Kinbozan. "Hokuseiho said he was going for a double-digit win," needled the interviewer. Kinbozan, God bless him, came right back with "Well, that would be nice, but right now I'm going to try to not get injured and to get kachikoshi." You tell 'em, kiddo!
