Lol for Papayasu! And he has that serious go-in-there-and-do-it way about him.
Onosato was amazing two tournaments ago, then had a weird one, but I love how he's bouncing back now.
And I totally agree, Hoshoryu is a monster when he has something to prove. Well, he always has something to prove as shin-Yokozuna.
Also, I'm always in doubt about their names, because NHK keeps not writing the long vowels. You have to look them up or hear them.
Looks like there won't be a come back for Yokozuna Hoshoryu this tournament.
He has pulled out of the tournament due to elbow injury.
I just watched the day's highlights and saw him take a bad tumble. It will be such a pity, not seeing his powerful attacks the rest of this tournament. Hope he recovers fully.
Random: what was that Ura was doing today? :))) I blinked, and he was doing a beautiful flying roll. Took all of two seconds.
I'm not sure what Ura's plan was there. If it had worked it probably would have seemed brilliant, but it didn't so it just seems bizarre.
I'm slowly going through NHK highlights this basho.
気に入り力士は the older guys from when i used to watch before and are still here: 宝富士, 高安, 玉鷲。Newer guys 大の里、尊富士
With the May basho coming up, I'm hoping this thread continues... getting really pumped up for what's coming! Hoshoryu making a (hopefully safe) comeback, Onosato and Aonishiki showing if they can ride on the wave of last tournament's success - and I'm still a little sad about Takayasu not quiiiiite making it... again.
Who's watching?
First day of 夏場所 complete, and everyone is looking healthy and in fine form. Should be a good tournament.
