And, suddenly, a new Ozeki has been crowned.

Do we know who the key deshi are? Or is it a wait and see type of thing.

A great strategy from Meisei get's him the Kinboshi! First career Kinboshi

Was doing some research on the new recruits at Jonokuchi. Shiroma is the one name that doesn't make too much sense, due to his college background and competing since High School. Any reason known or hinted at for his absence?

You'd think having a two time Yusho winner would entice some more recruits to join.

Shishi looks incredible so far. Hope he can make it.

Only 5 new recruits seems especially lower then the norm. We get around 8-9 usually right?

plus Shohoryu didn't want it after a while.

Akua is perfect for this role. Dude is one of the most entertaining Rikishi on the Dohyo.

WTF? That seems a lot more then past incidents in Ozumo.

Well, that's a new low for me...

Did Hokuseiho grow a couple Cm? Remember him being squarely at 200.

I would think the recruiting failures weren't helped by the bullying stuff and forced retirement of Hikarifuji. Who knows though,

willing to risk his own life just so Shiden doesn't make it back to Juryo

Accidentally revealed they still use social media to DM the guy who stayed overnight lmao. Wonder if that's gonna get anyone in trouble.

The End? The Beginning also holy cow NHK giving a crap about western viewers beyond Sumo Prime Time? Things are looking up.

JSA has to be frustrated. Dude is the best chance to make it and gets injured. Terrible luck, as it could def impact his run.

which was my point. the Miyagino versus Nishonoseki rivalry is already being flared up by fans

Would be funny if Nakamura can't 7-0 his way to Juryo in his first tournament, would really get this forum fired up lmao.

Right? 5-10 at J11 is insane. Even if Kawazoe looked poor, he or Shiden deserve that spot over him.

looks fun.

Onosho ain't making it, injuries have been getting worse. I guess Kotoshoho is a big maybe, and Hoshoryu probably makes it soonish.

PLAYOFFF TIME BABY

Positions him better if he comes back July or September.

Kiribayama is at 21 wins now for an Ozeki run ending next tournament right?
