Chiyomaru - only a woman would say that ;-)

Some good pics in there Fay, you really have a knack for capturing emotions on camera.

There's only one rikishi missing and his real retirement might not be too far into the future, so I assume I can be glad the database already has a pic of him. But what's the story behind the Uchidate treatment from you?

Presumably the henka in Kotonowaka's last bout? At least the guy has the right shikona for it, what with "shun" being part of it...

(Blatantly off-topic: Speaking of the database and soon-to-be-retired rikishi, I think Tochinohana's shusshin is outdated...Yamagata-mura was merged into Kuji-shi in March '06.)

Great pictures of our new sekitori.

Now, guess why I dislike Kokkai....

Great pictures, thank you as always. m(_ _)m

Yes, Uchidate treatment for Shunketsu. Asashosakari is right, it's because of the henka against Kotonowaka and unfortunately I am a very vengeful person ;-).

Wow, I didn't catch that right away Fay. I thought you were talking about Kaio, but it sounded unnaturally cruel coming from you.

Now that I know, it is a blast from my past... That was the first thread I read on the forum, albeit in lurking mode. Also the first time I learned the words "henka" and "intai."I think I joined quite a bit later. And it did discolor my image of Shunketsu, even once I got to know them all better.
