The above is HD but with audio off sync between around 39 - 46:30 min. Guess I'll throw in Sunday Sports too: https://youtu.be/f28GdwuMbVk Women's Judo Olympic Gold medalist Haruka Tachimoto chats with Kisenosato. edit: I see Akinomaki has already posted the first video link above :) I'm going to try and upload anything that pops up this week. Most of the vids on YT will be unlisted after 24 hours just to avoid video take downs and strikes (I already have one and just being very cautious). Keeping the YT videos unlisted seems to be ok so far. Thanks a bunch, Akinomaki, for posting them. Edited November 6, 2017 by inhashi 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akinomaki 40,012 Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) There was a sumo special on one of the Akashiya TV shows - only on local MBS TV. Full of unpleasant memories of especially Nishikido-oyakata and gyoji Kimura Ginjiro, big mistakes of also tokoyama Tokonaka, with yobidashi Dakichi and also Shibatayama-oyakata and ex-Kakizoe (Ikazuchi), a bunch of comedians etc. - also the wife of Gori-chan (Sanoyama) http://www.daily.co.jp/leisure/kansai/2017/11/04/0010705129.shtml also as VOD till the 13th - but I haven't found the right proxy setting yet to watch it outside of Japan https://dizm.mbs.jp/title/?program=akashiya&episode=8 So the best video is one with these awful mini-screens - but the video has an actual HD quality that makes it even look good when converted to full screen, much better than the Dailymotion versions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHn5b4WVyqY&t=4m45s you learn what is unexpectedly no hansoku loss, but what may be going on at a mawashi matta Today was another pre-basho episode of BS11 InsideOut with Kyokudozan - tomorrow available as VOD for 2 weeks (and downloadable) Edited November 8, 2017 by Akinomaki 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First a recap of last basho. Kyokudozan again went to meet Hakuho at training and talked to him. Another focus then is on Chiyonofuji's achievements. Finally the basho forecast, with both experts naming Hakuho as favourite and Kisenosato as challenger. Dark horse is for Kyoku Takayasu and for Sugiyama Onosho.

When Takamisakari came for a visit, the light bulb went dead and Yaku is too small to reach to it - Takamisakari changed it for him - and Yaku put it into his collection Thanks for explaining. I am not tall enough to change a lightbulb either -- when it becomes necessary I stand on a chair. No rikishi around to do it for me, I'm afraid. Furuwake would be most welcome, of course, but there isn't much in my meagre collection of memorabilia to look at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akinomaki 40,012 Posted February 6, 2018 Asahi TV changed their program schedule for a 2h (planned) exclusive urgent newsflash (no sarcasm): "Takanohana tells it all" They had an exclusive 3.5h interview with him, where he broke his silence of 3.5 months. About Hakuho's behavior: "It's contrary to the divine ritual" (that sumo is) About the just 2 votes: "No regret, yes." "It's not like it's now OK to draw back." These news were announced on today's evening news Houdou Station. The program will start at 7p.m. and will also feature in tomorrow's HoSt. http://www.daily.co.jp/general/2018/02/06/0010963629.shtml 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
