Day 2 MIA, Day 3, Day 3 MIA, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7, Day 8, Day 9, Day 11, Day 13, Day 14, Day 15

According to the info on the the NSK website at this time, no sekitori rikishi will be absent on day 1 of the 2014 Nagoya basho. Non-sekitori absences should be announced within the next 24 hours or so. The Makushita rikishi are apparently all appearing (or at least none have withdrawn pre-basho start). As for the other ranks:

Takanohana-oyakata - (info)

Predicting right now that Ryuden (Jk14E) will return in time for the last match, embarass some kid half his size, and disappear again until the next basho, as he has been doing since January.

[kuroimori 1,634]

Amazing that there isn't a single kyujo in Makuuchi, Juryo and Makushita.

This means that the top 190 rikishi of the current banzuke will be active! quite impressive I think.

[Kotoviki 16]

Yes, that is Ryuden's plan so he avoids banzuke gai.

Tokiarashi retired.. Surprised everyone just quit suddenly between the basho and cut his own hair... Disappointed a lot of the koenkai supporters as he was a heya favorite being the first rikishi to join Tokitsukaze after the hazing death of Tokitaizan

[Gurowake 4,100]

Is it really worth the one basho head start on starting back up from the bottom to make a mockery of the process by embarrassing some poor 0-6 or 1-5 kid on Day 13? The Kyokai should use their special torikumi powers to put Ryuden up against someone who will actually manage a serious fight with him. And it's almost 2 years since he's fought a full basho; how does anyone think he can recover if he hasn't by now? Did the one basho he had 3 matches in cause a different injury, or severely aggravate his original one to the point that it's required over a year of healing? It seems entirely dishonorable.

[Fukurou 534]

Yes, that is Ryuden's plan so he avoids banzuke gai.

That's obvious, but when is he going to try taking part from the beginning? If he has a problem, he can always go kyujo. There can't possibly be anything learned about his condition by facing one noob every 2 months down in Jonokuchi.

Thanks for the info about Tokiarashi.

[Akinomaki 40,761]

Not exactly the right thread: Takanohana-oyakata is kyujo, for the whole basho.

He had (successful) surgery on both ears in June but on the 11th his ear(s) felt not right and he is now in hospital for a check-up.

Day 2 Fusen

East Jonidan 94 DAIISSHIN did not appear for his match.

[Fukurou 534]

Day 3

East Jonidan 94 DAIISSHIN (0-1, fusen day 2) and West Jonokuchi 20 DAISHIRYU (0-1) have withdrawn as of day 3.

[kuroimori 1,634]

ms6w TAKANOYAMA did not show up for his bout today.

Any news on him? It would be only the second time to go kyujo.

Hope he just missed the bus or fell asleep in the train...

[Fukurou 534]

Day 5

Two rikishi withdrawing:

West Makushita #6 Takanoyama (0-2, fusen day 3)

West Sandanme #23 Daishonada (0-2) (2-0)

Edited July 16, 2014 by Fukurou

[Gurowake 4,100]

West Sandanme #23 Daishonada (0-2)

Daishonada is actually 2-0.

[Fukurou 534]

Daishonada is actually 2-0.

Thank you!

[Gurowake 4,100]

Also, Jk12w Kotokimura has withdrawn (according to NSK website, where I assume this is being taken from)

[Itachiyama 119]

No information what's wrong with Takanoyama?

[Fukurou 534]

I'm resetting the subject header on this, as I'm not going to be around much for the next few days. Certainly not enough to keep track of things daily. I hope people will continue to post news here!

[shumitto 418]

Homasho's kyujo is now official. The default win will go to Kakuryu.

[Vikanohara 171]

That was already official the moment you saw it happen. Magic happens, but miracles not.

[Kintamayama 45,508]

Right hamstring muscle rupture and right knee ligament something. Doctors? 右膝前十字靱帯損傷、右ハムストリングス筋断裂

2 months to heal. Hmm..

Not a doctor, but yeah, ruptured hamstring and also a non-specified ACL injury. And given that diagnosis, I second the "hmm".

[ALAKTORN 346]

Hōmashō… :-(

[Akinomaki 40,761]

No information what's wrong with Takanoyama?

NHK announced (again) that he injured the elbow at which he had an old injury.

If its ACL damage, I am afraid its perfectly possible that those 2 months will be exactly as long as Baruto's :( .

Intai? :-(

Lower division Day 7 stuff:

Jd94e Daiisshin joins the basho (missed scheduled Day 2 bout, was absent since for an 0-1-2 record)

Jk13e Imaizumi is out (1-2 record, fusenpai in last bout)

Late edit: On a side note, both are from the same stable (Asahiyama).
