Unkonoyama 105 Posted February 2, 2015 Thank you to all of the posters here for all of the good information and translations that I cannot get anywhere else. I started subscribing to NHK just before the Hatsu Basho and became aware of this website around the same time. I especially like all of the background information that you share regarding the sumo lifestyle and activities between basho. Thanks again and I look forward to discussing upcoming basho with everyone! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuroimori 1,634 Posted February 2, 2015 Nice shikona you got yourself - or should I rather say shi*kona...? ;-) In any case, welcome to the forum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unkonoyama 105 Posted February 4, 2015 Nice shikona you got yourself - or should I rather say shi*kona...? ;-) In any case, welcome to the forum! Lol @ "shi*kona", this is what my wife (Japanese) called me during the basho. Actually she alternated between this and Unkonogawa, I found a mountain to be slightly preferable to a river in this situation so that is what I went with here. She is from Hokkaido and remembers watching Chiyonofuji. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
