Fay 1,677 Posted February 7, 2016 Chiyoshoma's Juryo party took place yesterday in the Asakusa View Hotel. Around 500 people joined, mostly kouenkai members, Kokonoe seems to have a large number of members ... Also Chiyoshoma's father (a former sekiwake in mongolian sumo), his mother and his beautiful sister, who took us around last year in Mongolia were there. Chiyoshoma's parents brought some mongolian clothes for the Oyakata and Okamisan, both changed clothes in the middle of the party. some pics here 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akinomaki 39,978 Posted February 8, 2016 Did Kokonoe really wear a suit at all at the party or only haori-hakama before and after deel like in all pics? Only ex-Chiyotaikai seems to have been in suit. The party for celebrating Chiyoshoma's juryo promotion was yesterday, 350 guests, his parents and his elder sister as well. His father was an ozeki equivalent in Mongol-zumo. Kokonoe-oyakata midway changed from suit to a traditional Mongolian outfit, that Chiyoshoma's mother had made for him in one month after he had visited Mongolia for the New Year.http://www.daily.co.jp/sumo/2016/02/07/0008785180.shtml Nikkan counts about 400 and also tells the father as ex-ozeki (equivalent).http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1601678.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fay 1,677 Posted February 8, 2016 No, Kokonoe Oyakata didn't wear a suit at the party. I didn't count them of course, definitely more than 350, moto Chiyotaikai said 500. Ex-Ozeki for Chiyoshoma's father is right, my mistake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
