rokudenashi 328 Posted December 23, 2024 I think Iwadanuki should be on that list too - wouldn’t want to go kyūjō after such a big performance last time… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted December 23, 2024 M9E Jejima has his fingers crossed, as he gets..... M5E Hiradoumi. Hmmm, ranked on the cusp of the lower joi-jin, Hiradoumi might be an okay pick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getayukata 119 Posted December 23, 2024 2 hours ago, Jejima said: M15E Getayukata has her hopes pinned on M9W Oshoma. Oshoma was ranked at M9W in September 2024, and ended up 10-5. Not sure how I feel about this really. It looks as if he didn't fight last time.Has he recovered from whatever kept him out in November I wonder. Certainly not my number one pick.

How would this game even handle having more than 70 players? There wouldn’t be enough real life sekitori to give every player a unique one, so something would have to change about the format.
