Reonito 1,519 Posted November 24, 2024 They'll be ranked quite close to each other and should meet in January. It wouldn't surprise me if Aonishiki were ranked higher in March. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just_some_guy 284 Posted November 26, 2024 Right now Aonishiki looks like he has a higher ceiling, but Shishi has been improving (contrary to what his last basho's performance might indicate) and has a size advantage. Tough call but I'll say Aonishiki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kintamayama 45,512 Posted November 29, 2024 Aonishiki- Shishi is too soft. Aonishiki is quicker, faster, and quicker. And stronger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wakawakawaka 157 Posted December 1, 2024 Having never seen Aonishiki compete, I will say with unwavering confidence that January 2026 he will be M9w. Shishi will be J2e. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Athenayama 1,079 Posted December 28, 2024 Shishi probably peaked (my humble opinion) in Kyushu 2024. Aonishiki has more "tools" I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't want anyone to have asymmetrical information. Very casual poll anyway, I was just curious - it's not one of Jejima's yearly ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
