kedevash 43 Posted November 26, 2024 Hello all, does a magazine or book of the sumo year in review exist? I follow sumo since 2006 and i'm interested of any year in review since if it can be found somewhere. Thanks in advance ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigKahunaMan 4 Posted December 16, 2024 (edited) I've bought two sumo "directories" on trips to Japan in the past (the official title in Japanese is 大相撲力士名鑑); they show all the stables and have headshots of who's in them, and they have a year in review section at the end, but it's pretty short, just a one-page summary of what happened at each basho, and how everyone on the makuuchi banzuke did for that basho, day by day, with the white and black circles. There's also a picture guide to all the kimarite and a sumo glossary at the end, but the whole book's in Japanese, of course. That's the closest thing I can find to what you mentioned, but I'm sure there's probably others out there for sale.
