Yubinhaad 11,604 Posted December 5, 2024 Hi all, sorry it's rather delayed but here at last are the kimarite statistics for the final basho of 2024. Oshidashi is on an eight-basho run as the most common kimarite, though this time the margin was the smallest of that run so far thanks to yorikiri surpassing 26% for the first time since 2021 Nagoya. It's still relatively uncommon for those two kimarite to account for more than half of the torikumi in a basho (44 out of 142 basho in the current kimarite era), although this basho's combined percentage of 53.31% is the third-highest of those. Kimarite from kettei-sen bouts are not included in the statistics.

That's one fewer than last year, although we did see appearances from five kimarite which were unused last year - kawazugake, ketaguri, nimaigeri, sakatottari and tsutaezori. 21 kimarite were unused this year, most notably ipponzeoi which drew a blank for the first time since 1992.

Jakusotsu 5,892 Posted December 6, 2024 Honourable mention to Kotoeiho for inventing a new kimarite on day 5 (IIRC). The entry on the NSK's results page was still blank even after the next bout's appeared until they finally settled for yoritaoshi. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The interest in yorikiri and oshidashi stats has been around for as long as I can remember, but I've always thought yorikiri + yoritaoshi compared to oshidashi + oshitaoshi should give a clearer view. The only difference is whether the loser stays on his feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
