Jakusotsu 5,960 Posted December 18, 2024 Lots of promise after getting KK in his Komusubi debut at just 21 years old, but never been able to fulfill. Seven years later his body takes its toll apparently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yohcun 401 Posted December 18, 2024 Never seemed quite the same after his knee injury, and the decline/retirement of the old Onomatsu oyakata. He was one of this next big things when I first started watching, getting three consecutive 10-5s from his Makuuchi debut. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaninoyama 1,777 Posted December 18, 2024 Every year, like clockwork, when Onosho climbed the dohyo during the broadcast, my 90-year-old Japanese great-aunt-in-law would ask me: "How do you read his name?" Feels like injuries robbed him of a better career than he ultimately had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaninoyama 1,777 Posted December 21, 2024 (edited) Doesn't look like it's been mentioned that he plans to join a skin care company post-sumo, as he has dealt with skin issues in the past, and has a goal of eventually striking out on his own in business.
