Thought long and hard to come to the wrong conclusion:

Day 15 - Takarafuji

Surprised someone else had this, but they're not near the lead so I'm fine.

I see 4 reasonably solid choices, but lots of alternates if Ura wins on Day 14. I think I will go with:

Day 15 - Nishikigi

This was my backup pick!

15. Takanosho

Of course, this is based on what I think will happen on day 14, and I've been awful in daily games even by my standards. But here we go.

the problem with being the fourth guy in the tiebreaker logjam is that I couldn't wait for them *all* to pick before me :(

Wat.  

Why would you schedule Kotozakura - Hoshoryu but not Onosato-Wakamotoharu? 
(Onosato was my first guess, but I couldn't see a world where Onosato didn't get either Kotozakura or WMH after some reflection.) 
Hell, Hoshoryu-Ura at least gives him an opponent fighting for something.  

Other headscratchers include Takanosho/Kagayaki and Tobizaru/Meisei.  I see no reason this couldn't be the other way around, unless there's a brother-in-law thing going on. 

(Congrats, Gurowake! With Rank that its privileges.)
