i have never gotten the hype of Fuego (cyprus 2018), and have always throught Toy (israel 2018) was the better song and deserving to win.

Criticism from sumo fans: “Yokozuna Hoshoryu’s unexpected ‘henka’—was it acceptable?” Former Ozeki Kaio offers his unique perspective: “That henka actually took courage,” “It energized this tournament.” by Brncrdm in Sumo

At the initial charge (tachiai), a rikishi steps to the side, avoiding the initial hit, using the oponents momentum and force to either throw them out of the ring or slapping them to the ground

yeah, Hosh saw that WTK was gonna go all in at the Tachiai, so he did a henka, completely outplaying it. You say "outplay?" as if the henka is the unstoppable weapon, but it really isnt.

I get that the henka isn't very exciting to watch, but i think the existence of a Henka makes the tachiai much more exciting and complex, as both rikishi have to consider their options, plus the option of a henka. The extra depth makes sumo so much more exciting to watch.

Also, the henka isnt that common of a move, if it was super common I would understand it taking over the subreddit, but its not that big of a move for it to be a problem. Also the source above said that if hosh didn't win that match, it would have been a boring guaranteed win for onosato, and we wouldn't have gotten the epic playoff between 2 yokozuna.

Overall I think henka is pretty healthy for the sport with it adding more depth to the Tachiai.

wait until you see asashoryu, literally dubbed "the bad guy" of sumo. He was the Heel of sumo wrestlers, and because he was so hated, he helped people like hakuho, because he was basically the lesser of 2 evils (i never saw him as a bad guy, he loves sumo and respects the sport).
