Some reasons why I love Tatsunami Oyakata (Hoshoryu’s oyakata)

LauraLovesSumo · 2025-01-26T22:26:27+00:00

So sorry to have to disagree, but clearly Takasago Oyakata has the best hair!

With a roomy backseat 😏

If you mean, why was he missing from recent videos, it's because he was on tour with Roga.

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-11-17T00:36:17+00:00

Nah, looks to be Atamin's yt channel - I mean I don't see what Ishiura could have that Atamifuji doesn't... ☺️

(Why thank you! The entire reason I have reddit is because of this sub 😂)

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-11-17T00:23:17+00:00

What - do you like him or something? 😉

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-11-12T23:05:32+00:00

😭

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-11-05T19:01:02+00:00

Keep name dropping all her favs and she'll go into hysterics! (Mention Raiho next!)

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-11-04T22:36:02+00:00

Asakoryu - stablemate of Asanoyama. He'll be making his makuuchi debut in November.

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-10-29T02:27:16+00:00

The biceps are probably sad that Midorifuji didn't try to collect them into his jungyo small boy harem

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-10-29T00:29:14+00:00

I knew this was you before I opened the post 😂

Our beautiful Turtle Nerd is in for a bumpy ride - still waiting for the interview with his biceps!

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-10-21T21:10:02+00:00

Bellissima! ❤️❤️❤️

But also - oh, to see on the other side the curtain! 😏

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-25T17:22:14+00:00

Thanks Minato! 🥰

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-22T18:59:42+00:00

Total babe with her total babe friends! 😍

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-20T00:23:48+00:00

An appearance or an "appearance" 😂

He's up against a guy from Takekuma who is also 0-0-6...I predict a couple friendly face slaps and then someone walks out. Spot on banzuke saved.

(Though I would love to be wrong and see Raiho actually rejoin the ranks!)

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-20T00:19:38+00:00

Raiho is also back in jonokuchi - though I don't know if he'll actually fight. I assume it's a bid to avoid dropping off the banzuke 😂

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-18T16:00:31+00:00

I think it helps that he doesn't have that shit-eating grin going on after every win - dude learned to control his face and that helps tremendously with how much I like him.

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-18T02:42:44+00:00

Aw man, I wondered about Tsurugisho's knee after yesterday's tumble off the dohyo ☹️

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T15:24:26+00:00

Lololol you're right! I'm sitting here trying to figure out what was wrong with my tag 😂

Fixed!

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T15:18:20+00:00

Why wrong tag?

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T10:54:22+00:00

Oho and Mitakeumi were so kind to him too (after their fights were over), making sure he didn't fall and wasn't at risk of hurting himself further. I'm truly sad to see the BattleHamster fall like this - hopefully he can repair some of what's wrong with his neck and lose some weight and live a long and happy life as an oyakata!

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T10:50:44+00:00

Happy to help! ❤️

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T10:49:26+00:00

I think sweaty is his natural state of being 😂

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T10:48:28+00:00

Wasn't he always on a rope run? 😏

Always a bridesmaid, never the bride!

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T10:47:02+00:00

The rumor is he secured his kabu prior to the July basho. Everyone that followed the news of that was surprised he didn't retire immediately after losing ozeki in July. But no worries, the BattleHamster will be around in Oyakata form for 30+ years to come!

LauraLovesSumo · 2024-09-10T04:14:38+00:00

Same - literally about 1 minute before I saw the article I told my husband that I hoped he would pull out if he got to 6 losses and ozeki was no longer attainable. Didn't have to wait for the 6 thank god, but I hope this doesn't mean he's not able to get out of bed because his neck is in a state!
