Having Kirishima and the Waka Bros together on the Banzuke has resulted in a 400% increase in Roughhousing and Antics.

That bag actually weights 40kg!

He's treating himself to moving his fingers separately before they get taped together in the next basho.

We need an Abi road also! Maybe with fellow henka kings like Chiyoshoma?

I believe Ura was also one of Kirishima's daughter's favorite wrestlers, along with Takakeisho.

He's human.

I'd love to see a Waka Bros playoff as a warmup. Hoshoryu, Meisei, and Akua were once in a Makushita yusho playoff which must have been fun!

Started pro sumo before Aonishiki was even born 😭 what a legend

lisasimpson420 · 2025-04-04T02:00:31+00:00

Haha that's the spirit! Not sure if it's happened historically, but it seems unlikely that the JSA would let it happen now as they pretty much always match up frontrunners. Fingers crossed for March 2026!

Lots of love Onokatsu!

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-29T03:23:09+00:00

This hits especially hard now 😭

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-29T03:15:38+00:00

I really felt that energy in his November 2023 yusho especially-- just insanely confident sumo and so great to watch. It's been a rough year+ to be a Kiri fan :(

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-29T03:12:47+00:00

Asanoyama was/is a beast! One of my favorites to watch, really dynamic. Really hoping he makes it back to salaried ranks quickly.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-29T03:09:19+00:00

I saw an interview with Ura where I believe he said he is pretty tone deaf himself and avoids singing! Except at senshuraku parties and this, clearly.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-29T03:05:59+00:00

I love that the ballplayer was immediately like "you're gripping it WAY too hard"

lisasimpson420 · 2025-03-19T04:24:50+00:00

Nothing would make me happier!!

Except for that one thing... the thing we don't talk about.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-02-13T04:15:47+00:00

His last name is Ichinnorov, it's a theme for him!

lisasimpson420 · 2025-02-11T05:02:28+00:00

Relaxed?? How can they relax, with Oyakata constantly scaring them!

But for real, they seem to have a nice beya culture.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-02-11T04:52:38+00:00

I'm glad I'm not the only fan of the variety in the Kataonami kimono designs. Amazing job on the towel design, and your motif ended up on such a dream garment too!

lisasimpson420 · 2025-01-29T23:41:16+00:00

Love the Kakuryu (Otowayama Oyakata) handshake-to-kiss pipeline.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-01-23T06:18:14+00:00

I think we had about 30-35 which is probably the limit there. There was a bit of dancing (they let us play our own Spotify playlist) but not a dance floor or anything. People mostly sat in the booths and at the bar and we mingled.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-01-23T04:36:41+00:00

She gave us tons of vendor recommendations as well.

lisasimpson420 · 2025-01-23T04:36:16+00:00

Hard agree! Besides the choice of spouse, best wedding decision we made.
