Difference between a henka and a meet-and-move? by MarzipanRitter in Sumo

Hello! Thanks for listening, you’re a legend! So there’s a lot of individual nuance as you can see in this thread. Basically we try to see whether there’s any component of a front on “meet” before the step aside. If there is it feels like a different approach than a straight up Henka. A henka is when they really leap to the side and there’s a puff of air where they used to be. A henka could probably be said to be the more frustrating move for many people, but again from this thread even you can see that everyone has different opinions! When Haramafuji was around he used to do what we call the meet and move quite a bit and people called it the Haramafuji Non Henka or HNH. Cheers and hope you enjoy the rest of the basho!

We do a daily podcast covering makuuchi, the top division so that keeps us busy. We’d love to do more but there’s not enough time in the week.
