Wow... under 9 minutes for the May basho to completely sell out, that has to be a record

So we finally have the seating plan for the July 2025 #Sumo tournament in Nagoya and I have a few thoughts. (1/Who knows)

1st off: Capacity is only going to be 7800 people vs 7500 at Dolphin Arena

Buried in the news of Wakaikari's younger brother Chugo going pro as a sandanme tsukedashi for Hatsu: Hatsu will also have a smaller Sandanme, going from 90 spots to 80.

So, I was reminded on Discord that this happened pretty much exactly a year ago now:

So Chunichi is reporting that Mitakeumi suffered from a left shoulder subluxation and bruising of his ribs and hip during his win on Day 6 of the Basho. Still feel he shouldn't have fought yesterday, but given what happened, could have been worse.

Well, they were not on my list of next stable to get a YT channel, but I'll take it.

Oh and while I am at it:

I have been compiling an up to date list of all the stable websites and socials, if any of you have any information the sheet lacks, feel free to let me know:

Also I can't be the only one who feels Mitakeumi should have taken a couple of days off and come back around Day 10 or 11? Like, his last match seemed like he had no power off the tachiai and was taking it a bit too easy.

So another quick thought:

Shishi is not quite ready for Makuuchi IMO. He maybe stays if he gets to 7 wins, but I don't see him getting a KK this go around.

Also, I really wanna see the eventual Shishi v Anoishiki rivalry play out (Which I see happening in Jan if Shishi drops back.)

So seven days are in the books for the Kyushu basho and I think it is safe to say we are likely going to see an Ozeki win and the start of a Yokozuna run. I think the big question is gonna be which Ozeki will it be.

Personal Bias says Onosato, gut says Kotozakura

Since I know there is at least 2 people on here who like him:

Enho had a match today (Currently Sandanme 56 West)

He won via shitatenage to go to 4-0 and secure is KK for the tournament.
