Definitely felt like Takanosho started venting some frustration through those thrusts. Was quite reminiscent of his old stablemate Takakeisho.

It was like the spirit of Rick James took over the doyho.

Roga worked hard for the win Day 12. 💟 Proud of him.

Also, I followed you on Bluesky!

Can't wait to watch Hoshoryu v. Onosato tonight (we're a day behind). What a basho. I usually have a preference and a pick to win, but I'm on the fence with this one. Nice to see both Kotozakura and Hoshoryu competing for the top spot.

This has been a really fun tournament to watch. Some great performances outside of the top title chasers, too.

Musubi no ichiban on Day 15 is gonna be one for the ages. This is why I love being a sumo fan right now, we're watching the next historical era of the sport being born.

What a fantastic storyline we've had this tournament, huh? So great to see two guys on top of their game on a collision course. Imagine if we get a repeat of this:
