By which point you must be wondering whether my posts for the next two weeks are all going to be about sumo. The answer is Yes. Sumo bashos only happen a few times a year, so I make sure to enjoy them as much as possible for as long as possible.
So far so good. Harumafuji won a tough battle today to stay in the running. Kotooshu and Kotomitsuki, stable mates, are both going strong at 4-0 each. I’m expecting good things from both of them this time round, none of the previous mediocre performances. Hakuho survived an early scare to win against …who was it? Ah crap, I forgot. But Asashoryu beat Tochiozan almost entirely by luck, making it both yokozunas and the two I mentioned before at 4-0. Who will be left standing at the end of the day?
