What's chiyomaru up to these days? Sleeping somewhere? Waking up sleeping wrestlers?

I will of course be cheering for (but probably not picking) half-man half-duct tape tochinoknee

Chiyomaru worked his way back up to makuuchi last basho, and he’s still hanging around! I’m glad.

As far as his other antics I have no idea but I really want to know

I just ordered an Ozeki era Tochinoshin tegata and one from AOIYAMA. I'm going to call my tegata collection complete for now.

Yeah I mean you got both the main ones

What actually happened? Looks like they locked up, and Ichinojo basically walked him out. He didn't seem to hit anything on the way out of the dohyo...

I've now watched Sumo for a little over a year and this tournament has been the most exciting. Ura, Hak and Teru, interesting matches with Hokutofuji etc.. it's just been fantastic. If I had nails left I'd be biting them during every Terunofuji match.

I am quickly becoming the Tokushoryu of fantasy sumo.

Which suggests a freakishly good showing at some point! Well done.

Much better than my Kaisei level fantasy sumo.

Hoshoryu absolutely got robbed and I don’t speak Japanese but it seemed like the winner of that bout was getting a special prize. He was right to look pissed leaving.

I agree that he was robbed. However, his attitude has irked me the last few basho. He shows a lot of anger in his face and posture even when he wins and I find myself rooting against him. So I was kind of happy to see it go against him. I admit that this is kind of a messed up attitude for me to have.
