Why I choose sumo

 

I was forced to go in for sumo competions when I was a child, even though I was not really interested.

One day when I was a junior high school student, I was invited to the Tomozuna-beya to watch keiko (practise). I still hadn't decided to join sumo then.

However it was the time that I was considering which way I should go after graduating from junior high school. People around me gave me a lot of advice and then I decided to follow sumo, In fact, it was set up for me in a way.

Let me explain: I didn't even know why I was in a sumo world, when I first entered. However the more my rank (banzuke) went up, the more I became aware of becoming strong as a rikishi (sumo wrestler). I started to enjoy fighting and came to like sumo.

Funny... the things you don't like initally sometimes inspire you simply by happening.

 

Daily life after practise

 

  • Hobbies: I try to relax by taking a nap, watching TV etc. I usually go out after keiko for treatment and massage to keep my physical condition. My hobby is radio-controlled models. I enjoy them on my holidays just after each basho because they relax me.

 

  • Ambition: To become a Yokuzuna. As long as I'm a sumo wrestler, I cannot give up my dream of becoming a Yokuzuna.
