Inosuke is the gift that keeps giving. The moment you think not even he can mess up, he immediately invents a new way to show off what a legendary klutz he is.
@@lipstickzombie4981 Has there been any indication that he will retire early? Because according to mandatory retirement age at 65, current Inosuke's final basho will be the 2024 Aki Basho, so in about 15 months. If he will fulfill this we are going to witness his unintentional shenanigans for another eight tournaments. :) Once he will retire however, I expect it to not take too long until we finally see another Kimura Shonosuke again (the last one retired in early 2015) since all the current four Sanyaku gyoji are pretty good in my opinion (especially Konosuke, but since he is the last in line, it will be a couple of years until it's his turn).
As we remember the legends of yesteryear; let us look forward to the rising talents that shall take their place. As dragons of old bid farewell, young Koi shall make their presence known.
@@tudorpopescu7191 I hope that Seiho's trip to sanyaku where he lost to the sekiwake who are all smaller than him 3 times in a row wakes him up to the idea that impersonating a tree for several minutes won't get you far. 👀 Him being shellshocked so bad he lost to Oho and Kagayaki is just 😘🤌
It's so cool that Kakuryu's father is a professor in university and was able to find an expert to translate the letter young Kakuryu wrote to Japanese.

Im so glad for how the elder stock situation rounded out and Michonoku taking Kakuryu in as coach and heir apparent was an incredibly generous and smart move for the future of sumo! We will see big things from his efforts in making his men stronger rikishi, his techniques were outstanding, and it makes me happy to know they will be passed on and taught to new rikishi as well. Kirishima may well go even higher under his tutelage.
I might not comprehend the full scope of things, but why didn't Kakuryu create his own stable or took into another name? Was he already looking into staying at Michinoku?
@@Betortitas89 I believe they are fairly strict on creation of new stables and Michinoku had no clear successor as a smaller stable with few sekitori so there was an opening to fill, but I am not clear on how the whole coaching invite and elder stock transfer agreement worked out. Maybe Chris Sumo or someone with greater understanding of the details will make a video on it. It did seem to work out nicely and seems be a very mutually beneficially power transfer agreement.
Amazing ceremony, full of emotions and great figures of Sumo, including Hakuho I believe. Thank you Kakuryu for always putting the best of you, you are an inspiration and you will be missed
I got hooked into sumo by a Chris vid during yokozunas Hakuho Kakaryu, Kisenosato reign. It truly is the end of an age. Kise will always be my fav yokozuna, but Kakaryu never failed to impress. I look forward to a happy rivalry between all three former Yokozuna.
As soon as he got promoted to Ozeki Kirishima was able to defeat the Yokozuna... But liftout shouldn't be something he tries to add to his arsenal! Thanks for the memories Kakuryu, seeing him and Hakuho continuing their rivalry as coaches will be faszinating!
It's a "demo" match. Terunofuji wasn't actually trying to win. It's a opportunity for Kirishima to show what he can do and he oblige. Also Teru isn't going to risk injury going all out.
@@sgtjyf01 I know ;-)) That backslap at the end from teru to kiri was friendly. And a liftout seems to be the fitting end to that kind of 'ceremonial' match, but Terunofuji or Mitakeumi are far more able to perform such a liftout impressively. But I am still hoping for more cahnces for Kirishima to actually defeat Terunofuji. The next basho might be wild! Three top sekitori as healthy as they might be (Terunofuji, Takakeisho and Kirishima) and three Sekiwake hoping to be promoted! (Hoshoryu 21 wins, Daieisho 22 wins and Wakamotuharu 21 wins)
@@asasipogi Those Ozeki hopeful should pray that: a) Kirishima is a little winded after his promotion events with supporters. b) Takakeisho still isn't fully healthy and therefore fights cautiously for 8 wins or actually pulls out to further heal. c) Terunofuji isn't as furious as he was, after his successfull comeback from injury Because if two of these three are in full force, getting to 11 or 12 wins will be extremly hard!
one of the best, what a road that man walked, i can only bow in deepest respect and wish him all the good health and best of luck on his new path in life
@@shorthopdoublelasers4168 Ive seen people say that he missed his flight, but I wouldn't know for certain. I'm sure theres more to the story or some sort of bad blood. I did hear that Kakuryu personally flew to mongolia and asked Asashoryu to attend his retirement so Asashoryu would not miss it.
Kakuryu and his infamous pic with rubber ducks at a bath (whether real or fabricated) really does drive his 'not too serious' image to both his fans and haters. If Hakuho's theme in his retirement is extravaganza eleganza Kakuryu's a glorified family reunion, complete with mischievous kids and someone accidentally getting cut. 😆
I really enjoyed that Chris! Kakuryu was my favourite to watch - a very tasty wrestler with huge skill. It's sad to see him retire and hopefully he'll have great success as a coach. And thank you for all your coverage of sumo. We'd never get to see it here in Ireland without you.
Asashoryu was and is a big supporter of hakuho for those speculating otherwise. Recently, asa has defended hakuho publicly when he caused Japanese controversy with his forearm hits and celebrations etc
An unbelievably good wrestler, just unlucky to be caught in the era of the goat Hakuho 😅 always enjoyed watching and cheering for him. All the best for the future, Kakuryu!
Thank you for giving us so much detail. I enjoyed seeing Terunofuji allow Kiribayama to beat him. Lol. Kiri's gotta do it for real now. The glitches did not ruin the ceremony. From the various clips I've seen, the love and respect for the 71st yokozuna was obvious. I wish Kakuryu success in correcting the issues in Michinoku beya. With his leadership hopefully he'll be able to guide his rikishi to promotion, as he has done with Kirbayama.
The one rikishi I regret I didn't have the chance to experience is Harumafuji. I saw a few old videos and he was really enjoyable to watch. I hope Kirishima will provide the same type of enjoyment with his very similar style of sumo.
Say what you will about Inosuke's mistakes refereeing actual sumo bouts, at least he also knows how to handle scissors without hurting himself ... oh wait
Asashoryu? I'm surprised to see him make an appearance here; he was retired long before Kakuryu ever reached yokozuna. Yet Asashoryu didn't show up for Hakuho's retirement, his greatest rival ever?
@@raymondsosnowski9717 Yeah, it pretty much has to be that way. Otherwise, none of them would have any friends. Plus, they understand each other like no one else can.
I've heard that him and Hakuho are on speaking terms again if they were ever really off them. I believe Asa simply missed his flight. But GREAT TO SEE HIM AGAIN!
I never understood Kakuryu's brilliance until Harumafuji was forced to retire. I feel that he was underappreciated wrestling in the shadow of the greatest ever and another who was more charismatic.
Kakuryu had the "misfortune" to be fighting during the Hakuho era and seemed somewhat in the background. But I will remember him as a very respectable yokozuna who brought great honor to the sport. I hope Kirishima (I just managed to memorize Kiribayama) can follow in his footsteps.
Chris, it would be awesome if you did a video where you went down the list of every yokozuna. Gave a brief description like height weight, then notable achievements and fighting style etc. I know it would be a massive undertaking but I wanna speak it into existence
For years I have loved your content and contributions to the sumo sphere. I'm a lone Inuit super fan. I dream of attending a basho. If I ever leave Alaska for a basho, which one should I go to (not too hot weather)?
Sad, definitely, and yet we are watching the next legends in the making (that Day 15 Hoshoryu-Hokutofuji staredown will live rent-free in my head for a while). Sumo's eternal cycle!
Maybe, maybe not. It depends on where he wants to have it. If he wants to have a public ceremony on the dohyo at the Kokugikan, then it could be a year or more. Kakuryu retired more that two years ago, in March 2021, and Ikioi, whose ceremony was held the day after, in July 2021. There is still a backlog from COVID, and also these ceremonies take a long time to plan and execute. If he goes for a hotel ceremony, or a Kokugikan ceremony that is open to invited guests only, then it could be sooner, maybe just a few months. Given his popularity and his status as an ex-Ozeki and Emperor's Cup winner, I expect that he will have a full Kokugikan ceremony. If that's the case, then I would look for something in the beginning of June or August.
@@LauraJdogmom On the other hand, as of now, he will leave sumo behind, as he isn't a japanese citizen. Getting one last big payday from a large ceremony should be a fitting end for a great career, shouldn't it!?
Do we think that Kakuryu and Kurdish ima had any idea of tribe abuse scandals that happened in their stable? It’s hard to imagine that they didn’t know what was going on, which makes me super sad.
They don't live at the stable like the lower recruits. There are many hours they don't spend there, not to mention Kakuryu probably has hardly been to the stable since retirement.
The Mongol Empire went far and wide, at the flip side we have Afghanis and Pakistanis with Khan as surnames and the Mughal empire was founded by a descendant of Genghis Khan.
I'm a Mongolian and It's just a culture thing. Many Tibetan and Sanskrit names were borrowed in the past 400 years where Buddism were the main religion. It's still is. But today, we're more atheists who respect Buddhism. Even tho, you might not be a buddhist, you'd still have Buddhist names. Exactly like those westerners who have Biblical names.
Inosuke is the gift that keeps giving. The moment you think not even he can mess up, he immediately invents a new way to show off what a legendary klutz he is.
🤣
And sadly that will end this year, his retirement is due sometime in the final quarter. Enjoy the geezer as much as we can.🤣

It's probably just a coincidence. I imagine that Anand is also a good Mongolian name.
The Mongol Empire went far and wide, at the flip side we have Afghanis and Pakistanis with Khan as surnames and the Mughal empire was founded by a descendant of Genghis Khan.
Also Ariunaa is Hokuseiho's first name based on the official JSA site which isn't too far off from Arjuna, a popular Indian name as well.
