Natsu Basho 2025 - Day 15
Ozeki Kakushoyamaii had an incredible tournament, scoring well and also demonstrating the ability to win under pressure. He came through on the final day to equal Kotosho, who had somehow managed (an incredible feat) to gain 11 wins with the fifth-lowest score in the division. Naturally the Ozeki won the tie-breaker and the yusho and has his eleven wins for Yokozuna promotion. All that remains is the rubber stamp from the games master. Well done, Kakushoyamaii...this is a truly deserved and storied promotion that won't be forgotten in the history of the game. And we now have three Yokozuna, another first. That said, Yokozuna Yumezukuri will need to be careful in July as he will need a kachikoshi to keep his rank.
Onosato's loss to Hoshoryu cost Chocshoporyu dearly in Juryo as he lost his initiative to Athenayama, who came through to win the division with an 11-4 record.
And Suifu was the winner in the Makushita leaders contest to take the prize with a 13-2 record. This is his first ever yusho and he'll enjoy a nice bump up the rankings come July.
Congratulations to all the winners and see you back here in the summmer.

Natsu Basho 2025 - Day 14
Kotosho won again and just needs one more win for yusho. A loss would allow Ozeki Kakushoyamaii or Sekiwake Sumio into a tie-break that they would certainly win by virtue of superior scoring. A win would also be enough for Yokozuna promotion for the Ozeki.
In Juryo a win for Chocshoporyu would be enough for yusho. Athenayama's scoring is way behind his rival so he would have to win while Chocshoporyu loses.
It's a similar story in Makushita. Suifu is the points leader and just needs a win. A loss would allow co-leader Hisui in as long as he wins his bout.
Good luck to all the contenders.

Natsu Basho 2025 - Day 13
Kotosho lost today but remains the sole leader, one win ahead of five players, including Yokozuna Pandaazuma, Ozeki Kakushoyamaii and Sekiwake Sumio. The Ozeki is two wins away from yokozuna promotion and so needs to win out. He fights Kitakachiyama tomorrow. Kotosho will face Yokozuna Pandaazuma.
Juryo leader Chocshoporyu lost and now he shares the lead with Athenayama and Chishafuwaku. Pepenohana, Hisui and Suifu lead Makushita with 11 wins.
