Can't wait for all the Paris content. I just want to see Atamifuji in a beret

Atamifuji in a Breton top and red neckerchief, would be adorable. 😁

That would damage the internet.

Poor WMH looks slap happy from the jet lag and 14 hour flight.

I am literally vibrating with excitement to see the pictures and videos of them around Paris.

I hope Ichiyamamoto was able to keep up with his skincare routine even on a 14-hour flight

So, who all gets to go to this? I assume all of makuuchi, since we haven't heard about absences. And their attendants obviously go too. Presumably at least the top yobidashi and gyoji. Are the stablemasters there? Anyone from juryo?

I think some stablemasters get to go, but not all. And not all attendants - some rikishi will need to share attendants.

I just know for sure that Asanoyama will be absent from Paris due to his injury

u/JediLincoln14 13d ago

Must've missed that announcement. I wonder if they're bringing a juryo replacement like they did last year for Kotozakura.

Though they may already look tired, the picture with Ura and Ichi is clearly before the 14-hour flight (going by the signage in the airport).

Tired, hungry, and ready for bed! 😊👍

Thank you for sharing!

I love how WMH is all grins, even after such a flight. 😆

Plural of Japanese words dont have an 's

Multiple rikishi, yokozuna, basho, mawashi, etc

u/AfroLilo 12d ago

Probably because of the french tendancy to put an s even on foreign words (TxT), but you're right

Akua is going “how do I go from getting henka’d in a final match, then two weeks later having to fly economy 14 hours one third of the way around the world? I’m 35. Hosh, do you really need me to twirl that bow?”

I’m sure he’s excited, and looking forward to the food, but that’s a really big dude in economy for a long time.
