13:42 The old man sitting in the chair and coaching the young wrestler is Tochiazuma Sr., the father of the current stable master, Tamanoi-oyakata(Ōzeki Tochiazuma Jr.). Both the father and son are top-division champions. Senior won his in January 1972, and Junior won his in January 2002, November 2003, and January 2006.

I believe Tochiazuma Jr. is the first and, to date, the only rikishi to win at least one yūshō in each of the Japan Sumo Association's six divisions. He's also Sumo's first three-time Ōzeki. He was first promoted to the rank in January 2002, and then re-promoted in September 2004 and March 2005.

14:20 The rikishi in the white mawashi is Hatsuyama, Tamanoi-beya's main man. He made his Makuuchi debut in the January 2026 tourney, ranked at West Maegashira #17 after a full year ranked at Jūryō, but finished with a 2–13 record. He'll definitely be relegated back to Division Two, but hopefully he'll come back stronger.

Thank you to this channel for showcasing a day in the life of a sumōtori. Hopefully, we can see more heya being featured here.

This is amazing - I didn't know the sumo cooked for themselves. No wonder they enjoy their food so much!

@Sajuuk 8 months ago

This is one of your best episodes. Seeing the culture of Sumo is fascinating and the Sumo guys are so funny, like a band of brothers!

I am a Muay Thai fighter, born in Central America and trained in Thailand, where the same tradition of strengthening the weakest to avoid any group weaknesses is shared. To food but also to training, now I'm back in my Western country, but I took the teachings with me and now I'm fighting to earn money, saving up to open my own business. My tatami in my city and creating the same teaching in young people of being united and sharing food, teaching and social equality

It's an honor to be part of a group that respects even the weakest member. In the western world that person is considered a liability but what I've seen here he is someone that is supported to strengthen the group. ❤️

Ow ... here in Brazil, some of these guys became well-known. Thanks to a Netflix series. A pretty good series. Happy to see part of a real daily basis.

I’m imagining the grocery bill at the end of the week! So inspirational none the less

"Make sure even the last guy eats properly". That was some great advice. Food is important for all athletes, but it seems to be especially important in the world of sumo. The members of the various stables really take care of each other. It's like a family.
