Can you guess the wrestler whose sekitori wins are represented here in this pie chart?
There don’t seem to be many wrestlers who have more than half of their wins from a single kimarite. In this case, it isn’t even close. I would put the difficulty level on this as Easy.
This has to be my main man Kotoshogiku
I’m colour blind! Difficulty level for me: super high!!
Which kimarite is 412 & which is 89, please?!
412 is Yorikiri, and 89 is Oshidashi.
I’m going to say Tochinoshin for this one
I did not think of 508 compliance…will need to do that for the next one. The big blue one is yorikiri.
To be fair, the legend on the right ranks them in order from most to fewest.
And if I wasn’t colour blind, I’m sure I’d be able to see that.
Thanks for the heads up, Momoiro! Think I’m going for Tochinoshin too!
Currently active rikishi? Makuuchi only? Kotoshogiku seems a great guess. Eyeballing the chart at 650-700 career makuuchi wins, which seems to roughly fit his career. Tochinoshin fits by style but no way does he have that many makuuchi wins.
It’s not just wins in makuuchi. It includes Juryo.
Now I feel great about Kotoshogiku, since his M+J wins total is almost 700! Fun game.
Guessing Tochinoshin—
Kotoshogiku, I believe….
The only one I know who has more than 50% yorikiri is the ole belly bumper himself Kotoshogiku
Kotoshogiku
Who put the bomp in the bomp, shi-bomp, shi-bomp?
Who put the hug in the hugga-chugga-lug, lug?
um… I’m with Giku.
LOL!
Kotoshogiku was my gut reaction, but now that some are suggesting Tochinoshin, I could believe that just as readily. Fun with data :D
My guess would be Giku too at least among active/recently active rikishi. Tochinoshin has a high Yorikiri ratio too, but nowhere near enough bouts. I think Kyokutenho had a very high yorikiri ratio as well.
When you going to solve it? ;)
