Today's opponet is Ozeki Kotomitsuki who scored 4wins against Baruto until last tournaments.
But he is not well because of catching cold before this tournament.
Kotomitsuki scored 1 win 4 losses until yesterday.



Baruto's win !
Baruto has mastered his style to win.
This strength is real.

how good is his japanese?

what drink they have to drink before bouts?

The drink before bout is called "Chikara Mizu".
"chikara" means power and " mizu" means water.
It is only a water but it is kind of ceremony to clean soul and body and to power to the people.

Thanks for posting the videos! I too think Baruto's sumo is getting better and better. He showed great strength against the Ozeki today.

His comment on wanting to make the fans happy shows what a nice person he is too.
