{{nihongo|'''Yamahibiki stable'''|山響部屋|Yamahibiki-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the [[Dewanoumi stable|Dewanoumi]] ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was set up in 1985 as Kitanoumi stable by former ''[[yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Kitanoumi]], who branched off from [[Mihogaseki stable]].<ref name="Sharnoff">{{Cite book |author=Sharnoff, Lora |title=Grand Sumo|publisher=Weatherhill |year=1993 |isbn=0-8348-0283-X}}</ref> It absorbed [[Hatachiyama stable]] in 2006, following the death of its head coach, former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Hokuten'yū Katsuhiko|Hokuten'yū]]. In May 2010 it also absorbed [[Kise stable (2003)|Kise stable]], which was forced to close after its stablemaster, former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Higonoumi]], was implicated in the selling of tournament tickets to [[yakuza]] members.<ref>{{cite news|title=Kise wrestlers to join Kitanoumi stable|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/ss20100530a1.html|newspaper=Japan Times|date=30 May 2010|access-date=1 June 2010}}</ref> As a result of this move the stable had 46 wrestlers, making it by some margin the largest stable in sumo at this time.

As a result, Kise was allowed to reestablish the stable in April 2012, and all former members of Kise stable, as well as newcomers [[Jōkōryū]] and [[Daiseido Yoshitomo|Sasanoyama]] who had been recruited by Kise-''oyakata'', joined the reconstituted stable again.

Stablemaster Kitanoumi died of [[colorectal cancer]] and multiple organ failure on the evening of November 20, 2015.<ref>{{cite news|title=Sumo great Kitanoumi dies at 62|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/11/21/national/sumo-great-kitanoumi-dies-at-62/#.VlmG7r8nS80|newspaper=[[The Japan Times]]|access-date=28 November 2015|date=21 November 2015}}</ref> Former ''maegashira'' [[Ganyū Kenji|Ganyū]], who had been serving as a coach at the stable, inherited it.

==Ring name conventions==
A few wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 北 (read: kita or hoku), meaning north, in deference to the stable's former owner, Kitanoumi. Some examples are Kitaharima, Kitataiki and Hokuseikai.

[[Image:Tomozuna Beya. 2011.JPG|thumbnail|right|280px]]
{{nihongo|'''Tomozuna stable'''|友綱部屋|Tomozuna-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ''[[ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It has a long and prestigious history. The current Tomozuna stable was established in January 1961 by former ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Tomoegata]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Kabu.aspx?kabu=99|title = Tomozuna Kabu History}}</ref> As of January 2022, it has 11 wrestlers.

In April 2012, the stable absorbed seven wrestlers from [[Ōshima stable]], due to [[Asahikuni Masuo|Ōshima-''oyakata'']] reaching the mandatory retirement age of 65.<ref>{{cite web|script-title=ja:親方定年で大島部屋力士が友綱へ転属|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/sports/sumo/news/p-sp-tp3-20120325-922789.html|publisher=[[Nikkan Sports]]|accessdate=24 July 2014|language=Japanese|date=25 March 2012}}</ref> Among the wrestlers who transferred was former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Kyokutenhō Masaru|Kyokutenhō]], who one month later won his first ''[[yūshō]]'' (or tournament) for his new stable.<ref>{{cite web|title=Kyokutenho: the first Japanese yusho in six-plus years . . . sort of|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2012/05/29/sumo/kyokutenho-the-first-japanese-yusho-in-six-plus-years-sort-of/#.U9BghrGVpyI|publisher=[[The Japan Times]]|accessdate=24 July 2014|date=29 May 2012}}</ref> In February 2014, former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Kaiō Hiroyuki|Kaiō]] branched off and formed [[Asakayama stable]], taking two wrestlers from Tomozuna with him.<ref>{{cite web|script-title=ja:魁皇の浅香山部屋が地鎮祭「弟子のために」国技館至近|url=http://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2014/02/16/kiji/K20140216007601760.html|publisher=[[Sports Nippon]]|accessdate=17 May 2014|language=Japanese|date=16 February 2014}}</ref> In June 2017, Kyokutenhō became the 11th Tomozuna's owner, and the first [[Mongolia]]n born wrestler to take charge of a stable.<ref name="reuters">{{cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-japan-sumo-widerimage-idUSKBN1A32KN|title=Mongolian-born wrestler turned Japanese to get to grips with sumo|date=18 July 2017|publisher=Reuters|accessdate=20 July 2017}}</ref> He had retired two years earlier and inherited the Ōshima name, but rather than re-establish Ōshima stable, he chose to keep the Tomozuna name by swapping elder names with the previous head coach, former ''sekiwake'' [[Kaiki Nobuhide|Kaiki]], upon the latter reaching 65 years of age.

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable have taken ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 魁 (read: kai), in deference to their former head coach Kaiki. Examples Kaiō, Kaidō, Kainishiki and Kainowaka. Since absorbing Ōshima stable, they have also inherited wrestlers who use the character 旭 (read: asahi or kyoku), taken from Ōshima's former head coach [[Asahikuni]].

Tokiwayama stable

{{Nihongo|'''Tokiwayama stable'''|常盤山部屋|Tokiwayama-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Nishonoseki ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. As of January 2023 it had 9 wrestlers.

==History==
[[File:Tokiwayama_stable_2021.jpg|thumb|right|400px]]
[[File:Tokiwayama_stable_sign_2021.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]
It was founded as '''Chiganoura stable''' in September 2004 by former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Masudayama Yasuhito|Masudayama]], who branched off from [[Kasugano stable]] of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon'' at the unusually late age of 53, after he lost out to [[Tochinowaka Kiyotaka|Tochinowaka]] in his bid to take over Kasugano stable.<ref name="sumofan">{{cite web|url=http://www.sumofanmag.com/content/Issue_2/Heya_Peek.htm|title=Heya Peek:Chiganoura Beya|last=Gunning|first=John|date=August 2005|publisher=Sumo Fan Magazine|accessdate=24 October 2017}}</ref> He took four wrestlers with him from Kasugano stable, the last of whom, Burinosato, retired in March 2019. In April 2016 the former [[Takamisugi]] took over the running of the stable when ex-Masudayama reached the mandatory retirement age of 65, and aligned the stable with the [[Takanohana stable|Takanohana]] ''ichimon'', leaving the [[Dewanoumi stable|Dewanoumi]] ''ichimon''. The former Chiganoura changed to Tokiwayama and was re-employed by the stable as a consultant for five years. In June 2018 the Takanohana ''ichimon'' dissolved and Chiganoura joined the Ōnomatsu group, with ex-Masudayama choosing to be unaffiliated. In September, the stable joined the Nishonoseki group and on 1 October Chiganoura adopted the wrestlers and staff from the defunct [[Takanohana stable]] following the resignation of [[Takanohana Koji|Takanohana]] from the [[Japan Sumo Association]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/sumo-jsa-approves-takanohanas-retirement-transfer-of-stable/ar-BBNMiRV|title=SUMO/ JSA approves Takanohana's retirement, transfer of stable|date=1 October 2018|publisher=Asahi Shimbun|accessdate=3 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181003181749/https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/sumo-jsa-approves-takanohanas-retirement-transfer-of-stable/ar-BBNMiRV|archive-date=3 October 2018|url-status=dead}}</ref> In November [[Takakeishō]] won the top division championship in his first tournament for his new stable, and in March 2019 he was promoted to ''ōzeki''.<ref name="takakeisho"/> In November 2020, as former Masudayama's retirement approached, as part of a previous agreement, former Takamisugi and former Masudayama swapped back their elder names, and former Takamisugi changed the name of the stable to his original elder name, Tokiwayama.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/chiganoura_beya/status/1332089613213581313|title=2020 Nov 27 tweet from head of heya}}</ref>

The old premises are set to be used by [[Tatsunami stable]], with Chiganoura Oyakata continuing to live there until his consultancy period ends in November 2021 and he leaves the Sumo Association.

It was home to the only [[Hungary|Hungarian]] in professional sumo, [[Masutōō Akira|Masutōō]], who was on the podium at the 2004 Junior Sumo World Championships alongside [[Tochinoshin]], [[Gōeidō Gōtarō|Gōeidō]] and [[Kaisei Ichiro|Kaisei]] but did not progress beyond the ''[[makushita]]'' division in professional sumo.<ref name="takakeisho"/>

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 舛 (read: masu), in deference to their former coach and the stable's founder, the former Masudayama. Examples include Masunoshō, Masutoo and Masutenryū. However, when Masunoshō was promoted to the ''jūryō'' division after the September 2017 tournament his ''shikona'' was changed to Takanoshō, after the new head coach Takamisugi.

Tokitsukaze stable

2021-12-30T10:37:25Z

2003:6:133B:223C:686D:B4F9:8E0F:12CE:

[[File:Tokitsukaze Beya.jpg|thumb|right|280px|Entrance to Tokitsukaze Stable]]
[[File:2019 Tokitsukaze sign.jpg|thumb|right|220px]]
The {{nihongo|'''Tokitsukaze stable'''|時津風部屋|Tokitsukaze-beya}} is a stable of [[sumo]] wrestlers in Japan, one of the Tokitsukaze group of stables. It was founded in 1769 and was dominant during the [[Taishō period]].

In its modern form it dates from 1941 when it was established by [[Futabayama]], who was still an active wrestler at the time. It was known as Futabayama Dojo until it was re-named Tokitsukaze stable in November 1945 when Futabayama retired. (The stable has the names of both Futabayama and Tokitsukaze at its entrance.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/01/20/sumo/legendary-futabayama-set-standard-sumo-greatness/#.XicqD-SWyUk|title=Legendary Futabayama set standard for sumo greatness|last=Gunning|first=John|date=20 January 2020|accessdate=21 January 2020}}</ref>) Upon Futabayama's death in 1968 the former [[Kagamisato]] took charge for a short time, but Futabayama's widow wanted [[Yutakayama Katsuo]] to take over, which he did upon his retirement in 1969. He in turn passed control of the stable on to his successor [[Futatsuryū Jun'ichi|Futatsuryū]] in August 2002. As of January 2022 it had 17 active wrestlers, two of whom are ''[[sekitori]].''

The death of 17-year-old junior member Tokitaizan (real name Takashi Saito) in a [[Tokitsukaze stable hazing scandal|hazing scandal]] on June 26, 2007, eventually resulted in the dismissal and six years in prison for Futatsuryū.<ref>{{cite web|title=Former stable master gets six years for young wrestler's hazing death|publisher=[[The Japan Times]]|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20090530a3.html|date=30 May 2009|accessdate=2 August 2013}}</ref> This compelled [[Tokitsuumi]], a long time top division wrestler from the stable, to retire from active sumo and take over as the new head of the stable.<ref>{{cite web|title=Tokitsuumi replaces fired elder|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2007/10/10/sumo/tokitsuumi-replaces-fired-elder/#.UfteJW26V74|publisher=[[The Japan Times]]|accessdate=2 August 2013|date=10 October 2007}}</ref>

Tokitsuumi was asked by the [[Japan Sumo Association]] to retire in February 2021 after twice violating [[COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19]] safety protocols. Tokitsukaze stable was taken over by former ''maegashira'' [[Tosayutaka Yūya|Tosayutaka]].<ref name=kyodo220221>{{cite web |url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2021/02/22ef2d4b801d-sumo-tokitsukaze-asked-to-quit-after-breaking-covid-rules.html|title=Sumo: Tokitsukaze asked to quit after breaking COVID rules|date=22 February 2021|publisher=[[Kyodo News]]|access-date=22 February 2021}}</ref>

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable have taken ring names or [[shikona]] that begin with the character 時 (read: toki), meaning time, which is the first character in the stable's name, such as [[Tokitsunada]], [[Tokibayama]] and Tokitenku. However this has fallen out of favour in recent years with Tokisakae being the only active wrestler using this kanji as of 2019. A number of wrestlers have also included the character 豊 (read: yutaka) in their ''shikona'' in deference to the last ''ōzeki'' produced by the stable, Yutakayama Katsuo, and the successor to his ''shikona'', [[Yutakayama Hiromitsu]]. Examples include [[Yutakafuji]], [[Tosayutaka]] and the active wrestler [[Yutakayama Ryōta]].

{{nihongo|'''Tatsunami stable'''|立浪部屋|Tatsunami-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, formerly the head of the Tatsunami ''[[ichimon]]'' or group of stables. As of January 2022 it had 18 wrestlers. Previously situated in sumo's heartland of [[Ryōgoku]] nearby the [[Ryōgoku Kokugikan|Kokugikan]] stadium, it is now located in [[Ibaraki Prefecture]] and alongside [[Shikihide stable]] is one of the furthest from Ryōgoku.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2019/01/16/sumo/sumo-101-stable-locations-layout/|title=Sumo 101: Stable locations and layout|last=Gunning|first=John|date=16 January 2019|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=18 January 2019}}</ref> In April 2021 the stable announced it was moving to [[Taitō]], to occupy the premises previously used by [[Tokiwayama stable]].

==History==
The stable is one of the most prestigious in sumo. It was founded in 1876 by [[Onigazaki]],<ref name="Sharnoff">{{Cite book |author=Sharnoff, Lora |title=Grand Sumo|publisher=Weatherhill |year=1993 |isbn=0-8348-0283-X}}</ref> but the current incarnation dates from 1915. In the 1930s, led by former ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Midorishima]] (1878-1952), the stable produced the 35th ''[[Makuuchi#Yokozuna|yokozuna]]'' [[Futabayama]], the 36th ''yokozuna'' [[Haguroyama Masaji|Haguroyama]] and ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Nayoroiwa Shizuo|Nayoroiwa]],<ref name="Sharnoff"/> and ended the [[Dewanoumi stable]]'s long period of dominance in sumo. Futabayama left to found his own stable in 1941. After Haguroyama married the previous stablemaster's daughter, he became the new head in December 1952 while still an active ''yokozuna''. Haguroyama produced several strong wrestlers, including ''ōzeki'' [[Wakahaguro]] and ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Annenyama]].<ref name="Sharnoff"/> Annenyama in turn married Haguroyama's daughter and succeeded to the leadership of the stable upon his father-in-law's death in 1969.<ref name="Sharnoff"/>

Annenyama produced [[Asahikuni]], an ''ōzeki'' in the 1970s, and ''sekiwake'' [[Kurohimeyama]]. Asahikuni retired in 1979 and left to found [[Ōshima stable]] in 1980, despite his stablemaster's opposition to the move.<ref name="Sharnoff"/> By the early 1980s the strength of the stable had declined and it was without any ''[[sekitori]]'' until [[Koji Kitao|Kitao]] was promoted to ''[[jūryō]]'' in 1984.<ref name="Sharnoff"/> Kitao became the 60th ''yokozuna'' Futahaguro in 1986, the first grand champion the Tatsunami ''ichimon'' had produced in decades, but at the end of 1987 Anneneyama and Futahaguro had a row which ended with the ''yokozuna'' kicking the elderly chairman of the stable's supporter group and pushing his stablemaster's wife as he stormed out.<ref name="Sharnoff"/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1988/01/02/world/tokyo-journal-wrestler-fails-to-keep-hold-on-an-honorable-past.html|title=Tokyo Journal:Wrestler Fails to Keep Hold on an Honorable Past|last=Haberman|first=Hlyde|date=2 Jan 1988|work=New York Times|accessdate=6 November 2019}}</ref> Futahaguro was forced to leave the [[Sumo Association]] as a result.<ref name="Sharnoff"/>

In the early 1990s the stable produced top division wrestlers such as ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Daishōhō Masami|Daishōhō]] and ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Daishōyama Naoki|Daishōyama]], both amateur champions from [[Nihon University]]. [[Asahiyutaka]] of Ōshima stable married Annenyama's daughter in 1995 and became the new head of Tatusnami when Annenyama reached the mandatory retirement age of 65 in 1999. However the two had a falling out and after Asahiyutaka was divorced, Annenyama sued him for 175 million [[yen]] as Asahiyutaka had obtained the Tatsunami elder name for free instead of having to pay the market value,<ref>{{cite web|author=|title=Sumo head stung for elder rights|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/member/member.html?nn20030225a2.htm|publisher=[[Japan Times]]|date=2003-02-25|accessdate=2008-05-12}}</ref> although the award was reversed. Annenyama also attempted to evict Asahiyutaka from the stable premises.

In April 2011, the stable's last ''sekitori'' at that point, the [[Mongolian people|Mongolian]] wrestler [[Mōkonami Sakae|Mōkonami]], was forced to retire after being found guilty of [[Match-fixing in professional sumo|match-fixing]]. Tatsunami stayed five and a half years without any wrestlers in the top two professional divisions, before [[Meisei Chikara|Meisei]] was finally promoted to ''[[jūryō]]'' after the September 2016 tournament. Meisei made the top division in July 2018. Another notable member is [[Hanakaze Daisaku|Hanakaze]], who holds the distinction of having the longest career in the centuries long history of sumo, a career that began in 1986, one year before his current stablemaster.

The stable's success was reflected in its postwar status as the leading stable in its ''ichimon'' or group of stables, which was called Tatsunami-Isegahama ''ichimon'' until 2006, when it became simply Tatsunami ''ichimon'' (reflecting the decline of the old [[Isegahama stable]] under former ''ōzeki'' [[Kiyokuni]]'s leadership). However, in 2012, due to the head coach voting against the ''ichimon'''s will in the Sumo Association's board elections, Tatsunami stable moved to the Takanohana ''ichimon.''<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumoforum.net/forums/topic/29533-tatsunami-ichimon-no-more/#comment-219737|title=Tatsunami Ichimon-no more|date=10 April 2012|publisher=Sumo Forum|accessdate=28 September 2016}}</ref> Tatsunami ''Ichimon'' then renamed itself Isegahama ''Ichimon'' in January 2013. Tatsunami stable went independent in 2018, but after the Sumo Association indicated that stables must belong to an ''ichimon'',<ref>{{cite web|url=https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20180925/p2a/00m/0sp/015000c|title=Stablemaster Takanohana tenders resignation to Japan Sumo Association|date=25 September 2018|publisher=The Mainichi|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20180925134449/https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20180925/p2a/00m/0sp/015000c|archivedate=25 September 2018}}</ref> it aligned itself with the Dewanoumi group.

The stable's foreign recruit is [[Hōshōryū]], the Mongolian nephew of former ''yokozuna'' [[Asashōryū]], who joined the stable in November 2017 and made his first tournament appearance in January 2018. He became a ''sekitori'' in November 2019 and reached the top division in September 2020. The following tournament [[Akua Shōma|Akua]] became the fifth member of Tatsunami stable to reach the top division under the present stablemaster,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|title=2020 November Grand Sumo Tournament Banzuke Topics|work=Japan Sumo Association|accessdate=2 November 2020|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20201102190908/http://sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|archivedate=2 November 2020}}</ref> following [[Ōhinode Takaaki|Ōhinode]], Mōkonami, Meisei and Hoshōryu.

In July 2021 Meisei became the first Tatsunami stable wrestler to reach the ''[[komusubi]]'' rank since [[Tomonohana]] in 1994<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|title=2021 July Grand Sumo Tournament Banzuke Topics|work=Japan Sumo Association|access-date=25 June 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210625140100/https://sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|archive-date=25 June 2021}}</ref> and for the September 2021 tournament he became its first ''[[sekiwake]]'' since [[Koji Kitao|Kitao]] in 1985.

Tamanoi stable

[[File:Tamanoi Stable.JPG|thumb|right|280px]]
{{nihongo|'''Tamanoi stable'''|玉ノ井部屋|Tamanoi-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the [[Dewanoumi stable|Dewanoumi]] ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was set up in 1990 by former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Tochiazuma Tomoyori]], who branched off from [[Kasugano stable]].<ref name="Sharnoff">{{Cite book |author=Sharnoff, Lora |title=Grand Sumo|publisher=Weatherhill |year=1993 |isbn=0-8348-0283-X}}</ref> He coached his son, who also wrestled under the name Tochiazuma, to'' [[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' rank. Tamanoi reached retirement age in September 2009, and was succeeded by his son. As of January 2022, the stable had 23 wrestlers, two of them being a [[sekitori]].

The stable is based in Nishiarai in Tokyo's [[Adachi, Tokyo|Adachi]] ward, and built new premises in 2004, 10 minutes from the old location. In December 2011 Tamanoi-''oyakata'' and wrestlers from the stable assisted the police by starting street crime prevention patrols in the local area in the run up to the New Year celebrations.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://japantoday.com/category/crime/sumo-wrestler-crime-prevention-team-patrols-streets-of-tokyo|title=Sumo wrestler crime prevention team patrols streets of Tokyo|date=22 December 2011|publisher=Japan Today|access-date=3 August 2017}}</ref>

In September 2020 nineteen members of the stable tested positive for [[COVID-19]], after a lower ranked wrestler became ill. Every wrestler at the stable was prevented from participating in the September tournament.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://sports.yahoo.com/coronavirus-outbreak-hits-19-sumo-053748778.html|title=Coronavirus outbreak hits 19 at sumo stable in Japan|date=10 September 2020|work=Yahoo Sports/AFP|access-date=10 September 2020}}</ref>

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable have taken ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that include the character 東 (read: azuma or tō) meaning east, in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Tochiazuma, as well as his father, the founder. It can also be used as a prefix, as in Azumaryu and Azumasato, as well as a suffix as in Yoshiazuma and Fujiazuma.

==Owners==
*2009–Present: 13th Tamanoi Daisuke (''[[toshiyori#Ranking|fuku-riji]]'', former ''ōzeki'' [[Tochiazuma Daisuke]])

Kise stable (2003)

[[Image:Kise stable 2014.jpg|thumb|right|280px]]
{{Nihongo|'''Kise stable'''|木瀬部屋|Kise-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was established in its current form in December 2003 by former ''[[maegashira]]'' and [[Nihon University]] amateur champion [[Higonoumi Naoya|Higonoumi]], who branched off from [[Mihogaseki stable]]. The stable's first [[makuuchi|top division]] wrestler was [[Kiyoseumi Takayuki|Kiyoseumi]] in January 2008. Its foreign recruit, [[Georgia (country)|Georgian]] [[Gagamaru]], in May 2010 earned promotion to the top division. It is a popular destination for wrestlers with collegiate sumo experience like its stablemaster, and the retirement of Gagamaru in November 2020 opened up another spot for a foreigner.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/11/18/sumo/kotoshogiku-gagamaru-retire/|title=Popular rikishi Kotoshogiku and Gagamaru retire from sumo|last=Gunning|first=John|work=Japan Times|accessdate=19 November 2020}}</ref>

Following the demotion of Kise-''oyakata'' (or stablemaster) in May 2010 after a scandal involving the selling of tournament tickets to members of the [[yakuza]], Kise stable was dissolved with all 27 of its wrestlers moving to the affiliated [[Kitanoumi stable]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Kise wrestlers to join Kitanoumi stable|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/ss20100530a1.html|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=30 May 2010}}</ref> Kise was allowed to reestablish the stable in April 2012. All former members, as well as newcomers [[Jōkōryu Takayuki|Jōkōryu]] and Sasanoyama (now [[Daiseido Yoshitomo|Daiseidō]]), joined the reconstituted stable. Jōkōryu reached the rank of ''[[komusubi]]'' in 2014, but has since fallen greatly down the ranks due to injury, and Daiseidō in September 2017 became the eleventh wrestler from Kise to reach ''jūryō'' since its founding in 2003.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|title=2017 September Grand Sumo Tournament Banzuke Topics|publisher=Japan Sumo Association|accessdate=22 September 2017|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170922141059/http://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|archivedate=22 September 2017}}</ref> As of January 2022, it has 25 wrestlers, six of them are ''[[sekitori]]'' (salaried ranks).

Kise stable's first ''makuuchi'' championship was delivered by [[Tokushōryū Makoto|Tokushōryū]] in the January 2020 tournament. The 33-year-old won from the bottom-most ''makuuchi'' rank of ''[[makuuchi#Maegashira|maegashira]]'' 17, after spending all but one of the previous 12 tournaments in the ''jūryō'' division.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/01/193ba5ad3a3c-sumo-new-champ-tokushoryu-reeling-in-wake-of-big-win-sudden-stardom.html|title=Sumo: New champ Tokushoryu 'walking on clouds' after big win|date=27 January 2020|publisher=Kyodo News|access-date=27 January 2020}}</ref>

==Ring name conventions==
Some wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the characters 肥後 (read: higo), in honor of their coach and the stable's owner, the former Higonoumi. The best known is former ''jūryō'' wrestler Higonojō. Some other low-ranking members are Higoarashi, Higonoryū, and Higohikari.

{{nihongo|'''Takasago stable'''|髙砂部屋 or 高砂部屋|Takasago-beya}} is a [[heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Takasago group of stables. It is correctly written in Japanese as "髙砂部屋", but the first of these ''[[kanji]]'' is rare, and is more commonly written as "高砂部屋".

==History==
The stable was established by former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Takasago Uragorō]] as {{nihongo|Takasago Kaisei-Gumi|高砂改正組}} in 1873 and joined the Tokyo Sumo Association in 1878. Takasago stable has produced many successful wrestlers, including six ''[[yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' and the first non-Japanese ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'', American [[Konishiki]], as well as the 33rd [[Kimura Shōnosuke]], the ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#tate-gyōji|tate-gyōji]]'' or chief referee.

In February 2002, the stable merged with Wakamatsu stable, with Wakamatsu's coach, former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' Asashio, taking over.<ref>{{cite web|author=Newton, Clyde|title=Two Ozeki aiming to boost promotion hopes in Osaka|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/ss20020310a1.html|publisher=[[Japan Times]]|date=2002-03-10|access-date=2008-04-29}}</ref> Future ''yokozuna'' [[Asashōryū]] was among the wrestlers transferring over. The demotion of [[Asasekiryū Tarō|Asasekiryū]] to the ''[[makushita]]'' division for the January 2017 tournament saw the stable without any ''[[sekitori]]'' for the first time since 1878.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics|title=Banzuke Topics - Nihon Sumo Kyokai Official Grand Sumo Home Page|date=January 2017|publisher=Japan Sumo Association|access-date=12 January 2017}}</ref> However, at the end of that tournament [[Asanoyama Hideki|Asanoyama]] earned promotion to the ''[[jūryō]]'' division, ensuring ''sekitori'' representation once again from March. As of January 2022, it had 26 wrestlers. The former Asasekiryū took over from the former Asashio as head coach of the stable in November 2020.

In June 2021, ''ōzeki'' [[Asanoyama Hideki|Asanoyama]] was handed a one-year (six tournament) suspension for violating sumo protocols related to [[COVID-19]].<ref name=kyodo110621>{{cite web |url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2021/06/1d90a76ebb13-sumo-ozeki-asanoyama-gets-1-year-ban-for-breaking-coronavirus-rules.html|title=Sumo: Ozeki Asanoyama gets 1-year ban for breaking coronavirus rules|date=11 June 2021|publisher=Kyodo News|access-date=11 June 2021}}</ref> The following month, [[Asasekiryū Tarō|Takasago Oyakata]], Asanoyama and six lower-ranked ''[[rikishi]]'' in the stable all tested positive for COVID-19.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/202107300000873.html|title=大関朝乃山ら５人感染の高砂部屋で新たに１人、他部屋で１人感染 |date=30 July 2021|work=Nikkan Sports|access-date=30 July 2021|language=ja}}</ref>

==People==
===Ring name conventions===
Most wrestlers since the mid 1990s and all since 2003 at this stable have quickly taken ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 朝 (read: asa), meaning morning, in deference to their head coach, the former Asashio, as well as many of his predecessors who had the same ''shikona'' in their active years. For example, the wrestler formerly known as Tamaki changed his ''shikona'' to [[Asagyokusei]] when he was promoted to ''jūryō'' in July 2019.

Takadagawa stable

{{nihongo|'''Takadagawa stable'''|高田川部屋|Takadagawa-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki ''[[ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was formed in 1974 by former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Maenoyama]], and was originally in the Takasago group of stables, but was excommunicated from that group in 1998 due to disagreement over group nominations to the [[Japan Sumo Association]]'s board of directors. Maenoyama handed over control to former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Akinoshima]] in 2009, as he was approaching the mandatory retirement age. A series of wrestlers from [[Taiwan]] were recruited in the late 1980s. Later a [[Mongolia]]n, [[Maenoyu]], was at the stable from 2004 until 2007, but there have been no foreigners recruited since Maenoyu's retirement and the current stablemaster has indicated there are no plans to do in the immediate future.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/03/18/sumo/akinoshima-decorated-career-part-sumos-dominant-stable/#.XnOfKs5KiUk|title=Akinoshima had decorated career as part of sumo's dominant stable|last=Gunning|first=John|date=18 March 2020|work=Japan Times|accessdate=19 March 2020}}</ref>

The stable did not have any ''[[sekitori]]'' between [[Dairaido Taro|Dairaidō]]′s last appearance in ''[[jūryō]]'' in July 2006 and the promotion of [[Ryūden Gōshi|Ryūden]] in September 2012, where he lasted for only one tournament. In September 2014 [[Kagayaki Taishi|Kagayaki]] reached ''jūryō'', ending Takadagawa's ''sekitori'' drought. Kagayaki went on to reach the top ''[[makuuchi]]'' division in January 2016, the first Takadagawa wrestler to do so since [[Kenkō Satoshi|Kenkō]] in 1992, and Ryūden returned to ''jūryō'' in November 2016, reaching the top division himself in January 2018.

The new Takadagawa head ended the stable's nearly thirteen years of non-alignment with an ''ichimon'' in January 2011 when he was accepted into the Nishonoseki group. As of January 2022, it had 22 wrestlers.

On 10 April 2020, the Sumo Association announced that an undisclosed wrestler had tested positive for the [[Coronavirus disease 2019|coronavirus]]. It was later confirmed to be [[Shobushi Kanji|Shobushi]] of Takadagawa Stable, a ''sandanme'' wrestler who died from coronavirus complications on 13 May 2020.<ref name=kyodo130520A>{{cite web |url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/05/2710c4489399-breaking-news-sumo-wrestler-dies-after-being-infected-with-new-coronavirus.html|title=28-year-old sumo wrestler dies after coronavirus infection

==Ring name conventions==

Tagonoura stable (2013)

{{nihongo|'''Tagonoura stable'''|田子ノ浦部屋|Tagonoura-beya}}, formerly '''Naruto stable''' is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki group of stables.

The stable was established as Naruto stable, on 1 February 1989 by former ''[[yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Takanosato Toshihide]]. The stable's first ''[[sekitori]]'' was [[Takeshi Rikio|Rikiō]] in 1994. Four more, [[Wakanosato]], [[Takanowaka]], [[Takayasu Akira|Takayasu]] and [[Kisenosato]], have reached ''[[sekiwake]]'' rank, with Takayasu going on to reach the ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' rank, and the stable's first ''[[yokozuna]]'' being Kisenosato. It had a reputation for being a closed, family-knit stable, as Naruto did not allow his wrestlers to go out and train at other stables (which is unusual in sumo) or socialize with wrestlers from different stables.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2017/05/31/sumo/takayasus-rise-built-solid-family-support/#.WTAEEU2GPop|title=Takayasu’s rise built on solid family support|last=Gunning|first=John|author-link=John Gunning (journalist)|date=31 May 2017|publisher=[[The Japan Times]]|accessdate=1 June 2017}}</ref>

Naruto died suddenly on 7 November 2011. The stable's current master, former ''maegashira'' [[Takanotsuru]], changed to the Tagonoura ''[[toshiyori]]'' in December 2013 and renamed the stable accordingly.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.the-japan-news.com/news/article/0003745797|title=SUMO ABC (53) / A stable where notable rikishi were steeped in sumo’s fundamentals|last=Miki|first=Shuji|date=17 June 2017|publisher=The Japan News|accessdate=19 June 2017}}</ref> Upon changing the stable name, the stable was also moved to the [[Ryōgoku]] area from [[Matsudo]], Chiba. It has no connection to the defunct [[Tagonoura stable (2000)|Tagonoura stable]] established by the late [[Kushimaumi]]. As of January 2022 it had 14 wrestlers.

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable have taken ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that end with the character 里 (read: sato), meaning village or native place, in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the deceased former Takanosato.

Shikihide Oyakata was in poor health for much of 2020, and his wife in her role as ''okamisan'' took an increasing role in running the stable, even overseeing training. Half the stable's wrestlers ran away in early August 2020, complaining about her strict behavior and invasions of their privacy.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/202008040001183.html|title=おかみさんがモラハラ？式秀部屋の力士９人集団脱走|work=Nikkan Sports|date=5 August 2020|accessdate=6 August 2020}}</ref> They were persuaded to return, and although no violence was involved the Sumo Association's compliance committee is continuing to investigate and interview the wrestlers involved.

==Ring name conventions==
Some wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that end with the character 桜 (read: sakura or zakura), in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Kitazakura. Examples include Wakatozakura, Abezakura, and [[Shonanzakura]]. The last named (previously known as Hattorizakura) has attracted some attention for his persistence in the face of an almost complete lack of success: as of January 2020, Shonanzakura had recorded only three wins in 180 bouts,<ref name="gunning0122"/> and once had to be told by the ringside judges to fight properly after he repeatedly tried to lose to an opponent by deliberately falling down without being touched.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2019/03/22/sumo/sumo-101-consistent-losers/|title=Sumo 101: Consistent losers|last=Gunning|first=John|date=22 March 2019|work=Japan Times|accessdate=10 August 2020}}</ref>

'''Shibatayama Stable''' (Japanese: '''芝田山部屋''', ''Shibatayama-beya'') is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the [[Nishonoseki Stable|Nishonoseki]] [[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|group of stables]]. It was founded in 1999 by former ''[[yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Ōnokuni Yasushi|Ōnokuni]]. Located in [[Suginami]], it is the only stable to be situated in the western half of [[Tokyo]] as of 2020.<ref name="gunning0311">{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/03/11/sumo/former-yokozuna-onokuni-now-acts-jsas-public-face/#.XmkT6-SWyUm|last=Gunning|first=John|title=Former yokozuna Onokuni now acts as JSA's public face|date=11 March 2020|work=Japan Times|accessdate=11 March 2020}}</ref>

[[Mongolia]]n born {{Interlanguage link multi|Daiyubu Ryusen|ja|3=大勇武龍泉|lt=Daiyubu}} became the stable's first wrestler to earn promotion to the ''[[jūryō]]'' division, in March 2008, but he only lasted one tournament in the division and left sumo in acrimonious circumstances in 2010, claiming in a lawsuit that was eventually settled out of court that he had been forced to retire against his will. In February 2013 the stable absorbed its parent [[Hanaregoma stable]] due to the imminent retirement of its stablemaster, former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Kaiketsu Masateru|Kaiketsu]]. Among the wrestlers transferring was another Mongolian, {{Interlanguage link multi|Sakigake Takeshi|ja|3=魁猛|lt=Sakigake}}, who was ranked in ''jūryō'' for five tournaments between January 2014 and January 2015. He remains the most senior wrestler at the stable and in January 2020 returned to ''jūryō'' after 30 tournaments away.

In March 2016 Shibatayama and wrestler [[Komatokuni Joji|Komatokuni]] were ordered by the [[Tokyo District Court]] to pay 32.4 million [[yen]] (287,500 [[USD]]) in compensation to a former wrestler who the court ruled had faced "daily abuse" since joining in 2008 and had to undergo four surgeries for a [[detached retina]], eventually losing sight in the eye in 2013.<ref name="abuse">{{cite web|url=https://news.yahoo.com/sumo-wrestler-stable-master-pay-damages-over-abuse-085836745.html|title=Sumo wrestler and stable master 'to pay damages over abuse'|date=24 March 2016|publisher=Yahoo!

It was established in its modern form on 25 May 1998 by former ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Ryōgoku Kajinosuke IV|Ryōgoku]], who branched off from Dewanoumi stable. It was originally called Nakadachi stable, but when Sakaigawa-''oykakata'' (the 50th ''[[Yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Sadanoyama]]) reached the [[Japan Sumo Association]]'s mandatory retirement age in February 2003, he passed on the Sakaigawa name, and the stable was renamed. As of January 2022, it had 23 wrestlers, with three of them ranked in the two professional divisions, making it one of the more successful stables.

In June 2020 wrestlers from the stable were among a group of around 20 people who helped rescue a woman from drowning in a nearby river in an apparent [[suicide attempt]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tokyoreporter.com/japan/sumo-wrestlers-rescue-woman-who-plunged-into-river-in-attempted-suicide/|title=Sumo wrestlers rescue woman who plunged into river in suicide attempt|date=11 June 2020|work=[[Tokyo Reporter]]|accessdate=12 June 2020}}</ref>

[[Image:Sadogatake stable 2014.JPG|thumb|right|280px]]

{{nihongo|'''Sadogatake stable'''|佐渡ヶ嶽部屋|Sadogatake-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki group of stables. In its modern form it dates from September 1955, when it was set up by former ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Kotonishiki Noboru]]. Former ''[[yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Kotozakura]] took over the running of the stable in 1974 following Kotonishiki's death. The stable is located in [[Matsudo]], [[Chiba Prefecture|Chiba]] prefecture. Over the next thirty years the stable produced a string of top division wrestlers. Kotozakura stood down in November 2005, handing the stable over to his son-in-law, former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Kotonowaka]].

Between September 2007 and July 2010, it became the first stable since [[Fujishima stable (2010)|Musashigawa stable]] in 2001 to have two wrestlers ranked at ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' simultaneously, with [[Kotomitsuki]] and [[Kotoōshū]]. It happened again between November 2011 and November 2013 with Kotoōshū and [[Kotoshōgiku]]. As of January 2022 the stable has 26 wrestlers, four of them being ''[[sekitori]].'' In March 2020 Sadogatake Oyakata's son, who also goes by the name of Kotonowaka, reached the top ''[[makuuchi]]'' division. On the May 2020 ''[[banzuke]]'' all five ''sekitori'' were ranked in the top division, although none were above ''[[maegashira]]'' 13. The most the stable has ever had in ''makuuchi'' simultaneously is seven, in November 1992 and January 1993.

In January 2021 junior wrestler Kotokantetsu retired and publicly criticized Sadogatake Oyakata for not supporting him during his sumo career and not allowing him to sit out that month's ''[[honbasho]]'' despite his fears of contracting [[COVID-19]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2021/01/13/sumo/sumo-stables-scrutiny-wrestlers-retirement/|title=Sumo stables deserve more scrutiny after wrestler's shock retirement|last=Gunning|first=John|date=13 January 2021|work=Japan Times|accessdate=5 February 2021}}</ref>

==Ring name conventions==

Ōtake stable

{{Refimprove|date=October 2010}}
{{nihongo|'''Ōtake stable'''|大嶽部屋|Ōtake-beya}} is a [[heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki group of stables.

It was set up in 1971, as '''Taihō stable''', by the 48th [[Yokozuna (sumo)|''yokozuna'']] [[Taihō Kōki]] on his retirement from wrestling. The first ''[[sekitori]]'' he produced was [[Shishihō Yoshimasa|Shishihō]] in 1977. His most successful wrestler was [[Ōzutsu Takeshi|Ōzutsu]], who reached the rank of ''[[sekiwake]].'' In May 1981 Taihō was persuaded by the editor of the English language sumo magazine ''[[Sumo World]]'' to accept a foreign wrestler, Philip Smoak of [[Texas]], who was with the stable for just two months.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2018/08/08/sumo/entering-sumo-world-not-something-taken-lightly/#.W5gYAeSWymQ|title=Entering sumo world not something to be taken lightly|last=Gunning|first=John|date=8 August 2018|accessdate=11 September 2018}}</ref> Taihō passed control of the stable on to his son-in-law Ōtake (former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Takatōriki]]) in 2003, as he was approaching the age for mandatory retirement from the [[Japan Sumo Association]]. As the name of Taihō was an ''ichidai-toshiyori'' (one-generation [[toshiyori|elder]] name) it could not be passed on, so the stable was re-named Ōtake. In 2004 the Russian [[Rohō Yukio|Rohō]] reached the top division, but was dismissed from sumo in September 2008 after failing a test for [[cannabis]].

In January 2010 the stable, along with the [[Takanohana stable|Takanohana]], [[Ōnomatsu stable|Ōnomatsu]] and [[Magaki stable]], was forced to leave the Nishonoseki ''[[ichimon]]'' after [[Takanohana Kōji|Takanohana]] declared his intention to run as an unofficial candidate in the elections to the [[Japan Sumo Association|Sumo Association]]'s board of directors. The ejected stables formed their own group, which gained ''ichimon'' status in 2014.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100120p2a00m0na011000c.html|title=Takanohana speaks out after six supporters kicked out of sumo faction|date=20 January 2010|publisher=[[Mainichi Daily News]]|accessdate=1 August 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100124093808/http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100120p2a00m0na011000c.html| archive-date= 24 January 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/sports/sumo/news/p-sp-tp3-20140524-1306036.html|title=Takanohana group certified as ichimon |date=24 May 2014|publisher=[[Nikkan Sports]]|accessdate=12 March 2015 }}</ref> In 2018 the stable joined the Nishonoseki group.

Following the dismissal of the former Takatōriki for his involvement in a scandal over illegal betting, in July 2010 the stable was taken over by the former ''[[jūryō]]'' wrestler [[Dairyū Tadahiro|Dairyū]], who had been working as a coach at the stable under the name Futagoyama. Its most famous recent wrestler is [[Ōsunaarashi Kintarō|Ōsunaarashi]], who was forced to retire in March 2018 after being caught driving without a license. As of January 2022, the stable had 17 active wrestlers.

The stable still displays the red [[Glossary of sumo terms#tsuna|tsuna]] that Taihō Oyakata wore while performing his ''[[kanreki dohyo-iri]]'' ceremony in 2000.<ref name="gunning0807">{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/07/08/sumo/sumos-unique-kanreki-ceremonies-provide-windows-past/|title=Sumo's unique kanreki ceremonies provide windows into past|last=Gunning|first=John|date=8 July 2020|work=Japan Times|accessdate=8 July 2020}}</ref>

In January 2018 the grandson of Taihō, Naya Konosuke, joined the stable.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2018/04/18/sumo/family-legacy-weighs-heavily-young-sumo-prospects/#.W1douOSWyUk|title=Family legacy weighs heavily on young sumo prospects|date=18 April 2018|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=24 July 2018}}</ref> Another grandson, Kosei, joined in November 2019. Naya was promoted to ''jūryō'' for the January 2021 tournament and changed his name to [[Ōhō Konosuke|Ōhō]].

Many wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that include the character 大 (read: ō or dai), which is used in the first character of the stable's name and also is in deference to the last two owners, whose former ''shikona'' also included this character. Examples of wrestlers who have incorporated this include Ōsunaarashi, Ōsuzuki, Daiseiryu and Dairyuki.

{{nihongo|'''Ōnomatsu stable'''|阿武松部屋|Ōnomatsu-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Nishonoseki ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was founded in its modern form on 1 October 1994 by [[Masurao Hiroo]], who branched off from the now defunct [[Oshiogawa stable]]. His first wrestler to reach the top ''[[makuuchi]]'' division was [[Katayama Shinji|Katayama]] in 2005. The now retired [[Wakakōyū Masaya|Wakakōyū]] reached ''[[komusubi]]'' in 2012, as did [[Ōnoshō Fumiya|Ōnoshō]] in 2017. The stable's most successful foreign recruit has been the Russian former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Amuuru Mitsuhiro|Amūru]], who retired in 2018.

In January 2010 the stable, along with the [[Takanohana stable|Takanohana]], [[Otake stable|Ōtake]] and [[Magaki stable]], was forced to leave the Nishonoseki ''ichimon'' after former ''yokozuna'' [[Takanohana]] declared his intention to run as an unofficial candidate in the elections to the [[Japan Sumo Association|Sumo Association]]'s board of directors. The ejected stables formed their own group, which gained ''ichimon'' status of its own in 2014.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100120p2a00m0na011000c.html|title=Takanohana speaks out after six supporters kicked out of sumo faction|date=20 January 2010|publisher=[[Mainichi Daily News]]|accessdate=1 August 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100124093808/http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100120p2a00m0na011000c.html| archive-date= 24 January 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/sports/sumo/news/p-sp-tp3-20140524-1306036.html|title=Takanohana group certified as ichimon |date=24 May 2014|publisher=[[Nikkan Sports]]|accessdate=12 March 2015 }}</ref> This was dissolved in 2018, with the Ōnomatsu, Ōtake and [[Chiganoura stable|Chiganoura]] stables briefly forming Ōnomatsu ''ichimon'' before aligning themselves once again with the Nishonoseki group.

Ex-Masurao resigned from the Japan Sumo Association for health reasons on 26 September 2019 and was replaced by the former ''maegashira'' [[Daidō Kenji|Daidō]]. As of January 2022, the stable had 14 wrestlers.

Initially the stable had a policy of not accepting foreign born wrestlers or college recruits, but this was waived when [[Chuo University]] graduate [[Takekaze]] personally asked to join in 2002. Their first foreigner was the [[Mongolia]]n [[Hoshikaze]], who joined in the same year and eventually reached ''[[jūryō]]'' but was thrown out of sumo after the [[Match-fixing in professional sumo#2011 investigation|2011 match-fixing scandal]]. The stable absorbed [[Oshiogawa stable]] in 2005 ahead of the retirement of [[Daikirin|Oshiogawa-''oyakata'']], with [[Wakakirin]] and [[Wakatoba]] among the wrestlers transferring over. As of January 2022, it has 14 wrestlers.

'''Naruto stable''' (鳴戸部屋 Naruto-beya) is a [[heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Nishonoseki ''[[ichimon]]'' or group of stables, and founded by former sumo wrestler [[Kotoōshū Katsunori]] on 1 April 2017.<ref name="Bulgarian"/>

==History==
Naruto stable was established on 1 April 2017 by the [[Bulgaria]]n-born former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Kotoōshū Katsunori]], who branched out from [[Sadogatake stable]]. It is based in [[Sumida, Tokyo]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2019/05/03/sumo/pictures-visit-naruto-beya/|title=In pictures: A visit to Naruto Beya|date=3 May 2019|work=Japan Times|accessdate=7 July 2020}}</ref> One of the stable's early recruits was also a Bulgarian – former junior wrestling champion [[Ventsislav Katsarov]] (Torakio Daiki) who retired in April 2019 and returned to Bulgaria.<ref name="Bulgarian">{{cite web|url=http://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20170402/p2g/00m/0sp/008000c|title=Sumo: Former Bulgarian ozeki Kotooshu opens new stable|date=2 April 2017|publisher=The Manichi|accessdate=5 April 2017}}</ref> The opening ceremony of the stable was attended by one hundred people including Kotoōshū's former stablemate [[Kotoshōgiku Kazuhiro|Kotoshōgiku]].<ref name="profile">{{cite web|url=http://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20170404/p2a/00m/0na/011000c|title=Profile: Former ozeki Kotooshu, first European-born sumo stablemaster in Japan|date=4 April 2017|publisher=The Mainichi|accessdate=5 April 2017}}</ref> Kotoōshū commented, "I want to nurture a wrestler who will eclipse me."<ref name="profile"/> As of January 2022 it has 16 wrestlers.

Kotoōshū became a naturalized [[Japanese citizens|Japanese citizen]] two months after his retirement in March 2014. His official name is Andō Karoyan. He is the first European-born stablemaster.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2017/04/01/sumo/ex-ozeki-kotooshu-opens-stable/#.WOUDQGczXoo|title=Ex-ozeki Kotooshu opens own stable|date=1 April 2017|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=5 April 2017}}</ref><ref name="Bulgarian"/> He is also only the third foreign-born wrestler to open his own stable after [[Takamiyama]] and [[Musashimaru]].<ref>Tomozuna Oyakata (the Mongolian born [[Kyokutenho]]) is also a stablemaster, but inherited an existing stable rather than building a new one.</ref>

According to a report in May 2018, some wrestlers said that they chose Naruto stable because they had the most information when they searched the internet.<ref>[https://www.nikkansports.com/battle/column/sumo/news/201805210000414.html ネット情報発信量が多いから「鳴戸部屋」] 日刊スポーツ 2018年5月22日10時0分（日刊スポーツ新聞社、2019年2月18日閲覧）</ref> Naruto stable is not related to [[Tagonoura stable (2013)|Tagonoura stable]] which had the same name until 2013.

Naruto Oyakata suspended one of his wrestlers (reported to be a 20 year old ''[[sandanme]]'' level rikishi) from the January 2019 tournament after it emerged he had choked a more junior wrestler as a punishment.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2019/01/31/sumo/apprentice-wrestler-choked-bullied-kotooshu-run-stable/#.XFOHlBZOmEcT|title=Apprentice wrestler choked, bullied at Kotooshu-run stable|date=31 January 2019|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=31 January 2019}}</ref> This is the first time the Compliance Committee and the Anti-Violence Provisions, which were established in December 2018, were applied. On February 19, 2019, an apology statement was posted on the official Twitter of Naruto stable ''"To all of you who always support us.

We will reflect firmly and take the disposition of the Sumo Association seriously, and will provide guidance and supervision to prevent this from happening in the future."''<ref>{{Cite web|title=いつも応援して頂いているみなさまへこのたびは部屋で起きた問題について、多大なるご心配をおかけし大変申し訳ございませんでした。しっかりと反省し、また相撲協会からの処分を真摯に受け止め、今後このようなことを起こさないよう指導、監督していきます。|url=https://twitter.com/NARUTOBEYAteam/status/1097856305769852928|website=@NARUTOBEYAteam|date=2019-02-19|accessdate=2019-02-22|language=ja|last=鳴戸部屋|publisher=}}</ref> and the official blog of Master Naruto.<ref>{{Cite web|title=鳴戸勝紀（元大関琴欧洲）『いつも応援して頂いているみなさまへ』|url=https://ameblo.jp/kotooshu-naruto/entry-12441326744.html|website=鳴戸勝紀（元大関琴欧洲）オフィシャルブログ Powered by Ameba(2019年2月19日)|accessdate=2019-02-22|language=ja|publisher=}}</ref>

[[Image:Miyagino Beya 2011.JPG|thumbnail|right|280px]]
{{nihongo|'''Miyagino stable'''|宮城野部屋|Miyagino-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was founded by the 43rd ''[[Yokozuna (sumo)|yokozuna]]'' [[Yoshibayama]] as ''Yoshibayama dōjō'' while he was still an active wrestler, before changing to its current name in 1960.<ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Yoshibayama Junnosuke Kabu History | publisher=Sumo Reference | url=http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Kabu.aspx?rikishi=3879 | date= | accessdate=2012-10-01}}</ref>

In August 2004 former ''[[jūryō]]'' division wrestler [[Kanechika]] took over in controversial circumstances from former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Chikubayama]], who had been in charge since 1989. Unusually, the new stablemaster was from a different ''ichimon'' (Kanechika belonged to [[Kitanoumi stable]], part of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon'', in his days as an active wrestler). Kanechika was able to take control of the stable because he married one of the daughters of the 9th Miyagino's widow, who owned the ''[[toshiyori]]'' name, which Chikubayama was only borrowing, and was adopted by her as her son. Chikubayama, who had guided future ''yokozuna'' [[Hakuhō Shō|Hakuhō]] to the top division, was able to stay on as a coach in the stable by acquiring the Kumagatani name.<ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Kumagatani Kabu History | publisher=Sumo Reference | url=http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Kabu.aspx?kabu=41 | date= | accessdate=2012-10-01}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Miyagino Kabu History | publisher=Sumo Reference | url=http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Kabu.aspx?kabu=51 | date= | accessdate=2012-10-01}}</ref> However, in December 2010 he regained control of the Miyagino name and stable after Kanechika was disciplined by the Sumo Association for being caught on tape discussing [[match-fixing]].<ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Hakuho's stable elder questioned | publisher=[[The Japan Times]] | url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/text/ss20070531a2.html | date=2007-05-31 | accessdate=2012-10-01}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Stablemaster bout-rigging claim hit | publisher=[[The Japan Times]] | url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/text/nn20101225b3.html | date=2010-12-25 | accessdate=2012-10-01}}</ref> As of January 2021, the stable had 16 wrestlers.<ref>{{cite web | author= | title=Sumo Beya Guide - Miyagino Beya | publisher=Nihon Sumo Kyokai | url=http://sumo.or.jp/EnSumoDataSumoBeya/detail/?id=9 | date=2017-07-20 | accessdate=2017-07-20}}</ref>

In July 2021 he won the ''[[Professional sumo divisions#Makushita|makushita]]'' championship and was promoted to ''[[Professional sumo divisions#Jūryō|jūryō]]''.

{{nihongo|'''Minato stable'''|湊部屋|Minato-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, formerly part of the Tokitsukaze [[ichimon]] or group of stables. It was founded in 1982 by former ''[[komusubi]]'' [[Yutakayama Hiromitsu|Yutakayama]], who branched off from [[Tokitsukaze stable]].

In July 2010 Minato and Tatsutagawa swapped roles. In the same month the Chinese wrestler [[Nakanokuni]] earned promotion to the ''[[jūryō]]'' division. In December 2017 Minato Oyakata left the Tokitsukaze ichimon, leaving the stable unaffiliated to any group.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/sumo/20171222-OHT1T50043.html|script-title=ja:錣山親方ら３親方、時津風一門を離脱…理事選は無所属で投票|date=22 December 2017|publisher=Hochi|language=ja|access-date=12 January 2018}}</ref> As of January 2022, it had 9 wrestlers.

Many wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that include the character 湊 (read: minato), which is the first character in the stable name, and which is also in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Minatofuji. It can be used as a prefix, as in Minatoryū and Minatoshō, or as a suffix, as in Hamaminato and Haruminato.

In the past wrestlers at this stable took ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that began with the character 星 (read: hoshi), meaning star, in deference to two of their former owners, but many now use 霧 (read: kiri), meaning fog or mist, after the current owner Kirishima, such as Kiribayama, Kirinoryu and Kirinofuji.

[[Image:Kokonoe stable 2014.JPG|thumb|right|280px]]
{{Nihongo|'''Kokonoe stable'''|九重部屋|Kokonoe beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, one of the Takasago group of stables. It was formed in 1967 and until 2021 was located in Ishiwara, [[Sumida, Tokyo]]. As of January 2022 it had 27 sumo wrestlers, six of whom were of ''[[sekitori]]'' rank.<ref name="chiyotaikai">{{cite web|url=http://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2016/08/03/sumo/chiyotaikai-succeeds-chiyonofuji-as-stablemaster/#.V6Hrv032Yy8|title=Chiyotaikai succeeds Chiyonofuji as stablemaster|date=3 August 2016|publisher=Japan Times|access-date=3 August 2016}}</ref> It is the most successful stable in terms of total ''[[yūshō]]'' won by its wrestlers, with 52.<ref name="chiyotaikai"/>

==History==
Former ''[[makuuchi#Yokozuna|yokozuna]]'' [[Chiyonoyama Masanobu|Chiyonoyama]] of [[Dewanoumi stable]] had wanted to succeed to the Dewanoumi name, but the then Dewanoumi stablemaster (former wrestler [[Dewanohana Kuniichi|Dewanohana]]) had already decided to pass the name to former ''yokozuna'' [[Sadanoyama Shinmatsu|Sadanoyama]]. Accordingly, in January 1967, he set up his own stable, taking with him, amongst others, then ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Kitanofuji Katsuaki|Kitanofuji]] and attaching the new stable to the Takasago group of stables.

After Chiyonoyama died in 1977, Kitanofuji, who had already revived [[Izutsu stable]], became the 11th Kokonoe-''oyakata'', merging his stable with Kokonoe's and giving up the Izutzu elder name. He raised [[Chiyonofuji Mitsugu|Chiyonofuji]], then a ''[[makuuchi]]'' wrestler, to the great ''yokozuna'' he became. Later he also saw [[Hokutoumi Nobuyoshi|Hokutoumi]] become a ''yokozuna''. [[Takanofuji]] and [[Fujinoshin]] also reached the top division.

In 1992, the year after Chiyonofuji retired from the ring, Kitanofuji handed over the stable to him. Chiyonofuji and Kitanofuji swapped names, Chiyonofuji becoming [[Kokonoe-oyakata|Kokonoe-''oyakata'']] and gaining control of the stable, whilst Kitanofuji became Jinmaku-''oyakata'', attached to [[Hakkaku stable]], set up by the former Hokutoumi in 1993. In the early 1990s Kokonoe stable was one of the largest in sumo but had only one ''[[sekitori]]'', [[Tomoefuji]]. Kokonoe eventually produced [[Chiyotenzan]], briefly a ''[[komusubi]]'' in 1999, and long serving ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Chiyotaikai]] (1999–2009), his most successful wrestler. Following the retirements of Chiyotaikai in January 2010 and [[Chiyohakuhō Daiki|Chiyohakuhō]] in April 2011, the stable had no ''sekitori'' for a short time, but [[Chiyonokuni]] reached ''[[jūryō]]'' in July 2011 and the top division in January 2012. [[Chiyotairyū Hidemasa|Chiyotairyū]] followed afterwards and reached ''makuuchi'' in May 2012. By March 2014, Kokonoe stable was one of the most successful stables in sumo, with three men (Chiyotairyū, [[Chiyoōtori]] and [[Chiyomaru]]) in the top division and two (Chiyonokuni and [[Chiyono-ō]]) in ''jūryō''. In January 2016 the stable moved up to six ''sekitori'' with the promotion of [[Chiyoshōma Fujio|Chiyoshōma]], the most of any stable. As of September 2020 it remains at six, now level with [[Kise stable (2003)|Kise]] and one behind new leader [[Oitekaze stable|Oitekaze]].

Chiyonofuji died in July 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20160801/p2g/00m/0sp/070000c|title=Sumo: Wrestlers pay tribute following Chiyonofuji's early death|date=1 August 2016|publisher=The Mainichi|access-date=2 August 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160807092124/http://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20160801/p2g/00m/0sp/070000c|archive-date=7 August 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref> Sanoyama-''oyakata'' (the former Chiyotaikai) succeeded him as the Kokonoe stablemaster.<ref name="chiyotaikai"/>

In February 2021 the stable moved to new premises in Okudo, [[Katsushika]] ward.

==Ring name conventions==
Traditionally many wrestlers at this stable, often on reaching the ''[[sandanme]]'' division, take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the characters 千代 (read: chiyo), meaning "a thousand generations", in deference to the founder, Chiyonoyama and also his later successor Chiyonofuji. As of March 2018, all wrestlers at the stable, including those in the bottom two divisions, have this prefix.

Kise stable (2003)

[[Image:Kise stable 2014.jpg|thumb|right|280px]]
{{Nihongo|'''Kise stable'''|木瀬部屋|Kise-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was established in its current form in December 2003 by former ''[[maegashira]]'' and [[Nihon University]] amateur champion [[Higonoumi Naoya|Higonoumi]], who branched off from [[Mihogaseki stable]]. The stable's first [[makuuchi|top division]] wrestler was [[Kiyoseumi Takayuki|Kiyoseumi]] in January 2008. Its foreign recruit, [[Georgia (country)|Georgian]] [[Gagamaru]], in May 2010 earned promotion to the top division. It is a popular destination for wrestlers with collegiate sumo experience like its stablemaster, and the retirement of Gagamaru in November 2020 opened up another spot for a foreigner.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2020/11/18/sumo/kotoshogiku-gagamaru-retire/|title=Popular rikishi Kotoshogiku and Gagamaru retire from sumo|last=Gunning|first=John|work=Japan Times|accessdate=19 November 2020}}</ref>

Following the demotion of Kise-''oyakata'' (or stablemaster) in May 2010 after a scandal involving the selling of tournament tickets to members of the [[yakuza]], Kise stable was dissolved with all 27 of its wrestlers moving to the affiliated [[Kitanoumi stable]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Kise wrestlers to join Kitanoumi stable|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/ss20100530a1.html|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=30 May 2010}}</ref> Kise was allowed to reestablish the stable in April 2012. All former members, as well as newcomers [[Jōkōryu Takayuki|Jōkōryu]] and Sasanoyama (now [[Daiseido Yoshitomo|Daiseidō]]), joined the reconstituted stable. Jōkōryu reached the rank of ''[[komusubi]]'' in 2014, but has since fallen greatly down the ranks due to injury, and Daiseidō in September 2017 became the eleventh wrestler from Kise to reach ''jūryō'' since its founding in 2003.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|title=2017 September Grand Sumo Tournament Banzuke Topics|publisher=Japan Sumo Association|accessdate=22 September 2017|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170922141059/http://www.sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoTopics/banzuke_topics/|archivedate=22 September 2017}}</ref> As of January 2022, it has 25 wrestlers, making it one of the largest in sumo; six of them are ''[[sekitori]]'' (salaried ranks).

Kise stable's first ''makuuchi'' championship was delivered by [[Tokushōryū Makoto|Tokushōryū]] in the January 2020 tournament. The 33-year-old won from the bottom-most ''makuuchi'' rank of ''[[makuuchi#Maegashira|maegashira]]'' 17, after spending all but one of the previous 12 tournaments in the ''jūryō'' division.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2020/01/193ba5ad3a3c-sumo-new-champ-tokushoryu-reeling-in-wake-of-big-win-sudden-stardom.html|title=Sumo: New champ Tokushoryu 'walking on clouds' after big win|date=27 January 2020|publisher=Kyodo News|access-date=27 January 2020}}</ref>

==Ring name conventions==
Some wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the characters 肥後 (read: higo), in honor of their coach and the stable's owner, the former Higonoumi. The best known is former ''jūryō'' wrestler Higonojō. Some other low-ranking members are Higoarashi, Higonoryū, and Higohikari.

{{Nihongo|'''Kasugano stable'''|春日野部屋|Kasugano-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. As of January 2022 it had 18 wrestlers. It has been led by former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Tochinowaka Kiyotaka]] since 2003.

The stable absorbed [[Mihogaseki stable]] in 2013 when its stablemaster (former ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ōzeki]]'' [[Masuiyama Daishirō II]]) reached the mandatory retirement age.

Kasugano Oyakata was warned by the Sumo Association in 2011 after he beat three of his charges with a golf club for breaking a curfew.<ref name=beating>{{cite web|title=Sumo stablemaster Kasugano reprimanded for beating wrestlers|url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20111019p2g00m0sp125000c.html|publisher=[[Mainichi Daily News]]|archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/62bBEIyix?url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20111019p2g00m0sp125000c.html|archive-date=21 October 2011|date=21 October 2011|access-date=25 January 2018|url-status=dead}}</ref> In a separate case, a junior wrestler was convicted in 2014 of an assault on another wrestler and given a three year jail sentence, suspended for four years.

Many wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 栃 (read: tochi), in deference to the long line of owners who have used this character in their ''shikona''. It originally referred to [[Tochigi Prefecture]], where Tochigiyama came from, but subsequent owners were not from there and the prefix no longer has a geographical meaning.<ref name="Sharnoff"/>

{{Nihongo|'''Isenoumi stable'''|伊勢ノ海部屋|Isenoumi-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Tokitsukaze ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. Its current head coach is former [[maegashira]] [[Kitakachidoki Hayato|Kitakachidoki]]. As of January 2022 it had 12 wrestlers.

==History==
The name of Isenoumi stable relates to one of the oldest [[toshiyori|elder names]] in sumo, dating back to the mid-eighteenth century.<ref name="Sharnoff">{{Cite book |author=Sharnoff, Lora |title=Grand Sumo|publisher=Weatherhill |year=1993 |isbn=0-8348-0283-X}}</ref> The legendary [[Tanikaze Kajinosuke|Tanikaze]], one of the first ''[[Makuuchi#Yokozuna|yokozuna]]'', and his protégé [[Raiden Tameemon|Raiden]], arguably the greatest ''[[rikishi]]'' ever, were both members of the first stable to be named Isenoumi. Its current incarnation, however, dates from 1949. In the 1960s the stable produced ''yokozuna'' [[Kashiwado Tsuyoshi|Kashiwado]], who upon his retirement left to found [[Kagamiyama stable]] in 1970.<ref name="Sharnoff"/> In December 1982 former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Fujinokawa]] took charge of the stable.<ref name="Sharnoff"/>

The retirement of [[Tosanoumi]] in December 2010 briefly left Isenoumi stable without any ''[[sekitori]]'' for the first time since 1983, until [[Ikioi Shota|Ikioi]] was promoted to the ''[[jūryō]]'' division a year later. The former Fujinokawa reached the mandatory retirement age of 65 in September 2011 and passed the stable to former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Kitakachidoki]]. The stable was for a long time situated in [[Tokyo]]'s [[Edogawa, Tokyo|Edogawa ward]], and to help tackle the high crime rate in that area, the former Isenoumi Oyakata instructed his wrestlers to go on [[neighborhood watch|night patrols]], the first stable to do so.<ref>{{cite web|author=|title=Sumo patrols put fear of god into Tokyo criminals|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/3313030/Sumo-patrols-put-fear-of-god-into-Tokyo-criminals.html|publisher=[[Daily Telegraph (UK)|Daily Telegraph]]|date=17 May 2003|accessdate=9 August 2018}}</ref> In April 2012 the stable moved to new facilities in [[Bunkyo, Tokyo|Bunkyo ward]].

The stable had a policy of not accepting foreign-born wrestlers or ex-university competitors,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2018/08/08/sumo/entering-sumo-world-not-something-taken-lightly/#.W2xb3-SWyUk|title=Entering sumo world not something to be taken lightly|last=Gunning|first=John|date=8 August 2018|publisher=Japan Times|accessdate=9 August 2018}}</ref> but the Mongolian Arauma joined in 2020.

Isegahama stable (2007)

2021-12-30T10:01:59Z

{{refimprove|date=April 2014}}

[[File:Isegahama stable 2 2015.JPG|thumb|right|280px]]
{{Nihongo|'''Isegahama stable'''|伊勢ヶ濱部屋|Isegahama-beya}}, formerly known as '''Ajigawa stable''' from 1979 to 2007, is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. Its current head coach is former ''[[makuuchi#Yokozuna|yokozuna]]'' [[Asahifuji Seiya|Asahifuji]]. As of January 2022 it had 20 wrestlers.

==History==
The original Ajigawa stable was established in April 1979 by former ''[[sekiwake]]'' [[Mutsuarashi Yukio|Mutsuarashi]]. He had originally hoped to become head of [[Miyagino stable]] and had married the daughter of the incumbent stablemaster there, but the marriage ended in divorce. He moved to [[Tomozuna stable]] upon his retirement in 1977 before opening up his new stable two years later. Ajigawa stable absorbed [[Kasugayama stable]] in 1990 on the retirement of its head coach. In April 1993 [[Asahifuji Seiya|Asahifuji]] acceded to the Ajigawa name and took over the stable, due to the poor health of the incumbent. In late 2007 Asahifuji switched to the prestigious Isegahama [[toshiyori|elder name]] which had become available upon the retirement of its previous holder, former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Katsuhikari Toshio|Katsuhikari]], thereby also changing the name of his stable. Asahifuji's decision to switch to the Isegahama name can be seen as an attempt to restore his ''ichimon'''s reputation (the ''ichimon'' was known as Tatsunami-Isegahama for many years before becoming solely Tatsunami; as a result of the success of the renamed stable the ''ichimon'' has been solely known as Isegahama since January 2013). He also moved the stable to new premises.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sumofanmag.com/content/Issue_25/Heya_Peek2.pdf|title=Heya Peek - Isegahama-Beya|last=Gould|first=Chris|date=June 2009|publisher=Sumo Fan Magazine|access-date=17 February 2017}}</ref>

In September 2012, its wrestler [[Harumafuji]] won his second consecutive tournament and was promoted [[Yokozuna]] for the next basho. In March 2013, the stable absorbed the coach and wrestlers ([[Terunofuji Yoshiaki|Terunofuji]], Wakaaoba and Shunba) of [[Magaki stable]]. Magaki was shut down due to the poor health of [[Wakanohana Kanji II|Magaki-''oyakata'']].<ref>{{cite news|script-title=ja:間垣部屋　春場所後に閉鎖…伊勢ケ浜部屋に移籍へ|url=http://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2013/01/27/kiji/K20130127005067570.html|access-date=25 November 2013|newspaper=[[Sports Nippon]]|date=27 January 2013|language=ja}}</ref> Isegahama stable had four of its wrestlers ranked in the ''[[makuuchi]]'' and ''[[jūryō]]'' divisions in 2017, although Harumafuji retired in November 2017 and ''ōzeki'' Terunofuji fell to the lower divisions through injury in 2018 before staging a successful comeback, eventually reaching the rank of ''yokozuna'' in July 2021.

==Ring name conventions==
During its time as Ajigawa stable, most of the wrestlers' [[shikona|ring names]] started with the kanji 安 (pronounced ''a'' or ''an'', meaning ''peaceful''). Since the name change to Isegahama, a new pattern has taken hold, with many wrestlers having ring names ending with the characters 富士 (read: fuji), in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Asahifuji, although other stables use this suffix too. The 照 ("teru") prefix is also common; examples are Terunofuji, Terutsuyoshi, Terumichi and Teruju.

[[File:Hakkaku beya.JPG|thumb|right|280px|Entrance to Hakkaku stable]]
{{Nihongo|'''Hakkaku stable'''|八角部屋|Hakkaku-beya}} is a [[heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Takasago ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It was established in September 1993 by former ''[[Makuuchi#Yokozuna|yokozuna]]'' [[Hokutoumi Nobuyoshi|Hokutoumi]], who took with him four wrestlers from [[Kokonoe stable]]. The stable has so far produced nine ''[[sekitori]]'', four of whom have reached the ''[[makuuchi]]'' division. As of November 2022 it had 28 wrestlers, the largest in professional sumo.

Many Hakkaku wrestlers have the kanji 北勝 (pronounced ''hokuto'' or ''hokutō'') in their [[shikona|ring name]], taken from the former name of their head coach.

==Ring name conventions==
Many wrestlers at this stable take ring names or ''[[shikona]]'' that begin with the character 北 (read: hoku), meaning north, in deference to their coach and the stable's owner, the former Hokutoumi.

Dewanoumi stable

2021-12-30T09:57:29Z

2003:6:133B:223C:686D:B4F9:8E0F:12CE:

[[File:Dewanoumi Beya.JPG|thumb|right|280px|Entrance to Dewanoumi stable]]
[[File:2019 Dewanoumi stable sign.jpg|thumb|right|220px]]
{{nihongo|'''Dewanoumi stable'''|出羽海部屋|Dewanoumi-beya}} is a [[heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ''[[Glossary of sumo terms#ichimon|ichimon]]'' or group of stables. It has a long, prestigious history. Its current head coach is former ''[[maegashira]]'' [[Oginohana Akikazu|Oginohana]]. As of January 2022 it had 15 wrestlers.

==History==
[[File:2019 Dewanoumi stable explanation.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Sign detailing background of the stable]]
The stable's rise to prominence was due to the 19th ''[[yokozuna]]'' [[Hitachiyama]], who transformed it from a minor stable when he joined sumo into a powerful recruiting house when he retired in 1914 and became its head coach.<ref name="hitachiyama">{{cite web|url=http://www.sumofanmag.com/content/Issue_17/Rikishi_of_Old.pdf|title=Hitachiyama Taniemon (1874 - 1922) Part 2|last=Kuroda|first=Joe|date=February 2008|publisher=Sumo Fan Magazine|accessdate=26 October 2017}}</ref> Under his leadership the stable produced three yokozuna, [[Ōnishiki Uichirō|Ōnishiki]], [[Tochigiyama]] and [[Tsunenohana]], ''[[Makuuchi#Ōzeki|ozeki]]'' [[Kyushuzan Juro|Kyushuzan]], [[Tsushimanada Yakichi|Tsushimanada]], [[Ōnosato Mansuke|Ōnosato]], and [[Hitachiiwa]], and 20 other top division wrestlers.<ref name="hitachiyama"/> At its peak the stable contained over 200 wrestlers, and Hitachiyama's refusal to allow any of his disciples to break away and form new stables when they retired ensured its dominance remained after his death in 1922 at the age of 48. Tsuneohana was the ''rijicho'', or head of the [[Japan Sumo Association]] from 1944 to 1957, and every subsequent head from 1968 to 1998, including ex-[[Dewanohana Kuniichi]] and the 50th ''yokozuna'' [[Sadanoyama]], was a member of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon''. The 57th ''yokozuna'' [[Mienoumi Tsuyoshi|Mienoumi]] was the first Dewanoumi stable member to be permitted to branch out and open a new stable, which he did in 1981 with [[Fujishima stable (2010)|Musashigawa stable]]. (A previous ''yokozuna'' from the stable, [[Chiyonoyama]], had been thrown out of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon'' in 1967 after setting up [[Kokonoe stable]]). Long time head Sadanoyama stood down in 1996, passing control over to ex-''sekiwake'' [[Washūyama]].

The demotion of [[Futenō]] to the ''[[makushita]]'' division in July 2010 left the stable without any ''[[sekitori]]'' (wrestlers in the salaried divisions) for the first time since 1898.<ref>{{cite web|title=Kotomitsuki listed on Nagoya sumo tournament rankings despite dismissal |url=http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100705p2a00m0na013000c.html |publisher=Mainichi Daily News |accessdate=12 July 2010 |date=5 July 2010 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100706161743/http://mdn.mainichi.jp/mdnnews/sports/news/20100705p2a00m0na013000c.html |archivedate=July 6, 2010 }}</ref> This continued until {{Interlanguage link multi|Dewahayate Ryūji|ja|3=出羽疾風龍二|lt=Dewahayate}} was promoted to the ''jūryō'' division for the November 2014 tournament (in which he managed only five wins and was immediately demoted). In January 2015 the stable saw ex-''[[maegashira]]'' [[Towanoyama]] announce his retirement, leaving {{Interlanguage link multi|Dewaōtori Taichi|ja|3=出羽鳳太一|lt=Dewaōtori}} and the 44-year-old {{Interlanguage link multi|Dewanosato Hideyuki|ja|3=出羽の郷秀之|lt=Dewanosato}}, with four tournaments in ''jūryō'' between them, as the only other wrestlers apart from Dewahayate with any ''sekitori'' experience. However shortly afterwards the stable recruited former amateur ''yokozuna'' [[Mitakeumi Hisashi|Mitakeumi]] who quickly made ''jūryō'' in July 2015 and the top ''[[makuuchi]]'' division in January 2016. In July 2017 he became the first member of the stable to reach ''[[sekiwake]]'' rank since 1982,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0003784502|title=Takayasu fills spot as new ozeki for Nagoya|date=26 June 2017|publisher=The Japan News|accessdate=26 June 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170626173521/http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0003784502|archive-date=26 June 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> and in July 2018 the first to win a top division championship for the stable since Mienoumi in 1980.

{{Nihongo|'''Asahiyama stable'''|朝日山部屋|Asahiyama-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ''[[ichimon]]'' (or group of stables) It is located in [[Chiba prefecture]].

The stable's [[Asahiyama stable|predecessor in name]] had a very long history in sumo, however the current incarnation is unrelated to it. A year after the closing of the previous incarnation of the stable, the retired former [[Kotonishiki]], after several years of borrowing [[Glossary of sumo terms#toshiyori kabu|elder names]], finally acquired the vacant elder name of Asahiyama, and set up his own stable, a dream he had had from long before. He financed a building to house his stable in [[Kamagaya]], Chiba near [[Kunugiyama Station]] on some land he had procured, quite near the stable he originally wrestled for, [[Sadogatake stable|Sadogatake]] of the Nishonoseki ''ichimon''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1588717.html|title=元琴錦の中村親方が朝日山襲名　年内に部屋再興へ Former Kotonishiki, Nakamura elder to take the elder name Asahiyama and start own stable|date=1 January 2016|work=Nikkan sports}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.asahi.com/articles/ASJ3K432BJ3KUTQP00C.htmll|title=元関脇琴錦の朝日山親方、独立へ　４４番目の部屋起こす Former Sekiwake Kotonishiki, Elder Asahiyama, goes independent and opens the 44th sumo stable|date=19 March 2016|work=Asahi Shimbun}}</ref> Owner Asahiyama's hope was that he could bring together the demanding training he learned as an active wrestler in his original stable, [[Sadogatake stable|Sadogatake]] (one of the strongest stables in sumo) and the warmheartedness towards trainees that he later learned as a coach at [[Oguruma stable]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1653747.htmll|title=元琴錦「朝日山部屋」再興　３力士連れ尾車から独立 Kotonishiki revives Asahiyama stable, branches out independently with 3 wrestlers from Oguruma|date=1 June 2016|work=Nikkan Sports}}</ref>

It was announced in February 2017 that Asahiyama Oyakata's 18 year old son, Akihide, would be joining the stable as a new recruit upon graduation from high school in March.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/sumo/20170205-OHT1T50319.html|title=元琴錦の長男が入門し春場所初土俵…ラグビー経験生かし父譲りの“Ｆ１相撲”を目指す|date=6 February 2017|publisher=Hochi.co.jp|language=Japanese|accessdate=6 February 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170206100245/http://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/sumo/20170205-OHT1T50319.html|archive-date=6 February 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> He fights under the name [[Wakaseido Akira|Wakaseido]]. In January 2022, it had eight wrestlers, with no [[sekitori]] yet.

{{Nihongo|'''Asahiyama stable'''|朝日山部屋|Asahiyama-beya}} is a [[Heya (sumo)|stable]] of [[sumo]] wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ''[[ichimon]]'' (or group of stables) It is located in [[Chiba prefecture]].

The stable's [[Asahiyama stable|predecessor in name]] had a very long history in sumo, however the current incarnation is unrelated to it. A year after the closing of the previous incarnation of the stable, the retired former [[Kotonishiki]], after several years of borrowing [[Glossary of sumo terms#toshiyori kabu|elder names]], finally acquired the vacant elder name of Asahiyama, and set up his own stable, a dream he had had from long before. He financed a building to house his stable in [[Kamagaya]], Chiba near [[Kunugiyama Station]] on some land he had procured, quite near the stable he originally wrestled for, [[Sadogatake stable|Sadogatake]] of the Nishonoseki ''ichimon''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1588717.html|title=元琴錦の中村親方が朝日山襲名　年内に部屋再興へ Former Kotonishiki, Nakamura elder to take the elder name Asahiyama and start own stable|date=1 January 2016|work=Nikkan sports}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.asahi.com/articles/ASJ3K432BJ3KUTQP00C.htmll|title=元関脇琴錦の朝日山親方、独立へ　４４番目の部屋起こす Former Sekiwake Kotonishiki, Elder Asahiyama, goes independent and opens the 44th sumo stable|date=19 March 2016|work=Asahi Shimbun}}</ref> Owner Asahiyama's hope was that he could bring together the demanding training he learned as an active wrestler in his original stable, [[Sadogatake stable|Sadogatake]] (one of the strongest stables in sumo) and the warmheartedness towards trainees that he later learned as a coach at [[Oguruma stable]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nikkansports.com/battle/sumo/news/1653747.htmll|title=元琴錦「朝日山部屋」再興　３力士連れ尾車から独立 Kotonishiki revives Asahiyama stable, branches out independently with 3 wrestlers from Oguruma|date=1 June 2016|work=Nikkan Sports}}</ref>

He took three low ranked wrestlers from the aforementioned Oguruma stable (which along with Sadogatake is also a member of the same Nishonoseki ''ichimon'') to join his new stable.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sumo.or.jp/en/sumo_data/sumo_beya/detail?id=asahiyama |title=Asahiyama stable information |publisher=Sumo Reference |accessdate=17 June 2016 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141015103536/http://www.sumo.or.jp/en/sumo_data/sumo_beya/detail?id=asahiyama |archivedate=15 October 2014 }}</ref> In January 2017 the stable left the Nishonoseki ''ichimon'' and joined the Isegahama ''ichimon'' (to which the previous incarnation of Asahiyama stable had belonged.) It was announced in February 2017 that Asahiyama Oyakata's 18 year old son, Akihide, would be joining the stable as a new recruit upon graduation from high school in March.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/sumo/20170205-OHT1T50319.html|title=元琴錦の長男が入門し春場所初土俵…ラグビー経験生かし父譲りの“Ｆ１相撲”を目指す|date=6 February 2017|publisher=Hochi.co.jp|language=Japanese|accessdate=6 February 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170206100245/http://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/sumo/20170205-OHT1T50319.html|archive-date=6 February 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> He fights under the name [[Wakaseido Akira|Wakaseido]]. In January 2021, it had eight wrestlers, with no [[sekitori]] yet.

==Ring name conventions==
Currently, the wrestlers who branched out to the new stable with the former Kotonishiki have taken ''[[shikona]]'' starting with "Asahi", (朝日) meaning morning sun, and which are the first two characters in the owner's elder name and that of the stable.
