Yup, Hinomaru definitely needs some decent practice partners.

This tournament has some of the best sumo wrestlers so no one is a pushover. Also cool to see Kunisaki compete again. Those battle auras though...I'm getting some slight DBZ like vibes from the episode lol

Enemy vs. Enemy will always be the scene I love to see in every anime!
Also manservice at the end! Make me want to go back to highschool and register sumo club just to take a bath with my teammates!

Even though the bout between Kuze and Tennoji didn't look amazing visually, it was still quite intense.

Well it made sense that Kuze would win. He's been built up to be Hinomaru's ultimate rival after all. But I don't think Kuze's team will do well at the team tournament since his teammates are not supposed to be top tiers like Tennoji's.

So the big fight will still be Hinomaru vs Tennoji, then Hinomaru might lose against Kuze individually but win as overall as team, continuing the rivalry to the professional stage.

Can't wait to see Kei taking on that giant guy from Hakuro.

Idk if it was only me, but i thought that the animation of this episode was particularly bizarre. And i think that the anime is missing something compared to the manga, in manga there's a tension among the wrestlers that hype us much than in anime.

So Kuze won, that was interesting. Good episode overall.

Looking forward to the next few episodes, they should be really good.

Ah, a rare sumo team in this show where each member looks menacing. Guess we have our rival team for the tourney fully in view now boys

At least Tennouji is not anymore undefeated!
Nice work Kuze Sousuke in defeating Tennouji!
5/5.

So if Hinomaru beats Kuze....then we have a true rock paper scissors game.

I'm surprised how calm Sousuke can be while fighting, a true serene beast. I'm really glad he won in the end.

Good episode overall.

Monster vs Monster, however, Sousuke proved to be the stronger one.

But this loss will definitely fire up Tennouji and Hakuro even more. Trouble is incoming for Oodachi.

Part of me is glad that Kuze beat Tennouji, as there's something more honorable about Kuze.

Still, Kuze won't be any easier for Hinomaru to beat. Let's hope that Hinomaru can beat Kuze.

Also, I'm still hoping to see Kei win a bout.

So Sosuke is stronger than Tennoji, looks like Ushio has two big obstacles to overcome in order to be the best team, luckily he has a new move up his sleeve
