That's all he cares, for (not so: optional) sure. He met her as a
stewardess on the JAL flight to SF Bay Area for San Jose Sumo Basho, the
first ever full (with every makuuchi rikishi) sumo tornament out of Japan
last year. He thought she was cute, and asked her and several other
stewardesses to join his brother Takanohana and other rikishi from
Futagoyama-beya to play at Great America amusement park in Santa Clara. But
his only purposes was to be close to his future wife. And not long after,
they decided to get engaged with each other.
