(no longer so much?) Sumo Photo: Konishiki name problem
As I feared, from now on we have to look for Konishiki in the
geino-section, entertainment artists. Anyway, Konishiki will always be part
of sumo, no matter what he does or wears.
NHK seems to have problems to air a prerecorded programm, in which he is
called Sanoyama-oyakata, which he is no longer now.
And about what to call him now, they have yet to get word from the
sumo-kyokai.
We can call him Konishiki as much as we like - they may always have to say:
former Ozeki Konishiki.
