Sumo is the setting, but people are the story. The Tatsunami Stable YouTube channel offers a glimpse into a world rarely seen from the outside.

Hōshōryū is a Yokozuna, the highest rank in professional sumo, competing in Japan’s Grand Sumo tournaments.

Fujinokawa is one of the most exciting young rikishi, combining serious sumo pedigree with a compact, explosive fighting style.

This banzuke brings together Japanese mythical animals, folklore beasts, and spirit creatures in the format of a traditional sumo ranking sheet.

Asashōryū was one of sumo’s most explosive and unforgettable Yokozuna, the first Mongolian to reach the sport’s highest rank.

In just two years, Onosato went from his Makuuchi debut in January 2024 to becoming a yokozuna in May 2025.
