Pretty intense episode. Hinomaru continues to show that hes someone not to mess with, in or outside of a sumo wrestling. Unfortunately, I think the fights he picks on sometimes may be too good for his own good.

In that ring, he has such passion in his eyes that's hard to overlook. Poor Shinya Ozeki A lot of focus on Hinomaru but I still wonder how much more he can improve.

Pretty solid episode, I'm glad we got to see that Hikage Tenma dude; can't wait to meet Shidô though. Now we have the traditional "oh god my technique isn't ultimate anymore, I have to get stronger again" moment so I hope the outcome will be good ~

Good episode.

Hinomaru's technique while strong isn't undefeatable and those Sekitori sure showed him why.

A former Yokozuna to coach Hinomaru? Sounds good to me. Looking forward to the training. xD

Ushio really had a tough time with those Ozeki guys, but it couldn't be helped since they're pros. I'm glad he casted his doubt aside and became optimistic again. Hopefully this former yokozuna jiji will make him become stronger and get back to those guys.

Yuma and others sure encountered one vengeful younger brother, he handled them well though ;-).

Great episode,

What does a solid episode mean? Seriously, I really do not know. lol

I do not know if I'm really enjoying this anime. So he's pretty rushy.
Gimme more character development and/or romance. Probally a shotacon.

Kind of annoyed on the world revolves around Ushio thing that the Yokozuna further seals.

Kyaa'ed so hard when Hinomaru took down that Sekitori but sadly reality set in, his size is really an unbelievably large disadvantage and cannot see how he'll overcome that against the pros, I guess that's why this anime exists.

I liked the phrase that technique never stops improving.

Pretty cool episode in general, I like that Odente guy, he seems to be the tall character every sports anime has xD

Also hyped to see the training with the former Yokozuna.

awesome! the old Geezer in blue yukata is the real deal true Yokozuna former champion!
This episode makes Hinomaru so weak compared against the elite pro sumo wrestlers!
5/5.

Hinomaru got his ass handed to him but that was to be expected. These guys are pros.

Ushio is so good, but he also has a lot he can get better at too which is crazy. When he gets to his full potential he's gonna be a fucking monster

It was a good episode although the art felt really off during most of it.

Hinomaru has really experienced some challenging opponents in this episode, but he's not quite up to far, mainly due to the fact that he'll need a bigger arsenal of moves, because doing the same move is just too predictable.

A former Yokozuna has invited him to his place for training. Perhaps this will be what further improves Hinomaru.
