 The sixth 2018 issue of Weekly Shounen Jump magazine, which goes on sale on January 4, has announced that manga Hinomaruzumou (Sumo of the Rising Sun) will get a TV anime adaptation.Synopsis It is a divine ritual, a martial art, a combat sport—it's sumo!! A "small" new student, Ushio Hinomaru, appears before the weak little sumo club of Oodachi High School! The words "big" and "heavy" are the rules to this sport, which does not fit this newbie any inch, but this guy goes and does what...?! Ushio and the small sumo club climbs its way to the top! The goal is Hinoshita Kaisan! (a title for the highest rank in professional sumo, equivalent of Yokozuna) A fired up high school sumo tale—no retakes allowed!! (Source: Shounen Jump, edited) The manga is drawn by Kawada and has been publishing in Shueisha's Weekly Shounen Jump magazine since May 2014. The series currently has 17 volumes in in print, with the 18th volume to be released on January 4. Source: Hachima Kikou Hinomaruzumou on MAL |

| I don't think I've ever seen a sumo anime, so I'll probably check this out. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| About time, this has been around since before Hero Academia. I was starting to think it would never get one. Interested in if it's any good or not. Though I thought the title was Hinomaru Zumou, not one word? Is this another Gakkou Gurashi situation? Is that the official romanization? Ah whatever. |
| Awesome,wanted to check this one out for a while now,but an anime will be even sweeter. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Inb4 Toeiminator/Killer Pierrot strikes again.... Looking forward for seeing dem sweaty sumo asses ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)' |
 |
| > Sumo. > MCs aren't fat. Are they sure this is sumo? Or just martial arts like Grappler Baki? |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| One I've been meaning to start all year. |

| Nice, I've been enjoying the manga since the start. They can easily make a 2 cour with what they have to work with now. Looking forward to it. |

TOEI also finishing tiger mask W which also 3 cour series, maybe they also work that way... their latest sumo also courly (2 cour IIRC) rather than long run.... they had 17 volume (might 20 when anime aired) ready to adapted.... |

| holy shat finally!! if the manga sales will boost to a deserved tier... gotta ask that too... |
| YES! More bara anime is always welcome.. Though I really want a studio other than Madhouse, I don't like what they did with All out!, it was just there.. I hope it's a good studio with good art cuz them muscles need to be drawn properly <3 |
 |
| All for more intense sport anime. But we'll see what studio this'll get in the end. DevilDuo said: Finally!!!!!! I swear to God, if they make this a 13 episode anime. I will destroy my f*ck*ng computer. It's better if it gets a one-cour to test the waters. If they pump out 51 episodes Black Clover style it'll just be a mess. |
