It's Day One

Take your positions!

That's it!
Hakkeyoi! Nokotta! Nokotta!
Nokotta! Nokotta! Nokotta!
Nokotta! Nokotta! Nokotta! Nokotta!
Match over!
Ryuki!
Well done!
Newly named Ozeki Ryuki
shows no signs of feeling the pressure
as he defeats Komusubi ranked Encho.
He marks his first day with a win.
RYUKOKU STABLE
Here you are, Ozeki.
Enjoy!
To celebrate Day One.
I'll have some as well.
- Congrats.
- Cheers.
You call yourself an Ozeki
with soulless sumo like that?
I'm so sorry.
What are you apologizing for?
Who in the hell
are you wrestling for anyway?
Oyakata, today is a
I know what day it is!
Oh no.
Oh dear.
- Sorry.
- Oh my.
Don't worry.
Oh.
- Are you okay, my dear?
- Yes.
My, what a mess.
Okay. That should do it.
- Yes.
- Good.
My word.
SANCTUARY
Hey, you! Jerk!
You see a garbage can?
You picking a fight with me? Hmm?
Who touched it last? Huh? Huh?
You, right? Huh? Huh?
So why don't you throw it out,
you old fart?!
Moron!
Oh!
- What's going on?
- Shh!
It's sad to say goodbye so soon.
That brat you call Enno
make him resign now.
RESIGNATION LETTER.
Oyakata, the last thing you need
is for us to suspend your whole stable.
It sure doesn't look like
you can afford it financially.
I'm ordering you to retire Enno
by the end of the day!
- Hey, you can't go in there!
- Don't you dare!
Sorry to interrupt you all!
- Get out of here!
- That won't do, will it?
Not when you have
such a distinguished guest.
At least let me say hello.
That's the polite thing to do, isn't it?
Seriously, are you that dumb?
Anyway, I won't do it again.
I promise. Cross my heart.
So don't be mad!
I'll be your, uh, next Yokozuna
before you know it.
Just cut me some slack, okay?
Wait, you were a Yokozuna before, right?
Huh?
Listen here, you punk!
You're totally done! You're finished now!
Since the last tournament, we've been
flooded with complaints about you!
You disgust people!
Yeah, but I won't do it again.
We don't need trash like you
in this sport.
Don't you understand you're already
a blasphemy against sumo?
Say something, Ensho!
You're right, of course.
Huh?
You're so strict
when it comes to our Oyakata. Why?
Oh!
Is it because you couldn't beat him
when you were competing back in the day?
Wait, is that it?
What are you saying?
Oh, is that it?
Oh no. I'm sorry! Really!
Please forgive me.
I'm so insensitive sometimes.
Aw, man. Sorry about that.
So that's it. You couldn't beat him.
- Ah, can't bring that up, can I?
- Why you
Excuse me.
Come here.
I'm sorry we haven't welcomed you.
I thought about bringing tea, but
- Here.
- No, I don't want any.
I have to drive tonight.
And you, Inushima Oyakata?
I'm fine. Thanks.
Is that so?
Well, then, allow me to apologize
on behalf of our new wrestler Enno.
Call it the ignorance of youth.
Pardon me, Okami-san,
but "the ignorance of youth"
can't explain it away.
But you understand that.
Correct, Inushima Oyakata?
What are you saying?
If I recall,
before you were promoted to Ozeki,
you were quite strict
with a certain younger wrestler, remember?
And that young wrestler suffered
some health problems as a result.
I know discipline is a sign of love,
but in this day and age
it can be a bit much.
Right?
At that time,
I believe it was Chairman Kumada
who intervened for you.
He said, "The ignorance of youth."
How about it, Oyakata?
Just one glass to start?
That groveling piece of shit!
He'll do anything to get ahead.
Oyakata.
He's trying to settle old scores with me
by targeting Ensho Stable.
Even so,
you need to have a talk with Enno.
Well, I guess you're right, but
Dignity is an important factor of sumo.
Of course I get that.
But at the end,
winning is way more important.
Rack up victories get the fans going
The sumo where fans are so excited
they throw their cushions.
I love that stuff!
Oh, Oyakata, I'm so glad
to hear you say that.
You're exactly right.
In sumo, all that matters
is getting the crowd fired up.
Oh, and you, Okami-san.
Now that's how it's done!
Goddamn it!
That fucking bitch!
She thinks she's better than me!
That damn bitch.
She knows she has
the privilege to speak out.
What do you mean?
That annoying woman is Kumada's daughter.
Kumada? You mean Chairman Kumada?
She's the daughter
of his mistress.
Everyone knows about it.
Old man Kumada has a soft spot for her.
She knows damn well
we can't cross her directly.
She gets a free pass.
Damn it!
Those goddamn monkeys
I'll nail them one by one
until they shut the damn stable down.
Starting with that dumb ape.
Why are you
so obsessed with that kid?
He's like Ensho.
That mocking attitude
They're two of a kind.
Fuck!
- Enno!
- What?
- How bad are you gonna humiliate me?
- What's going on? Calm down!
Come back!
- Where do you think you're going, huh?
- Cut it out! Calm down already!
Listen!
Try and pull another stunt
at your next bout,
I'll rip that leg off
and shove your foot right up your ass!
Got it?
Yes!

How cool!
That reminds me.

This is Chanel!
Well, you lost your wallet, right?
Oh!
Wow! This is so great!
I had actually planned to give it to you
after you won the tournament.
But you know you'll win, right?
So why not now.
But still, this is expensive.
I had some extra money to spend.
Man
Hey, uh, will you take a picture?
Sure.
Say cheese!
Say cheese!
Say cheese!
I have a question for you.

You should be mad!

You're the cheater!
It's not fair!
You call that sumo?
You don't belong in the dohyo!
Come on!
After winning
the Jonokuchi division
in the last tournament,
he now wins Jonidan with a perfect record.
It's unfair, right?
Don't you think?
You're happy now?
I'm very happy!
But it's unfair. Oh!
- Boo!
- Get out of here!
Boo!
Congratulations! You okay, though?
Never been better.
Oyakata! I'm not wrong, am I?
They started it, right?

Here's your rolled omelette.
It's nice to see Enya
make it back to Juryo.
Yeah, it's nice. It really is.
Huh? What's with you?
- Say, Ogawa
- Hmm?
- Did you see Enno wrestle?
- Yeah, of course.
He did it on purpose, right?
When he stepped on Umayama's face.
It's unfair!
It's unfair, right?
You know, at that moment, I
I felt something
right here.
Huh?
You felt something?
Uh-huh.

- ENNO IS A CLOWN. FUCK HIM!
I'M CLUBBING
AND THERE'S A SUMO WRESTLER.
What is he doing?
#ENNO YOU'RE PATHETIC.
DISGRACE TO SUMO.
#ENNO FUCK OFF!
#ENNO I HOPE YOU DIE
YOU'RE SO GODDAMN
FULL OF YOURSELF #ENNO DIE
ENNO FUCK YOU I HOPE YOU DIE,
UGLY GORILLA. FUCK YOU.
Enno, why'd you become a wrestler?
Well, I heard you could make money.
Oh yeah?
How much does a Yokozuna make?
- Hundred million yen, I hear.
- That's it?
Huh?
The top are still in the millions?
That's nothing.
Wait, so tell me.
You want to become a Yokozuna,
or you want to make money?
Well
As long as it makes money,
I'll do anything.
Then you should start playing
the stock market.
One billion yen is pocket change.
What? No way!
Give it a try.
I'll teach you
what stocks to look out for.
- You would do that for me?
- Oh yeah.
Enno!
Here, for winning.
You mean it?
For sure! You already know. Whoo!
