Kasugano stable
Kasugano stable

Kasugano stable (春日野部屋, Kasugano-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ichimon or group of stables. As of January 2022 it had 18 wrestlers. It has been led by former sekiwake Tochinowaka Kiyotaka since 2003. It was one of the most successful stables in 2013, with six sekitori wrestlers, including the Georgian Tochinoshin and the now retired Japanese born (but Korean national) Tochinowaka Michihiro, who used the current head coach's old ring name. It was founded in the mid 18th century by a wrestler named Kasugano Gunpachi. It became inactive for a long time but was led in the Meiji period by a referee named Kimura Soshiro (this is no longer allowed as oyakata must now be former wrestlers). He adopted as his son the 27th yokozuna Tochigiyama, who led the stable for over thirty years. He in turn adopted as his son the 44th yokozuna Tochinishiki, who became the head in 1959 whilst still an active wrestler and later served as the chairman of the Japan Sumo Association. Tochinoumi took over upon Tochinishiki's death in 1990 and led the stable until his retirement in 2003. The stable absorbed Mihogaseki stable in 2013 when its stablemaster (former ōzeki Masuiyama Daishirō II) reached the mandatory retirement age. Kasugano Oyakata was warned by the Sumo Association in 2011 after he beat three of his charges with a golf club for breaking a curfew. In a separate case, a junior wrestler was convicted in 2014 of an assault on another wrestler and given a three year jail sentence, suspended for four years. In March 2017 the victim sued Kasugano Oyakata and the now retired assailant, saying he was still suffering from the effects of the broken jaw he received and that Kasugano failed to exercise appropriate oversight.

Arashio stable
Arashio stable

Arashio stable (荒汐部屋, Arashio-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Tokitsukaze ichimon or group of stables. It was set up in June 2002 by former komusubi Ōyutaka, who branched off from Tokitsukaze stable. At the end of 2009 the stable produced its first sekitori, the Chinese born (but ethnic Mongolian) Sōkokurai who in 2013 returned to active sumo after a two-year absence when his dismissal for match-fixing was nullified by the courts. The stable is also home to the half-Japanese, half-Filipino wrestler Kōtokuzan. As of January 2022, the stable has 12 wrestlers. The stable's second sekitori, Wakatakakage, reached jūryō in May 2018, and the makuuchi division for the first time in November 2019. In the July 2021 honbasho he became the first wrestler from the stable to reach the rank of komusubi. In the January 2022 honbasho, Wakatakakage became the first wrestler from the stable to reach the rank of sekiwake. Wakatakakage won the March 2022 honbasho. Apart from its human residents, the Arashio was home to the cats Moru and Mugi, former strays which were adopted by the stable. Mugi died in 2019. In March 2020 Sōkokurai became the new Arashio-oyakata when his stablemaster reached the mandatory retirement age of 65.The stable is a popular for sumo fans to visit, as photos with the wrestlers are available, and there is a large window to view training from outside.On 31 December 2020, the Japan Sumo Association announced that one of Arashio stable's top wrestlers, maegashira Wakatakakage, had tested positive for COVID-19. Subsequent testing revealed that a total of twelve members of the stable contracted the virus, including its stablemaster, a hairdresser, jūryō wrestler Wakamotoharu and eight wrestlers from the lower divisions.
