Sumo Saga
Sumo is a traditional Japanese sport deeply rooted in history and culture. It involves two wrestlers, or rikishi, competing in a circular ring called a dohyo. The objective is simple: force the opponent out of the ring or make any part of their body (other than their feet) touch the ground. Matches are quick but intense, with rituals like salt-throwing adding to the spectacle. Wrestlers follow strict training regimens and maintain large physiques to gain an advantage. Sumo is governed by centuries-old traditions, including rankings and ceremonial attire. Major tournaments, or basho, are held six times a year in Japan, drawing large crowds. The sport blends athleticism, discipline, and cultural heritage, making it a unique and revered martial art.
