Who are the other two, Moti? I remember the pair from Magaki, but not the
other.
Thanks,
Barbara

Oh brother. We have 15 year old twins joiningthe new recruits as well.
First set of twins since Haru 2005, and the second set of twins ever to join
together, but going to different heyas, Takashima and Tomozuna. The
Kigurashi? (木暮) brothers. They are identical twins, one (Akira?
Masahiro? the older) is 177 centimeters, 125 kilos, the other (Sadahiro the
younger)178 and 124 kilos. "I'd like to face my younger brother in a
playoffff..", said the other brother. They've been doing sumo since the
fifth grade. Their father manages a golf course, so they have been doing
that too, but their dream has always been Sumo. They differ in style as
well. The older one is an oshi type, the younger prefers yotsu. "The eldest
is gentle, the other is more active", said 47 year old mum. Older one will
be Takanomiya and the younger Kainomiya, utilizing part of their mother's
maiden name "Miyashita", plus the "Taka" from Takashima and the "Kai" from
Tomozuna respectively. "While I'm at it, I'm aiming for Yokozuna!!", said
one of them, but I can't tell the difference between them so I don't know
which one.

Love grows and so does Toyonoshima. He has grown by 2 centimeters, and is
now officially 1.70 meters. "It's 2 centimeters more., but I am not happy!
Me being small is my selling point!", he wailed. Still, he's small, and will
try to wriggle his way to Sanyaku come the basho.
