Juryo Meisei held his wedding ceremony today. 700 guests at the "Hotel in
Tokyo". "It's a happy occasion. I was promoted earlier than Meisei  but he
got married first," said Houshouryuu with a smile, congratulating
him. Meisei and his wife 小夏 (Konatsu?? Citrus fruit?) got married in
February last year after dating for about a year and a half. However,
Houshouryu said, "I was surprised. I didn't know." He said he found out
when the two of them came to visit Tatsunami Oyakata, to pay his respects.
"He's an older brother who taught me so much since I joined the sumo world.
I was also his tsukebito. He's like a 'big brother.' I want to give him a
present that's different from everyone else's," he said with respect and
affection. When pressed about when he thought he might get married, he
laughed and evaded the question, saying, "Don't worry about me."
