Just top-tier stuff up and down today, like you noted. Asakoryu, Ura, Hoshoryu, Kotazakura, Onosato...so much impressive strategy on display.

So many great bouts! Like that you mentioned Kotozakura there. I think a lot of people kind of gloss over him (maybe because of his physique). I think he's one of the most technical and strategic guys out there.

Yeah, it's a joy to watch that strangely-built, pedigreed titan work that big body of his in one defensive chess match after another. Is something wrong with his knee? He hasn't been quite the wall he was during his breakthrough run
