Ozeki Takanonami

Ozeki Takanonami comes from Futogoyama-beya, along with many other top ranked rikishi. Ozeki Takanonami was promoted to Ozeki right at the same time that current Yokozuna Musashimaru was. Many say that Takanonami doesn't have the drive and determination to become Yokozuna, because they say he's happy being a Ozeki. Takanonami is also rumored to be a very nice guy, who participates in Kodomo-Sumo (Where small Children face large upper-ranked rikishi.)
