Aki Basho Full Banzuke Prediction, Top Prospects Under 22, and Retirement Odds

It’s that time of the Sumo calendar again and I’m excited for it. This coming Aki Basho there will be lots of interesting promotions and some of them have already been confirmed even if the exact positions/ranks haven’t been yet. As always I took the results of the Nagoya Basho and ran them through the algorithm that can be found discussed in depth at the Determining the Banzuke section of the Sumo Knowledge Encyclopedia. This time around I did add to the algorithm so it’d be even better (it gets correct that demoted Ozeki will be the lowest Sekiwake position, rather than the highest). I’ll also update on some future improvements I hope to have for the next prediction at the bottom. Feel free to skip around as sections are labelled and the full Banzuke is at the bottom.

Makuuchi/Upper Banzuke

In the Makuuchi we’re getting low on Ozeki, huh? Hopefully Takakeisho can win 10 matches so he can have his Ozeki status restored, otherwise, he’ll have to work his way back up the hard way.

Here’s something that I am not sure on despite doing research on Sekiwake recently: with 3 Sekiwake who all went Kachi-Koshi, I think they’ll actually open up a slot for Takakeisho and he’ll just be Sekiwake 2 West. Regardless, even if that is how it works, when I say this is algorithm based, I mean it and coding it so Ozeki getting demoted would be the bottom Sekiwake was hard enough. I’m still implementing some of the research we’ve done here. I actually doubted the algorithm on them demoting Takerufuji to Juryo last time but that turned out right, so generally speaking, it actually does a pretty good job all things considered and the R^2 is ~.7+ just on correct order so take results to be directionally correct even if they aren’t perfect for Guess the Banzuke.

Hiradoumi lately is the hot prospect. He certainly has done well getting a Kachi-Koshi every tournament since November of 2023 and most impressively a 10-5 at his Komosubi debut. I think in a different Banzuke he could’ve opened up a new Sekiwake slot as we found out that going 10-5 tends to open up a new slot for Sekiwake historically speaking. Still, if he has another great tournament he could be on an Ozeki run if he made Sekiwake in November. He’ll definitely be on the next Ozeki preview which shows how far he’s come.

I don’t think Shirokuma (fun fact, it literally is white bear/polar bear in Japanese) actually ends up in the Makuuchi, but he probably will be sooner or later. Other than that, the thing that sticks out to me is how crowded the upper Banzuke is. When guys are healthy out there, getting wins is only getting tougher with so many strong wrestlers. It’ll be interesting to see how that impacts future Yokozuna and Ozeki promotions.

Prospect Talk

As I work more on Sumo, I’ve gotten more acquainted with the lower Banzuke and a bit more of a feel for the guys that have potential. As such, it’s always great to look at the Banzuke and seeing the top prospects and where they look like they’ll end up. It’s really nice having this Banzuke prediction early so I’ll be able to highlight a few guys looking like they’ll be promoted and maybe highlight a few more prospects each piece like this so it gives people more guys to root for hopefully.

This time around I’m really excited for Daiseizan who has been confirmed to be coming up to Juryo. He’ll be the first Chinese born Sekitori since 2020 Sōkokurai Eikichi¹. They are both from Inner Mongolia, China. Kiryuko is also confirmed to come up to Juryo and wrestles out of the same stable as Hoshoryu (Tatsunami Heya). He’s younger than Daiseizan at 21 too. Both will be in the lower Juryo, but they also both were dominate in upper Makushita so it will be interesting to see if they hit a wall in Juryo or blast through it. I don’t know if I believe it, but the algorithm has Aonishiki in Juryo too. He’s a top prospect out of Ukraine, and his compatriot Shishi did well enough in Juryo last tournament himself he should be in the upper Juryo in September. As always, if you want to end up on my radar, be a wrestler from any country other than Mongolia or Japan; I love seeing rikishi from different countries get involved, and I think it can only be good for the sport long-term.

Tanji went 6-1 in lower Makushita and he just turned 18 but had his first tournament in Jonokuchi at 15 years old (and ~11 months). It goes to show despite the trends we’ve explored over the past couple weeks that there are still Rikishi making debuts at younger ages and succeeding. He was at 183 centimeters then, or just over 6 feet, and is already at this level, which certainly augers well for his future. Might have to tune in for him to see if the skills are as precocious as his ranking. Satorufuji is one other wrestler to highlight for now. He’s looking like he’ll be either in lower Juryo or upper Makushita. In fact, check out this list of wrestlers’ predicted ranks who have yet to turn 22. It’s missing college guys that should rocket up quickly, but is a nice proxy for a top prospect list.

If you ever wonder why I’m always pointing out Atamifuji’s incredible potential, here’s a big part when his closest competition (arbitrarily defined of course) is in mid-Juryo and he’s in the Joi for what should be his 5th tournament in a row. I’ll always put respect on his name for that much.

Retirement Odds

Just a quick refresher on the way it works but this is a primarily backwards looking measure. In other words, I’m taking a look at the results from the tournament in July, running the data and checking who looks most likely to retire from that². It is most heavily influenced by injury losses; guys that are missing lots of matches are going to be more likely to retire. Additionally, older wrestlers, and wrestlers who were demoted are both more likely to retire. If they have a 1 in the Demoted column that means they’re predicted to be demoted, so Asanoyama and Chiyoshoma. Finally, please note that while this algorithm is better than nothing, the amount this model can explain is less than our model for predicting the Banzuke can explain. Still, I think it’s a nice check-in to have and if anything, I’m rooting for guys to keep wrestling (if it’s not detrimental to their health, of course.)

Unfortunately, we see two former Ozeki on this list, and again unfortunately, I do think the odds here are likely correct in that they are two guys I see a decent shot at them calling it quits sooner than later.

On the bright side, the Takerufuji odds are assuredly wrong unless something disastrous happens. If anyone has any favorite wrestlers they want me to run the numbers for, the formula is in the retirement piece but I’m more than happy to manually run them on your behalf. I always double check myself when implementing these just to be safe so I can get not wanting to plug in the numbers for a logistic regression and I do always like helping out readers. Still pumped for the one reader who was worried about Endo potentially retiring and how he (Endo) looks like he has plenty in the tank still, in my humble opinion of course.

Future Improvements to Banzuke Algorithm

In the past month or so I did a research deep dive on Sekiwake and Komosubi and found out some interesting rules for the amount of slots, who retains which slot, and so on. Unfortunately, it is a bit tough to implement with the way I have the algorithm currently set-up. It took a good amount of work to implement the “demoted Ozeki get last Sekiwake slot” due to the way that worked. In fact, Sekiwake and Komosubi were so troublesome that’s why I still have the same number of slots retained tournament to tournament. Apologies I haven’t better implemented some of the research we’ve done but I will eventually incorporate them so we can have the most accurate process, ideally.

Another thing I would also like to explore more is how top performers in the lower divisions are treated. I would like to test if guys that go 6-1 or 7-0 below Juryo are promoted more than we would expect the rest of wrestlers? I’ll see if I can set that up, because I personally want to have a more accurate picture of where those guys will end up as soon as the Basho is over.
