Tokyo, Japan seen through a Swede’s glasses. Differences, similarities & about being a big, big girl in a big, big world.

Mr Kotooshu

If you ever get a chance to watch SUMO wrestling live, don’t miss it! I went the other day and it was a truly fascinating experience. The atmosphere in the stadium, the wrestling in itself and to see these enormous but at the same time very lithe men is really something. When the remarkable Bulgarian; Kotooshu (outstandingly successful, although non Japanese) entered the stage the excitements rose and everyone seemed to be in high spirits! Right besides us were three women in their 60’s, enthusiastic shouting his name over and over again. Luckily he won, as he does most of the time.
