Nittele G+ Original Program 'Oyakata, What Do You Eat?' to Air from June 20, Uncovering Sumo Philosophy and Feelings for Disciples Hidden Behind Gourmet Food

What does a sumo stable master eat after stepping off the dohyo? A director conducts an in-depth interview to uncover the tradition of 'chanko' that supports the appetites of the wrestlers they train, and the master's unknown 'food preferences' in this CS broadcast Nittele G+ original program 'Oyakata, What Do You Eat?' This time, the program closely follows former Asasekiryu, Oyakata Takasago. The setting is the Daihachi Hachiman Shrine in Ibaraki, known as the oldest Hachiman shrine in the Kanto region. On the shrine's dohyo, wrestlers from the Takasago stable perform their morning practice in front of a large audience. The pleasure after practice is the stable's proudly served chanko nabe. The head chanko chef prepares a vegetable-rich 'chicken salt chanko' that supports the wrestlers' bodies. Furthermore, a highlight is the involuntary smile that appears when Oyakata Takasago is presented with the char siu noodles from his favorite restaurant 'Ebisuya', which he has loved since his active days. The second episode delves deeper into the annual tradition of the training camp at Daihachi Hachiman Shrine in Ibaraki. In the evening, a warm dinner party is held with members of the support group who have supported the master since his active days, creating a heartwarming time of interaction filled with smiles. The program also explores the responsibility of being the head of the Takasago ichimon (clan) and his deep feelings for his disciples. Additionally, attention is focused on the feelings for the master expressed by four sekitori (ranked wrestlers) and their unknown bond.
