Ikazuchi stable

On 26 January 2023 it was announced that Irumagawa, in anticipation of his mandatory retirement in April, would give control of his stable to coach Ikazuchi (former komusubi Kakizoe) without him inheriting the Irumagawa elder name.

[1] In 2020, the stable recruited Ukrainian Serhii Sokolovskyi who made his debut during the March tournament under the name Shishi.
