He was 173 cm tall and weighed 119 kg, which would make him extremely small by today's sumo standards.

He was a runner-up in only his second top division tournament and quickly made the san'yaku ranks, reaching sekiwake in November 1959.

In an era dominated by Taihō he was only able to win one tournament championship, in July 1963, when he defeated Sadanoyama in a playoff.

He remained in the sumo world as an elder under the toshiyori name Edagawa and worked as a coach at Tokitsukaze stable.
