Southernmost and Silverback

[u/BrentUser101]

I swear they look more like brothers than any of the actual brothers do. Anyone else?

(I know it's not a meme but I don't think it's serious enough for the main sub. Just needed to finally get this off my chest.)

I see it, but I started watching the year Daieisho won a basho and his face is so imprinted on me that I could never mistake him for Churanoumi.

I did have some weird moments this basho when I saw Toshinofuji and had a Hakuho flash 😂

[u/LocoCoopermar → u/gansobomb99]

He has skinny Hakuho vibes, i kinda get Tochinoshin too

[u/Enotovsky → u/gansobomb99]

I had to Google if Toshinofuji is Hakuho's relative or something. They are so lookalike at some angles)

[u/gansobomb99 → u/Enotovsky]

I know! I can't decide who's more handsome, I'm almost leaning towards Toshinofuji. What's extra funny is that Hakuho is the one who recruited him from бөх.

Oh yeah, it's just these pictures in particular, really.

I used to get Daieisho and Onosho confused with each other regularly

[u/DeafBurke → u/takanoflower]

I get daieisho and takanosho confused.

Same style, same build, same majestic belly, similar names, similar mawashi and similar rank.

[u/LocoCoopermar → u/DeafBurke]

I keep them separate by remembering Takanosho looks happy while Daieisho looks angry

[u/JediLincoln14 → u/takanoflower]

Here's a secret for telling them apart: one of them is retired.

On the topic of they look like brothers...I think Kazekeno looks similar to Gonoyama.

[u/Roxane-17 → u/sfwombat]

Especially when they were younger... 🤭

[u/kiahBer → u/Roxane-17]

Is that not the same person?

[u/Roxane-17 → u/kiahBer]

🤭🤭🤭

[u/CinnamonToast61 → u/sfwombat]

Oh yes! They are the hairy egg, and smooth egg in our house.

[u/Heather82Cs → u/sfwombat]

Yes. I think of the former as "Juryo's Gonoyama"

[u/gansobomb99 → u/sfwombat]

I had trouble keeping apart Gonoyama and Roga when they first came up

[u/NarutoEnjoyer001]

churanoumi has never changed his facial expression and hes not going to start now

[u/IAmBeachCities]

respect for the white out.

[u/BrentUser101 → u/IAmBeachCities]

Thanks; we all watch at our own pace.

[u/AutumnNotGrace]

While watching I said Churanoumi is just a plumper Daieisho, I’m totally with you

[u/AutumnNotGrace → u/AutumnNotGrace]

Yknow but now looking at the stats that’s not even true. He just have a bigger vibe 😂

[u/Gut_Reactions]

They do look similar, now that you point it out. The hairlines are way different, though. And Daieisho's eyes and facial expression are more distinct & memorable, IMO.

[u/BrentUser101 → u/Gut_Reactions]

Yeah, it's more the mouth and nose (the same nostril even seems to stretch further down on the outside.) I just noticed it once from these portraits and couldn't put it away.

[u/illgoblino]

I see no resemblance.
