    Big hearted female sumo wrestlers
    Get over yourself for this topic, the main lady here quickly grabs your heart and respect for her love for the sport. You really do feel for her.

    The problem is that this documentary is just way too ridiculously short. It raises a number of interesting points but due to its length it just cuts them short. Even the big tournament felt like like a flash in the pan.

    A lot of good to say but it felt like a trailer or highlights package. Time for a full length documentary on this. They deserve it. That would also be properly respectful to them just as they request.
