Hakkaku stable
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hakkaku stable (Japanese: 八角部屋, Hakkaku-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, one of the Takasago group of stables.
The stable was established in October, 1993 by former yokozuna Hokutoumi Nobuyoshi, who took with him four wrestlers from Kokonoe stable. The stable has so far produced two makuuchi wrestlers: Hokutōriki Hideki and Kaihō Ryōji.
Many Hakkaku wrestlers have the kanji 北勝 (pronounced hokuto or hokutō) in their ring name.
