He made his debut in 1915. He won two top division tournament championships. His highest rank was \u014dzeki. He retired in 1930 and became a sumo coach.Table of Contents       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Early life[edit]Post wrestler life[edit]Career record[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Early life[edit]Born Fukuma Takahashi (\u9ad8\u6a4b \u798f\u99ac), he had a very large build from a young age. When he was registered for military service at age twenty he measured in at 181 centimeters tall and weighed 80 kilograms. When he joined the Kokura artillery battery, his size was noticed by his commanding officer and he was released from service to enter professional sumo.The expectations placed on Takahashi when he debuted in sumo are clear from his initial shikona or ring name of Kuganishiki Fukuma (\u9678\u9326 \u798f\u99ac) that he was given. It combined one of the characters from the name of recently retired Hitachiyama with one of the characters from the former ring name of the then current yokozuna Nishinoumi Kajir\u014d II, which had been Nishikinada (\u9326\u6d0b). From his entry into sumo in January 1915, he lived up to these expectations and rose steadily through the ranks. In his fourth tournament in January 1917, at jonidan 12 he earned his first championship with a 5\u20130 record. After four more years of tournaments with straight winning records he reached the top-tier makuuchi division in the May 1921 tournament. On this occasion he would take the new ring name of Onogawa Kiichiro (\u5c0f\u91ce\u5ddd \u559c\u4e00\u90ce). In this tournament his record was 4\u20135 with one draw. This was his first losing tournament in over six years of sumo. He was demoted to j\u016bry\u014d 1 for the following January 1922 tournament. A 5\u20133 record was enough to put him back into makuuchi for the next tournament, where he would remain for the rest of his career. His success continued and he rose steadily through the ranks of maegashira and a very strong showing of 9\u20132 at the rank of komusubi in May 1926 would see him promoted to sekiwake. All three of his sekiwake appearances were winning records and in his second and third tournaments at sekiwake he came in second to yokozuna Tsunenohana for the championship. He was promoted to \u014dzeki for the following October 1927 tournament. In his rise to \u014dzeki after his initial losing tournament in his makuuchi debut in May 1921, he had only recorded one more losing record in a span of over six years. Ironically, he would miss his entire first tournament at \u014dzeki due to a bout of influenza. Two tournaments after becoming an \u014dzeki he changed his name to Toyokuni Fukuma because a sumo elder in Osaka sumo had the name Onogawa. As an \u014dzeki, Toyokuni’s winning streak continued, and in the January 1929 tournament he would come one win short of the championship, losing it to then sekiwake Tamanishiki. The following March tournament, Toyokuni attained his first makuuchi championship. Two tournaments later, in September of the same year he was again the runner up for the championship. The following tournament in January 1930 he attained his second and final makuuchi championship. The following tournament in March of that year, he would finally record his first losing tournament in the san’yaku ranks. He bounced back in the following May tournament with an 8\u20133 record, but in the subsequent October tournament he withdrew due to a back injury after achieving only a 1\u20133 record. Afterwards, he soon announced his retirement.Post wrestler life[edit]Upon retiring, Toyokuni would take the elder name Kokonoe (\u4e5d\u91cd) and soon after became the head of Kokonoe stable, a previous incarnation of the current Kokonoe stable. Later on his health began to suffer and in May 1937 he was obliged to disband the stable and his wrestlers moved to Asahiyama stable. He died in May 1942 at the age of 48.Career record[edit]In 1927 Tokyo and Osaka sumo merged and four tournaments a year in Tokyo and other locations began to be held.Toyokuni Fukuma[1]–SpringHaru basho, variedSummerNatsu basho, varied1915(Maezumo)West Jonokuchi #190\u20130\u20135\u00a01916East Jonokuchi #74\u20131\u00a0West Jonidan #564\u20131\u00a01917West Jonidan #125\u20130Champion\u00a0West Sandanme #395\u20130\u00a01918West Makushita #474\u20131\u00a0East Makushita #193\u201311h\u00a01919East J\u016bry\u014d #152\u201321h\u00a0East Makushita #14\u20131\u00a01920West J\u016bry\u014d #83\u201311d\u00a0East J\u016bry\u014d #74\u20131\u00a01921West J\u016bry\u014d #23\u20132\u00a0East Maegashira #154\u201351d\u00a01922West J\u016bry\u014d #15\u20133\u00a0East Maegashira #167\u20133\u00a01923West Maegashira #57\u20133\u00a0East Maegashira #20\u20130\u201311\u00a01924East Maegashira #76\u20134\u00a0West Maegashira #23\u20138\u00a01925West Maegashira #56\u20135\u00a0East Maegashira #25\u20133\u201321h\u00a01926East Maegashira #18\u20133\u00a0West Komusubi #19\u20132\u00a0Record given as win-loss-absent\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Top Division Champion\u00a0Top Division Runner-up\u00a0Retired\u00a0Lower DivisionsSansh\u014d key: F=Fighting spirit; O=Outstanding performance; T=Technique\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Also shown: \u2605=Kinboshi; P=Playoff(s)Divisions: Makuuchi \u2014 J\u016bry\u014d \u2014 Makushita \u2014 Sandanme \u2014 Jonidan  \u2014 JonokuchiMakuuchi ranks:\u00a0Yokozuna \u2014 \u014czeki \u2014 Sekiwake \u2014 Komusubi \u2014 Maegashira–SpringHaru basho, TokyoMarchSangatsu basho, variedSummerNatsu basho, TokyoOctoberJ\u016bgatsu basho, varied1927East Sekiwake #17\u20134\u00a0East Sekiwake #19\u20132\u00a0East Sekiwake #29\u20132\u00a0West \u014czeki #20\u20130\u201311\u00a01928West \u014czeki #16\u20135\u00a0East \u014czeki #27\u20134\u00a0East \u014czeki #17\u20134\u00a0East \u014czeki #17\u20134\u00a01929West \u014czeki #19\u20132\u00a0West \u014czeki #19\u20132\u00a0West \u014czeki #16\u20135\u00a0West \u014czeki #18\u20133\u00a01930West \u014czeki #19\u20132\u00a0West \u014czeki #15\u20136\u00a0West \u014czeki #18\u20133\u00a0West \u014czeki #1Retired1\u20133\u20137Record given as win-loss-absent\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Top Division Champion\u00a0Top Division Runner-up\u00a0Retired\u00a0Lower DivisionsKey:d=Draw(s) (\u5f15\u5206);\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0h=Hold(s) (\u9810\u308a)Divisions: Makuuchi \u2014 J\u016bry\u014d \u2014 Makushita \u2014 Sandanme \u2014 Jonidan  \u2014 JonokuchiMakuuchi ranks:\u00a0Yokozuna \u2014 \u014czeki \u2014 Sekiwake \u2014 Komusubi \u2014 MaegashiraSee also[edit]References[edit]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/toyokuni-fukuma-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Toyokuni Fukuma – Wikipedia"}}]}]
