Synopsis
There are no weight classes in professional sumo wrestling. That being said, it is a very brutal sport where only the strongest survive. There is however, a minimum size requirement to be a pro, and Hinomaru Ushio, who is extremely gifted at the sport falls somewhat short. Even though he doesn't make the height requirements, he has huge dreams and aspirations to make it to the top. The only way he could possibly go pro is if he becomes the high school Yokozuna, a title that is only given to the strongest sumo wrestler in the high school tournaments.
