One thing I like here is that Myogiryu showed a lot more signs of respect than usual. The common head bow was bigger than usual, and he also did it right after he got up from the dohyo. He was most likely very impressed.
a lot happened in a very short time in this bout: a thrusting battle, an effort at kotenage by Takanoyama, an effort at oshidashi by Myogiryu and finally the winning torikumi, okurinage. Whew!

Two future Makuuchi regulars if things go right. Myogiryu in particular has the skill and size to go further. Good luck for both of them.
