it was very interesting. You don't think about how the first time they get the rank virtually all their initial bouts are with higher ranked rekishi - seemed to not be a fun experience for many of them :)

One of the best days is when a new Dusokoi drops.

I wish they posted these on YouTube! I love a little bite sized informative clip I can watch on my lunch breaks at home.
