Facts and practical information

Kagamiyama stable was a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Tokitsukaze ichimon or group of stables. It was set up in November 1970 by former yokozuna Kashiwado, who branched off from the Isenoumi stable. Upon his death in December 1996 the stable passed to his protégé, former sekiwake Tagaryū. For many years it had just two wrestlers, one of them Tagaryū's son Ryusei, making it the smallest active stable. It was decided at a Japan Sumo Association board meeting on July 21, 2021 that it would close immediately with all its personnel transferring to Isenoumi stable. ()
