Well well well
I wonder what the reasoning behind this decision was. One thing is, Isegahama-beya has a yokozuna and four more in makuuchi (or five? is Takarafuji promoted back now?), and they need assigned attendants. But, Isegahama-oyakata will be retiring in July next year, after reaching maximum age of 65. What happens then? Can Miyagino-beya branch out again?
In the meanwhile, it is mostly disappointing that now Hakuoho and Atamifuji won't be able to face each other – not good for rivalry development.
