was a sumo wrestler from Toyama City, Japan. He was known for his techniques, which accommodated his small size. Although his height was only 158 cm, he gave the likes of Hitachiyama and others a real challenge and was called the "mite". He was the shortest wrestler in sumo history, and also one of the lightest at 73 kg. His highest rank was sekiwake. After retirement, he was known as Shiratama-oyakata.
