An unusual incident occurred when a rikishi's mawashi loosened and slipped up quite high on his upper body. The shocking scene drew the attention of viewers, with comments like, "It's up to his chest," "That's nerve-wracking lol," and "What's going to happen?"This happened during a match between Makushita third-ranked Dewanoryuu  and Makushita 1 to Kyokukaiyuu . Dewanoryuu grabbed Kyokukayuu's rising mawashi, and the momentum caused the mawashi to slip significantly higher. As Dewanoryuu continued to hold on to the mawashi and brace himself, Kyokukaiyuu's mawashi gradually became looser... The rikishi continued to grapple for a long time, but Dewanoryuu's pressure drained Kyokukaiyuu's strength, and he was eventually defeated by yorikiri. What caught the attention of the viewers was the fate of the mawashi, which had become significantly loose... The match ended without the referee Kimura Zennosuke calling a wardrobe matta.
