Unfortunately, I forgot to use it; I only used it in the last few days. It really helps save money, and it works for both the subway and the bus.

Reviews: Ochiizumi Stables in Osaka: Sumo Show, Sumo & Kimono Experience, and Chankonabe and Other Japanese Cuisine
Guest User2025-10-07
After the beginning trepidation, it was really so much fun. It’s a bit far out, close to the airport, but easy to get to. I booked the afternoon show. They say turn up early, but don’t turn up before 5pm because they don’t let you in. You already have been allocated a table so it doesn’t matter too much what time you arrive. The annoying thing was they kept playing an intro video on repeat; and the same songs from Bruno Mars on repeat. However, once the show started it was actually great, you could meet 3 sumo guys, they were so friendly, the rules were explained in Japanese and English; and you can try it as well. It was a lot of fun. They could do with a better welcome at the beginning, a better menu and better in-between music, but overall for the experience it was fantastic.
