Shishi was called in by the judging bureau after his match and warned for
doing a  dame-oshi (extra shove after the bout had bee decided)  . He had
beaten Asahakuryuu by yorikiri but even after Asahakuryuu fell out of the
dohyo, Shishi made a movement that looked like he was pushing Asahakuryuu's
chest whilst not letting go of his mawashi. Chief Judge Onoe who served as
the chief judge for the first half of Makuuchi said, "It's dangerous with
spectators around. He needs to be more careful. I understand he's fired up,
though." Shishi's Oyakata Ikazuchi  who was also on the judging team, said,
"It was unsightly, so I had the chief judge warn him. He needs to be able
to show some consideration for his losing opponent. That's what a rikishi
should be like," expressing his hopes for his disciple's growth. Shishi
reflected, "I've been told to be more careful."
