[1/7] Nadine, a 43-year-old tourist from the U.S., wearing a sumo wrestler costume, tries to spar against former sumo wrestler Towanoyama on the sumo ring before tourists from abroad, at Yokozuna Tonkatsu Dosukoi Tanaka in Tokyo, Japan June 30, 2023. Beneath its vaulted roof is a sumo ring and 14 tables where patrons pay 11,000 yen ($76) to eat breaded pork cutlets before watching - and joining - the action. Another former sumo wrestler, Yasuhiro Tanaka, started the restaurant after founding a company to give ex-wrestlers a second career as actors in commercials and movies. "But no, it was really, really amazing." "As sumo wrestlers, we couldn't really play around at all," said Tanaka, 47, who admitted he wasn't a particularly strong competitor.

This long exposure picture shows the city's skyline with the Tokyo Tower (C) from Toyosu Gururi Park in Tokyo's Koto district on January 25, 2023. Asia-Pacific markets are set to mostly fall after U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell forecast more rate hikes this year, saying that "the process of getting back down to 2% has a long way to go." Futures for Australia's S&P/ASX 200 were at 7,274, lower than the index's last close of 7,314.9 and pointing at a second-straight day of losses. Elsewhere, markets in Hong Kong and mainland China, as well as Taiwan are closed for a holiday today. Ether climbed to nearly reach the $1,900 mark, its highest level since June 4.
