The next tournament in September 2016 he was promoted to ''sandanme'' where he posted a 6–1 record which saw him further promoted to ''makushita''.

He once again failed to post a winning record but managed to keep his rank where he also failed to post a winning score in March 2020, which sent him back to ''makushita'' in July 2020.
As of January 2026, he is currently fighting in the ''makushita'' division.
