==Appearance==

==Personality==
At the first glance, Sumo has a ruthless demeanor, as evidenced during his fight with Hank and Emiko. However, after Hank's victory over Sumo, and his subsequent compassion towards him, the sumo wrestler is touched by the gesture, and becomes an ally for the rest of the film. Likewise, he also describes himself as being a "prawn in the sea of life", and in one scene is seen playing peacefully with a butterfly.
==Story==
Sumo first appears as the ruthless sumo wrestler, and soon he is engaged in a fight with Emiko, and later, Hank. The sumo wrestler beats up the would-be samurai dog relentlessly until Jimbo helps him out, scoring Hank an victory against Sumo. After this event, Hank is compassionate enough to get Sumo to a doctor afterwards. Touched by the gesture, Sumo starts to befriend the dog. The reformed sumo wrestler appears on a bridge, watching Emiko teach Hank origami and playing peacefully with a butterfly. 
Later, while Hank is distracted, Ika Chu's ninjas destroy the town, and capture Sumo to imprison him. Jimbo, meanwhile, attempts to storm Ika Chu's palace in hopes to free Sumo, who was captured by Ika Chu's goons. Hank returns in order to help him out. Eventually, Sumo aids Jimbo and Hank by steamrolling through the army of guards and kicking the entrance doors open. 
Upon hearing about Sumo's escape, Ika Chu recruits an army of thugs to get rid of Kakamucho for good. Hank and Sumo return to Kakamucho, and the former then explains his plan to defeat Ika Chu's army. Eventually, Hank chases Ika Chu to his palace, where he fights him on his giant jade toilet, which overflows and threatens to flood the town. The samurai dog warns the Kakamucho townspeople of the incoming flood, and leads them in the digging of a channel to safely divert the water around the town, with Sumo playing the vital role of the plan. When Emiko and the other cat children are washed away by the river, Sumo teams up with Hank and all of the other villagers to save them.
