Somehow I never even heard of this cartoon. It feels like this is on the tail end of racially insensitive cartoons being a thing. Like, ok, they are sumo wrestlers which is kind of a racial stereotype, but also they are a diverse cast of sumos? I looked up the show, and the japanese sumo has a really stereotypical speech pattern, like a white guy putting on a fake japanese accent. Apparently his name is "Ben Hur" which certainly doesn't sound like an asian actor's name, but I couldn't find a photo of him.
