Fujishima Stable (2010)
, formerly known as Musashigawa stable, is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi ''ichimon'' or group of stables. It was set up in August 1981 by former ''yokozuna'' Mienoumi, who branched off from Dewanoumi stable. Since its founding Dewanoumi had a long tradition of not permitting its coaches to break away and form new stables, and Mienoumi was the first to amicably depart Dewanoumi stable since Tochigiyama set up Kasugano stable 62 years earlier. By the early 2000s it had become the strongest stable in sumo, with a ''yokozuna'', three '' ōzeki'' and several other top division wrestlers.
