My family's upcoming Japan trip (myself, a 12 year old and a 10 year old) happens to be during the September sumo tournament in Tokyo. I am considering going to see the sumo one afternoon.

I understand it is a few seconds of action for each match. I have also looked at the seating and to get three seats (rather than sitting on the floor Japanese style) we would be up a ways in the balcony area.

Overall for people who have seen a sumo tournament, would you say it is worth doing or not?
