Gany Kenji is a former sumo wrestler from Himeji, Hygo, Japan. He made his professional debut in March 1986, and reached the top division in March 1996. His highest rank was maegashira 1. In May 1999 he continued fighting in the tournament despite having ligament damage in his ankle, in search of the eighth win that would give him a winning record. He was also restricted by persistent knee problems. He retired in May 2000 and is currently an elder in the Japan Sumo Association under the name Yamahibiki. He took over the running over the Kitanoumi stable in November 2015 after the death of its founder and head, former yokozuna Kitanoumi. The stable was renamed Yamahibiki stable.
