Do the 10 competitors simply run the 4 stages like normal, or will it be some sort of Kunoichi-8 Stage 1 type format? Also, by that pic of Yuuji, glad to see he made it past Stage 1. I can honestly see Yuuji, Ryo, Kanno, and Arnold breezing past the first 3 stages.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07572152619653511493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-63518455489053072652013-12-06T15:12:49.173-05:002013-12-06T15:12:49.173-05:00Matt Iseman posted that the official date is Janua...Matt Iseman posted that the official date is January 13th.

Oh and I st...LOL on Shingo the Energizer bunny! :)<br /><br />Oh and I stopped trying to find reason with Comcast. I know with NBC execs it's all about how they can get the full cut of advertising revenue (meaning cutting TBS out) so if they decided ANW is "worth more" than Sasuke then so be it. If they kept using Sasuke as a crutch it would "devalue" ANW in the advertiser's eyes. By making ANW the main event they can then sell that overseas (as they have been doing) and get revenue as a "new IP".. see the money trail? They don't "need" Sasuke anymore and therefore any talk about them needing Sasuke so far is moot. Only fans of the Japanese show are the ones being cut out of the loop. We are relegated to bootlegs copies of the show because TBS hasn't figured out they can sell Sasuke on Bluray/DVD for a massive profit overseas.Arsenettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827174580094352191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-73628323683807433352013-09-17T21:01:27.263-04:002013-09-17T21:01:27.263-04:00Re: NBC douchebaggery: you know, I wonder if Comca...Re: NBC douchebaggery: you know, I wonder if Comcast gets a cut of the TBS's NW sales, since Comcast is doing the editing/packaging for TBS. If so, then they are shooting themselves in the foot for losing money by not airing Sasuke Rising. If not, if I was TBS I might want to make that an incentive, because that would be a win for everyone (since TBS would be able to sell those tournaments, Comcast would get money, and fans would get to see NW versions of Sasuke 28 and 29).<br /><br />Also, if I was Comcast, I would want to air the two Rising tournaments simply as a way to hype up that Japan v. US special, to help acquaint/reacquaint people with the Japanese representatives.<br /><br />Of course, we also know that Comcast execs are morons, and I still wonder if the Sasuke rebranding and restructuring to just be under TBS's control might have affected the contract with Comcast. (sighs)<br /><br />Oh, and Shingo has hotels also???? Geez, Shingo, you want to come over to my house and mow my lawn and fix my AC too, with all of that energy???jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426620625341684543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-76231039961002311732013-09-17T20:15:46.431-04:002013-09-17T20:15:46.431-04:00Agreed Venus.

Comcast is the official broadcaster of Sasuke in the United States and by extension the Ninja Warrior distributor worldwide.. not showing new Ninja Warrior for 2 years+ is utter and complete bullshit. Especially since they did a halfa$$ job sending ANW4 no-named competitors on their own dime to Japan without any fanfare and outright boycotting Sasuke 29 because ANW was "bigger". There's absolutely nothing to excuse what they have been doing. 150+ countries are paying the price. And just because NBC decided to feel bigger than they actually does not excuse what's going on worldwide because of their actions. Take their apologies elsewhere because honestly that's not going to fly here.Arsenettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827174580094352191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-52629581187437651732013-09-17T19:25:36.173-04:002013-09-17T19:25:36.173-04:00I'm kind of still under a slight impression th...I'm kind of still under a slight impression that they're not showing Rising just yet for a reason. While yes, NBC/Universal can be such D-Bags, I can see why they're doing what they're doing. <br /><br />That reason as I mentioned on the board, is that we still don't have a champion just yet. Until we get a champion on our turf, they're not showing Sasuke Rising just yet since you've got a lot of people who'll try to train for those obstacles, instead of what's still here and next thing you know, many will complain about it, giving a lot of people some unnecessary aggravation for the whole thing.<br /><br />I definitely want to see Rising shown here in the U.S. as well, but you gotta take what's happening here first before we go to the main source for it all. :/GTONekohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196610134152705678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257291297969412550.post-43842671019795135762013-09-17T09:24:21.447-04:002013-09-17T09:24:21.447-04:00If I were visiting another country and was told I ...If I were visiting another country and was told I couldn't interact with fans of mine, I would say (of course, given the same set of circumstances) "I don't care what you say, I'm going to anyway.
