I've seen a few people in different topics saying they don't like Levi in Sasuke. So I just wanted to see exactly why some people don't like him while putting it into one topic. I also was wondering if people think of him differently outside of Sasuke as well.
This makes me respect Levi more than anything.

Overall, I like Levi both in and out of Sasuke. The only problem that I have at all with him is how he seemed to show off a little in Sasuke 21 during Stage 1 by doing all of those flips as if Stage 1 was so easy to him that he took it as somewhat of a joke, which didn't seem very respectful to both the competition and his fellow competitors.

I seem to be the only one who likes Levi flipping all over the course. It's a lot of fun to watch and it adds unpredictability to the show.

He's a good guy.
Honestly all his antics on the course aren't really a big deal. He just doesn't take Sasuke all that seriously, and I like that.

I actually like Levi. Even though I think it's a bit disrespectful to treat the Sasuke course as if it's a freerunning course, I think he's a great competitor and athlete, and from what I've heard he seems to be pretty humble as a person as well.

Having be one of the few people on here that has actully met Levi, and i guess technicly hung with him for a day, my answer is yes. Levi is a really nice guy. Hes cool, chilled and very nice, and dispite what you may see, he is anything but cocky. While, i was not a big fan of Levi's Sasuke 21 stage 1 run, even though i still do think he did that to wake up the crowd, because appearently, they were very quiet and bored that day. But yes, Levi is a very nice guy, and i do like him.

I don't find his flips and such as disrespectful. I think it's kinda one of the reasons he's on Sasuke to begin with. He's a free-runner and that's what he does. As for whether or not I like him, that's kinda hard to say. He seems like a really cool guy, but I wouldn't know.

I like him, and quite a lot. I didn't like his flips in Sasuke too much, but...at this point I just gave up There's only one thing he should have kept for himself, flipping back into the water in Sasuke 23. (G4 aired the ANW qualifiers Sasuke 23 runs, right?) All in all, I'd like to meet him. And that video also is a +1 for him.

Levi doesn't seem like a bad guy, I think he's just really playful and maybe his flips on the course just helps him focus, IDK. I'm sure he doesn't mean to be disrespectful to the course with his antics.

Agreed, I kinda like the guy. He's darn good at the course, and sure... I didn't enjoy his flips at first. But if he can do them, and beat the course, then I don't see a problem. Now if said flip causes him to make a mistake and either lose too much time or fall off the obstacle, well then yes, that's just gonna be the price of being risky for a bit more energy from the crowd/TV station.
But as I said, it doesn't matter if he does a flip and passes with 40 seconds left, or does a flip and passes with .01 seconds left. Passing is passing.

I liked him when he first went to Sasuke, but the more they show of him on G4, the more I dislike him and I can't really tell why. Just a feeling.
I wonder why no one else who said they don't like him posted here to explain themselves.
Hmmm.

Because they realized random flips isn't a credible excuse to hate someone (boy I'm using the smileys a lot today) I kid, I kid. It's not that everyone hates Levi imo, they just saw the flips as cocky DO NOT CLICK IF YOU HAVENT SEEN 23 BY SOME CHANCE. ONLY WARNING. Although I laughed at it, the flip into the water during 23 doesn't help either. I know it's not really a spoiler but neither is Nagano in the final stage to G4 either

I see them as cocky as well, but I don't HATE him over it. That's a little dumb. I just don't care for him. That's all.

Because I didn't see this thread since I've been busy with other stuff I still think he's cocky and something about him I don't like. I think it's the generation attitude in general I don't like. The less he talks the better I like him honestly. I think in general outside of Sasuke I might actually get a long with him. But in Sasuke he grates my nerves because he shows his lack of understanding of what is appropriate in certain situations. As for this video I think it's cute overall. Just funny that he spent so much time telling people that he won't flip on command now he's doing it for charity.

I didn't mean when he's actually on the course. I meant in real life he seems more like an a*****e than Levi.
Just the vibe I get from him with nothing completely concrete to base it off of. Like I said I don't hate either of them.

I really like Orosco. Between: (1) His demeanor in general (observing him along side everyone else at APEX) was really light-hearted and friendly. (2) His conversation with me, Chris C., and Chris K. (3) His enthusiasm, playfulness, and general lack of egotism on the course is refreshing.
Despite the fact that I openly lambasted him on Wikipedia for taking out post-TBS pre-G4 spoilers, and admitted it to his face, he was still plenty chill about it. Definitely talented, and definitely a cool guy.
