Ideal number list for 40

[dakohosu]

Now that 40’s been confirmed, what numbers would you pick for competitors?

Note that this isn’t a predictions thread, more if you could choose them what numbers would you give each competitor, including competitors you’d like to see return for the 40th anniversary?

Here are mine:
#4000 - Yusuke
#3999 - Yuuji
#3998 - Nagano
#3997 - Tada
#3996 - Sato
#3995 - Hayate
#3994 - Ryo
#3993 - Keitaro
#3992 - Suzuki
#3991 - Mutou
#3990 - Saikawa
#3989 - Goto
#3988 - Snowman
#3987 - Darvish
#3986 - Kawaguchi
#3985 - ABCZ
#3984 - Shingo
#3983 - Takeru
#3982 - Araki
#3970s - Shunsuke and Kanno
#3960s - random celebs that can get fast forwarded
#3950s - Hioki, Black Tigers, Isa, Yamada
Anything below - Sugeta, Ajima, other celebrities

As you can see I’ve sort of adhered to the recent trend of strong competitors in the 90s, celebs in the 80s, dying stars in the 70s and everything below being a mix of new faces, celebs, and strong competitors who are frequently given lower numbers to spread out the field. I like this approach as it prevents the first hour of the broadcast from being a complete slog.

Few changes I made; notably being demoting Darvish and Kawaguchi to the 80s. I don’t see how knocking them down 10 positions would negatively affect the ratings; and at this point they honestly don’t deserve to be next to Yuuji or Yusuke in the running order. Darvish fits better next to his fellow celebs, while Kawaguchi’s performances of recent warrant him being placed next to Shunsuke and Kanno but I gave him #86 as I know TBS likes to rim him out lol.

Yamada I demoted not because I dislike him, but because him being placed so high is a massive immersion breaker in between all the high stakes runs as it’s obvious he’s not going to clear. I also think he better suits being placed right after his protégés.

[brz0ny]

Nagano is confirmed to be there? Hopefully not as i dont want to see him fail an obstacle like a joke competitor once again

[m4tt3r0x]

4000: Yusuke Morimoto
3999: Yuuji Urushihara
3998: Makoto Nagano
3997: Yamada Katsumi
3996: Tada Tatsuya
3995: Tomohiro Kawaguchi
3994: Snowman
3993: Sato Jun
3992: Yamamoto Keitaro
3991: Kajihara Hayate
3990: Darvish Kenji
3989: Kan Yutaka
3988: Ryo Matachi
3987: Suzuki Yusuke
3986: Mutou Tomohiro
3981: ABC-Z
3977: Araki Naoyuki
3976: Takeru
3975: Ayano Oshima
3974: Hitoshi Kanno
3973: Shunsuke Nagasaki
3960: Hioki Masashi
3952: Yamamoto Yoshiyuki
3950: Isa Yoshinori
3940: Goto Yusuke
3930: Sugata Rinne
3929: Ajima Hideki
3920: Saikawa Koji
3901: Shingo Yamamoto

Making this list made me realize even more how much Yusuke overshadows every single other competitor, and it's not even close. Only putting Yamada up that high because it's an anniversary tournament. I try to consider optimal editing fastforwards in my lineups.

[dakohosu]

There's no confirmation of who's competing and who isn't, though he did say he would compete in 40. Personally I have no issue with Nagano competing even though he's 15-20 years past his prime; even though I knew he'd fail Stage 1 in 38 it was still a joy to see him return to the start line and engage with the community even though his passion for competing died long ago. Also, his fail in 38 wasn't exactly a joke competitor-level fail; he reached the Dragon Glider with a lot of time to spare (unlike comedians who, if at all, would have like 5 seconds left due to taking years on the Rolling Hill), and let's not forget the guy's 50. Anyone who was as fast as he was at 50 certainly gets a lot of respect from me.

Interesting numbers, especially putting Shingo at #1 lol, though I actually rate that idea. And by optimal fast forwards I assume you mean grouping Shunsuke and Kanno together so that their Dragon Glider fails get fast-forwarded, lol.

I forgot to add a few competitors in, but by the time I realised I'd already completed the number list and cba to shuffle everything around. I would like to see Kongu return and I suspect he'd get a number in the mid #80s. If Jessie and Rene return (unlikely due to the recent surge of Covid cases in Japan) I reckon they'd almost definitely get somewhere in the #90s, the latter potentially even getting #97-99.

38 wasnt, but 20,22,24,26 and especially 25, make him look like he is one of the filler contestants

Well Kanno and Shunsuke, and I think you could even FF Sato and Keitaro in Stage 1 and still show them in later stages. I think that's how they'd treat the All Stars pre-Shin Sasuke in the show. Maybe not though as it might be best to have some space between Darvish and Snowman. But definitely they could FF #86-88 and someone like Araki.

Put Shingo at #1 because it's the 40th anniversary and we can at least pretend that he'll be the 3901st attempt on the course because of his attendance record.

Putting Tomo at #95 was probably contentious, but I think he'd be a more interesting run to watch than any of the Morimoto Sedai mainly given his recent fail streak, plus they could also use his recent climbing gym opening as an impressive fluff piece.

[dakohosu]

brz0ny I think that's a bit of an unfair comment. Nagano, in spite of his legacy and success, is still human, contrary to what people seem to expect of him. Everyone is prone to mistakes no matter who they are; even Yusuke was about a centimere away from legitimately failing Stage 1 in 33. You also cherry-picked his poor performances, without factoring in that the tournaments in between those (21 and 23), he went the farthest and was Last Man Standing by a considerable margin. Even the fails you mentioned are definitely not 'joke competitor' level; unlike today's course, the course back then felled most joke competitors at the first or second obstacle. None of those fails were on the same level as, say, Akiyama in Sasuke 9. Just because he had a rocky few last runs (mainly due to his waning passion for competing) doesn't take anything away from his legacy and impact on the show, and if he does compete it's not going to be to try and uphold his reputation, more to show face and for the community spirit. Whether he fails the Dragon Glider again or even earlier, he's still the GOAT in most fans' eyes.

Yeah I actually like the idea of getting Shingo to run first, especially as it'll open the show with an exciting touch, rather than it being Torisawa failing the Quad Steps for the gazillionth time. It also worked when they had Akiyama run was #1901 in Sasuke 20. Even though the chances of him clearing are super slim, it's a much better opener than another joke competitor; I mean they flat out cut #1 in 38 lol.

Mine were similarly designed around fast-forwarding, like grouping Mutou, Suzuki, Ryo and Keitaro together as they're most likely to get given the chop, unless one of them fails Stage 1, though this might still get digested. I put Kawaguchi as #86 purely because that's kind of when the show sort of slows down for the celebrities, and given that Tomo's effectively treated like one at this point I figured why not put him next to Darvish etc. That said, bear in mind these are only my personal choices, I actually think he's likely to get like #95 at least especially if he upholds his threatened retirement.

Also, both of us put Tada in the high #90s, but I'd wager either way that he'd still get digested..... a part of me thinks that he actually wants to avoid the spotlight, especially as we know he doesn't like high numbers which sort of supports that viewpoint.

no no, I didnt mean to disrespect him, I still consider him a GOAT (atleast until Yusuke kanzens again), and he is my favourite competitior of all time, but that is the exact reason why it hurts me to see him being embarrassed

No I understand what you meant and it's all good dw; I just wouldn't consider a Stage 1 fail an embarrassment, especially given that he's just competing for the fun of it. If he were like Yamada was a while back and still trying to achieve Total Victory at his age then yeah it would be a bit ugh, but imo as long as he doesn't like fail the Quad Steps or Rolling Hill it's fine.

Mind you, I did hate the false advertising they gave about his run for 38. They showed him on the Dragon Glider in the trailer, whereas in the actual broadcast it transpired that that scene from the trailer was literally RIGHT before he failed, which I think led to more disappointment than was really necessary or fair.

maybe not an embarrassement, but definitely a fall from grace, especially when you know how easily he was able to beat first stage so seeing this makes it look quite sad

(I probably missed an obvious competitor somewhere, but I think I got pretty much most of the important names down.)

I put down asterisks beside certain competitors and competitor groups, mainly because these guys are the ones  that I'm least confident in them competing this tournament. As for the competitor groups, the big one is of course the spots where I put down foreign competitors, they have an asterisk due to the ongoing global situation.

I did also mention SPODAN competitors, and that’s because SASUKE has had a history of bringing in people from SPODAN/Pro Sportsman No.1 to compete on the show, with guys like Paul Anthony Terek, and Miyazaki Daisuke being some examples. Considering a SPODAN tournament happened this year, and since this occasion is so auspicious this year, I just put them down as a possibility for those numbers, with Wataru Mori being the highest.

[dakohosu]

So according to Sasukepedia (which I fully understand is a very questionable source in terms of reliability) once again there are no foreign competitors, which isn't surprising given the fact that Covid cases are in the tens of thousands daily now compared to hundreds at the time 39 aired. Otherwise, yeah I think Rene probably deserves #99 especially given that he's also a champion (of NW Germany).

I forgot about Exile Rampage tribe, but honestly that's because I couldn't give less of a f*** about them lol. They're probably the least interesting moderately athletic celebrities and have done pretty mediocrely in the grand scheme of things. It's not like Snowman or Darvish who could actually genuinely do quite well and train for the show. Same with the majority of the Akko Gundan, though the rock climber guy I'd like to see return (he was #52 in 39, forgot his name).

Most people seem to agree with putting Kawaguchi in the #80s which I think would work well. I don't think he deserves to be demoted to the #70s given that his performances haven't been as poor as Shunsuke or Kanno's, nor has he been in a rut for as long as they have/his last strong performance was in 36 compared to 33 and 31 for the aforementioned respectively, but definitely not deserving of getting #98-99 anymore. Also as I mentioned the #80s is where the show starts to slow down cos that's where all the celebrities who get massive fluff pieces are placed, so I think putting Tomo among them is appropriate. He's defo not deserving of being placed next to Yuuji or Yusuke.

[m4tt3r0x]

The Tomo in the 80s range makes sense. My main reason for keeping him in the mid 90s this tournament is because it's potentially his last, and the guy was a top tier competitor for much of post M9 Sasuke.

[brz0ny]

Wouldnt mind one of testers to be in 40 just to see how far they can reach when they have to attempt every obstacle at once.

[subtleagent]

I put Yamada at 1 because I figure if they want to give him screen time they might as well make him the opening act.

I would put Yoshiyuki higher, but clearly he's part of the spread the field group so I just left him in the 60s.

Ryo I put higher because I feel having a resurgence plus coming close in 30 (compared to Kawaguchi who's final stage run was tbh pathetic) should at least put him in the 90s. Kawaguchi I was tempted to slide lower, but I figured #81 would fit given 81 generally highlights the beginning of strong competitors.

The rest is kinda self explanatory. I try to spread the field based on how far everyone makes it in said stage.

[dakohosu]

It wouldn't surprise me if testers are banned from competing for the tournament in which they test the obstacles, given that they clearly have an unfair advantage especially if they know about forthcoming new obstacles that other competitors don't. That said, Kongu was a tester for Sasuke 18 and he ended up being allowed to compete, hence why he had a much easier time on the Salmon Ladder than the other competitors. But I'm pretty sure he was also a tester for Sasuke 28 (someone bald and in red shorts tested the Backstream, and he was also present but not competing that tournament. Coincidence I think not). Also they were trying to retire the All-Stars that tournament for being 'too old' so it would've looked a bit odd if someone who was basically the same age as them was allowed to compete and could've easily made the Third Stage (hence why Okuyama also didn't get selected). Maybe they changed the rules more recently idk.

Yeah tbh I like the recent trend of spreading stronger competitors out throughout the field; as much as I loved Shin-Sasuke, one of my biggest gripes with it was that they had no such equivalent hence the first hour of Stage 1 was just a bunch of random rookies that no one cares about, and joke competitors. Step obstacle fails are funny at first but start to get a bit irritating after the 20th consecutive time.

Shingo should be 4000.
