If Akiyama passes Stage 1....

[lars072]

HUH? I thought Iketani was shown in a digest failing the Warped Wall. Am I wrong?

[Badalight]

IMO Akiyama still has great potential, there are just a few problem obstacles though he'll have to overcome.

1. HPA - No discussion needed

2. Warped wall - once again, no discussion needed, dude is short.

3. Slider Jump - New obstacle which even Nagnao failed, also his eyesight could hurt him here.

4. Downhill Jump - Where is the rope?

5. Metal Spin - Where is the ropes?

6. SCH - Where is the ledge?

If you need me to go into any further details, tell me.

Besides that I think he's a strong competitor, stage 3 IMO would be pretty easy for him. He definately has the strength to do it, I mean, he's ALWAYS gotten far into stage 3 except hsi failure on the body prop.

I think that would be one of the easier stages for a guy built like akiyama, an even though it's night time his bad vision shouldn't hurt him on really any of the obstacle, and stage 3 has some good lighting.

And final stage, well granted he does the ladder well he's a beast when it comes to climbing rope.

I don't see how his eyesight could hurt him on the Slider Jump, the net is fairly sized, his height would be more of a killer here, seeing as he would have to get a perfect jump to get the distance.

I don't see how it will hurt him on the Metal Spin and Cliff Hanger either. He only failed the Metal Spin because....well, same reason as the 6 others who failed it that very day. Nothing to do with lighting. And Akiyama....has never failed the Cliff Hanger (granted he's only been on it twice, but hey). So if somehow he makes it that far, he'll find a way.

HPA- didnt keep his grip, misstep, nothing to do with his eyes
WW- Nagano's also 5'3"
SJ- He has poor NIGHT vision. Not daytime vision, but NIGHT vision
DHJ- ever noticed how people dont... jump? the ropes low enough he canget his arms high and holdon
MS- keep his grip, he'l be him
SCH- reaching, and he can probably make the ledge, if i recall, the cliffhanger has lights around it...

His height on the Warped Wall is no excuse, like BigBlind said.
