Are you? lol I don't understand my own lack of excitement even though it's happening as we type. I did realize the guys were in Japan probably at a hotel last night though, it's just hard to imagine what's going on on the course right now.
How do we describe that guy that looks like Takeda with the letter on his shirt?

I was was having trouble waiting for it anyways XD Maybe his friends with an A, S, U, K and E shirt got lost?  (Man I hope this post isn't spammy) |

You ask me, kinda looks more like Akiyama's hair than Takeda's. I dunno, maybe they both use the same amount of gel?
And I wonder if one day they'll decide to actually wear those black All-Star t-shirts during the competition? Would be kinda cool but it'd detract from their normal outfits.
But all that aside, I'm really excited for this. The suspense is already killing me.
I doubt he'd be there (health pending), but I really hope Shiratori made it to make the All-Stars six again for the first time since 17. If he didn't, then he must definitely be in not-so-good shape.

I'd be pumped if I knew I could watch it on the 27th for sure.

The shirt is the "official" one for SASUKE 23 so it will probably be available at Muscle Park later if they have extra (and they usually do).
He says that the 1st Stage should be over at around five.

Sasuke 22 was the closest we've come in a long time to having all 6. 5 all stars were there, and Shiratori was seen through his backyard footage with Sato. The problem here is for 5 tournaments in a row we have had one of these guys show up, but not the other. Without Akiyama here this time, feels like there will be 4 all stars for the first time. But Akiyama is probably there (as we speak to be exact) and why doesn't Bunpei just show up to watch? My guess is that he feels shameful in showing up and not run the course, being one of the all stars. |

Wow, I want one of those shirts. Probably the blue one because the tower on the red one is kinda hard to make out.
If it's available at muscle park, do they sell outside Japan? Or any chance someone might buy a bunch and Ebay them?

No they don't sell outside of Japan. It's a common complaint of all the shirts Monster 9 ever sells. You have to know someone in Japan to get it for you. Personally I liked the Sasuke 21 ones the best |

Bummer, I like the blue shirt too. Would definitely be worth paying the international shipping for.
And I am jazzed up too about Sasuke filming right now. It's definitely getting the juices going and I'm trying to find time after my 12-hour workdays to get my butt back in the gym and train for 24.

Personally I don't see why they can't either. Maybe if people email them enough they might relent and sell their old shirts to the ones abroad who are more than willing to fork over the cash for them  |

They should be over now, shouldn't they?Heck, in Tokyo it's...half past one am? Today was my first school day, but I couldn't think about everything else. When my maths teacher was trying to explain us what we will study this year, I was thinking THIS : and drawing a Sasuke 23 Nagano's 2nd Kanzenseiha poster ^.^ Also, I though about Shingo and Kazuhiko, hoping that Kazuhiko finally got rid of that damned first stage and Shingo of his bad luck (...mental......joke, I love Shingo  ) problems. |

LOL Maybe the first obstacle didn't work as planned and 50 competitors went out super fast ;D In all seriousness, does anyone know the reason for the exceptionally long breaks between stages? Is it to make sure the competitors are rested? |

Edit: i messed up with time zones now, but not when I worked on Sasuke 23 broadcast. Pheeww...still 11 am sunday morning. Oh yeah!
I suddenly had a vision of Yasuo Aoki making it all the way to the final stage, only to fall asleep five inches before the goal.
