As long as he doesn't make any mistakes in the first three stages then yeah he will win again

I don't see why not. Keep in mind Nagano usually trips up on new obstacles, so if a new hard obstacle comes along in stage 2 or 3 Nagano won't win. He did pass the Unstable Bridge though, and something tells me that'll be replaced next tournament.

As long as he gets to stage 3 hes winning, hopefully no re runs or anything else to tire him out more than needed and he will fly up the final stage but not tire and win with a second or two spare =).
But the form hes on at the moment I'm saying he is gonna flat out win.
I feel it!

I'd say he has a pretty good chance of winning, though IMO things may turn out for him like they did in Sasuke 12.

That's also exactly what everyone said would happen in 23, and we know how that turned out. Had the Final Stage time limit been the same, it would have been correct. That's a big if. So if the course stays EXACTLY the same and Nagano does just as good but a lil better than he'll win. There's always that "unknown" factor just like in 23 where the final stage was made 5 seconds shorter. So now we're backt o saying, oh ya Nagano can do it. What's stopping them from lowering the time limit to 35?! Or what if they introduce a new obstacle and he fails it just like he failed the pipe slider in 22, when we said he'd make the final stage again? HUH HUH HUH?!!!! ANSWER ME In all seriousness, I hope he DOES make it I just don't like to get my hopes up.

Had he not done stage 1 twice in 23 due to poor obstacle failure he would have had that last bit of energy to whack the button and the job would have been done.
Now in december he will rectify it!

As someone mnetioned earlier, Nagano had to run the 1st stage twice and that may be the reason he came up just short- that and the 2 seconds they hacked off. IF things stay the same, and I think they will for #24, Nagano as well as a few others, have a great chance to get to the final and win. But there are so many uncertainties o the course- one little mistake and you're done. I thought Levi looked strong, but again hasn't figured out the shin-CH.
I would say based o the last few tournaments, Nagano, Kanno, and Yuuji have the best chance with Takeda, Okuyama, Kenji and maybe Levi with outside shots. But you just never know...

I don't think running the first stage twice was that straining to him. He didn't show it in any other stages and I personally don't think it would be that tiring to run it, wait an hour, then run it again.
Just saying.

Only people to me who could realistically at the moment BEAT the final are Nagano Yuuji and Takeda - Kanno needs to sort his rope climbing out, Lee might have a chance too at clearing it. (I'm not talking as in who can reach the final im talking who could flat out beat it as a obstacle).

I think there are 10-11 people who have a legit shot at going:
Nagano Takeda Yamamoto Kenji Levi Okuyama Kanno Yuuji Brian Lee David
Pretty much everyone who got to stage 3, i can see passing. Levi can pass i mean the rest of the obstacles involve jumping, and he's a freerunner ffs. he jumos pretty damn well. Only question for Levi is if he can pass Hang climbing, and I think he has the strength and will power to do so.
The only people I can see beating the Final Stage
Nagano Yuuji

Lol, that would be really ironic if Levi failed the Spider Flip.

Don't assume he would've won had e not run stage 1 twice. There are waaay too many variables to consider, he lost and that's that, let's not make excuses for him. Also, I doubt the course will stay completely the same. I'm betting stage 3 will have a nice little touch up aswell as stage 1, probably the time limit and a few obstacle tweaks.
