Favorite Sasuke Stage to Watch

[yamfriend]

In general, which of the 4 stages on Sasuke do you enjoy watching the most?

Me=Stage 1, mostly for the joke competitors and seeing them fail.

[Badalight]

Well, 1 is my favorite stage, but 4 is the funnest to watch. Just because of how epic it's made out to be.

Stage 2 because well i dont know why but i am going to say stage 2

Stage 1 is probably my favorite because I like seeing the joke competitors, but I also like seeing the All-Stars in stage 4.

You mean Nagano?

I kid I kid.

I said Stage 3. Even though it's the slowest stage out of the four, it's really fun to watch and to me it would be the funnest of the stages to attempt as well.

For me, Stage 1, for the same reason it's my favourite Stage in general. It's the stage that's best suited to me, and I enjoy watching competitors attempt the obstacles I know I'd be best at, in the knowledge that, half the time, I just might be able to do them better ^_^ Yes I know, arrogant and slightly mean; sorry, that's just how I am.

Stage 1 because of Pants guy!

[HarlequinKnight]

Stage three simply because of the change of pace. People are allowed to take their time and for some reason it makes it that much more interesting for me.

Stage 1 because now with Shin Sasuke it's become almost a crapshoot with who makes it through to Stage 2. It's fun cheering on people who you want to see clear it (i.e. Shingo).

Yeah, but especially Shingo, even though he's only made it that far twice.

Stage 1 man. It's where everything first starts that builds up hype of who and who isn't going to make it.

Stage 3

[jfeathe]

I like Stage 4 the most because I love being on the edge of my seat.

The other 3 tie for second because they're all unique in their own way.

I especially loved Sasuke 1-4's second stage. It was a blast seeing people bust through the last 3 obstacles in 20 seconds after a shaky Spider Walk.

Stage 1

Mainly out of the fact that it defines what Sasuke is and has become over the years. Granted, many of the recurring competitors (all-stars included obviously), train hard for the other stages more so than stage 1; but stage 1 is the make or break point that determines whether anyone gets to go on to the other stages.

[davidyko]

Minority opinion here: Stage 2. At least before Shin-Sasuke it had some really close calls (time-wise), and it's starting to be like that again. Watching everyone fail the Salmon Ladder is great too.

Stage 1:-

Most of the favourites will do well in stage 2 & 3. But very often, especially in the shin-cliff era, their biggest danger is stage 1. ( egs. sasuke 19 / 20 / 22 )

The 1st stage is also where we may get to see new "unknowns" ( potential future stars ) suprising us.

The 1st stage also has the most time-outs. It is exciting till the end.
* spoiler : Kawahara made no mistakes, cleared everything 1st time but his slow spider walk costed him. David C & Mr. Handball ( in 22 ) are further examples.
Others like Brian O & Bunpei in 21 barely made the red button in the 1st stage. Thrilling till the end.
