Ill say nagano for this. Yamamoto close behind. Akiyama was obvious. And Takeda... Yamfriends theory was right

After seeing some many people clearing Stage One, Nagano's fall of the Circle Slider was extremely unexecpeted.

After seeing some many people clearing Stage One, Nagano's fall of the Circle Slider was extremely unexecpeted. Nah.. anyone remembering his Sasuke 17 run would have called this fail. Seriously.. he almost face-planted in 17 and this ring was definitely higher. My shock was Takeda only because I thought he had it. I only remembered the theory until AFTER it was reminded to me.

Yamamoto wasn't unexpected because I knew he'd do something stupid. He never actually fails obstacles the right way When Taked fell my head went with him, and I just stared at my lap, and then realized I had a lot of crumbs on me.

Shingo. I didn't expect him to screw up that way, of all the things he could have done. Well, maybe we should have suspected it, since he's always had the huge jump technique on that thing. I knew (we all knew, I think) Akiyama's chances of passing were quite slim, and when Nagano's run started the height factor on the Circle Slider was worrying me a lot. In the end, when I saw Takeda on the Salmon Ladder, I knew something was going on. So yep, Shingo surprised me once again.

Hard for me to chose between Takeda, Nagano, and Yamamoto since IMO all their failures were surprising.

Had to go with Yamamoto on this one. I guess with the way he's still got the older version of the Balance Tank in mind, he decided to make the jump....which of course proved fatal for this one.

Well, I could have predicted Akiyama. Yamamoto never did the Balance Tank right. Takeda failed the normal Salmon Ladder. Nagano's I found shocking at first, but then I watched Ryo's run(I missed live Stage 1 and saw Nagano fail when they showed the compilation during Shingo's run.), I wondered how anyone passed it....

Nagano IMO. He passed it in 17, but he didn't here. More importantly, so many others had passed before him, so expectations were very high for him.

To be honest, it was a big surprise, but I wasn't as shocked at Nagano's fail as I was at Shingo's. Probably because I assumed that, once he'd gotten past the hard part of Stage 2, that he'd be in Stage 3 lol Very unfortunate. I hope they all do better in 26.
