I love how they mention the name Sasuke in the rap, then go out of their way in the Facebook post lol. I liked the rap. Made me actually look forward to Ninja Warrior. EDIT: Either I'm seeing things, or someone decided to have a little fun with the footage

Thanks, Scnoi! Of course we know that G4 is going to horribly mutilate the show, but I'm looking forward to seeing it anyway.

I'm really looking forward to this. Unlike most people here, I actually like Ninja Warrior. I do too. I hate the inaccuracies, but I like the way it's formatted. For example, I actually LIKE when some competitors are out of order, because it's more entertaining for new comers to see the course obstacle after obstacle. I prefer Sasuke, but I always looks forward to the Ninja Warrior version.

Im with both of you, I too like Ninja Warrior and I rather enjoy their reasons for editing the competitors the way they do, but sometimes they mess it up.
Looking forward to having 25 on my DVR so I can play it in chat rooms for my friends since they love it but can't always watch it.

While the Sasuke versions are light years better the Ninja Warrior broadcasts are still fun to watch.. Well first you get Sasuke on a much better screen and in HQ and not Stream Quality (Wish an HD recording would come out.. But by the time G4 announces when they're going to show it I'm thinking Chris's recording is the best we're getting... :\ )
When it's a new course seeing the course take people out and people getting slightly better.. Then again it's also fun seeing so much success early on, Like how everyone kept failing then Ryo ran and kicked the course's a** up until the Soritatsu Kabe

I'm looking forward to the behind the scenes shows they usually do. Given that they didn't do one for 24 I expect 25 to actually be something since they have ANW people that went. Thanks scnoi for that even if I hated the rap... LOL
August 14 ya'll. I wonder what the 25 reasons show will be like...

I dont really like the g4s version but ill still watch it at the 'place'. I dont have g4 anymore. They had me confused for such a long time on the numbers since they never went in order. Like take Sasuke 1 for example, they show #1, then next to go is #100. Huh? G4 would be much better if they actually went in order. It gives a hint if they show #100 early that hes gonna fail.. Like the time they showed Akiyama early in whatever tournament he failed the quintuple step.

I mean sure we got the Navi but I want to see that stuff on a big screen.. Plus I want to see behind the scenes stuff we didn't get to see.. Like the time they showed Akiyama early in whatever tournament he failed the quintuple step. Sasuke 9

I like Sasuke way better Ninja Warrior as well, even if I don't know what they're saying, but that's not much of an issue at all since you still know what's going on most of the time. Also, Sasuke is a lot more dramatic and suspenseful than Ninja Warrior IMO. Example: I just saw Sasuke 19 on Ninja Warrior today and although it was still okay, it doesn't come close to how well they play it out when it's aired in Japan. You simply don't get the same stuff out of it in the U.S. version. I guess that Ninja Warrior's decent, but I'd take Sasuke over it any day. Also, it's good to hear that they're "already" announcing 25 coming out on G4 before the end of the summer. As for the “25 Reasons to Worship Ninja Warrior”, I wonder if they'll include a memorable moment from each of the 24 previous tournaments and then something like "reason #25: Ninja Warrior 25, which starts now, only on G4." BTW, I'll bet anyone that they show their Ninja Warrior 25 commercial at the sometime during their all-day marathon today. Why else would they have it on for most of today?

Well there is a half hour gap between stuff. The commercial said that it all starts at 6PM with a one hour show (25 reasons) but Sasuke 25 show at 7:30pm. So my guess is that they have a Sasuke 25 preview (as the should for various reasons) THEN start with Sasuke 25.. then again.. They might shove some stupid sexy ladies or some ridiculous new program they want to promote between the start of the show and the end of the 25 reasons.. so who knows This is G4 after all

The button shifts when you're low on time to make it more difficult to press!
