What bothers me is how that has distorted the original broadcast of NW in this country. If they were left separate I doubt there would be any problems. I've just about ignored ANC1-4 until G4 started to distort the original TBS broadcast to delete other competitors that were shown in the TBS broadcast to reincorporate the cut ANW people that failed. Given that now the broadcast is basically useless worldwide now since it celebrates G4 as a station .. that only exists in the USA.. why would anyone outside of the USA even buy that? Does G4 even have a presence internationally? I'm wondering if any international market solely bought Ninja Warrior 23 simply because the Americans are absent from that one.

Other markets can only buy the G4 version that TBS sells, which currently does not include anything after 21 iirc.

That is when they reinserted Olivia and Kevin and spent a lot of time replaying their failure while announcing all of the G4 people in the show. The people TBS cut from the original broadcast.

Just out of curiosity, Anyone here watch from other territories besides America, Japan or Taiwan? (This means you Arty (Well.. And everyone else who does)). Because they just show the G4 episodes, How did they handle the ANC guys in 19 and 20 anyways?

Are you asking how they talk about who's next on the list of competitors?

What do they say in all those going to commercial previews that are mostly focusing on the american coming up, when it is their turn how do they react, stuff like that...

Well the earlier ones were not a problem.. 21 was the biggest one. 20 in Levi's defense.. he WAS the last man standing.

The actual broadcast was not as saturated as the specials were (and to my knowledge the international broadcasters don't buy the G4 specials). 21 .. that changes.

But technically 19 only had 3 eps on G4 so that's 2 thirds of the broadcast hyping the G4 guys And here we were complaining about 6 people going and now they have 10...

What's wrong with 10? Why can't it be 10 from each nation or region (And Japan gets like 40)? Is it not appealing enough to the Japanese viewers?

Dude, Sasuke is aired in: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Greece, New Zealand, Italy, Finland, France, Malaysia, Spain, Serbia, Denmark, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia
Unless you plan to have 200 competitors, that's a no.

Okay and are all those countries willing to fund money for 5 lucky and hopefully skilled guys to go to Japan and compete? Not really....

The topic of the excess of ANW competitors in Sasuke honestly is another topic and has been discussed. Plain and simple most of the Sasuke viewers don't like it but TBS already edits them out of the show. If ya'll want to discuss that in detail try to put that in another thread. This one alone is going to get bigger since it's a month (and a half) away from airing and has it's own problems.

I think they should make no more than 5 from each nation to be more fair if they do something like this. Unless you plan to have 200 competitors, that's a no. Wouldnt it be cool if they had 1 tournament with 1000 competitors? That way many of us could also get a chance to compete! The taping would probably go for like 180 hours LOL

The taping would probably go for like 180 hours LOL Think about it.. how would it be special for whoever wins? It's like playing Starcraft.. if you throw enough zergs at it you will win.. there's no glory in that. When I know someone won.. it was everything from skill to luck and everything in between. Part of the mystique about Sasuke is being picked to even participate.

I'm just saying some of the American's have more potential than some of the Japanese non big name competitors. I don't see a big deal with there being 10 US guys. If the problem is that the Japanese people don't want to see 10 Americans then why do you think G4 splits the Americans and the tournament? It works both ways.
