No
freakin
way!!
I'm at a loss for words. If 27 is indeed the last competition, then I hope it's as epic as possible.

They'll have to fix it for someone to achieve Kazenseiha Fixd. But this is wayy sad. But alas, all good things have 2 come to an end.

Well here's how I see things:
SASUKE will end if: -Everyone loses before or at UCH -The All-Stars all fall in the 1st Stage -Somebody achieves KANZENSEIHA
SASUKE will NOT end if: -Someone reaches the final stage but misses like Nagano did or Kouji did in 12 or 24 respectively. -Two All-Stars make it deep into stage 3
Just some possibilities... I really hope this is not the end, and if it HAS to be the end they should just bring in the competitors with the greatest potential to win it... I would at least want the closure of seeing somebody beat the course because- to be honest, I'm not sure how the course could get ANY harder.

Sad to hear this will be the end of Sasuke. I guess all of G4's money won't be enough for another tournament.
I will be curious to see what G4 does. Whether they create their own show, or if they're just done thirsting on TBS' teet.

But why... why in HEAVENS would they have it in freezing March??!?! Did they see Okuyama last March? It was too cold for anyone to have a good grip.

It aired in march but it recorded like next week last year... Then again look at how they pulled 26 out of their a**.. I'm just really hoping the futility what we're seeing is just poor translation of a badly writen article and they're just saying sportsman and that other show we knew about ending despite it not being Sasuke related at all are canceled.... But that just wishful thinking... I'm just hoping that there is a Sasuke 27... and please G4... hold an ANW3 for Sasuke 27 and let 18 year olds compete... I don't want to miss out on literally the last chance... And I'm probably going to get hate mail... But for Stage 3.. I really hope they "set up the pins" again.. Like have that Arm Rings + Arm Bike from 18 and then the Rope Junction before the UCH... OK yeah I know, bad idea and it eliminates some cool obstacles.. But I just want to see the UCH and Stage 3 beaten before the show ends...

Also, if they auction off the sasuke set I really hope it goes into the right hands... ex. someone who will actually take that stuff and BUILD a replica of the course for all to try

I was gonna make a thread about that. What if they auctioned off the M9 stuff? What would people want? I'd like that trampoline from the jumping spider.

Damn. Well that sucks. I hope this news isn't true, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was. I will certainly miss Sasuke.

Well this is crushing news. But we all knew it was coming eventually. I'm just glad with how it went throughout its run. And like so many other people have mentioned already, they should at least have 27 as a conclusion to the series. And in addition to what will happen to ANW, I also wonder what will happen with everything else related to Sasuke (Muscle Park locations, future DVDs, etc.). I'd really like to see the legacy of the show last on for the big fans like us.

Man of course most of us see the tail end of it. I hope there is some translation issue or completely unreliable source but it seems Sasuke is pretty much finished unless there is a 27 and it gets like 20+% ratings. THE UCH NEEDS TO BE BEATEN!

So far from what I"m hearing the news is that it is cancelled. The big question is the format of the last show.. Btw.. I just glanced over the article that Ube posted on his blog.. it's really interesting stuff.. I've only heard bits and pieces of it before.. it's bigger than I thought and makes a lot of sense: modernmarketingjapan.blogspot.com/2010/08/marketing-japan-why-digital-tv.html

Yeah, I read the article and it makes loads of sense. I can see some of those things already starting to happen here too. I mean, I barely watch T.V. and I can get most of the shows I like to watch on the internet plus Netflix for movies! But anyway, I really hope they do one more Sasuke in March, and I'll probably try to make it a big going away party over here. You know what would be really epic? If Takeda came out of no where and beats the third stage, if not also achieving Kanzenseiha. I know, hopeful thinking, but that's really the most epic thing I can see happening right now. And if G4 does one more ANW really fast.. I will fly over there right now! I don't care if it costs me all my money.

I dont think G4 could pull off another ANW in this short amount of time. I'm guessing they will just send the top guys from last time i guess. Well, 27 better be the best one in a long time.

Watch 27 end like 19 it would be apt in a strange way!

Just imagine the pressure of being 100 THIS time. You are literally the last hope of Sasuke.... EVER.
Holy crap.
