Simply put, do we have any idea yet who the voice-over narrator and announcers will be for Sasuke 28?

Thanks! Is that also when they also tell who the announcers are announcing for? For example, Announcer A commentates for competitors 1-50 in Stage 1, Announcer B does Stage 2, etc.? Or is that something that needs to be figured out? Also, where can I find the names of the narrators for Sasuke? All I know is that there have been 3 different guys who've done it so far---the first one was for 1-15, the second one was 16 only, and the third one was 17-27 (or 28, that's to be determined).

Historically Seniority controls who does what. Highest ranked (er.. more famous/most respected, etc.) does the final competitors of the stage and the final stage/last stage high ranked people. As for names of all the announcers sasukepedia has always put the announcers in their order on each of the tourneys. (example: sasukepedia.wikia.com/wiki/SASUKE_27 ) P.S. there's been more than 3 announcers in the past 15 years

I think my wording on that was a bit vague. By "announcers", I mean the guys like Ogasawara and Keisuke who do the commentating live during the competition. By "narrators", I mean those ones during post-production who serve as a voice-over during competitor profiles, obstacle previews for each stage, etc.

I don't know how long he's been doing it so I don't know if the old tournaments had a different narrator... but for as far as I've seen back in japanese broadcasts it's been this guy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiyoshi_Kobayashi

I'm curious if he'll narrate again in 28 or if they'll get someone else. It's no big deal if he's not there, but it'll seem different. Even when I bought Sasuke 16 and heard the narrator for that competition, it was a weird adjustment. I'm just curious as to who narrated in that tournament, as well as the original narrator in the first 15 tournaments. IIRC it was posted somewhere on the forum once, but that was like a year ago.

Different producer. Different director. Trying to create (or re-create) a certain tone so they may try to spice things up by changing people.

I miss Tareki. I also remember watching the Japanese version of Viking and I liked that narrator (whose name I obviously cannot read) as well.
Does anyone know what Ichiro Furutachi is even up to anymore?

Furutachi became well-known partially because he was a wrestling announcer. He is the "main caster" of his own weeknight news show on TV Asahi, Houdou Station. www.tv-asahi.co.jp/hst/cast/He will probably never come back to SASUKE.

Ishii isn't the guy who played the "villain" in DERO!/TORE!, is he? I love those shows.

The sub announcer was Tomohiro Ishii 石井大裕. It was his first SASUKE.

Is he the announcer from Viking? Because the two sounded very similar.
