Rider: Although it wasn't the case for Rising, they could still hypothetically send the Last Man Standing to 29. Or anyone. It's NBC though. So not holding breath anytime soon.

I mean it seems like this is going to be like ANW4 where they set up a midoriyama replica instead of it being solely a trial like ANW1-3, yes they could send anyone but it's not the whole point of this tournament is what I'm saying

Also: Sign ups (Still 21 and over though)! Aaaaaannnd now it's closed. I'm guessing that someone goofed and opened the application too early. (I saw it earlier today, and can confirm it was definitely open and not pointing people to the G4 site.)

Well given the NBC site saying it was April-May, 2013 for aps they might have had the link for reference to those from last year watching? That's my guess. I'm concerned it's late this year.. if the ap closes in May they won't tape until June.. Let's hope Sasuke 29 tapes late summer or they will be out of another Japanese competition again.

Earlier today, the site (the mycasting one) said regionals would be in April and May (locations and exact time to be announced), with the finals at Vegas occuring in June, which was very odd given the application listed a start date in April and an end date in May. You could actually hit an "Apply" button and start filling out an application with about eight or so steps. The date confusion really makes me think the site wasn't ready to go, which is why it's closed now and pointing at that G4 website.

Odd they are pointing it back to the G4 site given it's going to be gone by that time.. someone's getting fired today.. LOL

Goooood, they're pointing the signups to something that won't exist when they actually start taking them, now through confusion there will be less people getting through, meaning they'll be short on competitors and have to start taking some people a bit under 21 I mean uhhhm... that's horrible... Right... that's what I meant... *runs away* In all seriousness, wow... WTF are they doing... (besides many many drugs)

Luckily I live in the midwest - the only area where not enough people were accepted and they had to borrow from different regions.

Us 20 years and under will finally have our day. So since applications end in late May we can expect the filming to take place when? June? July? Probably wouldn't end up being linked to Sasuke 29 but at least I'll actually be able to go watch this time.

I'll keep you posted if I hear anything on that front. My main concern as always is the connection between ANW and Sasuke in Japan. Edit: ramblingrican.blogspot.com/2013/02/american-ninja-warrior-5-announcement.htmlWrote blog on it. If I find more stuff I'll update that as well.

June 10th-17, 2013 www.ANWTryouts.com I think that's said like that as more of a "Be free to be to vegas in this time" and probably will have a some time interviewing everyone, I know you protested watching ANW4 arsenette but I will tell you this, they had a lot of profiles with interviews in vegas (among other shots like letting people freerun or having a dramatic shot of the Sasuke vets standing on a rooftop), so I think they probably want people in vegas early so they can interview everyone EDIT: And BTW arsenette I think the guy Nagano is laughing at the fail of isn't one of the actual competitors but rather the TBS reporter they sent with Nagano who we saw run in the Overseas Special, if you need his name I think it's Akaogi Ayumi (That's in japanese order BTW, I know you often westernize order on your blog)
