Thanks! I felt that we were mixing stuff in other threads. Now we have clear delineation where to put things. What's funny is that you mentioned last night the weather just as I was going to post from weather.com LOL So it's been raining like hell over there and Inui has been mentioning on twitter about the swampy conditions. We are expecting some dry weather tomorrow (Friday) and Saturday but rain returns on Sunday. Expect a swamp just like Sasuke 28.

Thanks Again Arsenette, but are we expecting raindrops like in SASUKE 8?

Thanks Again Arsenette, but are we expecting raindrops like in SASUKE 8? Right now it's swampy like Sasuke 28 (the mud pits and whatnot) so there will at least be mudpits all over the place that will make things a bit difficult and messy. I remember the last time they had photos of how bad it was and Inui is mentioning it's becoming an issue again. Now.. as for the tournament itself there was a bit of confusion as to exactly when (Saturday "day" or Sunday "day") because of the "Saturday the 2nd" comment. Saturday the 1st of June is expected to be "clear" while Sunday the 2nd they are expecting PM showers going into Monday. So.. if the tourney starts on Saturday "day" then they will be fine. If it's Sunday going into Monday they will be heavily rained on.

Shingo said that Sasuke starts on Saturday. He said that it's on Saturday and Sunday, so presumably he means that it will start on Saturday during the day and go into Sunday.

Ah okay Saturday going to Sunday. He screwed up by saying the "2nd" which threw everyone off. That being the case though they will have a break in the weather if the forecast so far holds true.

Shingo didn't say "2nd." Look again at my post in the other thread. He said "Saturday Sunday 2day," (exact quote) meaning that the tournament will take place on 2 days, Saturday and Sunday.

I hope that means saturday all day into sunday morning and Inui isn't taking a note from ANW and changing things.
I think it's more translation issue than changing what's worked for 28 tournaments prior

My apologies. They got great weather then. A bit swampy from the week's rain but they don't expect to be rained on. Whoot!

Sunday will be cloudy with a chance of rain. They are officially in the rainy season in the Kanto area as of the 29th so a generally cloudy day may have a few sudden showers.

Yuuji just posted a tweet that he's just about ready to leave for Sasuke's taping. So we're off!

Depending on who you ask, it may or may not be raining at Midoriyama right now. Yahoo Japan Weather has a thing where people can click how the weather is in their area. Currently two people say it's raining, nine say it's cloudy. Regardless, the closer they move to the evening, the higher the chances of rain becomes according to the forecast.

Suuuuuuuucks no matter what. Dew on everything is going to make things a bit tricky.. especially later in the day. Temps are "cool" over there as well correct? (unlike the friggin' hot as hell I'm having over where I live).

Rains been an issue during the day from what I gather. Right now I'm not sure they managed to get the tournament complete. Trying to get confirmation. Heck.. Kanno showed himself falling asleep inside a room (not sure if tent) with food in front of him.

I think they did get the tournament finished, based on a Facebook conversation with Shingo. Also, here's some speculation about how the All-Stars did. Not sure if this is where this belongs, so mods, feel free to move it or add spoiler tags.
I was chatting with Shingo last night. I knew better than to ask him how he did in the tournament, so I just asked him if he had fun. He responded that he's "very tired." This makes me think that at least one of the All-Stars went deep into the tournament. If they had all failed the first stage, they probably would just have left, like they did in Sasuke 22. He must have stayed for the whole tournament, so most likely, at least one of the All-Stars did well. Also, I suspect that Shingo himself did well. I don't think he would have been so tired just from being at the tournament the whole time. He often stays up pretty late. I often see him post on Facebook when it's about 2:30 AM in Japan. so, I doubt that he was tired just from being there and watching others compete. I suspect that Shingo did well in Sasuke 29. This is all just speculation, of course. We'll have to wait till the broadcast to find out for sure.
Oh, and a little off topic, but Shingo said that he is now preparing for a marathon next Sunday. Busy guy.

Read of this what you will but the set designer guy Nobu Horita tweeted this photo and it says that the 3rd Stage was starting soon (at about 8:00 PM JST). Provided that these people are tweeting the photos soon after they take them, it sure seems like they are also doing taping kind of late into the night today too. p.twipple.jp/kjyUZ

So either a rain delay happened or they actually did do a 2 day thing (to combat the rain)?

Several sources point to them having planned a two day taping from the very beginning.
