Let's limit general posts and jokes for now. It's not excessive or anything, but this is the news thread. We can use the "Breaking" thread for that. Replicate those posts there, because I deleted them before realizing we had a more general discussion thread. My b. They weren't important anyway

I really, really hope Inui understands how much all of us want Americans in 30. Seriously.

Well hopefully they'll wave me on this time to get a token American on the show haha. Probably better to have Drew represent instead of me though =P The level of tension now between the established shin-sedai, who obviously don't have to go through the selection process, and the rest of us is pretty significant right now. We're all waiting to see if we'll get called to the TBS building on Sunday and trying to figure out what to say and do in 30 seconds, especially since we know the pushup contest is a sham.

So they do update the Facebook page. Nothing out of the ordinary, just referencing the Osaka auditions over the weekend. There was a familiar face there, though. Spoilering due to size.

I got the invite to the Sasuke 30 auditions! I should be happy about it, but everyone I train with didn't get an invite and I'm the weakest of the bunch so I feel a bit bad about it. Tada and Yoshida definitely deserve a spot because they're crazy good and have proven themselves to be equals of the best of them. I really wanted to go with a group of friends this time because it helps to take the edge off. Also, all eyes and expectations are on me now. I'm not sure what I can do in terms of giving extra effort for everyone's sake, given that it's an audition, but I'll do my best not to let everyone down. Sunday will see 160 people down to about 37 at the whim of TV people, so lots of peril still awaits.

As for Tada and Yoshida I feel for them. I'm still hoping that they get a message before Sunday. Sucks they didn't have one in Sendai this year and they had to compete for those spots in Tokyo. Casting calls suuuuuuuuuuuck. Good luck on Sunday and keep us posted!

Well, a heck of a lot happened at the auditions. I'm not sure what I'm allowed to be talking about yet but I'll explain more about it in the future; after the broadcast at the latest. The official selections should be soon.

According to Lee En Chi's Facebook Fan pages, Taiwan's representative, Liao Long Zhun (廖龒隼), also joined SASUKE 30 Tokyo Audition. He also joined SASUKE ASEAN OPEN CUP 2014. This is the translation of that content:

Well I guess it's okay to say that I did meet Liao Long Zhun and Yukari Lin at the auditions since there are quite a few photos of me with them on facebook now haha. They were super nice people and I took them to Shinjuku for dinner and a bit of electronics shopping after the auditions. Next time I'm in Taiwan I'm definitely going to go and train with them.

It was a public holiday on Tuesday, so we all decided to go hang out at Okada's. To be honest, I haven't really watched Dragon Ball (I've seen an odd episode or two) so when the idea for the photo was pitched I wasn't sure what they were talking about until a video was found on youtube.
