For the record, both TBS and Inui tweeted the video of Yamada attempting the Third Stage, so whatever happened between Yamada and Inui couldn't have been too serious. The one from 29? Not sure why that's being brought up again.

No, the video of him "testing" the stage in 29. The daytime stage 3 attempt

Inui just randomly brought it up today. Probably because it's the closest he'll ever get to the stage again. He even mentions its the first time in 10 years.

It's funny how everyone is so quick to assume that there had to a problem between Yamada and Inui or whoever just because he was taken off the list.

Well he was commenting on it because it has 45k views is all. It's the highest views on the channel I believe? And yeah it's been confirmed by several sources already. I didn't think it was a question personally. Now it's just figuring out how much they are going to edit him out. Might just be as a cheerleader to the Black Tigers. I don't think they'll cut them out since they put them on the list already. We'll find out soon™ though.

I only just recently saw that attempt. Technically he went offcourse on the Iron Paddler but meh I can't see him pass the crazy cliffhanger at all and that clearly proved it

Ok so to Morimoto who is in fact, #3000. Had this on the wrong thread and I deeply apologize. What do you think is going through his head? I'm sure the pressure is at its peak for him. Hope he can stand it.

Saw this earlier on another thread (since been deleted). But it is worth nothing. Seems they updated the website with bios for the guys to watch:

Took a bit of liberty with the machine translations to describe their "must-watch" list. What can I say? I'm bored. Don't read it if you don't care. No. 100 Yusuke Morimoto -- "Sasuke-kun" being given No. 100 for having the best performance of Sasuke 29 (being the only competitor to defeat the Crazy Cliffhanger and nearly defeating the current era's Stage 3) and for being the top competitor for the Japanese team, helping bring home the silver medal in the inaugural ASEAN Cup. His recent success for the seven-time veteran (clearing Stage 1 for the first time in 28) has made him the current "Ace" at only 22. No. 98 Kazuma Asa -- The living embodiment of the "soul of Sasuke" as evidenced by the literal saying on his shirtless back, wears his heart on his sleeve and showcases his emotions no matter the situation on the course. He cries tears of joy when he succeeds, he cries tears of bitter disappointment when he fails, this member of the New Generation leaves it all on the line and is also celebrating success as part of Team Japan in the ASEAN Cup. No. 94 Ryo Matachi -- This New Generation star is enjoying some newfound popularity overseas thanks to being selected to compete for the Japanese in the ANW special last year, showcasing his agile style. Although he has the utmost confidence in defeating Stage 3, the Backstream has proven to be his recent nemesis, contributing to his two past time out performances on Stage 2. He hopes his swimming training gives him the confidence (and the lung power) to finally exact revenge. No. 96 Hitoshi Kanno -- He may have achieved "kanzenseiha" body-wise, but the "muscle" of Sasuke has gone through two consecutive failures of the Crazy Cliffhanger. Can the new father and new husband bounce back from his latest awkward failures and prove the muscles aren't all for show? No. 93 Yuuji Urushihara -- By being the only person to defeat the Iron Castle two times, Urushihara is no doubt the reigning "King of Sasuke", however he's struggled with the Backstream in the past as well, causing his 2nd Stage failure in 29. Has the king's pride been wounded to an unrecoverable level, or has he regained enough for an unprecedented third victory? Sasuke All-Stars ( Makoto Nagano, Shingo Yamamoto, Toshihiro Takeda, Bunpei Shiratori) -- The All-Stars have carved much of Sasuke's history, but even after the retiring of first champion Kazuhiko Akiyama and "Mr. Sasuke" Katsumi Yamada, the four remaining men still seek to compete. Yamamoto has bounced back from the collapse of the All-Stars in 28, clearing Stage 1 for the first time in his last four attempts. As Nagano and Takeda look to return to form after their shocking Stage 1 failures in 28 and 29, another man looks to return after a near-six year absence. Not since Sasuke 21 have we seen Bunpei Shiratori as a competitor, but here he returns for one more go. Yamada's Black Tigers -- The group of men who have accepted the daunting task of carrying on the dream of Mr. Sasuke, look to repair their reputation after their disappointing (if not inevitable) performance since being brought together at the hands of Master Yamada. They return to put their name out as an elite group of competitors threatening to take the crown. No. 35 Masashi Hioki -- His first-ever Stage 1 clear brought emotion in the form of tears of joy from his family and friends. He is no longer the lucky bastard who received a toast from Shiratori at his wedding, he seeks to further etch in name in the history books as a credible competitor. No. 67 Tomohiro Kawaguchi -- This STQ'er truck driver returns to the competition after being absent for the last two tournaments. He's not found success since his Stage 1 clear in 24, he looks to improve on that, now in his sixth competition. No. 79 Kenji Darvish -- Even though his occupation may be drummer for an "air" rock band, Darvish is completely serious about completing Stage 1. Can the facepaint propel him to a First Stage clear? No. 91 Drew Dreschel -- The 30th Anniversary is nearing air, and never has a foreign competitor defeated the Iron Castle. His performance under the Team USA umbrella during the ASEAN Cup showcased he might have what it takes to make it all the way, earning the gold medal both as an individual and as a team for the US, winning himself a spot as the sole American representative this competition. Can he showcase the skills that's made him a threat in Vegas?

Not trying to sound like an a** in correcting you, but Morimoto first cleared Stage 1 in SASUKE 27. In fact, he didn't even compete in SASUKE 28. They seriously said that?!? o___0 I thought that was just a forum joke. In any case, thanks for making the Google Translate disasters more understandable to fellow English speakers TCM.

I did see the mistake of Morimoto first clearing in SASUKE 28 when he wasn't even there. SASUKE 27 he failed the metal spin as I remember it. Anyways Morimoto in SASUKE 30. Everyone is expecting him to be the one at the final stage but I still have my money on Nagano. Either way.
