Probably an obvious one but Morimoto became the 2nd champion to be the only one in the Final stage and achieve Kanzenseiha. The other was Akiyama in 4 of course

<----- <----- <----- Ragivaru Anastazu (not sure how it's actually spelled). He's a Tahitian dancer from French Polynesia and had never heard of Sasuke prior to his appearance in Sasuke 31. Despite that, he still managed to go HAM on the course. He finished 1st Stage with the most time remaining and made it all the way to the Crazy Cliffhanger.

Tomo is only the 2nd man to fail the same version cliffhanger version that he had previously already cleared, sasuke sensei is the only other to do so.

Tomo is only the 2nd man to fail the same version cliffhanger version that he had previously already cleared, sasuke sensei is the only other to do so. Takeda failed the Cliffhanger in 16 after getting to the Devil Balanco in the previous tournament. Shingo and Takeda failed the first obstacle of the First Stage for the first time in their SASUKE careers. Takeda received #93 for just the second time. Akiyama remains the only champion to not have an appearance competing on the show cut from the broadcast and Yusuke is the only champion to have two cut appearances. Ragi (Wreath Man)'s the first in four tournaments to have a first-time competitor reach Stage 3. He continues the streak of only foreigners reaching Stage 3 in their debut tournaments. The last Japanese competitor to do so was Yuta Adachi in 17.

All of the competitors who became champion were #100 in the previous tournament. Eg Akiyama in 3 & 4, Nagano in 16 & 17, Yuuji in 26 & 27 and Morimoto in 30 & 31.

The past champion always cleared the first stage the tournament before a new champion is there. (Akiyama 16, Nagano 23, Yuuji 30)

In the tournaments where a new champion was born, the previous champion failed Stage 1. In 17, Akiyama failed Stage 1. In 24, Nagano failed Stage 1. In 31, Yuuji failed Stage 1.

Most of the time if someone achieves total victory, the tournament BEFOREHAND they would fail stage 2 (Yusuke: wall lifting/ Akiyama: Wall lifting/ Yuuji (first time): unstable bridge). The only time that isn't the case is Nagano (16 failed pipe slider/devil swing) and Yuuji the second time (26 failed half pipe attack)

Only 1/4 of contestants who attempted the CCH, cleared it in the 4 tournaments it appeared.

From topic Mathematical Breakdown of Stage 4 Times:
Morimoto now holds the record for fatest pace on both the Spider Climb and Tsuna Nobori. Morimoto is also the only competitor whose rope climbing ability exceeded the 0.65m/s required to clear Sasuke 28's modified Tsuna Nobori. (THis does not mean he'd be guarenteed to beat it, but indicates he is the only competitor thus far who has a chance to)

Stage 1 Clear Streaks (Competitors in bold have an active streak) *Takeda Toshihiro: 8 (11-18) *Nagano Makoto: 8 (11-18) *Shiratori Bunpei: 7 (11-17) *Okuyama Yoshiyuki: 7 (22-27, 29) *Yamada Katsumi: 6 (1-6) *Li En Zhi: 6 (21-26) *Kane Kosugi: 5 (1, 4, 6-8) *Yamamoto Shingo: 5 (11-15) *Nagasaki Shunsuke: 5 (14-18) *Hashimoto Kōji: 5 (23-27) *Ishikawa Terukazu: 5 (24, 26-27, 29-30) *Asa Kazuma: 5 (27-31) *Kanno Hitoshi: 5 (27-31) *Nakata Daisuke: 4 (8-11) *Yamada Katsumi: 4 (9-12) *Asaoka Hiroyuki: 4 (10-12, 14) *Yamada Kōji: 4 (15-17, 19) *Urushihara Yuuji: 4 (22-25) *Brian Orosco: 4 (21, 23, 25-26) *Urushihara Yuuji: 4 (27-30) *Matachi Ryo: 4 (27-30) *Morimoto Yūsuke: 4 (27, 29-31)
Stage 2 Clear Streaks (Competitors in bold have an active streak) *Takeda Toshihiro: 7 (11-17) *Okuyama Yoshiyuki: 6 (22-27) *Nagano Makoto: 4 (11-14) *Nagasaki Shunsuke: 4 (15-18) *Asa Kazuma: 4 (28-31) *Kanno Hitoshi: 4 (28-31) *Hasegawa Ken: 3 (1-3) *Ōmori Akira: 3 (1-3) *Kane Kosugi: 3 (1, 4, 6) *Nakata Daisuke: 3 (9-11) *Kobayashi Masaaki: 3 (12-14) *Jordan Jovtchev: 3 (8, 12, 14) *Shiratori Bunpei: 3 (15-17) *Nagano Makoto: 3 (16-18) *Takahashi Kenji: 3 (7, 16, 18) *Takahashi Kenji: 3 (23-25) *Li En Zhi: 3 (24-26)
(NOTE: Yes, I know some of these competitors haven't competed in years and are unlikely to ever compete again, but their clear streaks are technically active nonetheless.)
Other Facts/Statistics *Hioki is the second #31 to ever clear Stage 1 (the other one having occurred in SASUKE 1), and the first #31 to ever clear Stage 2. *Hioki is also only 1 of 2 people to have a start number that is the same as the competition number to clear Stage 1, and the first to clear Stage 2 under the same conditions (#2 cleared Stage 1 in SASUKE 2, and #31 cleared Stages 1 and 2 in SASUKE 31). *Hioki's Stage 3 appearance in SASUKE 31 is also only the third time ever in which Stage 3 was reached by a competitor with a start position in the 30s; the other two were Miura Eiichi in SASUKE 2 (#30) and Hioki in SASUKE 30 (#2935). *This tournament marked the best known appearances for #21 (6th obstacle of Stage 1), #31 (4th obstacle of Stage 3), #34 (5th/6th obstacle of Stage 2), and #91 (Kanzenseiha). *This is fourth tournament in a row in which nobody failed a Stage 3 obstacle before the Crazy Cliffhanger.

To be fair, I have a few dozen different documents on my laptop regarding SASUKE information. Don't be surprised.

A list of "medals" for each run. Gold meaning that competitor made it the farthest in a given season, Silver meaning they were second farthest, etc. Blue names indicate active competitors. Bonus Sasuke fact: of the 75 competitors have have so far run Sasuke Vietnam, 26 have the surname "Nguyen"

Asa Kazuma has the farthest average distance of all current competitors, reaching Stage 3 a total of 4 times in 6 competitions. Of all competitors who have ever made it to the 3rd stage, Kishimoto Shinya has the lowest average distance, clearing Stage 1 only 1 time in 5 attempts. Current competitors in blue:

Kazuma Asa became the 3rd person to fail the same obstacle 4 tournaments in a row. The others are Yasuo Aoki (19-22, Rokudantobi) and Motohide Oya (20-23, Jumping Spider). yamfriend, are you forgetting our champion on your list? He wasn't in SASUKE 28. All of the competitors who became champion were #100 in the previous tournament. Eg Akiyama in 3 & 4, Nagano in 16 & 17, Yuuji in 26 & 27 and Morimoto in 30 & 31. Akiyama was #100 in 2, not 3. Yuuji wasn't #100 in 23. If you change this to #99, however, this works. In addition to becoming the youngest champion, Morimoto also had the longest span between his debut and his kanzenseiha (13 tournaments after his debut; same applies for time, 8 years 3 months). 3 of the 4 champions (Nagano being the other) failed the Second Stage before their first kanzenseiha. In fact, Akiyama and Morimoto timed out on the Wall Lifting before their victories... 16 years apart! Morimoto's victory was the first to not take place (taped and/or aired) in the fall.
