Hopefully they'll retranslate them as well, as the subs were attrocious most of the time.(I'm asking too much in this case)

I wonder whether they will show Americans in 25 and 26. Wasn't it 26 that they edited them out and showed them separate on NBC?

ARSENETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTE! Sasuke is not yet dead!
I bet you guys this was 10000000000000000% a reaction to the reddit video.
Also the hidden news in this is that if Esquire is confirmed for 2017 then it will likely not be one of the axed NBC shows.
Edit: Or wait..... is this the reason why Sasuke 32 had the bad editing and ANW commercials?? NBC shows Sasuke and TBS will show ANW eventually? Looks like a step in the right direction to me. Kudos to Inui, I suspect he had a major part in the negotiations for all of this.

Esquire Network as of last year was in some 70-odd million homes, of course, that's not to be confused with actual viewers which doesn't even come close to that. Team Ninja Warrior across all airings in its first week scored over a million viewers, so if they're serious about this, the audience is possibly there. It's easy to get people to watch a premiere; it's sustaining that is the issue.
No way I'm expecting a million per tournament, but with the number of months they have until they air, this at least has to break network record unless they self-sabotage with a terrible air slot. And there's nothing on Esquire currently that would be more successful.

The terrible translations were part of what gave the show its charm... "His bald head gleams in the moonlight!" Yeah...it had its moments Exactly. Why bother perfectly translating obstacle details when you can learn about the "demonic plastic spider walk, lurking in the swamps of Midoriyama" or about the amazing brotherly relationship between Yamada and Nagano. Utter class. |

Fair play if the translations gave some sort of appeal, but I'll personally pass on the 'Yasushi Yamada' kind of errors.

Well this is convenient. We're recording the podcast tonight.
But yea, this is fantastic news. Esquire needs more shows and I think we're all in agreement that there's a demand for the original Ninja Warrior.
