So the show's taped this week, maybe I can presume the show will air next month?
And gonna wonder if the tackle gets adjusted to not make it too taxing for some competitors...

So the show's taped this week, maybe I can presume the show will air next month? And gonna wonder if the tackle gets adjusted to not make it too taxing for some competitors... The first question is more suited for a different thread but traditionally, Inui (being the only editor for the show, on top of his other projects since he has his own full-time production company) takes about six weeks to edit the show after taping. Given that time period, late March, maybe early April. But we'll know for sure when it's officially announced. Seeing as it's only just taping this weekend, we have a little while. The second bit is more on topic and I agree. I thought given the time limit was knocked down five seconds the heavier Tackle boxes were a little overkill.

A couple random pictures just got posted on the Facebook (can't really see obstacles besides final stage):

I zoomed in to try and see the 3rd stage. I can see the pipe slider, which was pretty much confirmed, but I think I can see the Sidewinder. Also, it almost looks like the drum hopper after it, but it's really hard to tell. Last thing I saw, was a break point, near the end of the 3rd stage. I can't tell if it's at the Cliffhanger, or if they added a break point between the Cliffhanger and the Vertical Limit. Doesn't even look like the Cliffhanger is there yet, but construction is still going on.
Edit: After looking more, that break point is right before where the Cliffhanger would go.

I liked the tricky drops in Sidewinder R Kai, and I wouldn't be surprised if there was something added to bump it up just a little more

That startline looks really nice. I like the bleacher section rather than seats. That way people won't freak out about "omg only # amount.. that means top # amount?". LOL

LOL I think that's more a case of Inui being onto us to try to stop us trying to figure things out even when there isn't anything, remember when he blurred out the seats in the 32 Navi?

I gotta say, it really has just now hit me that Sasuke 33 is happening. Seeing that start line sinked it into my brain. Usually I'm checking off each calendar date waiting for taping to happen. This wait wasn't bad at all. Reminds me of when I first started watching live during Sasuke 24/25.
Gun to my head, I say we maybe see a new lead up to roller hill, a new motor obstacle, and a tarzan rope replacement at best. I don't see them knocking anything else out of Stage 1. It'd be nice if there was a killer along the lines of 25's Circle Slider after the Wall, but I actually think that'd be overkill after seeing 32. Flying Chute/Slider Jump/Circle Slider were all awesome late game sweepers (Slider Jump would definitely take up too much time with 32's Stage 1 though), but the Tackle kinda does a good enough job at the end of Stage 1 now with the wall... but I fear it will grow stale.
Stage 2 I'm hoping for some good adjustments. Kunoichi has some new obstacles, so I'd expect to see some here. This stage definitely needs help. Personally I want the every single obstacle changed here (honestly it's so boring, pre Sasuke 28 had the best Stage 2's), but I'd settle for like two.
Stage 3 I expect to be the same, and I'm ok with that. Probably a couple minor tweaks to the same obstacles though.
Hype is back. (^:

He blurred them out because of clears.... In a swerve kind of way, he blurred out empty chairs since there weren't any, which led people to speculate who could have cleared, and then they found out they were speculating about empty seats the whole time

Is it just me, or is there no break point between the Flying bar and the Sidewinder?
