While I do agree that they shouldn't have been cutting the Japanese guys last tournament... their response shouldn't be "ok no more foreigners lol." It was the editing that was the problem. It wasn't as much that as much as Mike Steele posting course pics and spoiling Nagano's celebration on Facebook and leading people to think Nagano failed the Quad Steps, and since he came with Brent and Kacy that caused backlash for all americans not named Drew Drechsel... Also besides cutting japanese guys another problem was the "HEY LOOK ANW!" everywhere, like Ryo and Kawaguchi profiles...

Or editing decisions like giving Jun Sato the Shunsuke treatment and digesting his entire run, especially in Stage 3 where he went the furthest of the Japanese

I love being the guy that gets to say "I told you so" about Isaac. Hated him since I met him in ANW5.
Also people call him Jesus, but he literally dressed up like jesus in ANW5 to get chosen as a walk-on. Certainly thinks of himself as jesus too.

After seeing Isaac say that on Inui's Instagram photo, I reacted poorly. (Called him the C-bomb.)
I regret saying it there. I don't regret calling him that. Cause that's how I feel, Isaac is a C-Bomb. He treats everyone that supported him like crap and now there's not a single Sasuke Enthusiast who likes him, just the General Viewers who don't know what happened. He's a terrible person.
But I shouldn't of said what I said on Inui's photo.
So I appologize for saying it there. Arsenette especially. And also Drew who was tagged in a comment there and David who commented on it
Edit: nevermind Geoff liked my comment so idc

I literally just realized something with the numbers... This is the first time... in SASUKE history... that Shingo actually is the LAST all star to run the course. Granted the group has shrunk to 3 (because Yamada and Takeda... HEY the SASUKE 5 all stars! XD) but I only just now looked it up. Shingo will be the last all star to run the 1st stage.

I gotta admit I laughed a smidge at the C-bomb. I am normally one to argue against generally derogatory slurs like that but damn that was hilarious. It was just so pointed, concise and was so perfectly placed right after his comment.
You get a pass in my book.

I still can't understand the Isaac hate, hence i'm not really on to ANW...
And oh boy Kaneda's pregnant, that's one big news! Gonna wonder if she can run the course 2 years later on kunoichi or something...

To the post above, I think others can explain better. Been reading about Isaac for awhile, and... all I gotta say is: Let's find out what happens when his million runs out. And now let's hope NBC finds a way to... broadcast this. That would be nice. Although it won't happen. EDIT: Someone beat me to it.

Ryoichi Tsukada went from looking like Spongebob to looking like some anime villain

Drew looks like someone trying to overcompensate for the drugs kicking in at the worst possible time.
