The Joke Competitors

[Messup434]

First of all, I've added a poll simply to say whether you would like to see a return of the joke competitors.

Then you can also post whichevery person you'd like to see a comeback from.

I would most want to see Mr. Octopus compete again, because he's entertaining, actually has some skill and liked competing.

The guy with the octopus every tournament up until 28. He never got farther than the third obstacle.

I don't care either way. I just think it's an honest awesome miracle Sasuke is even on anymore.

Minoru Kuramochi (a.k.a. Tako Tencho a.k.a. Mr. Octopus) is one of my favorite competitors of all time on SASUKE, despite being a joke competitor. I don't know why, but his presence and that of having several other joke competitors is something I've missed seeing as much in the current era (the only one we regularly have now is Torisawa).

There was a user here who used to have a badass signature titled "the Sasuke anti-Allstars" with a photo collage of Sasuke's 6 most notorious joke competitors.

I really miss seeing Mr. Octopus' runs. Anyone know why he stopped competing?

Probably a combination of TBS trying to get rid of all things Monster9 and he was seen as from that time as well as getting up there in years.

Safety and health issues could be a reason.
The first time I saw the Long Jump in 29 my first though is that how would Aoki perform there XD

Rising era got rid of them as they didn't see the need for them which is a shame. Never thought I'd say I'd miss Higuchi and the M9 era..

Well let's just say this is one part of the M9 era we want back, if nothing else. They put the entertainment and charm into sasuke. You know they got no chance but it's fun to see them go

duh it makes it more entertaining

I would say Kyan Yukata is a joke competitor. He makes fun of his own fails

Except for the fact he's a celeb competitor, most of them don't usually do well anyways so it's just run of the course (pun not intended)
