In relation to doing some research for the "upcoming" Kunoichi based on that japanese wiki date ( ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/SASUKE) Does anyone know where the site is were Kunoichi is filmed. Wiki says on the same island, i don't possibly believe it could be filmed in the same spot, that means the crew would be setting up each course in only about weeks apart from each other. (Especially in the case of Sasuke 16 to Kunoichi 5, they took place a couple weeks apart from each other.) So does anyone know a location of this place so i can start searching the maps on things such as google earth, yahoo, etc. to see if this thing still exists, just so i can get an idea of were the show stands. (Considering no body can get monster 9 to reply) For those that want to, more Kunoichi "8" discussion can go here.

Its the same place I'm pretty sure. Last time I watched Kunoichi I noticed that big water pit that Stage 2 for Sasuke is over was there, but I forget which stage it was for Kunoichi. Those map sites would not be of use to you, they are only updated about once every couple years.

I'm still doing as much research as i possibly can. There's really nothing i can find going through blogs and translations. I'm trying to find a hole in the system somewhere so we can figure out if its cancelled or not. I hate being out on this cliff hanger not knowing the thing may still have potential or if they've nuked the program. If Kunoichi is officially gone, of course ill be sad, but at least i'll know. Until then my research will continue until i find something and if that means going through maps and crap i will. I do need a 100% confirmation on that though supersheep. Its hard for me to believe personally. It would take at least a week to take down the Sasuke course and replace it with the Kunoichi course and like i said they took place about 2 or 3 weeks apart from each other so that seems like a difficult task. I'm pretty sure Kunoichi 6 and 7 were in a different location than the previous ones. It just looked different. The 1st 5 may have been at the same site, but still hard for me to believe.

They can definitely put up the course in a week.
The outdoor DOORS 2009 tower was up the week before the latest SASUKE set was put up at Midoriyama. It was torn down and the SASUKE set was put up. They had, if I recall, eight days between when DOORS filming ended and SASUKE had to be put up. They hire crews of part-timers to do the menial tasks and it seems like for the most part things go smoothly, especially if it's something that's been going on for several years.

Good luck with your search, but dont waste your time on the map sites. Even if it was somewhere else and you found it, its not going to tell you anything. Several of us have been looking at the Sasuke site for a long time and we know 100% where that is and have never seen anything change for the simple fact they just dont update those maps.

Yeah, I used to check Google Earth every other day or so to see if the Sasuke course was up, then I found out they only update every... like... five years, or something ridiculous like that.

Yep I did the exact same thing, especially around filming time, then I forget how, but I got it to tell me when the photo was taken and it was like 2006, so i realized I was wasting my time.
oh btw lfrt,
I watched Kunoichi 6, I can say with about 99% certainty its the same site.

G4 broadcast or something else i was talking more about Kunoichi 1-4ish k#5 seemed like 16, but i was unsure, ill agree and that k#6 and k#7 did have that the same random tower thing sasuke has(the thing were the flying pillar comes out) that hasnt been done away with so there is hope for k#8 ill go with the same area therory i guess
