It's great to hear news again! It explains why twitter is suddenly filled with SASUKE training pictures. I can't wait!

/e cheer there better be some gaijins dammitI'll take Drew and Anastase for consistency's sake (just bring them alone if you need to) because trying to shoehorn Jessie may just be asking for too much nowadays.

I remember Drew saying he was hearing rumors about Jessie in 34, but that was quite a few months ago at this point.

Wish they'd still keep an open invite to Geoff. Also Alexander Mars, Andre Sihm, etc. deserve to come back

Gaijins I'm expecting in 34 (Please note that after TBS got heavily berated for 33's lack of foreigners,I'm expecting a 50/50 mix between domestic and international competitors) Let's be a little more realistic here: Sasuke has always had at best, a sprinkling of foreign competitors throughout its history; the original ANW era where 10% of the entire field were American was seen as outlandish by many. No amount of criticism will cause Sasuke to do significantly more than ten; you'll have a little less, maybe a little more if they're incredibly generous. 32 got by with 'just' eight. 25 they explicitly pointed out what prefecture/country people represented, and even that only featured seven non-Japanese competitors. There will never be a Sasuke tournament where literally half the field is under the foreigner label. Never mind about 80% of those names would be pipedreams and complete impossibilities. Let's also not turn this into a predictions thread any further than it's leaning.

When will the prediction thread be made No one has dibs of any sort regarding threads. If someone wants to make a prediction thread, they are free to do so.

Let's also not turn this into a predictions thread any further than it's leaning. Well,maybe in the future,if SASUKE starts being treated as an Olympic-caliber kind of sport,we could get that in the future,but I think that it'll require egging Inui on,which I think can be done. Also,I wasn't trying to turn this into a prediction thread,and I apologize if you think I was trying to do that.

I don't have a lot of info, but I haven't heard anything about any foreign competitors. I know myself and some other foreigners did not make it to tryouts. If they were really trying to go in the opposite direction because of the backlash, you'd expect us at least to get that far so they could be like "look, we gave them a shot!"
Dunno what that means for veteran foreigners though. I'm personally expecting Drew as the only American representative.
Also, someone let me know when applications for audience tickets are available. Definitely will apply. Fingers crossed.

It's too early to predict whether Geoff, Brent, Kacy and even Jessie Graff are to be in this competition. I am certain Drew will be there.

I wonder why no one mentions about Caldiero here.
