Holy smokes.
First bit of actually exciting news for Sasuke 40 I've seen in a while, until now it's basically just been me getting annoyed at how they're constantly extending the application deadlines and hence delaying the tournament; I remember the applications released in April, then in spite of the previous tournaments having a 1 month turnaround time between applications opening and closing, the 40's closed in August 4 months after opening, then we found out that there were way more application rounds that went on until September or October. Everything's just dragged on for way too long lol.
I hope the air date is at least something like late November or early December given that the taping date is a touch earlier than previous years, but unfortunately I wouldn't be surprised if it's anywhere between 27-31 December given recent trends. I also hope they release the numbers soon after taping like older tournaments, as evidently they aren't taping in secret anymore like they did in 38 and 39.

Well they did confirm to allow an audience this year, so I hope they aren't taping in secret aha. I am surprised though that they are taping finally. Took long enough, but this is a pretty huge milestone. |

Took long enough, but this is a pretty huge milestone. I didn’t see that actually. That’s also dope, the last two tournaments have felt a little flat having no audience to cheer competitors on. I’m surprised though given the Covid precautions are still in place as well as there being no internationals. I would’ve thought that having an audience is probably the worst offender when it comes to said precautions. |

Internationals were probably different area of COVID issues (border) that they couldn't have accounted for when they initially started auditions. Keep in mind that they only opened up the borders on Oct 11th, and up until mid September nobody knew when Japan would open up their borders.
