I missed the Akko Gundan, I hope they will be back soon. - Said no one ever I want Yoshiyuki Ogata to come back as he's literally a world class rock climber - all he needs is a bit of Dragon Glider practice and he could go very far. The rest? Good riddance. The lady who was on the sidelines was obnoxiously annoying in both 38 and 39. I'm still happier with the absence of RAMPAGE Exile even if they have been replaced by other 'Exile' members. I see not much problem with the Exile members, though. |

I see not much problem with the Exile members, though. Each to their own, but for me (and potentially others) it’s the fact that they take up three spots rather than one, and are kind of deadwood in the sense that they have almost zero chance of clearing (unlike competitors like Snow Man, Darvish etc.), don’t even seem to take Sasuke seriously/have super bland on-screen personalities, nor do they add any sort of comical benefit to the broadcast as they’re not joke competitors either. They’re just sort of ‘there’. Hell, even Inui knows this as he started digesting their runs in spite of their celebrity status, and they very possibly didn’t get invited for 40. |

Just wanna say I find it funny ABC Z's and Darvish's previously "sidekicks" have both kind of overtaken them in the spotlight. I don't think anyone would have guessed that all those years back The head of the Golden Bombers is also competing wearing #59 Yea, I noticed that too. I guess it was a good call inviting him as a replacement for Darvish. Though, as much as the next guy, still really bummed that Darvish didn't get to compete this year. I hope Kyan does well too, even though seeing him clear the 1st stage seems rather unlikely imo. |

Same, I've actually grown to really appreciate Darvish's presence as he respects the game and the competitors more than your typical celebrity contestant. He got pretty good over the years too. |

Same, I've actually grown to really appreciate Darvish's presence as he respects the game and the competitors more than your typical celebrity contestant. He got pretty good over the years too. He’s easily the most passionate celebrity out there, or at least was as I noticed he went from posting loads of training videos to next to none after 39 aired. Some of that was likely due to his injury/illness but still. Either way people hated on him back in the day because he was in effect one of the only celebrities who got the whole ‘too high numbers, too much screen time’ treatment so he was an easy pick. Now there are far more egregious examples like the excessive joke competitor roster, or far less interesting celebrities in general, the hatred towards him has taken a back seat. Only now are people realising that as celebrities go, he’s one of the closest things to a normal competitor we could get. I’ve never been a the biggest fan of Darvish purely because his overreactive nature can get annoying at times, but I’m glad he’s not public enemy number 1 anymore on this forum. It just goes to show how no matter what people will always find someone to hate on lol. |

www.tbs.co.jp/sasuke_rising/players/So I surprised that Akiyama, Kane, and Hashimoto are back, also some of foreigners like Jessie, and some of women that once crossed from sister show like Oshima.

Oshima has been competing on SASUKE for a short minute. She actually almost cleared the first stage a couple of times. |

Yeah I agree, I'm personally neutral on them, but at the same time you're not really missing much by not seeing their runs. At best they get to the Dragon Glider and even then like 70% of celebrities have begun doing that anyway. The only noteworthy thing about them is that they have a really bizarre statistic where two of them make it to the Dragon Glider while one fails earlier. As in 37 had Zin fail the Rolling Hill while the other two reach the Dragon Glider, 38 had Urakawa fail the Fish Bone while the other two reach the Dragon Glider, and 39 had Kaisei fail the Quad Steps while the other two reach the Dragon Glider. Fun statistic, but otherwise you can grab a snack or take a bathroom break. |
