Is SASUKE 40 worth watching?

[sackeshi]

I hate that I'm making this post but, is it worth 3-4 hours of my day? How is it different than the past 4-5 tournaments. Why do you do this TBS give them proper funding 😓

In my humble opinion it's 1000x better than anything we've seen in the past decade, and in terms of results it may well be the best tournament ever bar very few exceptions.

I would personally watch the Paravi edit if you have the time, it's about twice as long, but pretty much the only negative against 40 (bar the course, obviously....) was the pretty terrible editing and digesting choices in the main broadcast. There were a lot of runs that got skipped that you'd probably want to see so imo for a hardcore Sasuke fan I'd say Paravi is worth it. Besides, you can just skip over all the joke competitors you don't want to see anyway. Something those of us that watched it live obviously didn’t have the luxury of being able to do…..

If you're going in completely blind of the results: Absolutely 100% yes, it's one of the most mind blowing tournaments to ever be held and it's worth seeing everything that happens with your own eyes.

If you already know the results: Still yes as there's more impact seeing the runs for yourself, but it's not as integral.

It's got it's flaws but it truly is an awesome tournament. Hope you have fun watching it!

Yeah definitely, results are so amazing you will forgive them poor editing.

Yeah, watching it blind was an awesome experience and I wish I could have it again. If it wasn't for the editing, I'd probably put it up there with SASUKE 8 or 17. So many memorable moments and shocks.

Most notably, it's the first tournament in years where I thoroughly enjoyed watching every stage to some extent.
