Who are you most excited to see in Sasuke 23?
Yuuji- The first to make it to the Final Stage in 2 and 1/2 years.
Kanno- The youngest person to clear the Shin Cliff Hanger
Okuyama- The oldest to clear the Shin Second Stage and was one of three to clear in 20.
Lee- Made everything look easy until the SCH.
Sato- The oldest to attempt the Salmon Ladder and has a great chance of clearing in 23.
My choice is Okuyama. Sasuke is his Olympics. His run in 22 showed that he didnt have a fluke in 20 and I want to see beat the Shin Cliff Hanger in 23.

I voted for Urushihara. Great things are expected of him and it will be interesting to see how he deals with the added pressure. But really, I'm looking forward to all 4 of the Third Stage competitors from last time.

I'm really excited to see Kanno this time, he made it all the way to the spider flip last time and if he can get past the third stage he'll have a good chance of beating the whole thing since he's such a good rope climber.

I voted Kanno since I want to see him smiling again and try even harder for next time. Call it rooting for the underdog if you will. Actually I'm excited to see them all but for the purposes of this poll I am picking Kanno this time.

I picked Urushihara, but of course all of them. I, like others, think that Kanno will slip up in the first stage, but if he gets back to the third I'd like to see how much he's improved, and how he could deal with the final stage. He seems pretty damn good at rope climbing from the clips in his intro.

Well I'm most proud of Sato, I'm probably most excited about Yuuji but I guess I voted Sato 'cause he's cool for his age.

He was. It was mentioned during the TBS broadcast.

I voted for Lee. I think he's got the most experience and with his climbing background I expect him to pass the Cliffhanger this go around.

I also voted for Lee although I'm a bit biased. I think he will pass the CH if he can get past the Slider Jump and stage 1.

I hope I don't sound unoriginal saying this but....
Urushihara. I've been a HUGE fan ever since I saw Arsenette's Bug in Miki blog where he won a chance to be on Sasuke 21.
Sad that he wasn't shown in the broadcast but he made it pretty far.
After hearing the news that he'd be in 22 I was excited and had high expectations for him. He at that time was my favorite underdog (Can't really call him that now eh?)
I mean, he's a shoe salesman and he lives with his mom, and yet he still kicked a**.

I think if Lee can pass the cliff hanger he has a very good shot at passing stage 3 the hang climb should be nothing to him and if he can get up on the spider flip with no problems I see no reason why he should not pass from there. Yuuji should be a finalist again in this one he does kick a** but bada you missed out he also has a cat a voice like donald duck lives with his mum and sells shoes but he kicks the courses a** lol  |

You're right, when I read Arsenette's blog I wasn't able to hear his voice since it was a blog. When I heard it for the first time I was like... wtf?

I'm excited to see Yuuji again, especially after making stage 3 look easy. He really showed no mercy on the shin cliffhanger. That blew me away.

Yuuji definetely will kanzenshiha if he improves his rope climbing skills.
His performance on G-Rope is just like Nagano in SASUKE 13...
