what are your favourite moments from pretty bad tournaments? Think of some pretty bad tournaments and list what was at least one of your favourite moments from that tournament. Here's a list you all can answer from:
-Sk 26
-Sk 28
-Sk 29
-Sk 33
-Sk 34
You guys can also add your own tournaments as well! Also, I choose these 3 as most of the other tournaments, imo, while not super amazing, were ok to sa the least, and not as bad as the ones stated above

I like him as an underdog competitor and his run tied him with Nagano, the only other moment I liked was Ryos fail due to it being funny and I guess the Malaysian champions run despite his health issues.

26 - Iketani avenging his past failures and Okuyama’s Stage 2/3 run
28 - Wakky coming in 6th place almost clearing Stage 1 + Asa’s breakout (though the latter was spoiled by the Navi)
29 - Shingo clearing Stage 1 + Kong’s monstrous performance on Stage 2
33 - The shock fails on Stage 1, such as from Yuuji, Kanno, Anastase, and Tomo.
34 - Yuuji’s clear + Jessie Graff’s fantastic debut run.

- 26: Mr Octopus' run in Stage 1;
- 28: Yamada clearing the first Wall in Stage 1;
- 29: Shingo making Stage 1 look easy, with an early start number;
- 33: Takeda clearing Stage 1, and the celebration afterwards;
- 34: Yuuji clearing Stage 1. The tension before and during his run, and then the relief afterwards.

26: Naoki Iketani clearing Stage One for the first time since Sasuke 17, Yoshiyuki Okuyama's buzzer beating Stage Two clear, and Mr Octopus' run.
28: Koki Someya coming out of nowhere to become the only rookie to clear Stage One.
29: Kenji Takahashi's Stage Two clear, and Morimoto's insane breakout run (apart from maybe that little stunt on the last wall of the Passing Wall, but we won't get into that...)
33: Honestly struggling on this one...
34: Two words: Jessie Graff. And, of course, as everybody else said, Yuuji making it back to Stage Two.

And, of course, as everybody else said, Yuuji making it back to Stage Two. I yo yo on my opinion when it comes to Yusuke in 29. He did very clearly just duck under the wall at its lowest position (people will argue Ryo also did in 27 but he at least had it semi-lifted when he did); yes it was legal and allowed but felt somewhat unearned, and obviously him being able to rest 5 minutes before the Cliffhanger kind of soured the clear for me. Not to mention that his breakout was spoiled by him being spotlighted during 29's Navi despite no notable prior track record. Then again, had Yusuke been DQ'd we would've just ended with 3 Crazy Cliffhanger fails just like in 28, and I'd wager that part of the reason that Yusuke was allowed through was because the producers ended up getting scared that no one was going to clear the buffed Stage 2, which is also why they reduced the jet streams at certain points, so they figured "f*** it" and let him through. I'd say 33 had an okay-ish Stage 1. Editing was obviously shocking, but we did get a good number of breakouts from celebrities who hadn't cleared before, as well as shock fails from Yuuji, Ryo, Kong, Anastase, Kanno etc. Stage 2 kind of sucked because it was a bunch of Salmon Ladder fails from first timers and then 5 straight clears, 3 of which were digested, though at least Stage 2 was deservedly buffed compared to 32. Stage 3 was just plain awful though. Drew going the furthest again but regressing from his previous performance, and everyone else also regressing due to an obstacle malfunction. |

26: Mistah Octopus!
28: The Rolling Escargot and the Spin Bridge which should NOT have been removed.
29: Kong in Stage 2, as well as Nagasaki's near clear (back when he could still do Stage 2).
33: Darvish's Lumberjack Climb fail and Takeda clearing Stage 1.
34: Yuuji's redemption clear
