Sasuke 29 Spoilerific Review

Sasuke spoilerific review ;) Warning.. incoming blog of Sasuke 29.. if you don’t want to know.. you have been warned :D (Just remember.. the USA Broadcast of this.. will be.. well probably never honestly. Yes.. you read that right.. Now with the death of G4 official and NBC not giving a damn about Sasuke Japan (especially after boycotting Sasuke 28 AND Sasuke 29..).. we may never see Sasuke Rising on US television (or any overseas country for that matter unless everyone buys the original 3 hour broadcast from TBS). For a preview of this event.. Please see SASUKE Rising (29) NAVI a half hour review of Sasuke Rising with fluff pieces of all the major players in the upcoming Sasuke and even a couple of runs that were cut from the official broadcast!

(Part 1)

UBE'S Sorta-LIVE-BLOG FOR SASUKE 29 IS HERE !

(Massive thanks to TBS for posting the names of all 100 competitors! Thanks to Ube for his help on the names in English!!)

Yay our first All-star of the day!

Shingo Yamamoto山本進悟

Shingo rocking the apathetic look™ even 16 years ago!

TBS reminding us that he is a TWO time Finalist! (this one being in Sasuke 3)

and his last one back in Sasuke 7 where he dislocated his shoulder.. oooooouch..

His last appearance was supposed to be his LAST appearance..

and because he OPENLY said he was retiring, TBS has to go through the shenanigans on camera to get him back into the show. Nevermind that it was THEIR idea to force retire them anyway.. Devil's in the details here..

We know he retired from the gasoline industry so he's now working here! (as thousands of fans search Google maps for this location...)

He's working here in addition to waiting for his gym to open. The man can't keep still!

So here he is.. a few hours before he went to fly out to Maguro Festival LOL

Competing again in Sasuke Trials to correct the mistake of saying on camera that he retired (even though he didn't want to...)

TBS wants you to go through PAIN boy... PAIN! CAN YOU FEEL IT!??!

while he shows us HOW he was training his buttocks..

but of course this is still Shingo so we have to have a goofy crack up during a serious training session. LOL

So while I'm still royally pissed he had to do the dog and pony show to get back here...

I'm elated that he not only showed up..

but he can legitimately tell TBS to go eff themselves.. he earned his way back.

Once and All-star.. always an All-Star..

Sasuke All-Star Shingo Yamamoto山本進悟

Raise your hand if you're Sure!

.. you know I would have screamed if he failed here...

strong grip on the Log Grip!

Not a problem.. phew..

You know.. I'm not so confident about this...

FARK!!!!!!! I don't want a commercial in the middle of his run.. (I should know better though..)

Okay THIS is how you do commercial bumps.. they are showing PAST information.. not spoiling new information. THANK YOU INUI!

through the power of television Shingo went back in time...

Okay.. I'm taking a deep breath.. you KNOW he's going to screw this up in the most epic way..

OMG HE CLEARED.. I can breathe now..

wait no I can't.. he's going to kill me you know..

YES! FEET!!! WHERE ARE YOUR FEET!?!?!?

YES! High and dry.. okay.. breathing...

YES! He didn't screw this up!!

Okay I'm confident now.. he hasn't failed the wall in ages... Oh yeah.. this is the.. Ni Ren Soritatsu Kabe 2連そり立つ壁

What I call the Double Warped Wall making it's return

Shingo pole dancing to the 2nd wall

Not a problem! Oh btw hubby demanded to know if he had a hat on...

and I had to tell him.. "New era.. new rules babe!" He wasn't happy. Now he has to come up with another Shingo Rule..

Tarzan Ropeターザンロープ (yes.. it's its own obstacle..)

Geez.. he has HERDS of time!

And he's going to need it.. he's pretty low..

Rope Ladderロープラダー Yes.. I STILL incorrectly call the Rope Wall

Feet getting tangled but he still has plenty of time!!!

and slowly walking across and gently hitting the red button!!

YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's right baby I'm back!

And because the crowd doesn't trust Shingo until the smoke is visible...

Ryo, Yuuji and Kouji all approve of this message!

Arashida who's soon to run, Hioki who has the best expressions, Kenji rocking the Akiyama red, Shinya thinking he won the guns contest, Kanno who has a fangirl, Ryo who wishes he had muscles, Yuuji who wishes he had a lower register of voice and Kouji who is shocked TBS hasn't cut him out of this picture yet..

Shingo celebrating like it's 1999!!

36 people down and ONE CLEAR BABY!

LOL he's still doing fist pumps!

and waving hands!

Meanwhile we finally see the appearance of the other 2 All-Stars today relegated to the crowd now since they are trying to keep them a bit more lowkey. I'm okay with that so long as they are still there.

Some fist pump action from Takeda

Meanwhile Nagano is cackling at the Shingo celebration

Oh Takeda better not go there.. he better not complain about the celebration..

Then again he could just retaliate for Shingo's remark about the Kanzenseiha celebration from a couple of years ago.. buuuut he didn't.. opportunity lost.. it was right there man..

I mean Takeda would have been justified...

HOLY CRAP I DID IT! DID YOU SEE THAT???

Sasuke All-Star Shingo Yamamoto山本進悟 - FIRST STAGE CLEAR!

Wait.. the clear music for Shingo is STILL GOING.. but we get to hear that Sasuke 24 Finalist Kouji Hashimoto橋本亘司 has been reinstated into the Shin Sedai (announced on the start line).. after much bitching from yours truly.. however, he wasn't promoted in any of the run up to Sasuke.. so he must have failed again..

wait.. what? He PASSED but got Fast Forwarded?

Sasuke 24 Finalist Kouji Hashimoto橋本亘司 - FIRST STAGE CLEAR

Okay.. it's official.. TBS HATES Kouji Hashimoto.. this is what.. the 2nd or 3rd time he's had a Fast forwarded clear? I wonder who's cornflakes he pissed on..

Okay.. pretty lady that can literally kick your face in if you say anything bad about her..

actually I think she's quite pretty. I guess he hits more than gets hit back!

Rena レーナ

See? This is a perfect opportunity to openly campaign (again) about bringing back KUNOICHI

provided she doesn't fail here..

Noe she didn't! See??

okay hang on hold that thought..

See? She's good! BRING BACK KUNOICHI!!!!!!!!

I like her outfit a lot! Proving that you can still be pretty and not have to dress like a slut for TBS to show you on television. GO GIRL!

Awww but still.. she did good! She at least got her hand on the cargo net!

BRING BACK KUNOICHI!!!

This is about as close as you get to seeing Ayako Miyake back on Sasuke for now.. from the same troupe she's in.. and back for his 8th trip to Sasuke after a long absence.

Mister Sasuke All-Star Katsumi Yamada山田勝己

Oh boy here we go. For those who missed Navi (Shame on you I blogged on it) Yamada is back arrogantly declaring himself to be a Master since "Coach" is just "someone who just talks".. yeah.. you read that right. I'm face-palming along with you..

Here are his chosen disciples! All 4 of them...

wait.. Takeda was there?

LOL Takeda WAS there wondering if those words of encouragement were for him! Yay his collar isn't up (see white shirt)! GO TAKEDA!

(Mister Sasuke) ミスター SASUKE

Katsumi Yamada山田勝己 .. Gundam?

As was seen in Navi you had a group of 4 guys who were trained Wimp Lo Style..

wait.. they REBUILT it?

No.. it's not rebuilt.. I see rust everywhere..

They made additions to the front lawn.. TBS LIED.. I call FRAUD... he didn't take it down.. just tore down some already falling parts but left the rest intact.. Bulldozer was a lie...

So yeah.. Yamada's.... Gundam.. So they assemble into a giant robot?? (LOL Ube agrees) No wait wait.. Gundams are robots.. so they have no souls and you have to crawl inside them to pilot them? Ew...

Yamada's group, btw, is called "黒虎," or "Black Tiger."

So.. anyone wanna place bets? Nah me neither.. no wait I'd win this one.. dammit..

actually this is going to be painful to watch.. I call refrigerator break™

Koshige Yamamoto 山本浩茂

Yeah.. Koshige Yamamoto 山本浩茂 - Death by Jump Hang Kai

Hey he gets to run along the course...

going to be a long (or short depending on your point of view) day at the ~~office~~ dojo

and he walks back muttering to himself to see if his next assassin can do the job..

Nope.. well it got a little better.. but he was trained.. in the same wall that hasn't gotten Katsumi up either..

Er.. nope..

Keishi Mizukawa 水川圭史 - Death by Long Jump

yeah.. never declare yourself capable of teaching others master.. COACHES also were experienced.. so there you go for defaming the "Coach" name.

and.. doing what a coach does.. talking to them..

how about making them go through trials.. you know.. like everyone else was forced to? Yeah.. my point exactly. What a waste riding on Yamada's name alone. Go back to where you came from and earn your way back.
