Where does Takeda rank all time to you

One of the most iconic and strongest ninjas who never got to stage 4 but is seen as one of the best ever regardless. Where do you think he deserves to be ranked?

2nd Transfer on Dimension

Is the ledge on the board that moves forwards and backwards really slick? I just saw a compilation of dimension fails and I noticed a lot of people were able to get really good swings, grab the 2nd ledge at chest level which is important for good cliff throws, but they still peel off especially Yuka, Daniel, etc. I don't think its even a timing issue, and their grip still looks really good. Any ideas?

Best ninja shoe 2025

I got a pair of series ones a couple months ago and they unfortunately aren’t living up to the hype. Sometimes they stick but sometimes they don’t. I’m thinking of getting some ollos but was wondering about other options. There are zero zantes or trainers on the market. I’ve heard good things about the tempo v1. Is it worth it or should I just play it safe and go with ollos

All American muscle vs warrior athlean x

A little background, I’ve been doing ninja warrior training for a few months now and also alternating between the total beast and dragon athlean x programs and I like them both very much they seem to complement what I’m doing with ninja pretty well. I’ve been wanting to try another program and am looking at the all American muscle or warrior programs. What are everyone’s thoughts on these programs? Are they that different than the total beast to warrant buying another one or are they pretty much the same and how do you think, if at all, they would fit in with the ninja training which is very upper body, grip and core intensive.

Sasuke 42 was hype

I know a lot of people like to see new, more difficult obstacles in stage one and any sort of change in stage 2, but I overall felt like this Sasuke was super hype. No one really failed the corkscrew in stage 1 that had a strong chance to finish, but I was super happy with the number of younger competitors and some of the women impressed me, though I'm super sad that Ayano failed stage one. Overall, it makes me hopeful for the future that the best of sasuke is aging out with no one to replace them. Stage 2 still hasn't changed of course, but I was shocked by how many people got caught by the roller in the beginning. Stage 3 was HYPE with Ryosuke Miyaoka being the first person to defeat the vertical limit bursts, I hope Morimoto will nail it next time. Final stage was brutal to watch since Ryosuke didn't even get close, 45 seconds is just too short with everything they have in place in my opinion. I think kaiou and nakashima are the god damn future, they barely hit puberty and they're already beasts. What do you all think?

Does anyone know if Minoru Kuramochi is still alive?

I remember watching Sasuke japanese Ninja Warrior in the 2010s and despite it having several fan favorites who were always winning, my favorite player was Mr. Kuramochi, who was 65 years old at the time. He never went further than the first round, but he was so inspirational to me, because his passion and braveness reminded me of my grandfather who passed away. Does anyone know any information about this old Warrior?

Danmarks Ninja Warrior (Denmark), Episodes 1-6, 8-10
Team Ninja Warrior Denmark, Episodes 1-9
Ninja Warrior Sverige (Sweden), Season 1, Episodes 2-9

SASUKE 42 - Live Watch Info & Discussion

Sasuke 42 is around the corner and is airing *just* over 1 week from this post, on December 25th at 18:00 JST / 09:00 GMT / 04:00 ET / 01:00 PT and will last for 5 hours and 10 minutes.

As per usual, there will be a twitch stream, this year located at https://www.twitch.tv/abugslifeps1longplays/

If for whatever reason the URL needs to change, I will provide an update. The stream will open a few hours prior to the start time of SASUKE.

While we always want to offer the livestream option - I would encourage everyone to prioritize their Christmas obligations this time around since the broadcast time is less than ideal.

Feel free to discussion your predictions for the tournaments - just avoid any spoilers

Why does Rene Cassey get so much hate?

I was reading the comments on the Ninja Warrior Germany Instagram account on the photo of >!Rene being declared the Last Ninja Standing!< and most of them seem to be negative. Why do Germans not like Rene that much? I enjoyed watching him on Sasuke.
