AISubs v3.7
Hello, my name is Daniel Gill and my number here at Sasuke Season 42 is number 91.
This is my second time competing here on Sasuke, so I'm comfortable competing here in Japan and I look forward to another opportunity to run these courses, represent my country and hit some buzzers.
Yes, so last time I was here for the Sasuke World Cup I injured my ankle, but thankfully it was only a sprain and I was able to recover quickly.
I'm back at 100% and now I want to finish what I started on Sasuke World Cup.
For the new area I'm very excited, hitting a buzzer and then running and jumping and catching.
It's something you would not see in America, but exclusively here in Japan and so I'm grateful for the opportunity to do courses and obstacles I never would otherwise.
I have had a few conversations with my friends in the U.S. about coming here and they're all jealous, but they support me 100% and wish me the very best of luck competing here on Sasuke 42.
After falling two times now on the cliffhanger dimension obstacle,
that is what I've been training for, that is what I've been preparing for, and I need to get there first.
There's many obstacles and a couple of buzzers, but I'm very confident that I will get my rematch, my revenge on cliffhanger dimension.
So this season on Sasuke, I have my wife, I have my baby Aila and several friends that I've known and met over the years supporting me, cheering me on.
I feel very calm, I feel very comfortable.
The environment is great for me to go out there and do my very best without worry or hesitations.
I feel good.
Is to first go further than last year.
I want to beat cliffhanger dimension, but the ultimate goal is, after being at Kazen Seihai in US,
I would love and be so honored to at least attempt, maybe even beat, Mount Mizoriyama here in Japan.
92nd place, Kane Kusugi.
Kane-san, this is your 7th time here.
It's been two years since I last came here.
How was the World Cup?
The World Cup was an honor just to be part of the team.
I'm really disappointed we couldn't make it.
I've been disappointed since last year.
This time, I want a proper revenge.
I want to leave a good result.
You said you were disappointed.
What kind of training did you do for this tournament?
I didn't just do weight training. I also trained for Sasuke.
I think it's better than two years ago.
I think I can do it without getting impatient.
But I'm used to it now, so I'm correcting it from the second stage.
Which angle do you like?
A little more forward.
Is this okay?
A little more forward is fine.
Is this okay?
That's about it.
I've been doing a lot of things for about two and a half years.
Since then, I've been doing one thing.
Today, I came to the first stage.
That hasn't happened yet, so I hope it will happen this time.
Getting one ticket and going out to Sasuke is a big deal.
I want to make sure I don't waste it.
No. 93, Yamaboto Shingo.
- This is my 42nd time. - That's right.
- Have you gotten used to Midoriyama? - Not at all.
Not at all.
That day...
My mouth was dry.
But for me, this year is a special day.
I'm 50 years old and unknown.
My first goal is to go 2nd or 3rd.
Also, I'm happy that more people from the resident team have come back.
Whether I succeed or fail, I feel like everyone is enjoying Sasuke with me.
That's what I'm feeling right now.
- Did you experience the World Cup this year? - That's right.
I was able to participate in it.
That World Cup experience is also quite big.
If you ask me what made me want to participate in the World Cup...
In a way, it might be everything.
From the atmosphere to my mental control.
It's only been half a year.
I'm sorry to say this, but compared to the other competitors, I'm doing much better now.
I think I'm lucky in that regard.
- How is your physical condition? - My condition...
Every time I participated in the World Cup, I felt like I wanted to participate in it.
But I don't feel like participating in it today.
I feel like I can move around without hurting my body.
I think that's a good thing.
Today is the 42nd time, and for me it's a different kind of event.
My goal is to get to the starting line of the 3rd round.
I want to do my best.
I'm from Sasuke All-Stars, Shiratori Prefecture, in Zecken 94.
As an employee of Sasuke All-Stars, Sasuke has challenged himself and made his name known in Shiratori Prefecture.
It's been 10 years since you've been in Midoriyama.
That's right.
The tension hasn't changed.
But I came back with a sense of nostalgia.
It's been a while since I've met the All-Stars members.
You've gotten older.
You're working hard these days.
I'm excited about that.
Why did you decide to come back to Sasuke All-Stars?
I saw the world cup.
I thought, "Old people are working hard."
And among young people, I wanted to join the members and challenge Sasuke All-Stars in the same space.
That's why I came back.
Have you ever done or adjusted anything like this?
I don't have a set at home anymore.
I've been visiting my friends who have a set.
I've been thinking about my image and my accumulated past.
I've watched all the previous tournaments.
If you don't watch the latest tournaments, the area changes.
I don't want to say anything strong.
If I had to say, I want to clear the first studio.
It doesn't matter if you play a game or not.
Even at this age, if you don't give up and work hard, you can do it.
I'd be happy if you could see it.
No. 95, Katsumi Yamada.
What kind of training do you do?
I just train my body and mind.
I've been doing it for two weeks.
I've been trying to figure out how many legs are left on the wall.
But somehow my legs started to move.
I've been doing it for a month.
I only do it when I can do it.
It's been a while since we've all been together in this 42nd All-Stars Tournament.
That's right.
Shigatori came back to us.
He's kind of strong-willed.
He's under 57kg.
I think he understands me the best.
We talk like this.
We cheer each other up.
Let's go, man.
We can talk like that.
It's encouraging.
Good morning.
Target restriction.
No, no.
How is it?
Are you injured?
No, I'm fine.
Good morning.
How did you do?
I did my best.
I'm in great shape.
I think I'll be able to finish first.
How many times did you finish last?
Ninety-three.
Ninety-three?
How about you, Ken?
Ninety-two.
Ninety-two?
Ninety-two.
Yamada-san, you finished first this time.
It's been 21 years since you did it in 2003.
Life is hard, isn't it?
It's easy to give up.
But it's hard to keep going.
If you don't give up, you'll have to tell yourself what's ahead of you.
It's not easy to just say it.
Don't give up because you have a reason.
Don't give up.
If you don't give up, you'll have to give up.
Even if you fail for 21 years,
even if you fail for 30 or 50 years,
if you don't give up, you'll have something.
Efforts don't lie.
I'm going to tell it on TV.
New videos are released one after another!
