Changes: Shiratori Bunpei

Latest revision as of 02:33, 12 April 2024

Shiratori Bunpei (白鳥文平) is a former Triple Jumper and Civic Employee in his home village of Inba, Chiba Prefecture, in the Health and Services department. He is the sixth and the last member of SASUKE All-Stars. He is also known for building over 11 replica SASUKE obstacles in his backyard. Competitors have visited his home to train on what is sometimes called the 'Shiratori Shrine', although the place has been brought down in 2009.

Debut and Early Success

Shiratori made his first appearance in SASUKE 9, where he timed out on the Soritatsu Kabe on a digested performance, but his technique on the Jump Hang of jumping with only one foot on the trampoline will soon become his famous trademark.

After skipping the 10th anniversary tournament, he came back in SASUKE 11. He had a faster pace compared to his rookie effort, and he was able to clear the 1st stage with over 7 seconds left. In the Second Stage, however, he had a relatively slow run that cost him a time out while lifting the second wall of the Wall Lift.

Shiratori was given #77 in SASUKE 12, and after he came close to touch the water on the Jump Hang, he clear again the First Stage. In the Second Stage, despite a 10 second reduction, he was much more faster than his previous attempt, and he cleared with 2 seconds left. In the Third Stage, he impressed many by clearing most of the obstacles quickly and easily, most notably the Lamp Grasper, where he even had a scare when he lost his grip on a lamp but he was able to hold on and continue his run. After clearing the Cliffhanger Kai, he was also able to clear the Pipe Slider, by literally sliding through the ending platform after the jump, advancing to the Final Stage. Here, he had a good run, but it wasn't enough as he timed out only 2 meters before the goal.

Because of this great run, he was given #99 by the producers in SASUKE 13. He show that his previous attempt wasn't a fluke, clearing again the first two stages with little time left and reaching the Pipe Slider again, but the obstacle got his revenge on Shiratori when he lost his balance after landing on the platform, falling backwards into the water. This run prompted the producers to made him the sixth and final member of the All-Stars

As an All Star

In his All-Star debut in SASUKE 14, Shiratori looked to reach the Third Stage once more, but he surprisingly went out on the Balance Tank on Stage Two on a rather painful way, with the log hitting Bunpei's head when he was about to fell into the water. He will later admit that this defeat was due to the fact he payed little attention because he was too used to practice the obstacle.

SASUKE 15 featured Shiratori's most iconic run. Given #94, the tournament was characterized by very high temperatures, with a peak of 34°C. He was treated because of heat exhaustion and it remained uncertain until the very end if he will be able to compete or not. After the other 99 competitors ran the 1st Stage, Bunpei managed to recover and compete in that tournament, and he made all way to the end of the Third Stage, before failing the Climbing Bars (the only competitor to do this). This was probably due to the fact that he was too exhausted and he didn't have no more stenght left, but this performance was the second best of that tournament, only behind Takeda Toshihiro who failed the next obstacle, the Devil Balanço.

Bunpei returned much stronger in SASUKE 16, passing the first two stages with time to spare. He then got his revenge on the Climbing Bars and reach the Devil Balanço. Here he will be the first competitor to use the technique that made the obstacle much easier. He swing on the green resting platform, then he grab the Devil Balanço's pipe, and then he use the momentum to the reach the Pipe Slider. Thanks to this he easily clear the obstacle and made to the the Pipe Slider once again, but unfortunately he failed the obstacle again as he touched the landing platform (which was further than before) with only his hands and was unable to hold on the platform. This will be the best performance in that tournament.

In SASUKE 17 many expected him to finally take his revenge on the Pipe Slider and return to the Final Stage. He cleared First and Second stages with ease, but on the Third Stage he shocked everybody when he fell rather early on the Body Prop, an obstacle he never struggled on it before, ending his prime era as well the golden era of SASUKE on a bitter note. This will be his last Third Stage attempt.

Shin SASUKE and retirement

He competed in SASUKE 18 expected to do well on a completely new course, but sadly he slipped on the Spider Walk portion of the Jumping Spider, failing the first stage for the first time since his debut.

In SASUKE 19 he made to the Soritatsu Kabe, but because of the added height he struggle to scale it, and when he was able to clear it, he timed out on the Flying Chute. This was the first time that he failed the First Stage consecutive times.

After skipping SASUKE 20 because of a back injury, he re-appared in SASUKE 21. Here he was finally able to clear the Shin-SASUKE First Stage, though he seemed to be very exhaust at the end of his run. Perhaphs because of this, his Second Stage run was short lived as he lost his balance on the Downhill Jump, before he could do a jump. This will his last Second Stage appearance.

Because of a knee injury he did not compete in SASUKE 22, though he helped Satō Hiromichi to clear the Soritatsu Kabe and later the stage thanks to training in his Shiratori Shrine, before it will be shut down. He was present during SASUKE 24 and stood on the sidelines with the other All-Stars, but did not compete due to his injuries from which he was still recovering. In fact he is still said to suffer from chronic back and knee pains.

In early May 2014, it was announced that Shiratori would return for SASUKE 30 after a nine-tournament, six-year absence, as he expressed disappointment for missing the two previous Anniversary tournaments. Wearing #2997, he cleared the first three obstacles, but he failed the Jump Hang Kai with him failing to hit trampoline and so his classic one-foot jump wasn't enough to hold on the left rope. He hit the yellow support of the trampoline, making almost impossible to clear the obstacle and in fact he failed.

After SASUKE 30, he never competed again, although he never rule out the possibility to return for later tournaments if he was healthy enough.

His last appearance was in SASUKE 32, where he was present along with all the other All-Stars to celebrate Nagano Makoto retirement as well assisting his farewell ceremony.

 ==Debut and Early Success==
-In the 9th tournament, his debut, Shiratori impressed many by clearing the [[Jump Hang]] by using only one foot on the trampoline. Though he ultimately timed out on the [[Soritatsu Kabe]], he left a strong impression. Shiratori did not compete in the 10th tournament, but in his next attempt, the 11th tournament, he cleared the First Stage. He would time out at the [[Wall Lifting]] in the Second Stage.
+Shiratori made his first appearance in [[SASUKE 9]], where he timed out on the [[Soritatsu Kabe]] on a digested performance, but his technique on the [[Jump Hang]] of jumping with only one foot on the trampoline will soon become his famous trademark.
+After skipping the [[SASUKE 10|10th anniversary tournament]], he came back in [[SASUKE 11]]. He had a faster pace compared to his rookie effort, and he was able to clear the [[First Stage|1st stage]] with over 7 seconds left. In the [[Second Stage]], however, he had a relatively slow run that cost him a time out while lifting the second wall of the [[Wall Lift]].
-Shiratori's potential was not truly shown until [[SASUKE 12]], where he advanced to the Third Stage without any problem whatsoever. Though at one point his grip slipped on the [[Lamp Grasper]], he recovered and made his way through the [[Cliffhanger]] and [[Pipe Slider]] at an incredible speed. Landing the Pipe Slider jump perfectly as well, he cleared the Third Stage on his first attempt, a feat only achieved since then by [[Urushihara Yuuji]] in [[SASUKE 22]], [[Hashimoto Koji]] in [[SASUKE 24]] and [[Matachi Ryo]] in [[SASUKE 27]]. Ultimately, he timed out on the [[Tsuna Nobori]] in the Final Stage.
+Shiratori was given [[Start Position|#77]] in [[SASUKE 12]], and after he came close to touch the water on the [[Jump Hang]], he clear again the [[First Stage]].

Here, he had a good run, but it wasn't enough as he timed out only 2 meters before the goal.
-His success was recognized in [[SASUKE 13]], where he was given #99. Shiratori once again made his way to the Pipe Slider in the Third Stage, but mistimed his jump/dismount, and fell into the water below. However, this did prove that his performance in the previous tournament was not a fluke, and after this tournament he was named as an All-Star.

-==As an All-Star==
-In [[SASUKE 14]], though he cleared the First Stage with time to spare, he fell on the [[Balance Tank]] in the Second Stage. Afterward, in an interview, Shiratori speculated that his fall was due to the fact that he had gotten too used to the obstacles, and was not paying enough attention.
+== As an All Star ==
-In [[SASUKE 15]], due to temperatures upward of 34 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit), before his run Shiratori fell prey to heat exhaustion. For a while it was uncertain whether he would be able to compete. As his number approached, he was still being treated, and [[Yamamoto Shingo]], who was next in line, went before him. After the other 99 competitors went, Shiratori was ready to compete and managed to clear not only the First Stage, but the Second Stage as well. He advanced all the way to the [[Climbing Bars]] in the Third Stage before falling, apparently too exhausted to continue. His result in this tournament was second only to [[Takeda Toshihiro]]'s, who advanced to the [[Devil Balanço]].
+In his All-Star debut in [[SASUKE 14]], Shiratori looked to reach the [[Third Stage]] once more, but he surprisingly went out on the [[Balance Tank]] on [[Second Stage|Stage Two]] on a rather painful way, with the log hitting Bunpei's head when he was about to fell into the water.

-In [[SASUKE 16]], he once again made it to the Third Stage, where he was the first to use the one-handed approach on the Devil Balanço, building up momentum on the green resting bar before transferring to the first orange bar and easily making it to the pipe. Though he was once again unable to clear the Pipe Slider jump, his approach to the Devil Balanço paved the way for an 100% success rate on the obstacle in the next tournament. However, he fell early on the [[Body Prop]] in the Third Stage in [[SASUKE 17]].

-==Shin-Sasuke==
-In [[SASUKE 18]], after the renewal, though Shiratori was viewed as one of the most likely to do well on the course, he slipped on the Spider Walk portion of the [[Jumping Spider]] and fell into the water. This was his first First Stage failure since his debut. [[SASUKE 19]] was to be a battle with stamina; he failed the Soritatsu Kabe (now 20 cm higher) multiple times, and though he finally cleared it, he timed out on the [[Flying Chute]].
+In [[SASUKE 17]] many expected him to finally take his revenge on the [[Pipe Slider]] and return to the [[Final Stage]]. He cleared First and Second stages with ease, but on the [[Third Stage]] he shocked everybody when he fell rather early on the [[Body Prop]], an obstacle he never struggled on it before, ending his prime era as well the golden era of SASUKE on a bitter note. This will be his last [[Third Stage]] attempt.
-In [[SASUKE 21]], though he still suffered from back pains, he was able to clear the First Stage (though afterward he seemed exhausted). However, he lost his balance on the [[Downhill Jump]] in the Second Stage, and fell into the water below.
+== Shin SASUKE and retirement ==
-Shiratori missed [[SASUKE 20]] with a back injury and [[SASUKE 22]] with a knee injury; however before [[SASUKE 22]] he helped train [[Satô Hiromichi]] on his version of the Soritatsu Kabe, which Satô passed in the tournament. He was present at [[SASUKE 24]] and stood on the sidelines with other All-Stars, but did not compete due to his injuries from which he was still recovering. He is still said to suffer from chronic back and knee pains. In early May 2014, it was announced that Shiratori would return for [[SASUKE 30]] after a 9-tournament absence. Wearing #2997, he failed the [[Jump Hang Kai]] due to mis-hitting the trampoline. He used his one-foot leap technique on the trampoline, but it proved to not be enough. On the replay, it was also shown that his foot tripped over the trampoline while jumping.
+He competed in [[SASUKE 18]] expected to do well on a completely new course, but sadly he slipped on the Spider Walk portion of the [[Jumping Spider]], failing the first stage for the first time since his debut.
+In [[SASUKE 19]] he made to the [[Soritatsu Kabe]], but because of the added height he struggle to scale it, and when he was able to clear it, he timed out on the [[Flying Chute]]. This was the first time that he failed the [[First Stage]] consecutive times.
-After SASUKE 30, he officially retired due to aging and injuries; <span style="font-weight:normal;">however, it is possible that he may return for later tournaments.</span>
+After skipping [[SASUKE 20]] because of a back injury, he re-appared in [[SASUKE 21]]. Here he was finally able to clear the Shin-SASUKE [[First Stage]], though he seemed to be very exhaust at the end of his run. Perhaphs because of this, his [[Second Stage]] run was short lived as he lost his balance on the [[Downhill Jump]], before he could do a jump. This will his last [[Second Stage]] appearance.
