Monster 9 goes bankrupt!
This just in from Arsenette (Rambling Rican)
For those who forgot, Monster 9 are the Producers/Creators/Owners of Sasuke. TBS just does the in-day production and own the broadcast but they are just the distributor. M9 are the ones holding the cards. Either way.. today they officially declared bankruptcy. Something that has been hinted at for a year now. Ube’s been keeping up with the news and articles as they are found. http://lostinube.blogspot.com/2011/11/monster-9-applies-for-bankruptcy.html
Sad.. really sad. Questions still remain about the status of 28 though all the articles confirm that Sasuke 28 was never scheduled. Was hoping the ratings this time helped.. but seems it was a little too late. Sasuke was literally the only thing left for M9 since they lost both parks and canceled all the other shows they produced last year and even had to shut down Muscle Musical. Unsure if bankruptcy laws in Japan allow for reorganization as “some” do here in the USA. We just have to wait and see if they survive this or if if this is full liquidation.
I’ll get an article on it later today but definitely follow Ube’s blog as he will get the stuff first.

Sasuke Central was down!!!
Apologies folks for not being more up to date. I was in Japan since September and while there the web hosting company Sasuke Central is hosted on was hacked and we lost our homepage. I could not restore the page while in Japan so missed posting the countdown to Sasuke 27.
In other news, I was able to watch Sasuke 27 and record it to DVD!!! Once I get settled I work on getting all the pics and videos posted.
Cheers,

Sasuke to end in March, 2011
Hey All,
This just in from Arsenette (http://ramblingrican.blogspot.com/2011/01/article-mentioning-sasuke-cancellation.html)
http://woman.infoseek.co.jp/news/entertainment/story.html?q=30gendainet000136305
According to the article in Japan, Sasuke is canceled (in Japan). Last airing will be March, 2011.
Now hoping that there is a Sasuke 27. There’s conjecture as to whether the show in March is a retrospect or an actual Sasuke 27. Stay tuned.
Not unexpected but still sad news.
