I was really suprised when the G4 american ninja guy went the longest.

Hey Nagoyankee, did that make a major upset with the fanbase in Japan or did it, y'know just come and go?

I didn't know what the amount was, either. I had to check. You know that's about 20 K in your money and I find it surprisingly descent. But I guess the honor you receive as the victor can be priceless.

As for that American guy, it seems he was well-received by the Japanese public. If he could continue to participate despite the distance, I think he would have a good chance of making the All-Stars in a few years.
