The first day saw many upsets over top players, including {{Sm|Metara}} over {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}} (upset factor 12), {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}} over {{Sm|Tea}} (upset factor 8), and {{Sm|Levi}} over {{Sm|MuteAce}} (upset factor 7). The former two ultimately made long Loser runs, with Miya defeating 9 players to place 7th - albeit his first time missing top 2 at a tournament since the [[Tournament:Kagaribi 9|the previous Kagaribi]] - and Tea defeating 6 players to place 17th.

The second day also saw {{Sm|Yaura}} upsetting {{Sm|Sparg0}} (upset factor 8). However, Sparg0 proceeded to win 11 sets in a row to take the tournament, becoming the first North American to win a major Japanese ''Ultimate'' event, while doing so at his first ever Japanese event. In addition, after being knocked into Losers by {{Sm|Taikei}}, {{Sm|Dabuz}} defeated 9 players to place 4th, his first top 8 at a major/supermajor since {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2022}}. Together, Sparg0 and Dabuz eliminated everyone in the top 8. On the other hand, this was the first Kagaribi that {{Sm|acola}} attended but did not win, as he was double-eliminated by Sparg0 6-1 in Grand Finals, and notably resorted to secondaries for the last two games. | ||
