The main bracket saw several notable runs from players who were not expected to make it as far as they did.

On the other hand, a few other notable players failed to meet their seed by a notable margin. This included Asimo, who lost to #44 seed {{Sm|Aiko}} 2-3 (upset factor 4) for 49th; #19 seed Toriguri, who fell in Zackray's Loser's run for 49th; and Hurt, who placed 9th, his first sub-top 8 placement of the season. On the other hand, this marked #11 seed {{Sm|MkLeo}}'s best run at a Japanese event up to that point, as he was able to place his seed after losing to {{Sm|Shuton}} 3-0 (with their game record now going 12-0 in Shuton's favor) and #23 seed {{Sm|Akakikusu}}. MkLeo ultimately became the highest-placing international player at the tournament, with Sparg0, {{Sm|Glutonny}}, and {{Sm|Zomba}} placing 13th (Glutonny notably losing the runback against {{Sm|Carmelo}} and {{Sm|Zomba}} being reverse 3-0'd by both {{Sm|Raru}} and {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}}); Maister and {{Sm|Kinaji}} placing 25th; BassMage placing 33rd; and U placing 49th. | |||

The sheer amount of upsets gave many Japanese players new player values for [[LumiRank]], and as a result a total of 500 points were added to the player point system.
