The number of upsets were at the highest in top 64.

Other notable upsets include #31 {{Sm|Reno|p=Japan}} losing to #98 {{Sm|Shion|p=Japan}} 2-3 (UF 4), #36 {{Sm|Navy}} losing to #164 {{Sm|Rearlet}} 0-3 (UF 4) and #37 {{Sm|Nao}} losing to #421 {{Sm|Lunia}} 2-3 (UF 7).

Additionally, #122 {{Sm|Tsubotsubo}} knocked out of the tournament #26 {{Sm|Umeki}} at 65th 0-3 (UF 4).


After top 64, outside of #9 {{Sm|Tea}} (losing to Raki 1-3 in winner's side and #39 {{Sm|Akio}} in loser's, both UF 4, placing 13th), the upsets only concern top 8 seeds. Asimo was eliminated at 25th by #25 {{Sm|Shirayuki}} 1-3 (UF 5), and TamaP at 17th by #15 {{Sm|Akakikusu}} 0-3 (UF 2). #4 {{Sm|Shuton}} lost 1-3 to #13 {{Sm|Snow}} (UF 4) (the first time Snow defeated Shuton after losing to him 4 times) and #7 {{Sm|Doramigi}} 1-3 (UF 2) for 9th. Lastly, #5 {{Sm|Raru}} didn't make into top 8 despite reach winner's quarters, finishing at 9th, as he lost to Snow 2-3 and Akakikusu (both UF 3). As such, only half of the top 8 seeds make into top 8, with Miya, {{Sm|acola}}, and {{Sm|Hurt}} being the only three entering from the winner's side.
The number of upsets were at the highest in top 64. Lunia continued his breakout run by scoring the biggest upset of the tournament, eliminating #18 {{Sm|Kameme}} at 33rd 3-1 as the 421th seed, for a upset factor 9, also beating #60 {{Sm|Huto}} 3-1 (UF 6). #8 {{Sm|TamaPDaifuku}} losing to #40 {{Sm|Raki}} 1-3 and #6 {{Sm|Asimo}} losing to #27 {{Sm|alice}} 1-3 (both upset factor 5) are the first top 8 seeds upsets. Lv.1, after being upset early, lost 0-3 to #65 {{Sm|Omuatsu}} (UF 4), placing 49th, his worst result since {{Trn|Kagaribi 10}} one year ago, and #24 {{Sm|Toriguri}} lost 0-3 to #51 {{Sm|Gachipi}} (UF 3), finishing at 33rd. Both #16 Maister and #23 {{Sm|Gackt}} were send to loser's early, as Maister lost 1-3 to #48 {{Sm|Chicken}} and Gackt lost 0-3 to Kome (both UF 3).


Conversely, this event was notable for being {{Sm|MkLeo}}'s best supermajor performance in months. After a close encounter with alice, choosing to play the entire set with just {{SSBU|Meta Knight}} and performing a reverse-3 stock in the final game, MkLeo barely lost to Hurt right outside of top 8 but was able to defeat Akio in yet another game 5 set using {{SSBU|Byleth}} in the final two games to enter top 8 from the loser's side, his first P-tier top 8 appearance since he won {{Trn|GENESIS 9}} in January 2023. He then decisively defeated {{Sm|Doramigi}} in a game 5 set with Meta Knight before being reverse 3-0'd by acola. With his 5th-place finish and his wins over several top players, including a player who many considered as a contender for the top 10 at that time, MkLeo's performance marks his best performance at a major since he won {{Trn|King Con}} back in February.  In addition, after losing to Kome, Zackray went on a 7-set loser's run, which includes eliminating Akakikusu and Hurt, before losing to acola to place 4th.
After top 64, outside of #9 {{Sm|Tea}} (losing to Raki 1-3 in winner's side and #39 {{Sm|Akio}} in loser's, both UF 4, placing 13th), the upsets only concern top 8 seeds. Asimo was eliminated at 25th by #25 {{Sm|Shirayuki}} 1-3 (UF 5), and TamaP at 17th by #15 {{Sm|Akakikusu}} 0-3 (UF 2). Lastly, #4 {{Sm|Shuton}} and #5 {{Sm|Raru}} didn't make into top 8 despite reach winner's quarters, finishing at 9th. Shuton lost 1-3 to #13 {{Sm|Snow}} (UF 4) (the first time Snow beat Shuton after losing to him 4 times) and #7 {{Sm|Doramigi}} 1-3 (UF 2), while Raru lost to Snow 2-3 and Akakikusu (both UF 3). As such, only half of the top 8 seeds make into top 8.


In top 8, acola fell into loser's bracket after losing to Snow 2-3 (UF 7). However, aside from going to game 5 against MkLeo, acola was easily able to enter Grand Finals, where he once again had to face Miya. acola surprised audiences by playing the match with {{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}}, but although he was able to reset the bracket 2-3, Miya ultimately defeated acola 3-1 at yet another P-tier; not only did Miya win back-to-back Japanese P-tiers, but this was also his fourth P-tier win in 2024, placing him as a contender to dethrone acola as the best player in Japan.
Outside of his two upsets, Akakikusu entered loser side top 8 by defeating {{Sm|Rarikkusu}}, Kameme and {{Sm|Carmelo}}, while Doramigi also beat {{Sm|Paseriman}}, Akio and Kome, both being send to loser's by {{Sm|Miya|p=Honshu}}. Also in the loser side were Zackray and #11 MkLeo. After his early loss to Kome, Zackray made a impressive 7-set long loser's run, knocking out of the tournament {{Sm|Gorioka}}, Tameigo, alice, {{Sm|MASA}} and Raki. MkLeo beat {{Sm|MairudonaH.O}}, {{Sm|Karaage}} and alice to reach winners quarters were he lost a close game 5 set to #3 {{Sm|Hurt}}, lastly defeating Akio to enter top 8. In winner side, both #2 Miya and #1 {{Sm|acola}} cruised through their bracket to enter top 8, both only losing 3 games, with Miya sending to loser's Shion, Akakikusu and Doramigi, and acola {{Sm|Ezs}}, Omuatsu, Carmelo, Chicken and Raki. Hurt also entered winner side top 8, defeating {{Sm|Taikei}}, {{Sm|ElleGo}} and MkLeo. Lastly Snow, who has also defeated {{Sm|Abadango}}, {{Sm|sssr}} and {{Sm|M0tsunabE}} outside of his two upsets, is the only non-top 8 seed to enter winner side top 8.
 
Outside of Raki (placing 9th as the 40th seed), Kome (placing 17th as the 55th seed) and Lunia (placing 25th as the 421th seed), #39 Akio made a great run to 9th, with wins over Umeki, sssr, Lunia and Chicken. #46 ElleGo placing 17th also marks one of the best {{SSBU|Young Link}} performances since {{Sm|Suinoko}}'s 13th place at Umebura Sp 10 in January, with wins over {{Sm|DieGorou}}, {{Sm|Ryuoh}} and Tsuna.
 
In top 8, Akakikusu was eliminated at 7th by Zackray 1-3 alongside Doramigi, who lost against Mkleo's {{SSBU|Meta Knight}} 2-3. In winner's semifinals, while Miya defeat Hurt as seeded, Snow made a another upset, as he won the set against acola 3-2 (UF 7), the best win a {{SSBU|Mario}} player have had since {{Sm|Kurama}}'s win over MkLeo at {{Trn|Frostbite 2020}}. The other upset in top 8 is Zackray eliminating Hurt 3-1 at 5th (UF 4). Miya entered winner side grand final after winning the set vs Snow 3-0. In loser's side, acola defeat MkLeo in a close game 5 set, eliminating MkLeo at 5th, his best placement at a major since his victory at {{Trn|King Con}} in February 2024. It's also the first time he made top 8 at a P-Tier since his first place at {{Trn|GENESIS 9}} in January 2023. This run, and especially his close sets with Hurt and acola, make people believe that MkLeo will reclame a top 10 spot worldwide. acola also eliminated Zackray at 4th 3-0 and won the runback against Snow 3-1, who placed 3rd at a P-Tier, one of the best Mario performances in Ultimate alongside Kurama's run at the {{Trn|Ludwig Smash Invitational}}. In a another classical japanese grand finals between Miya and acola (who decides to go only Aegis), the latter managed to reset the bracket 3-2 but Miya won the reset 3-1, winning back-to-back two japanese P-Tier, his fourth P-Tier win in 2024 and solidifying himself as a serious contender for the Number 1 spot of the season despite his underperformances in North America.
