In the 3rd Competition, Yuko missed the button by 0.12 seconds. Yuko Mizuno ( 水野裕子, Mizuno Yuko) - After almost completing the Final Stage in the 2nd and 3rd Competitions, she was thought to be the most likely competitor to complete the Final Stage, and was once thought to be the 'Queen of Kunoichi'. In Kunoichi 8 she became the second woman ever to beat the Final Stage. Rie Komiya also competed in SASUKE 22, SASUKE 23, SASUKE 24 and SASUKE 26, being disqualified on the Jumping Spider and then failing the Half-pipe Attack, the Log Grip and the Rolling Escargot respectively. As of 2008 she has cleared the first stage three times, the second stage twice, and the third stage once.

She was one of only four competitors who defeated the First Stage in the 7th competition, but she failed on the Monkey Bars in the Second Stage. Her run in the 6th competition was cut from the broadcast, but it is known that she failed stage 1. She is a Japanese newscaster and went into modeling after her appearance on Kunoichi, before joining the Muscle Musical by the time of the 7th competition. In the 5th Competition, she looked better than Miss Perfect herself, however by the time she reached the Skyway Pole in the final stage she looked defeated and her time ran out. Rie Komiya ( 小宮理英, Komiya Rie) - This is one of the top competitors on Kunoichi and is notable for advancing all the way to the Third Stage in her first tournament, and failing Domino Hill(4th Competition). (This seems to be confirmed as she did not compete in Kunoichi 8.) Recently Ayako and a few other Muscle Musical members including the creator and Sayaka Asami broke away and created their own group, so it is now rumored that she will no longer compete. Her failure left the other competitors in visible shock because, in the words of the narrator 'She was the competitor everyone was counting on!' As of 2008, she has cleared the first stage four times in a row and the second, third and final stages three times in a row. In the 7th Competition however, she fell on the last obstacle of the Second Stage, the last part of the Swinging Beams, which was a metal beam without a rope support like the last two. She achieved total victory in the 4th, 5th, and 6th competitions. Weighing only 90 pounds (41 kg), Ayako is also an acrobatic dancer, who used to work for Muscle Musical.
