Takeo Hamasaki

Takeo Hamasaki is a consistent contestant on Survivor: REM. He has 13th casting priority.

In Borneo, Takeo's pushy and overbearing demeanor irked many of his tribemates. This, combined with his statement that he would not mind being voted out, resulted in his elimination in a near-unanimous vote at the Pagong tribe's first Tribal Council.

Takeo quickly stirred conflict with his Pagong tribemates with his hard work ethic and his abrasive personality. Tribemate Komako Noguchi even complained that "If you do not work as hard as Takeo, you do not work hard at all." Takeo was also responsible for creating a sturdy, albeit uncomfortable tribe shelter, much to his tribemates' dismay. After Pagong lost their first Immunity Challenge on Day 6, Takeo started saying that he would not mind if he went home. It was this, along with his abrasive attitude, which caused everyone on his tribe, minus Mikihiro Yasutake, to vote for him and he was sent home in a 6-2 vote.
