Hi Guys,
We are from Singapore and this is our second trip to Japan, in October 2011 we went to DisneySea and Fuji-Q theme park, it was really crowded and every single ride took about 1.5 to 2 hours of queuing, we almost finished DisneySea's top attraction except indiana jones, as for Fuji-Q we missed out Eejainaka and Haunted Mansion, we are planning to get back to finish the rides and retake some of it if time permits.
This time we actually heard that there is Spring vacation during our trip lasting up to 7 April 2013? Not very sure if the information is true, but there seem to be no choice but to put some of the trip during the vacation, please advise if you predict the park to be very full and needs fast pass to get around.
We thought we could ask around here for the best possible tricks and ways to get around the park if anyone can help, below is a summary of our trip:
This year we are going from
31 March 2013 till 17 April 2013
31 March to 9 April in Tokyo(Ikkebukuro),
9 April to 14 April in Osaka(Dotonbori),
14 April to 16 April in Kyoto and the last day back in Tokyo.

TobuZoo - transport by train
Looking through the forum i saw a log of someone visiting this park during holidays and there is not much people, please confirm.
We saw that Tobuzoo, if we are not buying unlimited pass it will cost only 100 yen per ride on the website , is that true? If so then i do not think it is worth to purchase full day unlimited pass at 4800yen.

Disneyland - transport by train
This would be the last day of the spring break assuming we are right, i was thinking maybe it won't be as full since it is the last day and some might want to stay at home.

Fuji-Q - Transport by bus using the Q Pack(fuji-q tickets + bus from Shinjuku)
First day after spring break, we want to clear the rides we missed and retake some of them again! Because this is the most frustrating park among during the trip i do not want to waste any time to queue, which is why i place this park on this date.

Universal Studios Japan - Transport by train
Got to confirm with you guys are the fast pass tickets a must or worth it in your opinion?
How many would you purchase?
Is it possible to buy it only after i reach the park and see that it is crowded?
Is the queue long to purchase the fast pass?
Thanks in advance for the big help!
