The Official TPR Update Thread!

Since we are leaving for Japan again at the end of this week, I'm going to post a few Tokyo Disney trip reports from our 2013 Japan Trip that I never got around to doing. I'm sure people don't mind seeing even MORE Tokyo Disney, do they?

I really want to check out this park some day. It just looks so amazing!

[cfc]

That trolley park they built for Toy Story Mania looks great--particularly after dark (just like an old-fashioned seaside amusement park).

[rctneil]

Robb, Did you have to remind me of how much I miss this place?

 

Tokyo Disney Resort is amazing, especially DisneySea! the rides, the friendliness, the details and theming are all outstanding.

 

Only thing I regret is not seeing all the endings of Stormrider!

 

I will 100% be back sometime as it was an excellent few days and thoroughly enjoyed wandering around it all and seeing everything the parks had to offer. (oh and getting introduced to the wonders of Gyoza).

 

Slightly OT: I walked past the Disney Store in the Trafford Centre a few weeks ago and some staff members were outside asking people who their favourite Disney character was (Not sure why) and I got asked, I said Shiriki and was told, not surprisingly that they had never heard of him). Oh well. Shiriki FTW!

One of these days I'll get to TOkyo Disney, I swear I will. That resort just looks absolutely fantastic.

[SuperShawn]

So miss Tokyo Disney and must get back there at some point in the next few years.

[Kyle Coleman]

Off to start saving for the tpr 2015 japan tour now.

[soldier148]

One day I'll get out there, even if I have to go by myself. Maybe they'll add a Tokyo DisneyAir park that floats in the sky

[Woodie Warrior]

I absolutely love reading through Tokyo Disney trip reports

[Nrthwnd]

Unfortunately, I had to make a choice between the Wierd Parks of Japan Tour, just about to start up (Have Fun Guys!) and the Scandinavian Tour (in June) for this year's tour. It's been five years since the first Scandi tour, so I always wanted to return and visit/ride their parks & coasters again. So, Scandi won over Japan. This time.

 

Still, this report isn't helping me out with how I decided, lol.

And I do want to go back to Japan, at least a couple more times.

Uncle Bernie's is TOTALLY #2! It's my home park!

[robbalvey]

Here is another installment from our 2013 Tokyo Disneyland visit! Really getting pumped up for our trip here next week!

Looks like an amazing place. Maybe time to start piling up money for a Business Class ticket to see it one day...

[Garet]

I'm so glad my job and my impending marriage means i'm 1) a 30 minute drive from Everland (even if i'm the only person in the world who doesn't like the place right now) and more importantly 2) only a short flight away from Tokyo. Really will need to do another trip during a few weekdays when its not in-line with the rest of Korea and Japan's vacation time.

I heard there's a secret arena in that little area where no-one goes where randomly picked visitors jelly-wrestle for exclusive Duffy merchandise that can only be obtained by becoming the ultimate champion of the day.

[Nrthwnd]

^ LOL, if that was true and available, the "randomly picked" would probably still be

some kind of lottery system, knowing how Tokyo Disney works with these things/events.

[Movieguy]

Tokyo Disney just looks awesome all-around. I still remember one of the first videos I saw from this site, way back when. It was from the first Japan-a-mania tour in 2004, and it was my first look at Disneysea, and the awesome Journey to The Center of The Earth attraction. It'll be great to see it all again once the first round of updates comes around.

 

This is one of the parks I want to see at some point in my lifetime.

[disney4me2001]

I already really wanted to go to Tokyo Disneyland, and this update only makes me want to go even more! As in, if I had the money, I'd be booking a flight to Japan tomorrow...

[urzishra]

I like how they have a million different popcorn flavors. My wife said "you don't need any other kind of snack food." I agree.

[Nrthwnd]

For example....

From a much earlier TPR tour of Disney Sea. "Flavors Are Subject to Change" (o;

[Garet]

Here is the popcorn from my last trip, with also some handywork thrown in from the japanese cleaners during the snow and later melted snow of the weekend. I don't think i'd be able to work as a cleaner in Japan, the sweepers had far more talent with their mops, 2 minutes and rainwater than I can manage with an hour and a pencil.

[FreeFaller]

Every time I see these different sorts of popcorn, I want to take a flight to Tokyo Disney and enjoy all of them! I really hope TPR is doing another trip there next summer and I'll be able to join them. Japan looks amazing!

[A.J.]

So, I finally have a reason to follow the Tokyo Disney Resort updates...

 

...an Oswald meet and greet! So exciting!

[cfc]

The only flavored popcorn that I didn't care much for at Tokyo Disney was chocolate back in 2007 (didn't quite work), and I think I may have been the only one in the group who liked the soy-sauce-and-butter popcorn last year.

 

But curry popcorn is always great.
