I was there yesterday. Now it makes sense. I was a bit disappointed with the entertainment and night fireworks because, I've been keeping up with Disneysea and I've always said that their entertainment was top notch and blew WDW out the water.

I'm a huge TDR especially TDS fan from Indonesia I visited TDS last may for a day trip and was disappointed if i compared it with my long stay in 2016. I didn't enjoy the atmosphere because I was on my phone looking at the schedule and queues (miss the old fast pass system). I think Fantasmic was wayyy better than Believe! Sea of dreams. I miss Ariel's grotto and pre-pandemic Big Band Beat. Even though I didn't enter it, I was hoping they made a meet and greet area in Fantasy Springs. Watching your video about the hotel also disappoints me🥲 I'm hoping they're planning something BIG for TDS 25th anniversary in 2026 knowing they lost to USJ for top attendance

The staring at the phone for most of your day thing is a real issue. It’s hard to argue with the convenience of seeing all the park info and booking passes and whatnot right there in your phone, but it does take away from that moment you enter the park and see the castle when you have to get all your passes immediately. I miss Ariel too, agree that Fantasmic was much better than Believe and Big Band Beat was my favorite Disney theater show of all time so I’m with you buddy!!

That news dropped after I recorded the video, but that’s correct! Yeah it’s hard to get excited about a show that only 1% of guests, most of which getting there early and paying extra, will be able to see. A constantly running Mermaid Lagoon Theater show would do a lot more for the majority of guests but I think we’re a way off that

I’m a huge fan of TDR from Korea. I’ve been there since 2011 and completely agree with you. I can see their desperation to reduce the budget. Harmony of Colour was already a huge disappointment, and the Fantasy Springs was just a joke-there were nothing but rides! I genuinely miss the days when they changed the seasonal parades every year. Beside, I kinda getting tired of enjoying the show due to many otaku people.

My upcoming trip is booked for January because of the pal-palooza, missed it last year but came for the Minnie Besties Bash in 2023. Not unhappy that it is Vanellope but was hoping for one of the Mickey and Friends characters (probably like most locals) but oh well. :) Would say that the seasonal events are a major contributing decider for visitors, if free to pick any time. As you mentioned the normal stuff is always there, so can be experienced any time of the year. Helps in planning if can just narrow it down to what unique event is on. For example my preference for WDW is also start of the year just for the Festival of the Arts. And I keep saying to myself it has nothing to do with the extreme heat in the summer....

As a solo traveler is easier to just slip to the side into some space if things get too hectic.

I don't really know, but I guess it's more of an East Asian thing? I personally wasn't like that before but after getting into KPOP and all the things it comes with, I've been transformed from someone that wouldn't even want to waste 20 minutes in a line to someone that would be willing to line up the night before a ticket or merch sale hahaha. I've carried that trait since then that I went to the Tokyo parks at 5 AM just to line up early for the 1st day of the Halloween celebration at TDL and around 6 AM at TDS just to get into Fantasy Springs. I even saved my spot for parades and shows around 1-2 hours before it even started. I think people are just passionate enough that they're willing to make that extra effort; lining up for merch, rides, popcorn, etc. As long as they're fine with it and think it's worth it, then there's nothing really inherently wrong with it.

Great video! I have to say that as much as I love parades, I’m not sure if I would want to wait several hours waiting for one if I was taking a trip to Tokyo Disneyland and only being there for a few days. I could see why locals would want to, but having to be there several hours before the park even opens just to get a spot and then wait several more for the parade to begin would take up so much time.

Thanks friend! You’re absolutely right. For locals that’s the one thing they’re paying for with their park ticket so many of them are happy to dedicate the whole day to that, if you’re visiting from abroad the normal entertainment will be more than enough, so go and enjoy the rest of the park!

40:10 You're right the Gondolas very much hold special memories for me as it was my first ever ride on any Disney park. The biggest highlight for me was surprisingly not the extremely beautiful Venice theming nor was it the breathtaking view of Mt Prometheus, but rather the lovely staff members who went above and beyond to make this little boat ride even more special. They were so kind and helpful throughout the entire ride; they interacted and entertained the guests while we were in queue, the boatman sang a little song that actually led up to the big Mt Prometheus reveal, I don't think most of that ride would be memorable if it weren't for the incredible staff.

This store is literally always empty and nobody ever buys anything. They dont even sell splash merch anymore and critter country specific merch is scarce, so theres no reason to shop here over anywhere else in the park. Its at an awkward spot and it makes sense to close it when that labor could be put elsewhere. They closed Splashdown photos and the saloon was closed for a while too. I dont think this store closing has anything to do with Splash itself. That being said, they could have just kept making splash merch and im sure people would flock to this store.

Regular stores across Japan also close dead on time and start to shove out all the guests about 15 minutes before closing time and the famous melody chime playing announcing the closing. It's especially bizarre here in Osaka in the shopping street full of people and the stores full of customers that they are interrupted mid way and are shown the door. Then after 8pm you walk the streets full of potential buyers but all the shops are closed. I especially hate it when rushing to buy something after you've just finished your work you basically have like 1-2 hours to run around the shopping street in a hurry before they kick you out. Don't need customer's money, huh.. Also you know the parks can be better because you've been to other parks in other countries. Most Japanese never traveled outside Japan and can't imagine how things are out there, so Tokyo Disney Resort is the only (the standard) one, they will ever know. There's basically no reference level to anything.

There's less singing but I guess that would be fine. I honestly wish they could have done this here in America and just put Tiana ride in Fantasyland. Both Splash had a lot of old animatronics that I think could have been reused and the land could've change without much of a problem.
