The greeting boat parade cracked me up… announcement in English, song in English… character dialogue in Japanese 😂

[@blubba818]

Announcements and safety spiels are in both Japanese and English there. Sometimes Chinese too. Kind of like how they have a Spanish announcement after the English stateside.

[@blubba818]

But yes, the random amount of English is hilarious. Pirates is almost entirely in English.

[@KoyaKoala413]

That song during the boat parade was so beautiful!

[@dawnmerz6723]

After a stressful few days, this Tom’s Tokyo Vlog is the perfect brain massage. ☺️

[@NikeHM69]

Every time I see footage from Tokyo Disney I marvel at how clean and well run everything seems to be. I wish that the oriental land company managed the Orlando parks. 🏰

[@WDWNT]

Me too

[@frankies236]

It's really fallen off at Disneysea. When I went the other week, almost zero entertainment anymore.

[@waytoson]

@NikeHM69. I agree.. The Tokyo Disney Park seems so much more Disney than Orlando does... Makes me sad

[@NikeHM69]

@@waytoson Truth.

[@glennloucks1]

Is it the park maintenance or, is it the culture of the visitors, who are helping keep it clean and tidy? Hmmm?🤔

[@ccharles33]

Tokyo just does Disney the best. It’s crazy how fast and nimble that water float is!

[@kristophercannovan2226]

Loving these Vlogs! Keep them coming! Thank you Tom !

[@koopa159]

Between the Space Mountain Finale and the Fantasy Springs popcorn boxes I can’t wait to Tom’s final collection of food wrappers from this trip. XD

[@biancalovesdisney]

so many people have said it but the song during the fantasy springs greeting is so pretty 🌸

[@WDWNT]

❤️

[@Michaeland]

Japan in general! I was fortunate enough to visit DisneySea on its 21st DAY…and again from a lovely Mira Costa balcony room; so I deeply appreciate your love for it. Thanks for sharing it now. I hope it brings you great joy, as it has for me.

[@CapeSIX]

Tokyo really knows the Disney difference… It’s so sad we don’t have that anymore in America.

[@terrys4179]

I loved the boat parade and the beautiful song that was being sung! Tom I knew as soon as you showed that berry dessert it was going to be yummy! I'm happy for you that it was. Thanks for sharing all of these exciting things with us.

[@moogle140]

I’ll be in Japan in October and am so ready for 4 days at Disney! Your videos have been great

[@jgkidd82]

Another great video! ☺️🥰❤️ Can't wait untill the next one!

[@annemariec7659]

The merch is incredible. 😊

[@karebear3152]

The art used for the Fantasy Springs banners and on that sticker you got, I don't know what it is but they're just beautiful.

[@Tinkerellastreasuretrunk]

Love the adventure. And the people So very humble as I stated before. Very quiet and respectful. And the boat parade was lovely. And all the gifts much different than America. It’s a pleasure to experience.

[@princesssugarart4873]

Excited to see the new area/port! Peter Pan is my favorite animated movie. Thank you so much for doing these vlogs! ❤

[@jjmazzolini]

Great footage, Tom. The boat parade was a delight; I really enjoyed the music. And I think you have a winner in the name “Migueldorado” - I would attend that theme park, even if it was run on the world’s smallest budget. The berry mousse looked phenomenal, too. Thanks again for the coverage. Enjoy the adventure!

[@Liz.R]

A purple tortilla made the cut. A sticker, photo ops & shopping...seemed like a nice day to me. Thx Tom hang in there.🍀

[@OutSbrich]

Loving the blogs Tom! Keep stealing that font haha

[@beckstairs]

I have to go to work tomorrow and work a mundane 6 hour shift , I am truly jealous of your life , and it’s wonderful to watch , and I’m so very happy for you .smile more you have a great life 😊

[@melvinlee9263]

I don't know how you can say "Donald's Quacky Duck Kingdom" with a straight face...

[@Jarvel5]

Wow. Only 21 seconds to see Tom's face. He is getting good at this vlogging thing!

[@troymacdonald8257]

Awesome. Go Disney. ❤❤❤❤

[@StevenHarrington1920]

That Harbor Song is awesome! Thanks for doing Prices for stuff on this one Tom, can’t wait for the next one!

[@contessalouannec8064]

Thanks Tom Happy travels.

[@elizabethharrison7306]

You tube video channel Love my favorite one fan BIG 💖

[@imagiboomericrobison7908]

Loving these episodes!!!

[@meanderingmouse]

Imho the Best snack at SEA is the Yucatán sausage roll. Crispy sourdough bread wrapped around a tasty sausage (the gyoza sausage bun is a close second - go downstairs to the galley at mysterious island to avoid the stupid line for the ODV cart on the main level). There is an ODV cart near Indy where you can get it. I usually get two and grab a beer from the “Mexican”restaurant next to Indy. So dang good. Try it! Love these vlogs. Keep up the great work!

[@WDWNT]

I like that too, but Gyoza Dog is life

[@ellepowers89]

I voice postcards so a postcard holder/book is awesome

[@froggy9851]

Disney certainly doesn't accommodate for Diabetics... all that sugar is not a healthy thing!! I don't know what I could enjoy for food at any of the Disney parks,,, do they have many savory options? Thanks Tom!! Enjoyed the video!

[@angelr8910]

I absolutely love Tom’s coverage from Tokyo!! He is just Killing it!! The food and merch content is fascinating even without him showing anything else. I know it’s not my place but when he does the home talks could he raise the cam so there is less glare on his glasses so we can see him better. I understand when he does it in the park’s cause they want let him have the equipment. Just a thought. Also looking forward to someday in the life vlogs!!!

[@FountainChannel]

I love how excited everyone is about the Dreaming of Fantasy Springs event stuff and how its spread throughout the area. Really shows how to elegantly hype people up for a new area. Seems like in the US something big and new is only acknowledged by some social media posts and then it it just opens. Not really referenced in the park either. Like for big openings like guardians or probably tiana, if you weren't aware of the attraction on its opening or reopening day, you'd probably miss it (crowds aside obviously). Wish the $ in the US was spent more on being prideful that these new attractions and spaces in the parks exist rather than just being like "well here ya go enjoy"

[@captainmaerd]

I was just thinking about how the lead up to Bayou Adventure opening would be the perfect time to bring back Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee.

[@FountainChannel]

@@captainmaerd exactly! Or at minimum the posters they’ve been releasing online, post those up in the park and on the monorails. Or dare say bring back a monorail wrap for a bit, everyone seems to love those

[@captainmaerd]

@@FountainChannel is a little Mardi Gras celebration through the summer too much to ask for?

[@gillygillyyt55]

Thanks. It's saved me booking tickets.

[@traciecombs7030]

Very excited to see you eating your 1st "vegetarian" option- the tortilla sandwich. I've been legit worried about the food...🫤so much meat! Also.... those bigger Keychain look amazing on a purse or backpack....

[@adreeves2024]

Great Video, Tom. I really love the theme song. Will you be doing a longer video with the merchandise? Also, will you be touring the hotel gift stores? Do they offer different items than you can find in the parks? Thanks!

[@DjAnim8ted]

Why does Mickey sound an octave higher in Japanese!?

[@lynjenkins6473]

With US exchange rate 1 Yen = .65, you can drop about $7-10 off the price. Australia is about $ for Yen. Problem is the postage.

[@blubba818]

Thank you for saying that Miguel’s has the weirdest menu. It’s so weird!

[@exit-for]

🎉 GOOD MORNING .

[@johngoudy1070]

Please, excuse me, thank-you... those magical words - next to - Second Star to the Right - to be at Disneyland Tokyo & Disney Sea, April 18th - 20th 2025...

[@kimslack4793]

I was surprised to hear that announcement and song in English! I was under the impression I should expect only Japanese while I’m there. (Which would make sense of course)

[@michaelleblanc7974]

Enjoyed the video Tom. Thanks for what you do.

[@erikagholston6610]

All the merch looks adorable.

[@cheukyinglau8011]

Name of the song: Journey To Fantasy Springs

[@LMC_CD]

Tom is so chill in Tokyo, enjoy the trip 👍🏻

[@cybersecDad]

maybe its just me - but the robotic like sequences cast character actors have to do sometimes make me feel like they are humans trying to be Audio Animatronics.

[@himynameiscorey]

…Maybe Japan has extremely advanced animatronics

[@Michaeland]

Are you having fun Tom? Ofcourse TDR looks Wonderful.

[@WDWNT]

Of course I am

[@netizen_m3919]

Have they announced a soft opening date for FS?

[@WDWNT]

No

[@jeffhaddox2239]

I don’t know how prevalent Mexican food has infiltrated Japan since I left 40 years ago. I stumbled across a restaurant in Tokyo once that was very traditional Mexican food once in my two years there, another one in a port city I don’t remember the name of, the ship I was temporarily on stopped there one day in between Kagoshima and the home port of Yokosuka and that was it. I’ve gone onto google earth and it looks like the bars and restaurants just off the base in Yokosuka seems to have some taquerias there now. Do you plan any non park vlogs before you leave?

[@kazuthesamurai7346]

Love all the new merchandises and food items!! Here's a Tokyo-local tip you might love and appreciate, Tom. Cozy Corner, a historical-Japanese-confectionery chain from Ginza, will be selling Pokemon-themed cakes in two different variants from today through May. One of which is an Eeeveelution-themed assorted cake set that will blow your & your Japan vlog fans' mind!! lol Cozy Corner has partnerships with both Disney and Pokemon Company: you see them coming out with extremely cute and tasty sweets themed after those two companies almost every season 👍🏻 *The themed cakes are made to order, so please ask Hiroki or some of your Japanese friends to help you with your reservations.

[@WDWNT]

Thanks so much!

[@kazuthesamurai7346]

@@WDWNTOf course! Just in case if you decide to visit their original store in Ginza, I highly recommend you trying out their strawberry or any seasonal fruit parfaits ! They are unbelievably good !

[@weaseljavelin9443]

My name is Craig Dennis i watch your new videos all the time and i in joy all of your videos all the time and you have a rest of your trip and you take care👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

You're going to need to ship stuff back cause you'll never fit it all in your luggage.
