This is why I love Tokyo Disneyland, they actually maintain attractions, keep the parks clean, attractions we love are still open, new stuff added to Disneyland, and DisneySea are not built cheaply, and it’s owned by OLC.

[@skinnyminny25]

Wait do the characters speak English then Japanese?

[@obnoxiouslegofan]

I heard Princess and the Frog wasn't that popular in Japan. Adding to the fact that Disney doesn't own Tokyo Disneyland

The American Disney parks need to take notes. Japan’s kicking their butts!

[@goo83]

its a great comfort knowing that i'll still get to ride this again someday. i think its safe in Tokyo for many years to come. stateside Disney has lot its way and made a mistake taking away SM but the greatest version still lives on just a little further away. its so great to see every animatronic working optimally and everything clean as it was the day it opened!

Who's watching this after they just released Tiana's POV at Disney World? It's not even close how much more enjoyable this seems.

[@rosalynnlazar-wolfe1477]

I had to watch this with my kids after watching Tiana's travesty. What a tremendous loss, the new ride doesn't have any heart in comparison!

[@Jarhead5995]

Sadly I am. The part that really gets me is the fact that Magic Kingdom is already overcrowded to begin with, so why not just expand the park with new ideas? It’s not like Disney doesn’t have the money for expanding the park. Tiana’s story felt uninspired and bland. There’s no conflict to help guide the ride imo, had there been some tension it may have worked. But that’s just my take on the situation I’m not the multi billionaire company.

[@pirate-chan4381]

you caught me, lol. The Tiana ride has no story. it's just.. find the band! literally 2 mins later: we found the band! Go to the party! No reason for the log flume drop. Meanwhile, Br'er rabbit has a full story

Tokyo Disney is what I remember Disney's Magic Kingdom used to be. They did things big and spectacular, and didn't let maintenance slide. Their Castle Park is like a best of, and they don't bonk off rides just because it looks good on spreadsheets or something dumb. They are keeping this magnificent version of Splash Mountain because they know A. It's huge in Japan, they love the cute critters and the songs! and B. All the American tourists that will no doubt be flowing through the gates for nostalgia. The only mistake this park made was the Tiki Room Retheme. That was bad.

I'm not an expert on our versions in the US, but it seems like this version in Tokyo has more to it and is more vivid.

Excellent job again! xoxo

It’s because they aren’t keeping up the rides here in America. Disney World’s looked like this nearly 30 years ago lol

Why does Tokyo Disney have to be sooooo perfect.....🥺

[@mattmiller9809]

Tokyo would be insane to retheme their Splash Mountain due to the revenue it brings in. Disneyland's retheme makes the most sense. Disney world's retheme makes no sense at all thematically but we'll see what they decide to do. You'll be missed America's Splash Mountain

[@gwenmloveskpopandmore]

Yeah luckily DLT isn’t owned by Disney

[@ised-5239]

Because California Disneyland's Critter Country settings are themed to Louisiana Bayou as a transition from New Orleans Square so Princess Tiana ride fits the theming and Tokyo's Critter Country is themed to Western village of Texas/Arizona/New Mexico and Mexico as well like Frontierland.

[@eaj626]

I agree, Tiana's ride being in Frontierland doesn't make much sense at first glance, but neither does Splash Mountain. Both rides take place in the deep south but are in an area themed around the American west. They'll make Tiana's ride work just like they did with Splash Mountain I'm sure.

[@benjaminroberson1924]

Because the Japanese parks are not owned by Disney, they are owned by the Oriental Land Company, meaning that Disney doesn't have to spend the money on anything, because OLC does. It's why they have Tokyo DisneySea, the best theme park in the world, while America is stuck with things like Toy Story Land instead.

Since Tokyo Disneyland's Critter Country setting theme resembles Texas/New Mexico, thus the land is Tokyo Disneyland's margarita earth due to Texas and New Mexico are US states that ever have margarita trails and have unique recipe of the cocktail.

I’ve never ridden Splash Mountain. It’s a shame this will be the remaining one left on this world however I think there have been discussions of TDR re-theming this ride but there are no actual plans in place as I think the only reason they wouldn’t want to re-theme their version of Splash Mountain is because they would have to re-do the whole of Critter Country as the theming of their version is based on the ride and their version of Critter Country is also smaller than the one in California

Yes in LA's Disneyland the retheme may work because Critter Country is themed after Louisiana/New Orleans Bayou as it is made as a perfect blend with the New Orleans Square whereas in WDW Splash is in Frontierland, the land of the cowboys and Tokyo Disneyland's Critter Country is themed like Frontierland with Texas/New Mexico style settings and is a continuation and sub-land of the park's Westernland.

I always kinda disliked how you could see the castle and space mountain in Florida. Also, the transitions from outdoor to indoor portions have tunnels to minimize the amount of sunlight entering. Neat little touches that just show how superior this version is.

As a matter of fact, it did, it had a VHS release in Japan similar to the UK, Germany and other European countries, the movie itself is also public domain over there under Japanese copyright law. Also, most people were introduced to the Br’er characters through splash, you don’t have to watch the movie to understand what’s going on.

If Splash Mountain is to be renewed, Tiana is not well known in Japan, so I do not think it will be changed as in Florida or Anaheim. If it were to be changed, it would probably be renewed for a popular film in Japan, like "Zootopia" for example.

[@ThatFandubGirl]

I guess I'm biased because I grew up with the splash in disneyland, I just love everything about the one that was in Disneyland. The music, the animatronics, the show scenes. They all just looked so much better at least to me compared to this one and Disney World. The tokyo one is definitely more based around the one in WDW than Disneyland, which isnt a bad thing but it definitely wasnt my favorite version, and neither is this one. It always seems to me that the original versions of rides are always the best, and splash is no exception, i think the one in Disneyland was absolutely perfect. But im still glad that Splash Mountain will still live on in some capacity on this Earth. Annoying this one hardly has any english so cant understand it, but at least its something.

This looks so cool! I'd never go to an American Disney park again in my lifetime, but I think before I die I have to go to Japan's Disneyland, this is legit! I won't understand what they're saying lol, but it will still be cool. I'm 1/4 Japanese, and 3/4 Scandinavian, they most definitely will not like me there haha....they don't even like American Japanese people, let alone partial Japanese like myself. Oh well, it is what it is I never identified with that part of me my entire life, so can't fault the real people to accept me as one of them haha.

[@CHURCHBOYCHARLIE]

The only bad thing (but then again, what do you expect?😅😂) is the audio is in Japanese.

The amount of splash you get during the fall changes depending on which season you visit Tokyo Disneyland. If you wish to be soaking wet, go there during the months of July and August

Too bad it’s Mudfish Mountain now in the US

[@rinleytobler9942]

I went to the same one it was fun I wanna try the tianas

[@RoyalFizzbin]

I see this version lacks the exciting “full submersion” section that the US version has.

[@idk-zt8rx]

That's because it gets really cold in tokyo. We had to dress up in thick clothing for late spring. Imagine being soaked on a really cold day that also happens to be humid

[@judydenver5362]

They actually add more water soaking, in the warmer months with techno!! how FUN!!!

It’s closing September 6, 2023! I searched it up on google. It’s true

[@voiydexe]

fake

[@colliric]

No it ain't.

[@idk-zt8rx]

Bro, the ride is scheduled for a refurb that will take place on november 2023 before opening again on december 2023. It's not going to be rethemed. Period.

Yeah, but.... how do the Japanese people feel about this?

[@alberquiky1]

They love it? The Japanese don't have white guilt, about something they didn't participate in. (Not that anyone now has suffered from it.) Not to mention that by removing any references to song of the south, you are removing the fact that the main actor, was the first black man to win an oscar, and they are erasing his achievement. That's what is truly racist.

[@davidguthrie6316]

They are probably happy the ride is here to stay. There are a lot of surveys conducted throughout the park. People LOVE Splash Mountain in Japan. And that's saying something since Tokyo is VERY VERY cold

[@cuca402]

I was there last summer! It had the longest line in the park-it literally went outside the queue and wrapped around Frontierland. It was just an average Thursday. The cool thing about TDL is that every e-ticket ride has its major, diehard fans that dress up, bring plushies, and go all out, and Splash definitely had many. I have no doubt that most guests think it is original IP and do not know about its origins.

Glad OLC are smart and would NEVER change it to Tianas Flop Adventure

[@judydenver5362]
