0:00 - 0:03[MUSIC]
-
0:13 - 0:14What a beautiful day!
-
0:14 - 0:17Today, it's the opening day of
Universal Studios Japan (USJ), -
0:17 - 0:19Donkey Kong area.
-
0:19 - 0:21We are at Nishikujo Station now.
-
0:21 - 0:24This is the station that you need
to transfer the train -
0:24 - 0:28either you are coming from
Osaka Station or Namba Station. -
0:28 - 0:33JR Yumesaki Line is mostly heading to USJ.
-
0:33 - 0:36So probably, most of them heading to USJ.
-
0:36 - 0:38So, train just arrived.
-
0:38 - 0:40We gotta ride on this train.
-
0:40 - 0:43Oh, look at that.
That's a Super Mario train. -
0:43 - 0:48Some trains from Osaka Station
directly going to USJ. -
0:48 - 0:50However, either way,
-
0:50 - 0:53even that train will stop at
this Nishikujo Station, too. -
0:53 - 0:57So, just remember this Nishikujo Station.
-
0:57 - 1:01By the way, there is a Bentencho Station
next to this station. -
1:01 - 1:04If you are coming to Japan
for the Osaka Expo, -
1:04 - 1:07you need to transfer the train
in that train. -
1:07 - 1:10So, before the Osaka Expo is coming,
I will make a video about it. -
1:10 - 1:12So, please look forward to it.
-
1:12 - 1:14One thing you have to be careful is that
-
1:14 - 1:17there is a "Women Only" train
for the weekday. -
1:17 - 1:21There is a sign in front
of train track too. -
1:21 - 1:24Well, technically, it's
not restricted by law. -
1:24 - 1:27But if the male ride on
the "Women Only" train, -
1:27 - 1:29everyone looking at you
with the weird eyes. -
1:29 - 1:31So, you gotta be careful.
-
1:31 - 1:34Seems like train is almost leaving.
Let's ride on. -
1:34 - 1:36It's only two stations away.
-
1:55 - 1:56Sweet!
-
1:56 - 1:58We arrived to USJ.
-
1:58 - 2:02Seems like so many people
visiting USJ today. -
2:06 - 2:09Well, it is the opening day,
so it's supposed to be. -
2:09 - 2:12Anyways, so let's go to the
Universal CityWalk. -
2:12 - 2:14You just need to go upstairs.
-
2:14 - 2:17Usually Japan's escalator,
people stands one side. -
2:17 - 2:21However, because so many
travelers here today, -
2:21 - 2:25so that's why the escalator, too, it
becomes the international standard. -
2:25 - 2:29There is only one exit here,
so you will not get lost. -
2:29 - 2:32There is a ticket counter
in front of the station. -
2:32 - 2:36However, it will be super crowded
after USJ's closing time. -
2:36 - 2:38So, you gotta be careful.
-
2:38 - 2:41The best way is getting the train IC card.
-
2:41 - 2:43ICOCA is the Osaka version of SUICA.
-
2:43 - 2:45Basically ICOCA, SUICA, it's same.
-
2:45 - 2:47You can use it everywhere in Japan.
-
2:47 - 2:50There is a new coin locker
in front of the station. -
2:50 - 2:52It seems like regular coin locker.
-
2:52 - 2:55But this coin locker is something special.
-
2:55 - 2:59If you place a luggage here, you can
directly send it to the hotel. -
2:59 - 3:02Now, there are only several
hotels available. -
3:02 - 3:04However, it will be more and more.
-
3:04 - 3:07Price cost depends on the luggage size.
-
3:07 - 3:09Small one is 1,900 Japanese yen.
-
3:09 - 3:13And the large size is
2,800 Japanese yen. -
3:13 - 3:15So, let's keep walking.
-
3:15 - 3:18Today, 11th of December.
-
3:18 - 3:23Temperature is 11°C,
wind is 3 m/s, 63% humidity. -
3:24 - 3:25Well, I don't know.
-
3:25 - 3:29It says only 3 m/s wind, but
I feel like it's cooler though. -
3:29 - 3:30Oh, by the way...
-
3:30 - 3:31Hey guys!
Welcome back to Rion's TV! -
3:31 - 3:33I'm Rion. Seeno... Gao!!
-
3:33 - 3:36Please don't forget to
check my Instagram, too. -
3:36 - 3:37All right, so let's keep walking.
-
3:37 - 3:40Osaka is my hometown.
-
3:40 - 3:42I've been here since I was a kid.
-
3:42 - 3:45There are so many nice restaurant
in Universal CityWalk. -
3:45 - 3:48I will introduce it after
the Donkey Kong area. -
3:48 - 3:53But beforehand, let me grab some
onigiri riceball at konbini. -
3:53 - 3:54Let's go.
-
3:54 - 3:57If you are visiting here
during wintertime, -
3:57 - 4:00they are selling the heat pack.
-
4:00 - 4:03Price is only 52 Japanese yen per one.
-
4:03 - 4:07It continues 16 hours.
It will be much warmer. -
4:07 - 4:09So, don't forget to get one.
-
4:09 - 4:12There are so many onigiri rice balls.
-
4:12 - 4:14Seems like many onigiri is
already sold out. -
4:15 - 4:18Let me get ikura soy sauce flavor.
-
4:18 - 4:21Sweet. Price was 279 Japanese yen.
-
4:21 - 4:23It's the fancy onigiri.
-
4:23 - 4:26Cheap one starting from 150 Japanese yen.
-
4:26 - 4:30Oh, sweet! There's a cute
Minion Christmas tree. -
4:30 - 4:35Outside of USJ, there is a
souvenir store, too. -
4:35 - 4:38They have so many different kinds
of souvenir even outside. -
4:38 - 4:43So, you can enjoy shopping and
atmosphere, even you don't enter USJ. -
4:43 - 4:48Oh, yeah, from here already,
we see the gate of USJ. -
4:48 - 4:51It's really close from the station.
-
4:51 - 4:55This King Kong is a signature sign of USJ.
-
4:55 - 4:58But today, we are meeting the Donkey Kong.
-
4:58 - 5:01Yep, it's the Japanese version
of King Kong. -
5:01 - 5:03There is a Sushiro, too.
-
5:03 - 5:05Yes! Japan stuff.
-
5:05 - 5:09It became the Donkey Kong version. Sweet!
-
5:15 - 5:18Before entering there, let's eat onigiri.
-
5:18 - 5:21Well, I'm planning to visit the
restaurant in Super Mario area. -
5:21 - 5:25But it might be super, super crowded,
since it's the opening day. -
5:25 - 5:27So, I'd better eat onigiri first.
-
5:27 - 5:30It's my favorite onigiri, ikura
-
5:36 - 5:38One thing you have to be careful is that
-
5:38 - 5:42even there are so many nice restaurant
at Universal CityWalk, -
5:42 - 5:44but you can't re-entry.
-
5:44 - 5:46Disneyland accept the re-entry.
-
5:46 - 5:51However, USJ doesn't accept the
re-entry for the most of day. -
5:51 - 5:53Unless you have the Annual Pass.
-
5:53 - 5:58So, if you are not planning
to eat inside USJ, -
5:58 - 6:01make sure to eat before enter.
-
6:01 - 6:05However, inside USJ, there are
many nice restaurant. -
6:05 - 6:07The food quality and price,
-
6:07 - 6:10compared to the other theme
park, it's pretty good, too. -
6:10 - 6:14So, you can always eat inside USJ.
-
6:14 - 6:17One problem is they might
be super crowed. -
6:17 - 6:19So, yeah, that's something
you gotta worry about. -
6:21 - 6:25All right! Let's keep walking. Let's go!
-
6:25 - 6:28After the gate, there is a ticket counter.
-
6:28 - 6:31And also. Universal City Globe.
-
6:31 - 6:35Seems like, still, fewer people taking
photo with Universal City Globe. -
6:36 - 6:39Around the park closing time,
it will be super crowded. -
6:39 - 6:43So, if you are thinking of taking a
photo with Universal City Globe, -
6:43 - 6:45probably, when you get here
-
6:45 - 6:47would be the best time to
take a photo, I believe. -
6:47 - 6:52Here, they sell the Express Pass,
and also, the ticket. -
6:52 - 6:54But you can always buy at the website.
-
6:54 - 6:57So, make sure to get one
before you come over here. -
6:57 - 6:59Especially if you are planning to
-
6:59 - 7:01buy the Donkey Kong Express Pass,
-
7:01 - 7:05it will be sold out, so make sure to get
one before you come over here. -
7:05 - 7:08Studio Pass price always changes.
-
7:08 - 7:12Average is about 9,000 Japanese yen.
-
7:12 - 7:15However, if you come over here
more than two times, -
7:15 - 7:19probably, you'd better
get the Annual Pass, -
7:19 - 7:22so that you can re-entry, too.
-
7:22 - 7:25They also have Twilight Pass,
which is cheaper. -
7:25 - 7:27You can enter after 3:00 p.m.
-
7:27 - 7:30Well, but if it's your first
time to visit here, -
7:30 - 7:33definitely, I recommend you to get
the 1 Day Pass though. -
7:33 - 7:38Oh my goodness, seems like there's
a long line for the entrance. -
7:38 - 7:41One thing you have to be careful is that
-
7:41 - 7:45if you have a bigger tripod,
bigger than the hand size, -
7:45 - 7:47they will not let you enter.
-
7:47 - 7:50So eventually, you are
using the coin locker, -
7:50 - 7:53which is too expensive only
for the tripod placing. -
7:53 - 7:57So, if you are having the big tripod,
you gotta be careful. -
7:57 - 8:00Haha, they increase the security level.
-
8:00 - 8:01It's like the airport now.
-
8:01 - 8:02All right, let's go!
-
8:02 - 8:03Sweet!
-
8:05 - 8:10Finally, we came back to the USJ!
-
8:10 - 8:12Oh, there is a Christmas version
Shriek over here. -
8:12 - 8:14Speaking of the coin locker,
-
8:14 - 8:17they have a same one in front
of the entrance, too. -
8:17 - 8:21This middle size costs 500 Japanese yen.
-
8:21 - 8:23If there is a key, it means available.
-
8:23 - 8:26But seems like most of
the locker is occupied. -
8:26 - 8:31However, in other lanes, so
many coin lockers are available. -
8:31 - 8:35Oh my goodness, super nice smell
from this popcorn store! -
8:35 - 8:38They sell the Super Mario popcorn bucket.
-
8:38 - 8:42Price is 5,500 Japanese yen.
-
8:42 - 8:44That's a nice one.
-
8:44 - 8:47And huge Christmas tree over there.
-
8:47 - 8:49We are getting there later.
-
8:49 - 8:51Well, since I've been here like 100 times,
-
8:51 - 8:54the first thing to do is different.
-
8:54 - 8:57So, let me show you what the pros do.
-
8:57 - 9:00Most of the ride is right side.
-
9:00 - 9:05However, we are heading to the left side.
-
9:05 - 9:08Yes... This is the way to go.
-
9:09 - 9:11It is a quiet area.
-
9:11 - 9:14Pretty much we can do nothing.
-
9:14 - 9:16Except...
-
9:16 - 9:18...getting the Annual Pass.
-
9:18 - 9:20They open from 12:00 p.m.
-
9:20 - 9:22It will be opening in 12 minutes.
-
9:22 - 9:25And already, there are so
many people making a line. -
9:25 - 9:28If you come visit here around
afternoon time, -
9:28 - 9:29there will be so long line.
-
9:29 - 9:32And you have to wait
for a long time, so... -
9:32 - 9:36Better renew it in early time if you are
planning to get the Annual Pass. -
9:36 - 9:42Seems like they open it little
bit earlier, so it's much faster. -
9:42 - 9:45And we get to renew Annual Pass here.
-
9:45 - 9:49So already, I got the Annual Pass.
It only take about 20 minutes. -
9:50 - 9:51It was fast.
-
9:51 - 9:54My reservation time of
Donkey Kong is from 1:00 p.m. -
9:54 - 9:56So, we still have time.
-
9:56 - 9:59Now, they are having the collab
with Kimetsu no Yaiba again. -
9:59 - 10:03You wear the VR goggles
and ride the coaster. -
10:03 - 10:04It's really fun ride.
-
10:04 - 10:07Seems like waiting time is 130 minutes.
-
10:07 - 10:09It's a popular ride.
-
10:10 - 10:13They also have collab foods, too.
-
10:13 - 10:15Haha, look at this Nezuko.
-
10:15 - 10:19Whipped donuts. It looks
pretty cute and looks good. -
10:19 - 10:20Let's eat it!
-
10:20 - 10:23There is not the long line,
so we can order soon. -
10:25 - 10:27Arigato gozaimasu! Itadakimasu!
-
10:28 - 10:29All right, sweet!
-
10:29 - 10:31Haha, it looks pretty cute.
-
10:31 - 10:33Oh my goodness, it looks pretty good.
-
10:33 - 10:35Price was 750 Japanese yen.
-
10:35 - 10:39I feel a bit sorry to eat,
but itadakimasu! -
10:45 - 10:48Inside, there is a matcha cream.
-
10:48 - 10:52So, it really good matches
with sweet donut. -
10:52 - 10:56USJ, they always have collab
with something. -
10:56 - 10:58And also, they have a restaurant, too.
-
10:58 - 11:00And the best part,
the restaurant quality, -
11:00 - 11:03compared to the other theme park,
it's pretty good. -
11:03 - 11:07So, if you've never tried,
definitely, you gotta try that. -
11:10 - 11:15Oh, we only have 30 minutes, so
let's go to the Mario World area. -
11:16 - 11:19Since it's the school trip
time for the students, -
11:19 - 11:23there are so many students in USJ today.
-
11:23 - 11:27So now, let me explain how to
enter to the Donkey Kong area. -
11:27 - 11:31Basically, Donkey Kong area is
connected to Super Mario World. -
11:31 - 11:34As long as you can enter
to the Nintendo World, -
11:34 - 11:36you can enter to the
Donkey Kong world as well. -
11:36 - 11:40So basically, there are two options
to enter without paying money. -
11:40 - 11:46The first one, just come over to the USJ
in very earlier time and be in line. -
11:46 - 11:51In the morning, they have an entrance
ticket that you can surely enter. -
11:51 - 11:55And after [it's] out,
they have the lottery ticket -
11:55 - 11:58Now, they seems like only the lottery one.
-
11:58 - 12:01You can join the lotto over here.
-
12:01 - 12:03So, here's a ticket machine.
-
12:03 - 12:05And you need to let them scan your ticket.
-
12:05 - 12:10Make sure to let them scan
all of the group's tickets, -
12:10 - 12:13so that everyone can join the
lottery at the same time. -
12:13 - 12:16So, those are the time slot
that are available. -
12:16 - 12:19Seems like until 6:50 p.m.
-
12:19 - 12:24So, let me try to get from 5:20 p.m.
-
12:24 - 12:27because, probably, it will be darker.
-
12:27 - 12:30And they will have the
different atmosphere. -
12:30 - 12:32So, after you get a lottery ticket,
-
12:32 - 12:36just scan the QR code one hour
before the entrance time. -
12:36 - 12:38And you can know the result.
-
12:38 - 12:41However, well, according to my experience,
-
12:41 - 12:45you can have the very, very little
chance to enter the Mario World -
12:45 - 12:47even if you join the lotto.
-
12:47 - 12:50So, if you want to join to
the Nintendo Mario World, -
12:50 - 12:53make sure to come over
here in earlier time. -
12:53 - 12:57Today's opening time is
from 8:00 a.m. officially. -
12:57 - 13:00However, they actually
opened it from 7:15 a.m. -
13:00 - 13:04which is about 45 minutes
earlier than usual. -
13:04 - 13:06Sometimes they open earlier.
-
13:06 - 13:09So, if you want to join to
the Mario World for sure, -
13:09 - 13:12yeah, just come over here earlier time.
-
13:12 - 13:14That's the entrance of Harry Potter.
-
13:14 - 13:17But we are going there later.
-
13:17 - 13:21Firstly, Super Mario World,
Nintendo's World. -
13:21 - 13:23Oh my goodness, look at the crowd.
-
13:25 - 13:26Wow.
-
13:26 - 13:30Even there's a long line in front
of Jaws photo spot, too. -
13:31 - 13:33Can't believe it's a weekday.
-
13:33 - 13:37Usually, it was not that crowded
on the weekday. -
13:37 - 13:41But today, maybe because it's
the opening day of Donkey Kong. -
13:41 - 13:47The entrance of Super Nintendo World
is right next to Jurassic Park. -
13:47 - 13:48Haha...
-
13:48 - 13:51That seems like pretty scary.
-
13:51 - 13:54If you find the sign of
Super Nintendo World, -
13:54 - 13:56yes, you are on the right track.
-
13:56 - 13:58So, my reservation is from 1:00 p.m.
-
13:58 - 14:03But seems like they will let me
enter a little bit earlier time. -
14:03 - 14:07All right! Here we go! Let's go!
-
14:07 - 14:09So, speaking of my ticket,
-
14:09 - 14:12I got the ticket before coming over here.
-
14:12 - 14:16It's the Express Pass, and
it cost 6,600 Japanese yen. -
14:16 - 14:19Well, for me, I feel a bit expensive.
-
14:19 - 14:24However, that Express ticket
include either photo -
14:24 - 14:28or 2,000-Japanese-yen
Nintendo store's ticket. -
14:28 - 14:32Well, but you know,
it's the opening day, so... -
14:32 - 14:34One thing you have to be careful is that
-
14:34 - 14:37the Express Pass ticket
also sold out quickly. -
14:37 - 14:40So, if you are planning
to come visit here, -
14:40 - 14:43make sure to get one as early as possible.
-
14:43 - 14:47They used to have the entrance over
here, but they changed the place. -
14:47 - 14:50Yes! It's Super Nintendo World over there.
-
14:50 - 14:54Here we go! I'm super excited!
Let's keep walking! -
14:54 - 14:58There is a stroller parking beside
the Super Nintendo World. -
14:58 - 15:01If you want to fully enjoy the
Super Nintendo World, -
15:01 - 15:03you need to get the Power-Up Band.
-
15:03 - 15:06But without Power-Up Band,
you can still enjoy it, too. -
15:06 - 15:10It will cost 4,900 Japanese yen,
so it's a bit pricey. -
15:10 - 15:14Last time when we were here,
we could take a photo freely here. -
15:14 - 15:17But seems like now,
they are selling the photo. -
15:17 - 15:19It will cost 2,200 Japanese yen.
-
15:19 - 15:23But if you can have the nice photo,
I think it's worth it. -
15:23 - 15:24So...
-
15:24 - 15:28Let's get into the dokan!
-
15:28 - 15:30Let's go!
-
15:30 - 15:31Mario!
-
15:33 - 15:36After pass the Koopa Castle...
-
15:36 - 15:39Oh, sorry, in English,
it's a Bowser Castle. -
15:39 - 15:41And... Here we go!
-
15:42 - 15:44Sweeeet!
-
15:44 - 15:46It's always amazing!
-
15:48 - 15:51Even I visited here so many times,
but I feel the same. -
15:51 - 15:53It is amazing!
-
15:53 - 15:58It is so detailed and cute as well.
-
15:58 - 16:00So, if you get the Power-Up Band,
-
16:00 - 16:03you can play those kind of mini game.
-
16:03 - 16:05And you can compete with the score.
-
16:05 - 16:08There are so many different
kinds of mini game. -
16:08 - 16:13So, if you're visiting here with kids,
it will be so much fun. -
16:13 - 16:17However, one thing you need
to remember for that... -
16:17 - 16:19Whenever you play the game,
you have to be in line. -
16:19 - 16:22So, it might take a longer time.
-
16:22 - 16:26But with the Power-Up Band, it's more fun.
-
16:27 - 16:29Haha, it's shaking
-
16:29 - 16:32So, let's go to the
Donkey Kong area first. -
16:32 - 16:34Entrance must be this way.
-
16:34 - 16:38Oh my goodness, seems like people
are going for the wrong way. -
16:38 - 16:40This is the correct way.
-
16:40 - 16:42The entrance must be over there.
-
16:42 - 16:45Haha, Kinopio. Toad there.
-
16:45 - 16:48So, must be this is the way to go.
-
16:49 - 16:51Oooh!
-
16:51 - 16:52Wow!
-
16:52 - 16:53Yeah!
-
16:53 - 16:56That's the new entrance! Sweet!
-
16:57 - 16:58Sweet. Finally, it's here!
-
16:58 - 17:01I've waited so long time.
-
17:03 - 17:04Lovin' it!
-
17:04 - 17:07All right, so let's keep walking.
-
17:07 - 17:09Let's go!
-
17:14 - 17:15Wow!
-
17:18 - 17:21Oh. My. Goodness!
-
17:21 - 17:23Amazing!
-
17:24 - 17:26Oh! Donkey Kong there!
-
17:27 - 17:28Sweet!
-
17:29 - 17:31Oh, yeah! That's the new ride!
-
17:31 - 17:35Haha, having drum party over there.
-
17:35 - 17:38And Donkey Kong foods.
-
17:38 - 17:40We can check it later.
-
17:40 - 17:42But first, let's go to the ride.
-
17:46 - 17:49So, let me see how long
is the waiting time. -
17:49 - 17:52So, waiting time is 160 minutes.
-
17:52 - 17:55And for single rider, 120 minutes.
-
17:55 - 17:59There is a stroller parking area
in Donkey Kong area, too. -
17:59 - 18:03My Express Pass is until 1:30 p.m. so...
-
18:03 - 18:05Let's go to the ride.
-
18:05 - 18:09Seems like so many people waiting
in the single rider line. -
18:09 - 18:12Probably, single rider waiting
time will be longer. -
18:12 - 18:16So, since it's the Express Pass,
we can skip the line. -
18:18 - 18:20Let's keep walking.
-
18:20 - 18:24Wait, seems like it's a long line
for the Express Pass, too. -
18:24 - 18:27I'm not sure how long we can
save time, so let's time it. -
18:29 - 18:32Well, from here, we still can't
see the place to ride on. -
18:32 - 18:36So, maybe it will take about
10 minutes. I don't know. -
18:36 - 18:41So, for the regular line, probably,
you need to go all the way down. -
18:41 - 18:45Single rider seems like it goes
the same line though. -
18:47 - 18:50And seems like they will recheck
the ticket over here. -
18:50 - 18:52All right, let's go.
-
18:52 - 18:55There is a holder for the umbrella
-
18:58 - 19:00[CHARACTER SPEAKING IN JAPANESE]
-
19:02 - 19:05So, seems like that's the
entrance for the ride. -
19:05 - 19:07Until here, it took about 13 minutes.
-
19:07 - 19:11So, I guess it will take about
15 minutes total. -
19:12 - 19:14Oh, yeah! It's almost there.
-
19:14 - 19:16I'm excited!
-
19:16 - 19:18So unfortunately, I can't film from here.
-
19:18 - 19:20So, see you guys soon!
-
19:21 - 19:24Oh my goodness, that was amazing!
-
19:24 - 19:26And I get wet, too!
-
19:26 - 19:27But... It was amazing!
-
19:27 - 19:29Let's go check the picture!
-
19:30 - 19:33So, they are selling the
picture over there. -
19:33 - 19:36Oh, yeah, me over there. Wait...
-
19:36 - 19:37That's different.
-
19:37 - 19:38Where am I?
-
19:39 - 19:43Maybe I was preparing the cam
and came out kind of late. -
19:43 - 19:45So, there was no my picture.
-
19:47 - 19:48That's okay.
-
19:48 - 19:51So, speaking of the coaster,
that was a nice ride. -
19:51 - 19:53It was very unique.
-
19:53 - 19:55Seems like there is a course under you.
-
19:55 - 19:58But actually, coaster's ring is hidden.
-
19:58 - 20:02So, you feel like sometimes it's jumping
or sometimes it's floating. -
20:02 - 20:03It was amazing!
-
20:03 - 20:05Speaking of the scary level,
-
20:05 - 20:07it was not like the Hollywood Dream.
-
20:07 - 20:09It's more like, you know, fun ride.
-
20:09 - 20:11So, even you don't like
the roller coaster, -
20:11 - 20:13probably, you can enjoy that.
-
20:13 - 20:16I always love trying the new ride.
-
20:16 - 20:20And I'm so happy, finally! I could
try the Donkey Kong ride. -
20:20 - 20:21Yes! Sweet!
-
20:21 - 20:24That's the place you can take
a photo with Donkey Kong. -
20:24 - 20:28But seems like line is closed,
and we can't be in line. -
20:28 - 20:30Maybe next time then.
-
20:30 - 20:31It's okay.
-
20:31 - 20:35Instead of Donkey Kong, let's be
in line for the Wild Dog. -
20:35 - 20:37There's a line for the hot dog.
-
20:37 - 20:40It takes about 15 to 20 minutes.
-
20:40 - 20:42Well, I thought it's a fake plant.
-
20:42 - 20:45But seems like they place the real tree.
-
20:48 - 20:49Sweet!
-
20:50 - 20:52Seems like Donkey Kong is having fun.
-
20:52 - 20:57But there's no place to eat,
so let's go outside first. -
20:57 - 21:00Oh, look at that rainbow chair.
Seems like useful. -
21:00 - 21:03Maybe we can't find a place
to eat over here. -
21:04 - 21:07So, let's go back to the
Mario World first. -
21:07 - 21:10Haha, maybe it will be the same.
-
21:10 - 21:12Yep, people are everywhere.
-
21:12 - 21:15So, it's really hard to
find a place to eat. -
21:15 - 21:18Once we get out from the Nintendo World,
we can't come back here. -
21:18 - 21:22So, it is really hard to
find a place to eat. -
21:22 - 21:25It's okay. Let's eat at the corner.
-
21:25 - 21:273, 2, 1...
-
21:27 - 21:30Ta-daaa!
-
21:30 - 21:31Open!
-
21:31 - 21:33Haha, sweet!
-
21:33 - 21:34That's a cute hot dog.
-
21:34 - 21:37Price is 1,300 Japanese yen.
-
21:37 - 21:41Haha, it's so cute, but it's
super hard to eat though. -
21:41 - 21:42Anyways...
-
21:50 - 21:51Mmm!
-
21:53 - 21:56There's a big sausage here,
and it's pretty juicy. -
21:56 - 21:59Perfectly matches with salsa chips.
-
22:02 - 22:04As I explained in the beginning...
-
22:04 - 22:08Recently, USJ really work hard
-
22:08 - 22:12for making the nice, good quality food
with reasonable price. -
22:12 - 22:16So, I always enjoy the food
whenever I visit USJ. -
22:21 - 22:24So, let's go back to the
Donkey Kong area again. -
22:24 - 22:27I'm wondering if we can take a
photo with Donkey Kong now. -
22:27 - 22:31Well, I've been waiting here to
take a photo with Donkey Kong. -
22:31 - 22:35However, they randomly start
making a line. -
22:35 - 22:37And then, now, it's cut out.
-
22:37 - 22:41So, we gotta wait until the next time
when they open the line. -
22:41 - 22:43But they are telling us that
-
22:43 - 22:47we are not sure that when will
be start making the line. -
22:47 - 22:49So, if we want to take a photo
with Donkey Kong, -
22:49 - 22:51probably, we gotta wait here.
-
22:53 - 22:56After this, he will go to
take a break, so... -
22:56 - 22:58Maybe next time.
-
22:58 - 23:01STAFF: Yataaa! (Yay!)
[RAMBI ROARS] -
23:02 - 23:04They also have the ice cream, too.
-
23:04 - 23:06But maybe next time.
-
23:06 - 23:08They also have the small store.
-
23:08 - 23:11It's Donkey Kong hat. It's so cute.
-
23:11 - 23:13Price is 4,200 Japanese yen.
-
23:13 - 23:16And Diddy Kong.
-
23:16 - 23:18Also, the tissue cover and the towel.
-
23:18 - 23:20Oh my goodness, look at that.
-
23:20 - 23:24This is a Donkey Kong Tomica.
That's so cute! -
23:24 - 23:28How much is the price?
Price is 1,600 Japanese yen. -
23:28 - 23:32The tissue cover, 3,800 Japanese yen.
-
23:32 - 23:35And look at this Donkey Kong mug.
It's so cute. -
23:35 - 23:38Price is 3,000 Japanese yen.
-
23:38 - 23:41Hmm... Nice!
-
23:41 - 23:44Let's go to check the Mario area, too.
-
23:44 - 23:461-Up Factory.
-
23:46 - 23:49Basically, that's the souvenir shop.
-
23:49 - 23:52They have many Donkey Kong
souvenir here, too. -
23:52 - 23:56Haha, stack the Yoshi.
Sweet. So many colors. -
23:56 - 23:59And you can stack them like this.
-
24:00 - 24:04How much is the price?
It's 3,000 Japanese yen. -
24:04 - 24:05That's so cute.
-
24:05 - 24:08Oh my goodness, look at this Boo's
paakaa (hooded sweatshirt). -
24:08 - 24:09So cute!
-

24:11 - 24:13There's a hidden Teresa, too.
-
24:13 - 24:15Price is 7,300 Japanese yen.
-
24:16 - 24:17Nice!
-
24:17 - 24:18That's so cute paakaa.
-
24:18 - 24:22Oh my goodness, look at this mug of Boo.
-
24:22 - 24:24That's so cute!
-
24:24 - 24:27Price is 2,100 Japanese yen.
-
24:27 - 24:29I love this!
-
24:29 - 24:32Haha, Donkey Kong T-shirts. That's cute.
-
24:32 - 24:37And also, they have the
Donkey Kong assorted snacks. -
24:37 - 24:39Price is 2,800 Japanese yen.
-
24:39 - 24:42The Express Pass comes with the
2,000 Japanese yen voucher. -
24:42 - 24:47So, I'm thinking which one I should get.
Hmm. Let me see. -
24:47 - 24:50This Tomica is so cute.
-
24:50 - 24:53This Super Mario recycle
bag is so cute, too. -
24:53 - 24:57There is a small bag.
Price is 3,200 Japanese yen. -
24:57 - 25:01Wow, this Yoshi's memo stand,
it's also cute, too. -
25:01 - 25:04Price is 1,800 Japanese yen.
-
25:04 - 25:05Huh...
-
25:05 - 25:07Yes, already, I have decided.
-
25:07 - 25:10Please take a guess what I will get.
-
25:10 - 25:13The answer is... Boo's mug!
-
25:13 - 25:16All right, sweet! We got it!
-
25:16 - 25:18One thing you have to be careful is that
-
25:18 - 25:20the coupon comes with the Express Pass.
-
25:20 - 25:26This one, if you didn't buy up to
2,200 Japanese yen, you can't use it. -
25:26 - 25:31So, make sure to buy over 2,200 JPY
in order to use the coupon. -
25:31 - 25:35In my situation, the cup was
2,100 Japanese yen. -
25:35 - 25:39However, they had the shopping bag,
which is 20 Japanese yen. -
25:39 - 25:41So, I got four extra,
-
25:41 - 25:44And then, all together, it becomes
2,200 Japanese yen. -
25:44 - 25:47So, yeah. If you want to get
the mug with the coupon, -
25:47 - 25:51probably, just buy the shopping bag
would be the easiest way -
25:51 - 25:55to make it up to 2,200 Japanese yen. Yes.
-
25:55 - 25:57Oh, Super Mario there!
-
25:57 - 26:01Yoshi's Adventure, waiting time
become 50 minutes. -
26:01 - 26:02Let's go to check the Mario Kart.
-
26:02 - 26:05For Mario Kart, waiting time is
65 minutes. -
26:05 - 26:09Single rider is 50 minutes. Not bad, huh.
-
26:10 - 26:14After you enter the area, you can
stay here as long as you want. -
26:14 - 26:19So, probably in the nighttime, it will be
more and more crowded -
26:19 - 26:22because I don't think
people will go out easily. -
26:22 - 26:25All right, that was pretty fun!
-
26:25 - 26:27Let's go out!
-
26:29 - 26:32So, goodbye, Super Nintendo World!
-
26:32 - 26:33See you soon!

be stopped over here. -
26:40 - 26:43Still, it's super crowded over here.
-
26:43 - 26:45Let's go check the Jurassic Park area.

-
27:33 - 27:38Fried rice and two other dishes,
1,600 Japanese yen. -
27:38 - 27:41We are almost at the Minions area.
-
27:41 - 27:44Minion is very popular for students age.
-
27:44 - 27:49So, probably there are many
school trip students over here. -
27:49 - 27:53Oh, but seems like the
carnival is closing though. -
27:53 - 27:56Waiting time for the Freeze Bay,

be the Detective Pikachu. -
29:13 - 29:15I don't know.

29:17 - 29:19You know, we got the Super Nintendo World.
-
29:19 - 29:22So, why not for the Pokémon World, too?

32:06 - 32:09And also, the Donkey Kong souvenir.
-
32:09 - 32:13It's exactly the same one that
I've seen in the Nintendo World. -
32:13 - 32:17So, even if you can't enter
into the Nintendo World, -
32:17 - 32:20you can still buy the
Donkey Kong stuff here. -
32:20 - 32:22Let's go back to the Universal CityWalk.
-
32:22 - 32:25Oh my goodness, look at the sky!
-
32:25 - 32:27It's beautiful!
-
32:27 - 32:30Again, so if you don't have
the Annual Pass, -
32:30 - 32:33you can't reenter, so be careful.
-
32:33 - 32:36We came back to the Universal CityWalk.
-
32:36 - 32:38Let me introduce some restaurants.
-
32:38 - 32:42If you like the conveyer sushi
restaurant like Kura, -
32:42 - 32:44Sushiro will be the good option.
-
32:44 - 32:48It's good and cheap, but
waiting time is so long, -
32:48 - 32:50so you gotta be careful
since it's really popular. -
32:50 - 32:54There are so many restaurants
in the upstairs, too. -
32:57 - 33:00There is Hard Rock Cafe.
-
33:00 - 33:03And also, we have Red Lobster, too.
-
33:03 - 33:05The first restaurant, it's Ganko.
-
33:05 - 33:08It's a popular Japanese chain restaurant.
-
33:08 - 33:10They have so many different
kinds of Japanese [food]. -
33:10 - 33:12And the price is good, too.
-
33:12 - 33:18For example, this sushi with so many
other dish, 2,178 Japanese yen. -
33:18 - 33:23Kaarage bowl including miso soup,
1,078 Japanese yen. -
33:23 - 33:27And seafood bowl, 1,518 Japanese yen.
-
33:27 - 33:29We still have more and more.
-
33:29 - 33:31And it's Otoya.
-
33:31 - 33:35Recently, they have a different
branch in other country, too. -
33:35 - 33:37It's Japanese teishoku restaurant.
-
33:37 - 33:40And this is also my favorite
restaurant, too. -
33:40 - 33:43It's a tonkatsu restaurant, Inaba Wako.
-
33:43 - 33:46It's kind of the branch of Tonkatsu Wako.
-
33:46 - 33:50They have a good and cheap
tonkatsu restaurant. -
33:50 - 33:54For example, cheese menchi katsu,
deep fried shrimp, and the pork cutlet -
33:54 - 33:59comes with rice and miso soup,
1,848 Japanese yen. -
33:59 - 34:05Big pork cutlet with two deep fried
shrimp, 1,980 Japanese yen. -
34:05 - 34:07It comes with rice and miso soup, too.
-
34:07 - 34:11If you love tonkatsu, definitely,
Tonkatsu Wako, recommended. -
34:11 - 34:16Also, it's my favorite okonomiyaki
restaurant, Fugetsu. -
34:16 - 34:19They have a good and cheap okonomiyaki.
-
34:19 - 34:22You can only find this restaurant
in west part of Japan. -
34:22 - 34:26So, you can barely find
this restaurant in Tokyo. -
34:26 - 34:30If you come over here, try to
order the modanyaki, -
34:30 - 34:33which is the noodle on top
of the okonomiyaki. -
34:33 - 34:35Basically, it's a Hiroshima style.
-
34:35 - 34:37But you know, I was born
and raised in Osaka. -
34:37 - 34:39But I love that!
-
34:40 - 34:42Yeah, I love Osaka style okonomiyaki.
-
34:42 - 34:44But at the same time,
-
34:44 - 34:48also, I love their Hiroshima style
okonomiyaki, the noodle on top. -
34:48 - 34:50So, don't forget to add the noodle on top.
-
34:50 - 34:52It calls modanyaki.
-
34:52 - 34:55We have more restaurant
in the downstair, too. -
34:55 - 34:58In downstairs, there is a Takopa.
-
34:58 - 35:02You can try so many different
kinds of takoyaki over here. -
35:02 - 35:07For example, this Juhachiban, always
there is a long line in Dotonbori. -
35:07 - 35:09Usually, there is not that long line.
-
35:09 - 35:13So, if you want to try takoyaki,
maybe you can come over here. -
35:13 - 35:15There is a "Taste Test Zone."
-
35:15 - 35:18So, if you come by the group,
-
35:18 - 35:20maybe you can order the
different takoyaki, -
35:20 - 35:24and you can check the difference
between each takoyaki store. -
35:24 - 35:25That would be fun.
-
35:25 - 35:29Also, here, we got the relatively
new restaurant -
35:29 - 35:32in Universal CityWalk, Bikkuri Donkey.
-
35:32 - 35:35It's my favorite hamburg steak restaurant.
-
35:35 - 35:39If you've never tried hamburg steak,
definitely, I recommend. -
35:39 - 35:42For example, this one, price is
1,630 Japanese yen. -
35:42 - 35:46It comes with ice cream, and
coffee, with miso soup. -
35:46 - 35:47It's a good deal.
-
35:47 - 35:51Also, if you want to save money,
there is a Saizeriya, -
35:51 - 35:55which is a good and cheap
Japanese Italian food. -
35:55 - 35:57You can eat the pizza with
400 Japanese yen. -
35:57 - 36:01And doria with 300 Japanese yen.
-
36:01 - 36:03Wine starting from 100 Japanese yen.
-
36:03 - 36:07And they have so many different
kinds of appetizers, too. -
36:07 - 36:10They have a hamburg steak
with 400 Japanese yen. -
36:10 - 36:14However, if it's your first time
to try hamburg steak, -
36:14 - 36:17I recommend you to go to
Bikkuri Donkey though. -
36:17 - 36:20It's in the highest level
and at the corner. -
36:20 - 36:24So probably, if you don't know the
restaurant, you will miss this. -
36:24 - 36:28But yes, we have a Saizeriya
in Universal CityWalk. -
36:28 - 36:32So, if you want to save money,
you can just come over to Saizeriya. -
36:32 - 36:37By the way, if you love omurice,
this Pomunoki is recommended. -
36:37 - 36:40They have so many different
kinds of omurice. -
36:40 - 36:44This shrimp with buttercream omurice,
it's meccha oishii. -
36:44 - 36:47Price is 2,013 Japanese yen.
-
36:47 - 36:50There are just so many options
in Universal CityWalk. -
36:50 - 36:54So, if you visit USJ, just remember,
-
36:54 - 36:57there is an option to eat at
the Universal CityWalk, too. -
36:57 - 37:01And also, if you are staying around
the Universal City hotels, -
37:01 - 37:04you can always come over here to eat.
-
37:04 - 37:08There are so many options, so
definitely, you will enjoy that. -
37:08 - 37:10All right, so hope everyone
enjoys the video! -
37:10 - 37:14Well, today, I couldn't try many
different kinds of rides. -
37:14 - 37:16But hopefully, I could show
you the atmosphere. -
37:16 - 37:20And also, I could show you the
new Donkey Kong area. -
37:20 - 37:22So, it's okay.
-
37:22 - 37:26After I go home, I will try to edit
the video as fast as possible -
37:26 - 37:28and try to publish it.
