Welcome to Tokyo Disney! Where dreams come true in Japanese.

This is where you can post and discuss all things related to the culture of Disney and how it uniquely relates to the culture of Japan. Everything from official announcements about the Tokyo Disney Resort parks to your personal photos of Fantasy Springs.

Rules:

You must follow all of the rules of your Lemmy instance and this Lemmy instance (lemmy.world).
Be polite and civil. Personal attacks and even just poking at people is the quickest way to get banned. Treat others like Mickey would... even if they're behaving like a Jafar.
Anything you post must be related to Disney and to Japan. If it lacks a connection to either, it might be removed.
Due to the nature of this community, posts/content/links in English or Japanese are allowed, although English is preferred. If you do post in Japanese, please try to offer an English translation. Posts and comments in any other language will be removed.
If you post someone else's content (text, links, images, videos, etc.), give proper attribution in your post. If you claim someone else's content or fail to properly credit the creator, it might be removed.
Avoid reposting the same content. Search the community first to be safe. If you repost something that is already here, it might be removed.
If you see something cool posted on another community that you think belongs here, please use the crossposting feature to properly credit the original poster and to link back to where it came from. Avoid making a separate post, even if the crosspost links to a community or instance you personally do not like. If you do not crosspost, it might be removed (especially in favor of a crossposted version).
Absolutely no NSFW or NSFL content. There will be no warnings.
This is not a marketplace community. If you want to sell or buy things, look for an appropriate community to do so. Posts or comments attempting to conduct a transaction will be removed.
This is not a place to self-promote. Apart from official Disney news, this community is not a blog for content creators, even if they do focus on Disney in Japan. If the same sources becomes disproportionally featured, those posts and comments might be removed.

If you're not sure about something, message a mod before posting.

Above: The billboard for Captain Eo, presented by JCB @ Tokyo Disneyland, just prior to the attraction's permanent closure.

After 14 years, Captain Eo reopened in Tomorrowland @ Tokyo Disneyland in 2010 and played until 2014 when it was replaced by Stitch's Encounter. Captain Eo originally ran in Tokyo Disneyland from 1987, replacing Magic Journeys, until 1996, when it was replaced by Honey, I Shrunk the Audience.

Unlike the American parks, the revival of Captain Eo wasn't billed as a "revival", rather it simply came back in its original form minus some of the special effects for which the hardware has since been removed from the theater.

Picture taken by me in 2013.

I vaguely remember getting some sort of air blown on my face during the performance. I didn't really understand why there was a Michael Jackson attraction, whether he was self-starring or a acting a character.
