[Music] hey guys this rone from mctic Emissary we are here in Osaka Japan and we got something super special for you guys we’re visiting Universal Studios Japan and we’re going to check out Nintendo World and a bunch of awesome other tips that you’ll need to visit if you’re here so uh it’s going to be a crazy day let’s go all right so if you’re coming to Universal you definitely got to book your tickets online in advance cuz depending on what season you’re going they’re definitely going to sell out it gets so crowded here so we bought a normal ticket it wasn’t even that much maybe around 60 USD but we also got the express pass so we’re going to let you guys know if it’s actually worth getting or not be keep in mind that it’s pretty much even more uh cost than the average ticket so you’re definitely going to have to spend a lot of money but you get guaranteed time access to certain areas so it’s going to be pretty cool Universal Studios youran is one of the six universal theme parks across the world and the first one to be created outside of the United States it contains rides and franchises from worldwide Classics such as Harry Potter draws Super Nintendo and a few Japanese exclusives like Demon Slayer my hero Academia and Pokemon like I mentioned before you’ll want to purchase your tickets online and the express pass incl includes access to the areas such as Super Nintendo World and Harry Potter World which will give you a certain window to go and enter that area but keep in mind you won’t be able to re-enter once you leave so this is really important if you want to see something exclusive um like one of those two sections uh so make sure you definitely get that express pass so our first ride when we got to uh Universal is the kumu NOA so the demon Slayer ride and actually I think it’s the most popular one here and it’s like a roller coaster and like you get to wear this VR thing and it’s super cool um just make sure that your thing actually works before you leave and uh yeah the only bad thing is that the weight is like 200 minutes there’s a multitude of options for Express passes so I will have a link to all that in the description but basically some will include different rides so definitely pick and choose uh which rides you’ll want to go cuz that’s the one you’ll have uh quick access to You’ll also want to download the Universal Studios Japan app which will give you insights into how long the wait times for every ride is and uh even more information so definitely check it out [Music] right how are you digging your time with universal Japan I’m having a great time yeah I’m not going to lie the lines are crazy there’s so many people yeah I would recommend getting the express pass yeah we no it’s just not like worth staying in line for 3 hours yeah oh we did just go on the Jaws ride and we had the express pass for that so only 20 minutes yeah so it was only 20 minute weight not bad and it was a lot better than I was expecting so that’s super cool [Music] we’re in Nintendo World what do you think I love it here it’s so much fun just walking in you’re so overwhelmed yeah I’m not going to lie all the decorations and atmosphere and architecture is amazing there’s so many things to look at and it’s so super cool like I was iffy on Nintendo World before but oh man it is it’s amazing it’s a small area too it’s not that big and there’s a lot of people there’s a ton of people taking pictures there’s Peach and Mario and Toad and Luigi and there’s just a few rides that did go [Music] [Music] n [Music] n [Music] [Music] n [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] all right so we are in Super Nintendo World in kopio Cafe which is like the famous uh Super Mario like themed restaurant and it is pretty sick not going to lie decorations are Immaculate all the food looks so delicious and tasty and oh man I’m so excited to eat everything we had to like choose because everything’s presented so well so let’s see if we’re going to flavor town or not [Music] all right so we just got our food we got the Mario cheeseburger the Teriyaki Star Rice and a little Turon box it looks so freaking delicious I’m not going to lie like they look exactly how the pictures are which is so crazy anyway let’s dig inas [Music] the top of the year will make hurt to brush please don’t worry of the ear try to brush don’t the of the try to brush please don’t worry to of the ear will make you hurry br [Music] all right so it’s the end of our day in Universal Studios Japan what do you think it was amazing we have so much fun yeah honestly there were a ton of lines and everything’s kind of expensive but the rides themselves and the effects were freaking phenomenal especially I think everything was all worth it just for Nintendo World itself like just that area everything’s in Japanese so yeah do keep in mind that everything is in Japanese like for some things there were subtitles but for a lot of the rides they were just straight up Japanese so unless you know some Japanese you’re going to have a a hard time and struggle through but either way everything’s super cool the effects are awesome I think we went on like four rides Al together we did do a lot of waiting even though we had express pass but that’s just the name of the game you know that’s that’s how these uh theme parks roll so anyway hope you guys enjoyed like And subscribe because these are just the beginnings of our adventures to Japan so we got way more coming to you until then peace out now [Music]
