Just came back from USJ today. Weather was brilliant compared to yesterday's drizzle the entire day in central Osaka.
Some comments:
1. Arrived at 1030am. Queued for 30mins to grab tics on site.
2. Oddly the rides w the longest queue times was the Minion (50mins), Evangelion (50mins). In fact there was no need for timed entry @ Harry Potter. there was practically no queue for its 'Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey' after 3pm. It stated 30mins wait but in reality took us less than 10mins including the time at the lockers. At Jurassic world, the Dino coaster (which I felt was the best thing in the park) was 40mins queue.
3. No control during the mascots photo taking. It was kinds messy. In fact just walk up to the mascot and say hi.
Have to admit, USJ puts our local USS to shame. It's way much better and the rides r much better.i loved all the Japs have localised rides like the 4D Attack of Titans show (queued 30mins) and the Evangelion. Despite it being in Japanese ... Was kick-ass fun.
