I'm not sure it will. USJ seem more into keeping 'classic' attractions and it is still incredibly popular.

I wish Hollywood has more room, all thanks to being in an actual studio.

#1 I believe it's a necessity (and therefore worthy expense) for new entertainment to be offered like this in Japan. They love their fresh entertainment offerings

#2 I could be wrong, but Orlando and Hollywood would have to buy/order/design costumes and such from the ground up, which could be an unapproved or deemed unnecessary expense

Just a thought

Hollywood technically has the costumes to pull it off, as they often have seasonal attires.

I know they usually have an event called Universal Cool Japan in which they use many popular Japanese IPs like One Piece, Attack on Titan, Godzilla, Monster Hunter and more in temporary overlays to attractions- like turning the Waterworld show into a One Piece stunt show for instance.

That could be what they mean.

In the early stages of planning my first trip to Japan. Obviously lots up in the air right now, but I thought I’d hammer out details of a potential trip for when we’re good to go.

My #1 reason for visiting Universal Japan is Jaws. I am ecstatic to get another ride or twelve around the lake. For planning purposes and to avoid catastrophe, does anyone know what time of year Jaws goes down for maintence? Any specific dates from the past would be helpful. Thanks!

Being the first to get Nintendo, and Flying Dinosaur (say what you will about the view, but a B&M flyer adds a lot of needed balance) help too.

According to the current USJ website it's due to go down for most of January 2021
www.usj.co.jp

ユニバーサル・スタジオ・ジャパン|USJ

異なる表情を持つさまざまなエリアは、感動がいっぱいの別世界。ハリウッドの超大作映画をテーマにした興奮のライドや人気キャラクターたちのショーなど、子どもから大人まで楽しめる、ワールドクラスのエンターテイメントを集めたテーマパーク。
www.usj.co.jp www.usj.co.jp

But looks like it has gone down in Feb/March before:

Universal Studios Japan Ride Closures 2025

A Universal Studios Japan Ride Closures calendar to ensure you don’t accidentally plan a trip on a day when an attraction or show is close

I'd say you are fine if you avoid Jan/Feb and early March.


and I'm not jealous at all... nope not jealous :bolt:

Does anyone here understand how the USJ express passes work. I understand that various passes get you certain rides, but the descriptions on the USJ website don't easily specify what rides are included in each pass.

From what I’ve been seeing, Express comes in groups of 4 or 7 with a “headliner” attraction. Meaning, you get the big headliner attraction - Flying Dino or Hollywood Dream Backdrop - with express access to other non-headliner attractions.

The closest thing I’ve seen to the American version of Express is their Royal Pass, which I’m considering getting if it guarantees timed entry and Express access to SNW. It’s essentially their VIP pass and costs around $400.

Rumor on the street via Screamscape--Jaws may be getting retired soon for the park's next major project.

It's going to be Pokemon. Guaranteed. The path next to SNW leads right to it.
