Brand-new caper for anime’s greatest thief is latest installment of Universal Cool Japan project.
How could you when the haunted room is filled with bloodstains, cobwebs, severed limbs, and a hidden switch that’ll whisk you into a nightmare world?
There’s more to theme parks in Japan than just Disney Resort and Universal Studios; there’s also ninjas, go-karts and looking through your legs.
More information about the original story of the attraction was released as well as photos of some sweet limited-edition merchandise only available at this event!
Theme park lets us know what kind of attraction it’ll be, when we can experience it, and what special Sailor Moon food we can look forward to.
Set to open this winter, the ride takes fans on an adventure through multiple worlds from the Final Fantasy video game franchise.
Theme park announces its first-ever tie-up with the pair of massively popular anime, video game franchises.
“Big” is looking to be the operative word for next year’s Japanese pop culture themed attractions.

In a bittersweet turn, we have finally arrived at the future full of anime and Harry Potter rides, which means there is no longer space for this much-loved classic attraction.
The first details have emerged about the budget and square-footage for the upcoming Nintendo-themed attraction space in USJ—and it’s much more significant than we anticipated.
