It's got long wait times but the shows were amazing. Be prepared to wait 2hrs for some rides. Generally 45mins wait for most attractions. Best to go early and stay late.

Only one seafood option available, not halal friendly. Could definitely have more halal options.

For some rides you need a timed ticket which you can get via the app. Make sure to get the App on app store.

Enjoying the experience here so much! Some rides are really worth the wait, especially for Harry Potter area. The rest are just ok (not something truly thrilling, in my opinion).

Would recommend you guys to bring hat, sunscreen and umbrella if needed. Some ride was not in English, hence foreigner like me find a bit hard to understand the story line. However, it's still enjoyable.

Absolutely gorgeous if you like theme parks. Please keep in mind that you need a separate "Area Entry Pass" for Nintendo World! If you failed to get it in advance (klook is very good for this), make sure to be there early and rush towards the on-site distribution. Generally wait times are long but with the Universal App, you can see an estimate on the rides, without going there only to be disappointed.
Wednesdays and Thursdays are the best days to visit, as schools often do excursions there on Mondays and Tuesdays!

Had an amazing day at Universal Studios Japan! We went during Halloween so it was crowded, but it was still so much fun! We did get express passes and they were definitely worth it, we were able to go on rides with only a 5-15 min wait (instead of 80+ min). The staff were all extremely friendly too. Food was meh, but the fact that it was pretty much all themed (and looking very cute) made up for it. Unforgettable experience!

Fun place for everyone. I have never seen an amusement park with friendlier staff than here. The rides are also very creative and exciting. Super Nintendo World is highly recommendable for fans. But expect long waiting times for the rides everywhere in the park (average 2 hours). The food is very delicious and the prices are acceptable, considering that it is an amusement park.

If you are looking for thrills, looks elsewhere. And whatever you do... Just don't go on a weekend or holiday. The wait for the only good rides is 1-2hrs.

When I went on a weekday it was much more enjoyable, but now that I've experienced the hell it is on a holiday, I can't rate it any higher.
The place is great for children and anyone who doesn't care for a good roller coaster.
If you are an adult looking to get on some exciting rides, I recommend FujiQ Highland.
For families with small children, this or Disney will do the trick.

A very nice theme park.
I understand that it is currently the only one in the world that has Nintendo world, but I admit that this world was less recommended by me... But Its looks amazing! (only one attraction that works and if you don't buy a special watch, you really have nothing to do there...).
I don't know if it's especially for Halloween, there is a whole complex of horror and as soon as the sun goes down, the park is filled with zombies. Really cool!!
I liked the dinosaur flight train the most.
In my opinion, there are quite a few attractions that don't work and it really sucks. If you arrive in the middle of the week, don't require the fast pass and use the single rider lane as much as possible (don't listen to the staff trying to show that the queues with waiting times are the same!)
