This is part of USJ’s Universal Cool Japan 2023 initiative that features collaborations with three popular Japanese properties.
Universal Studios Japan Anime Collabs
This year, USJ has gotten a lot of hype from both Japanese and international fans with the opening of Super Nintendo World. Not only is this a big deal for being Nintendo’s first theme park attraction, but it was also the first area in USJ that’s based on a Japanese IP. Despite having mostly Western-themed attractions, USJ has collaborated with lots of Japanese franchises over the past years, including the likes of Godzilla and Attack on Titan, many of which featured 4-D experiences. The latest collaboration was with Jujutsu Kaisen, the hit anime series by MAPPA. As part of the collaboration, select areas of USJ were given Jujutsu Kaisen-themed makeovers while lots of exclusive collab merch were offered in shops. This collab also featured a 4-D experience that included new animation of an original story that sees Yuji and his friends attend an event in Osaka. USJ’s Hollywood Dream also got a JJK makeover, with the speakers playing the show’s first opening theme. While the upcoming Spy x Family event won’t come with a special roller coaster ride, it will have an interactive live show that promises a “real spy experience.” RELATED: Jujutsu Kaisen 4-D Experience Opens at Universal Studios
Spy x Family USJ Event
At the USJ x Spy x Family event, park guests will take on the role of rookie agents for WISE, and they must decipher a code that’s hidden in the park. Upon deciphering the code, guests will be allowed to participate in a special event. At the event, guests will get an immersive experience featuring Loid, Yor, and Anya Forger. Guests will then be given a chance to experience spy work with the Forger family. Aside from the live show, there aren’t a lot of details yet about the collab event. Though exclusive merch will likely be made available at USJ during the event dates. The Spy x Family event at Universal Studios Japan will be held from February 17 to July 2, 2023. Following this, special events featuring Detective Conan and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne will also be held at USJ. Discover more anime news and info by following us on Twitter @epicstreamanime.
