Hi, I'm Akane Maru, born and raised in Japan.
In this video, we will be eating around Universal Studios Japan.
We will introduce 12 kinds of food,
including classic foods and the newest food that people line up for.
There is also some non-food information,
so be sure to watch until the end.
Now, let's get started!
We've arrived at Universal City Station,
where Universal Studios Japan is located.
Before entering the park,
we will briefly introduce how to get to the park from Shin-Osaka Station,
where the bullet train passes through.
We will take a train from Platform 7 or 8 at Shin-Osaka Station to move to Osaka Station.
Once you arrive at Osaka Station,
take a train from Platform 1 to Nishikujo Station.
Once you arrive at Nishikujo Station,
take the train on Platform 3 on the opposite side of the platform
and get off at Universal City Station after two stops.
It takes about 30 minutes from Shin-Osaka Station to here.
If you follow the crowd at Nishikujo Station,
as most people are heading to Universal Studios,
it will be easy to arrive by taking the train.
Then we will head to the destination.
It takes about 5 minutes from the station.
Along the way,
there is a popular conveyor belt sushi restaurant called Sushiro.
Which also offers exclusive menu items that can only be found there.
After passing Sushiro,
the park entrance can be seen in front of you.
This is the Universal Studios Japan that we will introduce.
This is a very popular amusement park where about 37,000 people come per day.
If you purchase tickets in advance from the official website,
you can enter the park without making a line for the ticket counter.
Here are the prices.
By the way,
please note that once you enter the park,
you cannot re-enter.
You can enter by presenting either a ticket or a QR code on your smartphone.
There are many souvenir shops just beyond the entrance.
