Welcome to my happiest place on Osaka, Universal Studio Japan! I love theme park, I love Harry Potter, I love roller coaster, that's why I love USJ! It's been a dream until that day. to see Hogwarts in real life. Hufflepuff student go back to school. Tip : Don't forget to check out crowd calendar before going to USJ! I use these crowd calendar. In crowd calendar website, you can check the opening hour, crowd prediction and the weather forecast. I went to USJ on Thursday, to avoid crowd. There were some group school students, but the queue were not that bad, on my opinion. Right from the start, we rush to Hogwarts Area without a doubt. We spent most of our time here, ride both Harry Potter rides, explore Hogsmade shop by shop, drink Butterbeer (since it's spring, there are 2 choices; regular butterbeer and frozen butterbeer), and having lunch at Three Broomstick. What a full experience! If you want to take a gorgeous picture of Hogwarts Castle across the lake or having a great lunch with butterbeer (without long queue), go to the Three Broomstick. The lunch are nice, the view is amazing, it was a great time. But beware of the birds stealing your food. LOL. When we were taking picture, some birds come and stole the leftover. Of course we tried other rides; like Jaws, Jurassic Park, Minion, FF and tried some foods around USJ. Tips : to cut queue time and if you don't mind to be separated with your friend, don't forget to queue in Solo Rider Line, if it's available. Don't forget to see the time difference between regular and solo rider, because when we ride FF, we think the solo rider must be quicker than regular (even though it's only 10 minutes difference on board). But the fact was the regular still quicker, because solo rider was used to fill the gap of one person, for the group of 3 or 5 or 7 persons, for two persons ride. It's also applied to Flying Dinosaur Ride, which I didn't get to ride. When I visit USJ, the park closed early on 8 PM, which was a shame for us, because our time was cut short. We're decided to go back to Hogwarts to see Hogsmade on night time, and ride Forbidden Journey the last time, before left the park for good. There are no queue for the ride near closing time, which was good.
Good bye USJ!! Sure, I will be back!!
