Tomorrowland...it's definitely old school, having never been truly redesigned since its open. The Sci-Fi city that was designed by Eddie Sotto would have been built if DisneySea hadn't been green-lit instead.
Land transitions, large empty spaces, crowds and glass ceilings....ALL of these are symptomatic of the location. Tokyo gets snow, so they decided to provide a place for people to get shelter and still shop, dine, etc.
The large empty spaces were designed to be that way. Tokyo is one of the most crowded cities on earth, people are literally pushed into the subway trains daily, Disneyland was designed to be an escape from that, but even being 96% Japanese guests...small islands with a tiny fraction of the population of the U.S., they still get 13 to 15 million guests per year, at EACH park. So they are a victim of their own success, but both times I've been to the parks it hasn't been crowded and I was able to see almost every attraction I wanted to.
I'm not sure what staple rides Disneyland is missing, can you tell me which ones?
Tokyo Disneyland Park
- Tomorrowland is a complete mess
- Land transitions are non existant
- Fantasyland is in need of a huge update and makeover
- Large empty spaces and walkways
- Glass ceiling over the Bazaar can be seen from Adventureland and Tomorrowland and ruins the theme
- Crowded most of the year
- Bad layout, Critter Country is a complete dead end at Splash Mountain
- Missing several staple rides
- Fireworks are to the left of the castle not behind, same show shared by both parks, cheap
Tokyo DisneySea
- Lacking rides for such a big park
