I haven't been but I'm almost positive that both Tokyo DL and D Sea's attractions ect...are all in Japanese. In some attractions you can get head sets that have the narrations in english.

See TDL and TDS are both owned by a big Japanese Entertainment company...Disney only owns a small part of those two parks so I'm sure they made it a point to cator to mostly the Japanese guests. Unlike at DL PAris where you can find alot of signs and attractions in English. :)

Let me correct this statement by saying that it is not true. This snippet here is courtesy of my friend Joe. His website about The Tokyo Disney Resort is located at http://www.jtcent.com. I hope this helps.

"In English:

Encore! - (show - cast singing)

Hi,

If you're interested in having a look, I was last there in September and have videos running on my site. www.barrybedford.com

Most attractions are in Japanese but it's fairly easy to figure out what is going on.

20K is the new version of the ride. Forget WDW and DL's versions. The subs you ride in are running from an overhead rail (think Peter Pan - only on a grander scale).

Hope this helps,
BarryB.
