Proof That Tokyo Disney is the Cutest Place Ever

If you didn't believe the evidence of my first two Tokyo Disney posts, here is some more proof.  I recently went to Mitsuwa, the closest Japanese supermarket to our house, with my brother and brother-in-law.  There is a Japanese bookstore right next door, so we looked around.  I mostly looked at the cute stationery and then some magazines because obviously I can't read the books.  Well my brother David found this AMAZING Japanese Disney fan magazine... called Disney Fan.  Genius.  It was shrink-wrapped, so I couldn't tell what was inside, but it came with a calendar... so obviously I bought it.

I'm sure some of you at home have the ability to read that.  More power to you!  I mean, you'd buy this too, amiright?  So inside is a lot more writing I can't understand (I got the gist of some of it from my brothers), but here are some pictures and what I can remember of the translations.

This one I didn't ask for a translation of... but I thought it was cute.  Some kind of chariot Mickey on parade at Tokyo Disney Sea.  I remember that large body of water by the entrance of the park where they have character parade floats.  They have all the main characters in Roman chariot racing outfits.  I wonder why they picked that theme...

Ok so I scanned some pages too (in addition to taking pictures).  Here is a Japanese celebrity explaining the new limited-time-only line of snacks available RIGHT NOW in Tokyo Disney!!  The featured item is a Mike Wazowski sponge cake made of green tea and whipped cream.  Oh my GOODNESS is that ever cute??

I would totally spend my hard-earned money on that!!  Maybe I'll try to recreate it myself!!

Above are some more snacks... My fave on this page is the souvenir cup full of TINY WAFFLES WHAT!!??  with tiny dipping sauce... Oh my god.  How do they do it.  Just when you thought Mickey waffles couldn't get any more awesome.  There's also a whole bunch of different warm drinks there.. one with a heart-shaped marshmallow with Mickey & Minnie kissing on it.  Then there's, well, a brownie.  Sorry guys, not really shocked over that one.

Moving on.. There's pages and pages of adorable things.  Of course I'd just sit down with you and show you the entire magazine if you were here, but you're not, so here's just some more snippets.  This page has a Duffy-shaped box of chocolates with Duffy- (and his girlfriend-) shaped chocolates inside (just their heads.  But still.  You don't see that in American Disneys).  Teapots are ALWAYS cute... Oh and don't mind that CHOCOLATE MIKE WAZOWSKI on the bottom left.  STOP, Tokyo Disney, just stop with all the cuteness.  I can't take it...

 

And just another spread of snacks available..  There's some fancy desserts with Peter Pan and Dumbo attached on what looks like edible paper..

Then there's these adorable cream puffs with pink mouse ear hats on them!!!  And a Donald..bread..thing but it's really awesome too!

And I totally want this teapot.  I don't care how impractical it looks.

Here's the back cover, advertising some deathly cute new line of toys available only in Japan I'm sure...

Ugh Disney, I cannot afford another trip to your Tokyo kingdoms for some time!  Stop teasing me!  I know I'm only asking for it... Anyway.  We'll see what the future brings ;)  In the meantime I am TOTALLY inspired to finally make those Disney cupcakes I'd been wanting to make since my last Disney trip!  Wish me luck!
