This spring from 4th April to 2nd June, both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disneysea will be overrun with usapiyo and usatama, from open places like plazas to hidden nooks and crannies, making great photo spots for memorable holiday pictures.
If you’re wondering what Usapiyo and Usatama are, they are none other than the classic Easter combo of chicks and eggs! Usapiyo are pink-cheeked fluffy chicks with bunny ears while Usatama are pearly white Easter eggs topped with a pair of bunny ears too.
The story goes that Mickey and his friends were making Easter eggs when some of them came to life as usatama and made their grand escape, causing a bedlam in Disneyland!
Head down to Tokyo Disney Resort this season to revel in the spring mood alongside these cute usapiyo and usatama!
