We went to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter when we were in Osaka, Japan. Here's how freaking magical and perfect and amazing and breathtaking and great this place is. AHH I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
go to JK Rowling's page and do the test to find out your house. I am in Slytherin :(. I didn't like the answer at first, but after reading the description I understood why I ended up there, I am in the correct house (sight)
Halophila Ovalis That probably explains why when I'm having a bad day I go back and watch that video. I'm a Slytherin through and through. Well, according to Pottermore anyway lol.
HUFFLEPUFF PRIDE! No way is Simon Slytherin.... Martina, does he torment you and throw ice at you like Hugh does to me? No, he makes you coffee and does all the housework... JOIN ME IN HUFFLEPUFF SIMON!
Oh, if I had that wand, I'd say "Lumos" all the time. Is my friend visiting and looking for the bathroom in the middle of the night? "Lumos!" Is that same friend trying to find their way back? "Lumos!" Is that friend now quietly tucked back into bed and just wants to sleep? "Lumos!"
TheFighterfemme right I was thinking of that when they were fighting about and really I was surprised when I did it cause I thought I was a hufflepuff but the Web site said I was a slytherin and I did it twice and the same results were slytherin haha
Mari Mendez Pottermore sorts with demand though so that the houses are evenly populated. I've done all the imaginable tests online and am a Ravenclaw, yet in Pottermore I got Slytherin.
I went to the one in orlando (which looks pretty much identical to the osaka one) and it was AMAZING!!!! I soooo wanna go again and try the dragon challenge roller coaster!! and I bought a chocolate frog and there was a dumbledore wizard card in it!!!!!
***** RIght??! I didn't even know how to explain it in the blog post! It was just unreal and I even got nausea from flying on the broom!!! HAHAHAH so real!
Eat Your Kimchi Yes! One has to experience it to truly understand how great it was!! Since you guys are such huge Potterheads, you should definitely definitely check out the one at Orlando. Hogsmeade pretty much looks identical (layout and all) but Diagon Alley will BLOOOOW YOUR MIND (The Gringotts ride was....I'll leave it up to you guys to decide should y'all go there!). The details and intricacies of every single thing. Ugh. Basically, my inner fangirl was so satisfied. I spent approx USD$400 for a 3-days-express pass but it was so worth it!
The one in Orlando is amazing!! I go to school in Orlando so I've been to the parks multiple times. Diagon Alley makes me want to cry with joy every time I see it.
Dude I know due to space constraints they only go for a small section of the Harry Potter world (Hogsmeade and/or Diagon Alley) but imagine building the actual fucking castle and show all the classrooms and iconic moments of the story, it'd be GIGANTIC and SWEET as hell
***** By the way, it's a ride, so you can only see the stuff from the carts right? Because in my fantasy I was hoping it'd be something along the lines like this video, where you can actually walk around and take your time. Also actually make a fucking castle, that'd be ENORMOUS and totally insane :D
This is too awesome!! :'D And i think Martina should be in Ravenclaw since she is like super smart and is like a Sherlock Holmes of surprises. And..... yeah Simon you are a Hufflepuff. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD :D Cedric Diggory was from Hufflepuff and he's a hero! :'D
And I don't know why there is so much hate on Hufflepuff xD It's the house for the hard-working and loyal - really good qualities! But I agree that Simon would fit there ;)
Maybe that's the thing? ;) Looks can be decieving, but behind that adorable fluff lies an omnivore that will do anything to protect their own.. plus, Cedric Diggory! xD
martina is clearly griffindor because lets be honest who is more courageous and badass than martina??? like no one. I'm serious, no one. and simon is clearly hufflepuff cause he's a megaaaaaaaaa sweetheart with a giant heart of gold.
***** It also depends on where you live, though. In my research it seems that a place like Nara would be a lot less expensive in certain aspects (ie: raw ingredients and transportation) than it would in other places. This is just an example, though...I'm trying to look into it more since I want to go there with a ESL program. Since some let you choose a city from a list I'm trying to figure out the cheapest ones, because they give you the same stipend regardless where you go >.>"
Silentgrace11 is actually just like LA California or any other big city, as you move out away from major cities the prices drop dramatically. With in the city is as equal as living in LA or Las Vegas Nevada. If you go and decide to live most ESL programs through the schools provide housing or will at the very least find you accommodations. Truth is as with any where your income will define your circumstances if you will struggle and it will FEEL expensive, or need to upper will make it feel comfortable.
I'm going down to Orlando, Florida with the family for spring break, and I can only hope and pray my parents decide to take us to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. My life would be complete!!
Using this description, Hufflepuff is the most inclusive among the four houses; valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members. The emblematic animal is a badger, and yellow and black are its colours. I am going to have to say that Simon is more Hufflepuff. I recall a certain cupcake getting thrown against a wall after a certain somebody lost a game.
Well there really shouldn't be any differences because then it wouldn't give the feel of Harry Potter. So I expected it to be very similar looking in appearance, both are great!
Gha. This looks so cool. I've been to the one in Orlando a TON of times - but haven't been to the Osaka one yet :/ I'm totally going to take my husband in the summer~
Literally, just got back from Universal Studios to find this video in my subscriptions. This is identical to the one in Orlando. Now you have to see Diagon Alley, I cried it was so incredible.
I was there for the first time in May this year and I almost started crying of happiness. We were super lucky though because there was almost no people when we came, a bit more crowded later in the day but waaay less than you guys. I'm a proud Hufflepuff! And you two would also be, because helloooo, entrance with the kitchen.. You guys would always sneak out in the middle of the night to get a snack from the house elves... And I would propably join.
They were normally comfy flat coverse shoes buuuuut I only had them for like two days because my shoes fell apart in Japan. So I had to break them in...I broke them in alright WITH BLOOOOODDD MAGICCC!
Eat Your Kimchi ohh that sucks ;3; I'll cast a healing spell: Episkey - spell to treat mild to moderate injuries including split lips and broken noses. I hope your feet will get better soon~~!
Tinka van den Hazel More like "Wingardium Heal-my-toes-a!..." ;) Good job there, Martina (Eat Your Kimchi ) there, btw... I probably laughed more than I should've there! Impressed by all that HP background knowledges, though... 9:16 Can't believe I almost missed that little clip of gold at the end... XD Really sorry about your toes-a's, though, Martina! DDD:
I went here last year on a school trip to Japan and this was one of my favourite places in the entire trip! Everything was absolutely amazing, from the butterbeer (I had a cold butterbeer, but one of my friends said the hot one tasted like a caramel latte) to the souvenirs. Kind of regret not getting a quill... :( I'm planning on returning to Japan next year after I finish high school, though, so I'm looking forward to visiting again! :D
Whats wrong with being a hufflepuff? I'm definitely a hufflepuff. Gryffindors are mostly competive jock types, slverian's an elities, and as much as I value intellectualism (Ravenclaw) I dont think it is the primary crieta upon which everyone should be judged. The hufflepuff are about equality, they give everyone a chance. I can get behind that.
Not to mention it's also JK Rowling's favorite house!! Out of all the houses I wish I was in Hufflepuff (I'm ravenclaw), I feel they are the better version of gryffindor who can be totally pretentious. Oh well. Luna lovegood's my favorite character so it's all good
I'm a hufflepuff too! I find it weird that some people still think hufflepuffs are the "weakling" or "other" house. we are just as awesome (if not more so ;) ) than the other houses :)
undetestable1 I want to be in Hufflepuff, I thought I was a Slytherin because I can be pretty ambitious. I go to Pottermore and I got Ravenclaw. I love books I guess. Sometimes I want to learn for the sake of knowledge.
AHHH!! I live near the Orlando one, and the Hogsmeade one along with the newly added Diagon Alley portion are SPECTACULAR. Like you said, the attention to detail is just amazing - if you buy a wand and wave it in the right places, things in the windows move and dance! Even the short train ride from Hogsmeade to Diagon Alley through King's Cross is amazing with the way they've set it up (the windows are TV screens playing the scenery). Also, I'm not sure what the timed tickets you had mean; it seems like an Osaka only method. In the Orlando one, you just pay a whopping park ticket and enter and carouse around as you please (or pay a little more for a park hopper ticket to get access to both Harry Potter parks, as Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade are in two separate parks next to each other and you can't ride the train unless you have one). Butterbeer is only served frozen (slushie) or liquidy in Orlando, with the choice of foam/froth on top. Imo, the foam is the best part. AH can't wait to go back, the rides are amazing and even waiting in line itself is a magical experience!
True, there is no lake directly in front of Hogwarts, but the FL park takes into account that there are at least 2 other lake/ponds within the amusement park
You guys were so lucky. I really want to go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida and Japan. I can't wait for the park to open in Hollywood on April 7th. So excited. 😊
Ive been to the harry potter studio tours here in the UK and loved it.. but woah.. the one in japan is soooooo awesome... wishing for a harry potter theme park... XD cant wait to visit japan.
I also went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in January, except I went to the one in Orlando. It was literally the best and most perfect moment of my life. If I could, I would live there. There's another one opening up in California, and Cali is only a 5 hour drive from where I live, so I basically plan on buying a season pass and spending every weekend there for the rest of my life.
Oh my. Martina, your feet!!! Eeeee.......I feel the pain!! Never saw a bloody feet because of broken shoes before. I usually get sores at the back of my feet when wearing new shoes but never saw something like this before. Bet that was painful after washing your feet and/or the next morning.
I took a bath in my hotel room and silently screamed when my feet hit the hot water. GARHHHHBBABAGBRBRLELEL! And we had to take the subway and walk around the airport the very next day. Good thing I have a super high pain tolerance but Simon still very sweetly carried my Hello Kitty backpack for me all the way home. :D
Oh my golly goodness. You replied O.O I didn't know. It's almost been two weeks. WAAAHHH!!! Well, high pain tolerance or not, there would still be pain after taking a bath or walking after a long rest. That is so sweet of Simon! AWWWWW... feels. I hope it's healing well. Again, it's been almost two weeks since that video was uploaded.
Just got back from the Orlando HP World and lovedddddd it! And I have a tour in Japan in July with tickets to Universal so I'm super syched to go again but to the Japan HP World!
Martina is a lot like Luna Lovegood, eclectic and eccentric, according to her Draw My Life, but I would say Simon is more of a Gryffindor because of his athleticism and obsession with basketball.
I had the chance to do this when I went to Universal! But then a friend got sick and I was the only one willing to stick around and make sure she got better. All my other friends left and went without us. Darn me for being a good and caring person!!!!
OMGGG this is brings back so many memories!!! I was there in February as well on holiday with some friends on an off season day and it was PAAACKKEDD. However we weren't too disappointed cause we bought a 2 day Universal pass and went to HP world on the 2nd day and spent 10 HOURS THERE. As a hardcore potterhead it absolutely wasn't enough (but I spent like all my money there oops) WE'LL BE BACK FOR YOU SOON HARRY POTTER WORLD!!!!! GOOO GRYFFINDORR
You know, I was practically shaking with excitement and jealousy during this whole video. Every new part of HP world made me 'aaaaaah, I wanna go there', 'kyaaaa I wanna try that.' 'Noooo! why am I not there?!' I think I had palpitations with every new shot! How much is the entrance fee?! Seriously guys, I'm just so so so so so jealous! But thanks a lot for making a video of HP world. I love you for doing this!
This place looks amazing!! I remember the Universal Studios in Japan being really quite small, but this looks great!! You guys were so cute arguing about being hufflepuff/slytherin. Also amazed at martina's high pain tolerance!! What a trooper!! Omgg. But yes it's all worth it.
Selina Aguilar I know!! I was sorted in an unofficial quiz and I got Hufflepuff. I was expecting that or Ravenclaw because I felt like Gryffindor or Slytherin weren't the right ones for me.
When I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida, it was the most amazing experience of my life. It looks pretty similar to this one in Japan too! Hope I can go to Osaka one day and go here!
Eat Your Kimchi I live in Florida and I've been to the harry potter world in universal studios in Orlando. Not to long ago they opened up a new section call diagon Allie (sorry if I spelled it wrong) and it is truly amazing. Supposedly the harry potter world was suppose to be built in Disney, but the park didn't give J.K Rollen enough freedom to design or choose what was going to be displayed so she went to universal. BUT OMG IT IS TOTALLY AMAZING. THEY EVEN BUILT THE SAVE TRAIN FROM THE MOVIE AnD YOU CAN RIDE IT AND THEY HAVE RONALDS BROTHER'S TOY SHOP AND IT IS TOTALLY FABULOUS!!! PS the chocolate frogs are amazing!!! I hope you read this simon and martina, I love you channel you guys literally make my day, never stop doing videos!!! EYK FIGHTING!!!!
I live in Orlando, right near the WWoHP, and the second Harry Potter one they built, and I didn't even realize there was one in Japan! That's wonderful! It really does look almost the same as the one here in Orlando.
The Dragon's Scale Brew at the Orlando location is the best beer I've ever had. If you make your way there some day, definitely try it! I'm so glad you guys had fun!
I have a friend that performs in one of the shows here but I didn't see him :( Anyway glad you guys had fun! I'm not even a Harry Potter fan but I had fun there. The ride especially was awesome!
I went to the one in Orlando, Florida and it was awesome! i don't know if they have this in Osaka, but in Diagon Alley there's a huge dragon that sits on top of one of the buildings and it actually screeches and breathes fires. It's the coolest thing ever!
It is interesting to hear you guys describe the butterbeer. I had some when I was in Florida (which was years ago so they may have changed it up), and it was basically cream soda, with a butterscotch foam on top. It was still super sweet though.
I thought it was going to be so much better than the LA one, because Japan is so good at themed stuff. But, it looks identical! I'm less envious now, haha.
I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida and I'm surprised at how similar they are, even the layout is the same. I ate at the Three Broomsticks there with my family and there was also the outside area where you could see Hogwarts and it was the same angle, too! Universal Studios continues to amaze me.
Martina, every time you were filmed from behind between 3:40 - 4:05, you reminded me of Madame Olympe Maxime (Beauxbatons headmistress). Something about your gait and the coat together. :) Great video!
YASSSS I went to this park in Osaka in July JUST for Harry Potter World and it was awesome, ridiculously busy and we waited all day in the heat just to get to Harry Potter World so by the time we got there we were so tired and not bothered to wait in the millions of lines but it was amazing and the butter beer was delicious
I laughed so hard at how you guys managed to cover up the harry potter music in the background. as a fellow UA-camr, i know how much of a pain it is to avoid copyright strikes. your method is the best ive seen so far! ♥
I would love to go as well, this past year though I had my main dream by getting to do the Studio Tour in London and see the actual sets. Nothing like walking into the Great Hall and getting to see Dumbledore's office, I geeked out so much that I ran out of battery on my camera before I even made it half way through I ended up with over 500 pictures xD
To those three people that disliked this video: my father will hear about this.
lmao
Lol nice Malfoy reference
Eat Your Kimchi haha, amazing impersonation of Malfoy.
And you're trying to say that you're NOT a Slytherin? xD
lmao tooo funny
We went to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter when we were in Osaka, Japan. Here's how freaking magical and perfect and amazing and breathtaking and great this place is. AHH I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
go to JK Rowling's page and do the test to find out your house. I am in Slytherin :(. I didn't like the answer at first, but after reading the description I understood why I ended up there, I am in the correct house (sight)
I want to go there so bad
I wanna gooooooooooooooooooo
I live in Orlando Florida....I've never been to Universal Studios.....Now I feel like I'm ungrateful lol.
The one in the UK is great; my brother went and told me it felt as if he was on set!!! ^^
Oh Martina I think you are probably more of a Slytherin. I still remember when you threw Simons cupcake after he won a challenge.
MMMMM HMMM. Excellent point.
Lol which video was that?
***** WTF - Dokbokki Jenga
Halophila Ovalis That probably explains why when I'm having a bad day I go back and watch that video. I'm a Slytherin through and through. Well, according to Pottermore anyway lol.
Simon and Martina and the time Martina stole peonies from Subways garden in the middle of the night for her wedding bouquet...😂😂😂
The struggle on copyrighted music. A for effort.
Hahah thank you for acknowledging our struggle. It was real. We made our background music so awkwardly loud.
Hahaha i was thinking the same, all through the video! xD
Hahaha at 4:57 it is so funny :-D
Ten points for eat your kimchi!
HUFFLEPUFF PRIDE! No way is Simon Slytherin....
Martina, does he torment you and throw ice at you like Hugh does to me? No, he makes you coffee and does all the housework... JOIN ME IN HUFFLEPUFF SIMON!
MyKoreanHusband 😂😂😂
HUFFLEPUFF IS THE BEST!!
Oh, if I had that wand, I'd say "Lumos" all the time.
Is my friend visiting and looking for the bathroom in the middle of the night? "Lumos!"
Is that same friend trying to find their way back? "Lumos!"
Is that friend now quietly tucked back into bed and just wants to sleep? "Lumos!"
Simon and I do that ALL THE FREAKIN TIME but we also make up our own spells like "FARTICUS MAXIMUM".
Eat Your Kimchi
MAX time!
Eat Your Kimchi it's Maxima! XD the incantation to maximise a spell
Cleodel you mean "nox."
Mike Boland For a few seconds, yes, but mostly lumos. I don't let my guests sleep.
Woooow it looks so detailed there!! But them Japanese crowds...@_@
Personally I think you guys are both Hufflepuff :3
Badger Badger Badger Badger
Badger Badger Badger Badger
Badger Badger Badger Badger
MushROOM~ MUSHroom~
***** Badger Badger Badger Badger
Badger Badger Badger Badger
Badger Badger Badger Badger
MushROOM~ MUSHroom~
Eat Your Kimchi oh oh go onto pottermore to get sorted, see the official results and tell us!!! that would be so cool
Martina may be a Ravenclaw
TheFighterfemme right I was thinking of that when they were fighting about and really I was surprised when I did it cause I thought I was a hufflepuff but the Web site said I was a slytherin and I did it twice and the same results were slytherin haha
Mari Mendez Pottermore sorts with demand though so that the houses are evenly populated. I've done all the imaginable tests online and am a Ravenclaw, yet in Pottermore I got Slytherin.
I went to the one in orlando (which looks pretty much identical to the osaka one) and it was AMAZING!!!! I soooo wanna go again and try the dragon challenge roller coaster!! and I bought a chocolate frog and there was a dumbledore wizard card in it!!!!!
The Forbidden Journey ride was soooo freakin' awesome! It's nothing like anything I've ever sat on before!!!!
***** RIght??! I didn't even know how to explain it in the blog post! It was just unreal and I even got nausea from flying on the broom!!! HAHAHAH so real!
There's one in Orlando? I lived there briefly and had no idea!!
Eat Your Kimchi Yes! One has to experience it to truly understand how great it was!! Since you guys are such huge Potterheads, you should definitely definitely check out the one at Orlando. Hogsmeade pretty much looks identical (layout and all) but Diagon Alley will BLOOOOW YOUR MIND (The Gringotts ride was....I'll leave it up to you guys to decide should y'all go there!). The details and intricacies of every single thing. Ugh. Basically, my inner fangirl was so satisfied. I spent approx USD$400 for a 3-days-express pass but it was so worth it!
The one in Orlando is amazing!! I go to school in Orlando so I've been to the parks multiple times. Diagon Alley makes me want to cry with joy every time I see it.
6:14 It's Expecto *Patronum, not Patronus. Sorry I had to do it.
Dude I know due to space constraints they only go for a small section of the Harry Potter world (Hogsmeade and/or Diagon Alley) but imagine building the actual fucking castle and show all the classrooms and iconic moments of the story, it'd be GIGANTIC and SWEET as hell
I would so pay to see it. It would be it's own living attraction!
If they made such a thing I would probably go there and never come back . XD
***** Well, it's time to save some money for a trip to Orlando!!!
*****
By the way, it's a ride, so you can only see the stuff from the carts right? Because in my fantasy I was hoping it'd be something along the lines like this video, where you can actually walk around and take your time. Also actually make a fucking castle, that'd be ENORMOUS and totally insane :D
yakurimoe you actually walk through the classroom, Gryffindor common room, Dumbledore's office, etc. while going through the line
This is too awesome!! :'D
And i think Martina should be in Ravenclaw since she is like super smart and is like a Sherlock Holmes of surprises. And..... yeah Simon you are a Hufflepuff. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD :D Cedric Diggory was from Hufflepuff and he's a hero! :'D
And I don't know why there is so much hate on Hufflepuff xD It's the house for the hard-working and loyal - really good qualities! But I agree that Simon would fit there ;)
I totally agree with you :) What I dislike about Hufflepuff is the color (yellow) and well...a badger isn't as cool as a lion or an eagle ^^
Kira maybe not but they are definitely super tough and vicous if you mess with them lol.
Maybe that's the thing? ;) Looks can be decieving, but behind that adorable fluff lies an omnivore that will do anything to protect their own.. plus, Cedric Diggory! xD
Leonora Selin uh-huh! Cedric Diggory! (Y) :')
martina is clearly griffindor because lets be honest who is more courageous and badass than martina??? like no one. I'm serious, no one. and simon is clearly hufflepuff cause he's a megaaaaaaaaa sweetheart with a giant heart of gold.
Oh my god, I want to go to this now. brb getting on plane.
SEE YOU THERE!
Eat Your Kimchi Meet you in Honeydukes! We can buy ALL THE CANDY
Japan is freaking awesome.
Ambrosia Cunningham it's an amazing place to visit on a holiday. Living? Not so much.
Why not for living?
Yeah, why so?
***** It also depends on where you live, though.

It's not as different then the one in Orlando. I wanna go again it's really cool. ❤️
Can you imagine going here when its snowing that has to be amazing.
I'm going down to Orlando, Florida with the family for spring break, and I can only hope and pray my parents decide to take us to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. My life would be complete!!
Using this description,
Hufflepuff is the most inclusive among the four houses; valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than a particular aptitude in its members. The emblematic animal is a badger, and yellow and black are its colours.
I am going to have to say that Simon is more Hufflepuff. I recall a certain cupcake getting thrown against a wall after a certain somebody lost a game.
Wahhh I shed a few tears watching this! House sorting time: Simon is a Hufflepuff, Martina and Leigh are Ravenclaws and Soozee is a Slytherin! XD
I thought there would be a difference between this one and Orlando, but I can't really notice any.
The big difference is that Hogwarts is located on the Black Lake in Osaka, and apparently there is no Black Lake in Orlando. Can anyone confirm this?
I've been to the one in Orlando. I had the best time. Went on the ride twice that evening. This one looks similar but slightly more legit
Well, I meant differences in the appearance, not really the location lol.
Well there really shouldn't be any differences because then it wouldn't give the feel of Harry Potter. So
I expected it to be very similar looking in appearance, both are great!
Leighla Zee lol probably its actually cold enough that the fake snow is believable instead of warm and sunny 20-30 degrees celsius with fake snow lol
Martina is a Gryffindor, Simon is Ravenclaw, Spudgy is an Hufflepuff and Memers is a Slytherin!
Gha. This looks so cool. I've been to the one in Orlando a TON of times - but haven't been to the Osaka one yet :/
I'm totally going to take my husband in the summer~
Literally, just got back from Universal Studios to find this video in my subscriptions. This is identical to the one in Orlando. Now you have to see Diagon Alley, I cried it was so incredible.
Aw, come on, don't generalize us Slytherins as liars. Some of us are pretty decent and honest.
HOW DO I KNOW YOU'RE NOT LYING TO ME RIGHT NOW!!!! 0________0
Eat Your Kimchi Darn it! I guess you'll just have to take my word for it.
Its 2017 now.
**Spoiler**
Harry's son is a Slytherin.
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! OOOOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS HARRY POTTER + EATYOURKIMCHI+ JAPAN!!!!!!!!! THIS COMBO IS AMAZING!!!!!!
If you can make it to the universal in Florida, the parks are basically empty in September.
I was there for the first time in May this year and I almost started crying of happiness. We were super lucky though because there was almost no people when we came, a bit more crowded later in the day but waaay less than you guys. I'm a proud Hufflepuff! And you two would also be, because helloooo, entrance with the kitchen.. You guys would always sneak out in the middle of the night to get a snack from the house elves... And I would propably join.
RAVENCLAW WHERE YOU AT?!
HERE
been here back on october... one of the best memory I've ever had... want to visit here again
The two of you should go onto Pottermore and find out what houses you're in, and let us know!
This made video made me fangirl the whole time. Thanks for letting us see Hogwarts with you guys
Spudgy is the most Hufflepuff
He is really puffy. And he does tend to make many huffle sounds.
haha see he is perfect for hufflepuff.
Wow, amazing how the crowds were gone at night. That looked like an awesome trip!
ohhhh my... Martina, what kind of crappy shoes did you wear?? Q.Q it looks terribly painful :(
They were normally comfy flat coverse shoes buuuuut I only had them for like two days because my shoes fell apart in Japan. So I had to break them in...I broke them in alright WITH BLOOOOODDD MAGICCC!
Eat Your Kimchi ohh that sucks ;3; I'll cast a healing spell: Episkey - spell to treat mild to moderate injuries including split lips and broken noses.
I hope your feet will get better soon~~!
I did the exact same thing when I went to Italy last week . My legs still hurt
Everlot Stark
Whaaaa...? :I
Tinka van den Hazel More like "Wingardium Heal-my-toes-a!..." ;)
Good job there, Martina (Eat Your Kimchi ) there, btw... I probably laughed more than I should've there! Impressed by all that HP background knowledges, though...
9:16 Can't believe I almost missed that little clip of gold at the end... XD
Really sorry about your toes-a's, though, Martina! DDD:
Just finished binge watching the Harry Potter series, and then I remembered this video from years ago.
Need to have a Harry Potter movie marathon asap!
We went on a mega one before and after going here. We watched from Order of the Phoenix onward, and watched all of the bonus DVD content as well :D
Oh the memories!!!!! I went there when I was in Japan with my exchange student in October 2014!!!!!! Oh the memories!!!
simon has more of a durmstrang vibe i think
It's the manly beard isn't it?
I went here last year on a school trip to Japan and this was one of my favourite places in the entire trip! Everything was absolutely amazing, from the butterbeer (I had a cold butterbeer, but one of my friends said the hot one tasted like a caramel latte) to the souvenirs.

Whats wrong with being a hufflepuff? I'm definitely a hufflepuff.
Gryffindors are mostly competive jock types, slverian's an elities, and as much as I value intellectualism (Ravenclaw) I dont think it is the primary crieta upon which everyone should be judged.
The hufflepuff are about equality, they give everyone a chance. I can get behind that.
Yes! Kindness beats smarts, bravery and ambition any day of the week!
Not to mention it's also JK Rowling's favorite house!! Out of all the houses I wish I was in Hufflepuff (I'm ravenclaw), I feel they are the better version of gryffindor who can be totally pretentious. Oh well. Luna lovegood's my favorite character so it's all good
I guess this my answer to this because the main characters were Gryffindors, so a lot of people want to be Gryffindors
I'm a hufflepuff too! I find it weird that some people still think hufflepuffs are the "weakling" or "other" house. we are just as awesome (if not more so ;) ) than the other houses :)
undetestable1 I want to be in Hufflepuff, I thought I was a Slytherin because I can be pretty ambitious. I go to Pottermore and I got Ravenclaw. I love books I guess. Sometimes I want to learn for the sake of knowledge.

Like you said, the attention to detail is just amazing - if you buy a wand and wave it in the right places, things in the windows move and dance! Even the short train ride from Hogsmeade to Diagon Alley through King's Cross is amazing with the way they've set it up (the windows are TV screens playing the scenery).
Also, I'm not sure what the timed tickets you had mean; it seems like an Osaka only method. In the Orlando one, you just pay a whopping park ticket and enter and carouse around as you please (or pay a little more for a park hopper ticket to get access to both Harry Potter parks, as Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade are in two separate parks next to each other and you can't ride the train unless you have one).
Butterbeer is only served frozen (slushie) or liquidy in Orlando, with the choice of foam/froth on top. Imo, the foam is the best part.
AH can't wait to go back, the rides are amazing and even waiting in line itself is a magical experience!
I see nothing different from Orlando, FL O.O
Like everything, all the details are the same, even the location of the butterbeer stand in the village
Except supposedly this one has the lake, which the one in Orlando doesn't, I think...
True, there is no lake directly in front of Hogwarts, but the FL park takes into account that there are at least 2 other lake/ponds within the amusement park
Eat Your Kimchi Was there a Diagon Alley in Japan as well?
You guys were so lucky. I really want to go to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida and Japan. I can't wait for the park to open in Hollywood on April 7th. So excited. 😊
It's like Disneyland for adults.
Ive been to the harry potter studio tours here in the UK and loved it.. but woah.. the one in japan is soooooo awesome... wishing for a harry potter theme park... XD cant wait to visit japan.
how much you spend for stuffs and food inside the Harry potter?
@@dsolon311 wow thanks I was wondering this too. I'll definitely have to bring a whopping fistful of money whenever I go.
Your attempts at avoiding copyright made me laugh so hard! Love you guys!
In Pottermore website you can know which house you belong to. so give it a try. Martina looks more like a hufflepuff
I also went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in January, except I went to the one in Orlando. It was literally the best and most perfect moment of my life. If I could, I would live there. There's another one opening up in California, and Cali is only a 5 hour drive from where I live, so I basically plan on buying a season pass and spending every weekend there for the rest of my life.
Oh my. Martina, your feet!!! Eeeee.......I feel the pain!! Never saw a bloody feet because of broken shoes before. I usually get sores at the back of my feet when wearing new shoes but never saw something like this before. Bet that was painful after washing your feet and/or the next morning.
I took a bath in my hotel room and silently screamed when my feet hit the hot water. GARHHHHBBABAGBRBRLELEL! And we had to take the subway and walk around the airport the very next day. Good thing I have a super high pain tolerance but Simon still very sweetly carried my Hello Kitty backpack for me all the way home. :D
Oh my golly goodness. You replied O.O I didn't know. It's almost been two weeks. WAAAHHH!!!
Well, high pain tolerance or not, there would still be pain after taking a bath or walking after a long rest. That is so sweet of Simon! AWWWWW... feels.
I hope it's healing well. Again, it's been almost two weeks since that video was uploaded.
Just got back from the Orlando HP World and lovedddddd it! And I have a tour in Japan in July with tickets to Universal so I'm super syched to go again but to the Japan HP World!
Simon is Hufflepuff; Martina is Ravensclaw.
Martina is a lot like Luna Lovegood, eclectic and eccentric, according to her Draw My Life, but I would say Simon is more of a Gryffindor because of his athleticism and obsession with basketball.
I had the chance to do this when I went to Universal!
But then a friend got sick and I was the only one willing to stick around and make sure she got better. All my other friends left and went without us. Darn me for being a good and caring person!!!!
simon is a muggle.
You guys are family, when I see your faces it feels like coming home
Jelly beans for Amber >:D
OMGGG this is brings back so many memories!!! I was there in February as well on holiday with some friends on an off season day and it was PAAACKKEDD. However we weren't too disappointed cause we bought a 2 day Universal pass and went to HP world on the 2nd day and spent 10 HOURS THERE. As a hardcore potterhead it absolutely wasn't enough (but I spent like all my money there oops) WE'LL BE BACK FOR YOU SOON HARRY POTTER WORLD!!!!! GOOO GRYFFINDORR
My uncle went there and came back with a wand.... FOR MY LITTLE SISTER. I asked where's mine... he said adults shouldn't be playing with wands... :(
BS! Adults can play with wands. We have a wand so there!
Eat Your Kimchi That's what she said. ...sorry, I had to. :P
That's really sad. I have a bunch of them. And I'm 26.
You know, I was practically shaking with excitement and jealousy during this whole video. Every new part of HP world made me 'aaaaaah, I wanna go there', 'kyaaaa I wanna try that.' 'Noooo! why am I not there?!' I think I had palpitations with every new shot! How much is the entrance fee?! Seriously guys, I'm just so so so so so jealous! But thanks a lot for making a video of HP world. I love you for doing this!
Where's #SlytherinHouse?
This place looks amazing!! I remember the Universal Studios in Japan being really quite small, but this looks great!! You guys were so cute arguing about being hufflepuff/slytherin. Also amazed at martina's high pain tolerance!! What a trooper!! Omgg. But yes it's all worth it.
I think both of you are Hufflepuff but Martina could be a Ravenclaw as well.
Almost in tears lol sitting here so excited for you guys but crazy jelly as well!!
Why doesn't anyone wanna be Hufflepuff? D: We're great finders.
Selina Aguilar I know!! I was sorted in an unofficial quiz and I got Hufflepuff. I was expecting that or Ravenclaw because I felt like Gryffindor or Slytherin weren't the right ones for me.
I want to be a Hufflepuff, the other houses seem like they would be really dickish to deal with on a daily basis in real life.
Hufflepuffs are definitely the best.
You both are real Huffelpuff.
You two are amazing.
A lot of love from this Huffelpuff from the Netherlands.
hey y'all! thanks for the harry potter world porn
We're currently researching about this topic for a TL;DR since a lot of ppl have asked about it! :D
Eat Your Kimchi yay!! :D
Watch the movie "Man on High Heels" it's about a guy who wants to trans in Korea! Subs on myasiantv
Thanks for doing this video for those of us who may never get to go! Glad you had an awesome time :)
this isn't a W.A.N.K. , its a Japanese Exciting Recreational treK Of Fantastic Fun! or......J.E.R.K.O.F.F.
When I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida, it was the most amazing experience of my life. It looks pretty similar to this one in Japan too! Hope I can go to Osaka one day and go here!
Eat Your Kimchi I live in Florida and I've been to the harry potter world in universal studios in Orlando. Not to long ago they opened up a new section call diagon Allie (sorry if I spelled it wrong) and it is truly amazing. Supposedly the harry potter world was suppose to be built in Disney, but the park didn't give J.K Rollen enough freedom to design or choose what was going to be displayed so she went to universal. BUT OMG IT IS TOTALLY AMAZING. THEY EVEN BUILT THE SAVE TRAIN FROM THE MOVIE AnD YOU CAN RIDE IT AND THEY HAVE RONALDS BROTHER'S TOY SHOP AND IT IS TOTALLY FABULOUS!!!
PS the chocolate frogs are amazing!!!
I hope you read this simon and martina, I love you channel you guys literally make my day, never stop doing videos!!! EYK FIGHTING!!!!
I live in Orlando, right near the WWoHP, and the second Harry Potter one they built, and I didn't even realize there was one in Japan! That's wonderful! It really does look almost the same as the one here in Orlando.
This looks like so much fun! Glad y'all had an awesome time! :)
Lol Simon, "My turn!!" right after Martina drinks some butter beer.
I went to the one in Florida a few years ago. Pure happiness.
Lol I loved the random background music used while avoiding the copyrighted HP music. Smooth....
The Dragon's Scale Brew at the Orlando location is the best beer I've ever had. If you make your way there some day, definitely try it! I'm so glad you guys had fun!
I'm so excited... I'm coming here this June
I have a friend that performs in one of the shows here but I didn't see him :(
Anyway glad you guys had fun! I'm not even a Harry Potter fan but I had fun there. The ride especially was awesome!
You can tell how fascinated I am by this in the fact that I'm not checking out the guys in the background
I went to the one in Orlando, Florida and it was awesome! i don't know if they have this in Osaka, but in Diagon Alley there's a huge dragon that sits on top of one of the buildings and it actually screeches and breathes fires. It's the coolest thing ever!
It is interesting to hear you guys describe the butterbeer. I had some when I was in Florida (which was years ago so they may have changed it up), and it was basically cream soda, with a butterscotch foam on top. It was still super sweet though.
I finally went there this January and it was AMAZINGGGG!!!!
I love your videos! My daughter and I are reading the books and watching the movies! We would love to go here one day!
I thought it was going to be so much better than the LA one, because Japan is so good at themed stuff. But, it looks identical! I'm less envious now, haha.
This is amazing. I soo loved it! Best WANK eveeeer!
I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida and I'm surprised at how similar they are, even the layout is the same. I ate at the Three Broomsticks there with my family and there was also the outside area where you could see Hogwarts and it was the same angle, too! Universal Studios continues to amaze me.
This is so similar to the one in Orlando!! I need to make the Osaka location happen!! So cool!
This video makes me SO HAPPY
Another place for my bucket list... So cool!
Martina, every time you were filmed from behind between 3:40 - 4:05, you reminded me of Madame Olympe Maxime (Beauxbatons headmistress). Something about your gait and the coat together. :) Great video!
YASSSS I went to this park in Osaka in July JUST for Harry Potter World and it was awesome, ridiculously busy and we waited all day in the heat just to get to Harry Potter World so by the time we got there we were so tired and not bothered to wait in the millions of lines but it was amazing and the butter beer was delicious
I went to the one in Florida. I had to share a butterbeer with someone bc it was so sweet! This makes me want to go back!
As a big potterhead i was silently crying through this whole video, because i always wanted to go there ever since i was a little kid... :3
I WENT THERE LAST MAY!! It's so magical!
Japan pure awesome!!!!!!
I Love JAPAN!!!!! Greting from Malaysia.
I laughed so hard at how you guys managed to cover up the harry potter music in the background.
as a fellow UA-camr, i know how much of a pain it is to avoid copyright strikes.
your method is the best ive seen so far! ♥
OOH There's also a Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Orlando, Florida too! I've always and still want to go there!
Man, I am SOOOO envious of your journeys in Japan, SO Envious!
I would love to go as well, this past year though I had my main dream by getting to do the Studio Tour in London and see the actual sets. Nothing like walking into the Great Hall and getting to see Dumbledore's office, I geeked out so much that I ran out of battery on my camera before I even made it half way through I ended up with over 500 pictures xD
