So apparently that Shonen Jump themed...er, theme park, is adding a couple of new attractions, one of which is Dragon Ball related.
The park will now include a recreation of not only the Capsule Corporation laboratory from Dragon Ball
I'm kind of curious about what kind of stuff you'd
do at this rather than look around though. Maybe there are capsule/Dragon Radar/etc. themed items for sale there?

Wow! I'm all for recreating fictional locations in real life. Now if only there was a hot blue (or purple since this is tied to JUMP) haired lady living in there...

Perhaps it'll be an edutainment attraction. It would fit with the laboratory theme pretty well.

These japanese are so lucky when it comes to stuff like this.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

*saves money for a trip to Japan*
Anyone for a summer trip to Tokyo? At least there's KFC, McDees, Taco Bell, or any western fast food restaurant there in J-World. Why not bring that Shonen Jump attraction to North America for us to see?

I demand authenticity, kind sir. No wig wearing substitutes are acceptable for me.
