【 #CM先行公開 】あなたは、ここで「進撃の巨人」の世界の恐怖や絶望までをも味わうことになる…。来るか、来ないか、自分で選べ。「進撃の巨人・ザ・リアル」、1/23スタート。 http://t.co/GvqbxT6Sdn #USJ https://t.co/cyTOihry9w

The "Attack on Titan The Real" collaboration recreates the world of Hajime Isayama's Attack on Titan manga and anime. The attraction will feature a full-size, 15-meter (about 49-foot) Eren Titan — the first of its kind in the world, according to the theme park — as well as a 14-meter (46-foot) female Titan. Visitor will witness the Titans locked in fierce combat from the perspective of Survey Corps members.
The attraction will also let you experience the traumatic scene with Eren's mother in the first episode. For its reenactment of the operation to capture the female Titan, the attraction uses Clone-oid, "the world's most advanced technique to recreate humans."
Universal Studios Japan will serve "Survey Corps' expeditionary rations" with bacon, a potato, black tea-flavored bread, and soup (for leaders) or just a potato, bread, and soup (general issue for regular soldiers). Also available are company black tea and colossal Titan mousse, complete with a blade.
Universal Studios will sell Survey Corps cloaks, 3D Maneuver Gear bracelets, and cellar key pendants.
