    First Drop Location Fun

    My first attempt to go to Fuji-Q Highland was cut short before we even got into the park. The following morning, on the day we were leaving, we woke up to a crystal clear sky and an immaculate view of Fuji-san. With only enough time to ride one ride at the park before catching our bus, I chose Fujiyama... and I have zero regrets. The panoramic turn after the first drop provided a once-in-a-lifetime view of Mt. Fuji was already enough to make this a 5 Star ride for me. Additionally I thought the ride was soo enjoyable and fun. It was a great ride to ride with my travel partner who is not used to riding rollercoasters. Each drop was smooth. I loved the pacing- the ride felt like it was never-ending but in the best way possible.

    Headbanging Disappointing! Discomfort

    A great way to ruin your day. Terrible "flow", The spins are jerky and unnatural. Not fun or enjoyable at all. The only thing I liked about the ride was the initial lift.. the expectation of a fun new ride before being disappointed. I'm just glad I rode it towards the end of my park day... because I needed an aspirin immediately.

    Nice surprise! Fun Smoothness Too short

    Went into this blind. Last ride of the day. Incredible loop (although I wish it wasn't the FIRST element you launch into.) Absolutely incredible surprise by the pause and backwards launch. I was lucky enough that the ride operators gave us an encore ride which just MADE my trip. Without it, I think the ride would have left way too much to be desired.. If there was just a little more track after the top hat, or anything extra length to the ride (or let it pass through the station after the top hat for one more "encore" (minus the backwards launch the second time around). It's just way too good of a ride to be this short, which is why I can't give it 5 stars.
