It’s just going to keep increasing Expo site construction, board of directors to decide on additional costs of 5.2 to 6.2 billion yen Suwa Kazuhito 2024/9/11 18:00 s://www.asahi.com/sp/articles/ass9c2jpls9cplfa00ym.html.
I think it’s a good idea to have a theme park that introduces Japan while also serving food from around the world. Unlike the others, Kura Sushi is still operating. However, the whole Osaka Expo was such a mess that there’s nothing they can do about it.
It seems a bit futuristic to try to force a futuristic feel by making full use of conveyor belt sushi, which first started in 1958, at the 2025 World Expo.
