1. What Was "Shocking"? ── The Origin and Overview of the News

The spark was the official site listing prices such as "30,000 yen for drumsticks on August 1" and "13,000 yen for curtains on August 28," which media and SNS posts quickly picked up and spread. Tokyo Disney ResortTokyo Disney ResortX (formerly Twitter)X (formerly Twitter)


Particularly, the 30,000 yen drumsticks, framed as a "replica of the sticks Mickey Mouse actually uses in 'Big Band Beat,'" were still considered expensive by many fans. Tokyo Disney ResortMezzoMikiTokyo Disney Resort


On the other hand, items like the curtain related to the new Duffy & Friends story "Wishing Wings" (13,000 yen) also sparked polarized opinions, with some saying "it's expensive for a practical room item" and others arguing "it's reasonable for Disney-themed curtains."
