Also, here's what the expansion area looks like on the Tokyo Disneyland app's map:

Thanks for the info, however I know how the trackless rides work. I’ve ridden mystic manor and poohs hunny hunt.
My surprise is more the dispatch of 6 / 60p is a huge deal for a ride in general.
This does however mean the “show scenes” will be huge to accommodate the cups. And will maybe only have 4 or 5 “scenes”.
Three we know - outside garden, dining room and ballroom all of which will be a somewhat at length stop point before moving on.

Exciting times ahead for opening day and more footage and pics coming out.

Ratatouille doesn't hit 60 per dispatch (off the top of my head it's 15 for DLP) but I would suspect it has a similar hourly throughput given what this ride looks like overall because Ratatouille is very linear and dispatches are very regular.

10 riders per car, 60 people per dispatch is massive. I guess Disney agreed to do OLC’s request to increase capacity on its rides moving forward. Frozen and Tangled I would think will have large capacity boats.
