I wonder if Asha was originally supposed to be in this line up but the movie flopping (in the US at least) made Disney reconsider and add in Mirabel instead.I wonder if Asha from Wish could have been a better fit? Candidly haven't seen the movie yet but from what I gather, she might have been a fun addition to this lineup.
Weird its Mirabel and not one of the most famous characters to wish upon a star....... Gepetto / Pinocchio? lol
I would think so. My daughter knows nothing a Pinocchio and has no interest in it. Neither does my son. So I get they are catering to younger audiences. But if my daughter saw the blue fairy.... She wouldn't care where she came from or who she was.... She would be in awe over a beautiful fairy!I like your thinking! Blue Fairy and Fairy Godmother would have been a lot of fun for this, too!
Yes, I wonder what the thinking was behind the decision not to accept the dining plan? Isn't Victoria and Albert's currently the only Disney restaurant not to have the DDP?DDP not accepted will be a deal breaker for me. It is accepted at Tusker House, Chef Mickey's, Hollywood and Vine, and Crystal Palace, so I don't know why it would not be here.

Got it, thanks! Been a minute since I watched Encanto but I do remember this now.
She still feels like a really loose connection for this group of characters -- I think it's exciting that she's here and I appreciate that they're trying to add more heroines & heroes to the character dining mix versus just princesses and the fab five, just feel like the storylining here could have been stronger.

I wonder if they want to control demand when it first opens. People have been waiting for this restaurant to reopen for a couple of years. Maybe they’ll add it later, once initial surge subsides.Yes, I wonder what the thinking was behind the decision not to accept the dining plan?

Asha would have been a great fit! Too bad Wish isn't more popular. I'd love to see them keep Mirabel here but also include Asha. I happen to really like Wish - granted, not as much as Encanto, but I still very much enjoyed it.Got it, thanks! Been a minute since I watched Encanto but I do remember this now.

I agree. They're having a difficult time getting rid of the Wish merch in the gift shops. I bet it'll be shipped off to the outlets soon.Wish flopped harder than Neymar at the World Cup, I would not hold my breath for any more of it in the parks and resorts.
Same here.Couldn't wait for this to reopen. Loved the Tremaines and the antics of the step sisters at dinner. Lovely place to find Alice and Marry Poppins for breakfast. Think we will be passing on this with the new characters. Don't see the logic in removing the British characters from the Victorian British themed resort.
I have a picture of my then-10-month-old daughter with a bright red lipstick mark across her forehead, courtesy of Drizella. (She asked, first). Absolute delight!Anastasia, Drizella and Lady Tremaine at dinner were some of the most fun and unique character interactions you could get.
