Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Apparently one of the biggest theme parks in Japan is Toshimaen. The north part of the park has various roller-coasters, one of which is emblazoned with (what I’m told is) the park’s name. The south part is a water park which is packed full of people.
There’s more info on the official park website (if you can read Japanese) and ground level shots on Theme Park Review.

Nice park.
Japanese one of their best things is space usage! This is very cool
Neat! But I like the Nagashima Spaland better:

lots of rollercoasters, including the “Steel Dragon 2000″, apparently the
worlds longest. Great shadow!
Tokyo Disney is also worth a look.
