Tiana not in Tokyo Disney but Rapunzel is


I saw recent that Rapunzel has ben added to Tokyo Disney, but Tiana is ommited. I've even heard that she's been ommited in some brand line merchandise. Hmm... Now if they add another Princess Such as Merdia or Anna and exclude Tiana still, I think it's time to cry foul.

Why?

It's not Disney's fault people liked Tangled more. It is their fault their marketing strategy change worked, though.

Anything Depp can do, Crispin Glover does better.

She may not be seen in Tokyo...which is no surprise and its not even marketing. Just the culture over there on the ideal "look" and all, but she's seen everywhere else. She's on all the Disney Princess food-related items (soup, food and her dolls are selling very well...at least that is what a gentleman from Disney told me) I se her, Rapunzle and Merida on clothes as well so I don't think its that people like Tangled more. (mediocre and bad movies also do well thanks to marketing. Look at Sharknado) But the merchandise marketing and profits from PATF is also working. And with it being under Disney who will do anything for a buck, they're all in good hands.

I do hope the next Disney princess is Latina or Biracial though. Enough with the red and blondes. lol.

Uh, they usually have foreign face characters.
They could find someone black to play Tiana.

Ya blew it. Kapeesh?

There are plenty of other Princesses from Disney canon that are ommited both from the Disney Princess line as from merchandise.

Princess Eilonwy could cry foul since Day 1 of the Disney Princesses.

Isn't Rapunzel like, really popular in Japan? You can find a lot of her merch, but not Tiana
