During Halloween 2015 to 2018, at Tokyo DisneySea, a program called "Villains Recruiters" was held. While some of Disney's biggest villains have starred in events such as, the Fantasmic fireworks show and The Villains World parade. His faithful henchmen were sent to recruit people in some areas of the park.
The American Waterfront was the stage where these characters performed their speeches and jokes. Their sole purpose was to recruit humans into the world of villains, they also contained similar traits to their respective bosses, the Disney villains.
Sadly the event called "World of Villains", came to an end after four years in 2018. Recruiters had to say goodbye, not without the promise that they would return in 666 years, to seek out those who decided to join the World of Villains, in the Tower of Horror.
During their onstage moment, none of the recruiters disappointed. Making the audience laugh a lot, they showed off their poses and made funny comments, entertaining everyone.
Initially, a dance game was performed, the Six Pose Dance, its duration was between 15 to 20 minutes and took place every hour on the American Waterfront. Alongside two hosts, six of the ten henchmen strolled through the area.
In the game, each recruiter displayed a "Signature Pose" that represented them, after the hosts would speak the name of one of the henchmen, along with the recruiters themselves the audience would imitate the pose they were shown.
Everything started to get chaotic and funny when hosts started saying random things, and recruiters got lost trying to imitate everything that was said. At the end of the game, a person from the audience was called to imitate the poses next to the henchmen and then asked whether or not they wanted to join the world of villains.
If the answer was "Yes" the recruiters would cheer up and shout for joy, then invite the person to go to the Tower of Horror in 666 Years, where they would eagerly await him. However, if the answer was "No", they would cry out in disappointment, and the disgruntled henchmen would take the person back to their place.
In 2016/2017 one more show was added, the Villains One Point Course. In this game, two of the recruiters walked around the park while playing a sort of "Rock-paper-scissors", but you had to match the pose the recruiter was doing - which was almost always their own pose.
Soon two guests would be selected and their outfits would be judged by the two new hosts, who would offer them points that would make him a worthy villain.
The hosts are the ones in charge of presenting the show and taking care of the recruiters. There are four of them, want to meet them?
The main presenter of Six Pose Dance. Apparently, he was also in charge of the recruiters, as they all addressed him in a formal way. Despite his similarities, he has no connection with Dr Facilier, from The Princess and the Frog.
With a rather laid-back personality, Mr V looked more like a father watching his kids make a mess he didn't need to clean up. Despite this, he was shown to be quite possessive of his assistant Mrs Scatter, whom he refused to acknowledge as a true villain.
As the show's human representative, she is constantly fawning over how beautiful and seductive the World of Villains is. Her goal is to one day join them.
In the early years she was clumsy and reckless, recruiters were always intimidating her, while Mr V controlled her. Then she became more confident, laughing with them as if they were equals and even standing up to her boss when they disagreed.
At the last show in 2018, Scatter secretly revealed to the audience the mark of a true villain, when everyone else was gone. That means she's formed a true villain, without Mr V and the recruiters knowing.
One Point Course presenter and self-proclaimed fashion diva of the World of Villains. Villa is quite and laid-back while hosting her show, constantly ignoring her assistant's screams.
Villa is elegant and mature, giving the audience fashion advice on how to improve their outfits. She is also shown to be quite motherly towards recruiters, giving them nicknames and treating them like children. Even though she has the appearance of a welcoming person, she takes the audience by surprise at the end of the show, where she demands payment for her services.
Mp or Polite, is Villa's assistant during the One Point Course. Despite being more organized than Scatter, he spends much of the show screaming about his boss.
When free from his chores, he is sneaky and playful. Mp gets along well with recruiters, who treat him like a personal assistant, however he doesn't seem to mind at all. But particularly, he gets along better with Dalmatia, who he usually promises to take a walk around the park after the show.
We close the first part with the hosts, soon the second will be posted with the male recruiters, finally the third with the female recruiters.
