| '''Tokyo Blur''' (referred to as '''Tokyo Blur 1''' from version 1.2.0 to 1.4.0) is a race course in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It is named after and inspired by [[Tokyo]], Japan and makes its debut in the tour in the city’s namesake tour, the [[Tokyo Tour]]. The course also appears as '''Tokyo Blur R''' (reverse), '''Tokyo Blur T''' (with ramps), and '''Tokyo Blur R/T''' (reverse and with ramps). The course's music is based on the theme of [[3DS Toad Circuit]] and [[3DS Mario Circuit]]. The course is a favorite of [[Toad|Toad (Pit Crew)]], [[Mario|Mario (Hakama)]], [[Toad|Toad (Party Time)]], [[Princess Daisy|Daisy (Yukata)]], [[Princess Peach|Peach (Happi)]], and [[Bowser Jr.|Bowser Jr. (Pirate)]].
| |
| | |
| This course has three additional versions, the most out of any city course alongside [[New York Minute]]: [[Tokyo Blur 2]], [[Tokyo Blur 3]], and [[Tokyo Blur 4]], introduced in the [[New Year's Tour]], [[Summer Festival Tour]], and [[Mario Tour]], respectively.

| ===Course layout===
| |
| In the standard layout, all of the racers start the course on the central span of the {{wp|Rainbow Bridge (Tokyo)|Rainbow Bridge}}. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the right through {{wp|Ginza}}, then makes a slight left before the {{wp|Wako (retailer)|Wako}} store. Not long after, the course makes a right U-turn near the {{wp|National Diet Building}} and the {{wp|Miraikan}}, then goes through a tunnel. As the {{wp|Tokyo Skytree}}, {{wp|Asahi Beer Hall}}, and {{wp|Tokyo Big Sight}} come into view, the road makes a wide right turn back onto Rainbow Bridge. {{wp|Fuji TV}}'s headquarters can be seen on the left.
| |
| | |
| ===Appearances===
| |
| This is the only course based on a real world city to have appeared in five different tours: the Tokyo Tour, the Summer Festival Tour, the 1st Anniversary Tour, the Mario vs. Peach Tour, and the 2nd Anniversary Tour. It also made a minor appearance on the [[Mario Tour]] as the third and final race on the [[Mario Tour#2-Player Challenge|2-Player Challenge]] mode.

| |
| Tokyo Blur makes its console debut in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' via the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. It is the first course of the [[Lucky Cat Cup]], which is part of the first wave of the DLC. In this game, each lap of Tokyo Blur is based on one of the different variations of the course in ''Mario Kart Tour''. The first lap is based on Tokyo Blur, the second lap is based on [[Tokyo Blur 2]], and the third lap is based on [[Tokyo Blur 3]], with each lap visiting the respective landmarks of those stages.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0cVtZQJW-Q</ref> Unlike [[Paris Promenade]], its hazards - [[Thwomps]] - have been retained. The minimap has been rotated 90 degrees compared to the equivalent minimaps for the variants in ''Tour''.
| |
| | |
| Tokyo Blur is one of three courses to originate from ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' to appear in the first wave of the DLC, alongside Paris Promenade and [[Ninja Hideaway]]. This is also one of four tracks in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' where players can hit the banner (causing it to spin), like [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart 8)|Mario Circuit]], {{classic-link|DS|Wario Stadium}} and {{classic-link|3DS|Neo Bowser City}}. Unlike the other courses mentioned, this is only possible during the final lap.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The presence of [[Noshi]]s in the R/T variant of this course references the {{wp|kaiju}}.<ref name="dinosaur"/>
| |
| *Before the Summer Festival Tour, no kart had Tokyo Blur R listed as a favorite course; instead, its appearances in the Mario Cup and Toadette Cup relied on the spotlight bonus to raise the [[Kabuki Dasher]] and the [[Quickshaw]], respectively, to the top tier. This was one of the only courses in the game to completely lack either drivers, karts, or gliders in the top tier by default (with the other being [[SNES Mario Circuit 1|SNES Mario Circuit 1R]]).
