The Myaku Myaku statue welcomes you as you enter from the East Gate.



If you continue along the road from there and pass under the large roof, you will find Myakumyaku House on the left hand side of the park-like plaza.



The museum is open from 10:00 to 19:00, and several photo sessions are held during this time.



Myakumyaku welcomes you in various languages.



On display was a baton passed on by Morizo and Kikkoro, the official mascots of the 2005 Aichi Expo held in Aichi Prefecture.



There were also a number of stuffed toys on display, including some that are sold at the official store. Characters that have collaborated with Miyakumyaku, such as ICOCA's Iko-chan, Pompompurin, and Hello Kitty, were lined up in a row.



They have also collaborated with Gachapin & Mukku, MBS's Raiyonchan, ABC's Ebisu, and Yomiuri TV's Shinobee.



The Myakumyaku are paler in color, pink and light blue instead of red and blue, as well as other colorful Myakumyaku.



There was also a Myakumyaku with a floral pattern on its body.



Even monochrome Myakumyaku. What's great about it is that you can tell it's Myakumyaku no matter what color it is.



Myakumyaku, who agreed to be photographed, was very service-minded and posed one after another.



Myakumyaku raises one leg.



Myakumyaku looking sideways.



She turned around and made a big appeal.



On this visit, I was only able to see the moving Myakumyaku at the Myakumyaku House, but the Myakumyaku were alive and well all over the venue.

Myakumyaku decorates guide poles used for organizing queues, etc.



The Miyaku Myaku statue on the west side of the large roof is located near the 'GUNDAM NEXT FUTURE PAVILION' and the Gundam statue next to it.



In addition, the leaves looked like footprints, which suggests that the person had walked to this location.



The vehicle-shaped Miyakumyaku looks as if it is racing along the tactile paving blocks that represent the road. Inside is the '

Komyaku, ' which, like the Miyakumyaku, was created based on the official logo.



The komyaku transformed into the words 'EXPO 2025.'



Collaborative art between Myakumyaku Komyaku and artists can be found all over the venue.



'That's right.' 'Let's create a constant flow of excitement.'



Komyaku was making the word 'WELCOME' just inside the gate.



The komyaku also surrounded the lighting poles.



It looks like the Komyaku are holding hands.



Komyaku was also present in the personal mobility devices that were rented out for transportation around the venue.



The mobility speed is slightly slower than the walking speed of an adult male, so the eyes rotate in a more 'round and round' manner rather than 'round and round.'



There are also ornaments on the pillars supporting the large roof.



A komyaku that looks like it's trying to come out of the ground.



It has been said that playing the 'Kumamon Death Game' in Kumamoto would be extremely difficult , but it would probably be impossible to escape from Myakumyaku and Komyaku at the Osaka-Kansai Expo.
