El sábado 22 de febrero de 2026, se celebró una ceremonia en el Parque Conmemorativo de la Expo '70 en Suita, prefectura de Osaka, para marcar la reubicación de dos estatuas de Myaku-Myaku, la mascota oficial de la Exposición Mundial de Osaka 2025. Las estatuas roja, blanca y azul habían recibido a los visitantes cerca de las puertas del recinto de la expo en la isla artificial de Yumeshima durante el evento de 184 días del 13 de abril al 13 de octubre de 2025. El evento contó con la presencia de unos 400 residentes locales seleccionados por sorteo entre más de 40.000 solicitantes. El gobernador de Osaka, Hirofumi Yoshimura, dijo en la ceremonia: «Parece que Myaku-Myaku y la Torre del Sol están conectadas por el (testigo de la) expo», destacando el vínculo entre las exposiciones de 1970 y 2025. Las estatuas girarán por la prefectura de Osaka a partir de junio y se espera que regresen eventualmente al lugar de la expo 2025. Esta reubicación simboliza la continuidad del legado de la expo en la región.
