There are events to celebrate Heijo-kyo 1300th anniversary.

A "Yuru-chara" for the events.
He doesn't have name yet.

Neato. Wish I could go... the last time I was in Japan, I missed all sorts of events for the 400th anniversary of the beginning of the Tokugawa shogunate. 'Course, I was living in Tokyo at the time, so I didn't really have any excuse other than that I wasn't aware of the events.

.. I guess I'm going to have to scrape together money for a Kansai tabi.

Where and when? I'll be traveling the kansai area from the 10th to the 23rd of march.

Oh, I'd love to meet up, but I'm not actually going to go out to Kansai. Are you going to be in Kanto at all?

Techinically I mean "where and when are these festivals/events, etc." since I'm going to be there. So if anyone who is in the know could let me know, I'd appreciate it. Won't be anywhere near Tokyo though.

Heijo-kyo is Nara prefecture so there must be some events in Nara.

From today's news,
the character
is extremely unpopular and more than 200 people demanding reconsideration.

That's okay -- they'll come up with something equally cute/revolting.
