From anime expos and maker fairs to Tokyo-inspired streetwear meetups (after Mirumi's high-profile appearance on the GCDS runway), an interactive plush bag charm that physically turns its head draws instant curiosity in line. Preparing for a full convention day takes just three practical checks based on Yukai Engineering's documented specifications.

1. Three Convention-Floor Tips for Mirumi Owners
- How ambient crowd noise affects movement: Because Mirumi reacts to sounds and voices as well as head petting (US FAQ), a bustling expo floor will naturally trigger curious head turns. When someone asks to pet its head, remind them to allow a moment for the tuned response pause.
- Front-carry in dense artist-alley aisles: Mirumi's arms wrap around straps roughly 10–15 mm in diameter (US FAQ). In shoulder-to-shoulder aisles, wear your crossbody or tote toward your front so poster tubes do not bump the 155 g robot.
- Keep away from food-court spills: Per the US FAQ, the custom fur cover is non-removable and not washable. Unclip and rest it on a clean table if you need to top up via USB-C between panels. Compare Mirumi Robot Pink, Mirumi Robot Ivory, and Mirumi Robot Gray.
