Also, don't forget to eat Kansai style okonomiyaki. Visit a store called Don Quijote (pronounced Don Key-ho-teh,) buy an offensive T-Shirt that you can't read and wear it around (I have one that says Yakuza Boss on it, just pretend I can't read it, lol! Super taboo, but makes young people laugh when I wear it ONLY in Osaka...I won't wear it anywhere else cause I only get evil stares.)
Lemme know if your going to be on Shikoku (island to the west of Kansai and south of Chugoku.) I'll take you out to see some touge, as long as your not a serial killer!
