Gonna be in Osaka for next week

Planning on spending a week in Osaka, has the expo crowd died down already? The last time I was in Osaka(this summer) I spent 2 hour clearing customs and the entire shinsaibashi/namba area was just boiling with tourists and it wasn’t pleasant, I ve noticed the hotel prices have come down, can any body on the ground let me know how’s the foot traffic in the area
