Comiket and Canadian Humor...

Aug 16, 2009 21:16

I went to Tokyo for the last time today in order to go to Summer Comiket, which was also the last thing left on my Japan To-Do list. It was a lot of fun, though very hot and I now have a nice sunburn. I took over 60 pictures of the cosplayers, so I'll be posting pictures when I'm back in America. (Hmm...I still need to do the Fangirl Tour ones, too ( Read more... )

random, cosplay, comiket, youtube, life in japan, the red green show

when they still used to play it on PBS here...aw, I always wanted to know what went on in Comiket. It sounded like a blast.

I discovered it in grade school years ago... wistfulmemory August 17 2009, 11:02:21 UTC

There's just something about the humor. Oh, and I love the men's prayer.

Comiket is basically a huge marketplace where you find every type of person possibly gathered at Tokyo Big Sight in order to buy fanmade manga. The first time I went, I felt like a cow being herded as you literally just follow the surging of the crowds of people unless you have a specific goal in mind. There are so many dealers that there's actually a huge guidebook you can buy in order to find the dealers you're interested in. I personally go because the cosplay is gorgeous and it's so much fun to take pictures.
