[LianYL] Comiket Day 1 Was Yesterday, And My Comiket Day 2 Post Can Only Be Up Tomorrow Night As I am Now Off To Camp At Big Sight
Popularity: 14% [?] Published by LianYL December 30th, 2007 in LianYLThe bunch of us made our way to Tokyo Big Sight by catching the last train, only to realise that the train stops at Ariake and does not proceed to Kokusai Tenjijou Station. It wouldn’t have been that bad if it wasn’t raining non-stop with accompanying near sub-zero winds. What were we doing? We were off to queue overnight at Tokyo Big Sight for the first day of Comiket. Wow, so exciting! So exciting that I heard some dude fell heavily sick standing in the winds. The ironic thins is that we had NOTHING particularly in mind when queueing up and were just queueing for the sake of a “fun experience”. Bad move. But who cares, we’re now off to queue for Day 3. What happened to Day 2? It should be up tomorrow night if I’m not to tired.
In any case, here are some unseen before overnight Comiket queueing pictures!
This is Toyosu train station
The ever classic photo ofperson taking a picture
By the time we reached, this was already the status of the front of the queue, and it stretches on for 400 metres
This is the queue line ten minutes after we queued
Halfway through the night, we were ushered by Comiket staff out into the open to await shifting to Big Sight. The thing is, it started to rain rather heavily. Rain + Strong winds + Winter season = Lots of shivering ponchos and umbrellas.
Oh dear Otaku Mecca
The pathway to the front of the line
To see Big Sight in person while shivering in the wind was really exhilarating
Given 5 more hours to wait in the rain
The line behind us
The queue line to the side of us
Let there be light!
Doujin circles start entering the hall
Staff selling leftover Comiket catalogue
The line starts moving inwards
The line leading to the commercial booths. Note that this is already considered the “front of the line”
Spot Gintoki
The queue to the commercial booths
This is the queue for KyoAni goods and a few others. Lame.
I queued 3.5 hours for Visual Arts booth, what you see is just 1/6 of the line. I am not kidding.
After an excruciating 3.5 hours, I reach the head of the line
This is a really, really hot cosplayer.
This is a ver, very awesomely cool Gurren Lagann cosplay group. Both Simon female cosplayers bandaged their breasts and painted it beige to simulate Simon’s bare chest. Not to mention that the temperature was near sub-zero. I salute their professionalism.
Goodbye Day 1, hello Day 2
A HUGE Visual Arts 2008 Calendar, not selling.
Touhou mascot keychain
Lame Lucky Star “mug” from KyoAni store. I will sell this.
A coloured flashlight that projects Konata onto a wall. I will sell this lame KyoAni thingy.
Haruhi character bag set, not selling.
Lucky Star bag set, selling.
CLANNAD bag set. Bookmarks and Fuuko are just as lame. Selling.
Key C73 special set, considering selling.
That’s all for Day 1. I had some really cool DM photos but he deleted them, meh.

Do not use any < and > for your own sake. It will end the comment there and then. Also, there is an automatic IQ filter which weeds out comments made by those who accidentally got transported from the stone age.

Comiket sounds like freezing hell. Well, at least you managed to get some phat loot.
Bookmarks from the CLANNAD set are lame?! B-But there’s Kotomi, Tomoyo AND Kyou… ;_;
LianYL, are you buying for other people already, or are you just collecting excess loot for selling later?
If it’s the latter, I call dibs on the CLANNAD bag set.
Only picked up stuff from Key and kyoani on the 1st day?? Well all the queueing must have been a killer. Especially when its cold.
need more cosplayer photos is that misato standing at the back? damm wrong angle.
didnt ja get those heat packs that they sell in japan? must have been sadly cold…
I hope j00 got me my hardcore Lamento yaoi doujin :p~
Lining up for 3 hours in one of the industry lines is to be expected. 3.5 hours is roughly how long I lined up for it when I went last time. Still, be glad that it wasn’t snowing. It’d be much worse if it was snowing.
Lol sounds like Hell but also fun at the same time…
Awesome l00t there.. Does sound fun, though I don’t think winter rain wind is. I’ve been in windy winters and it’s freezing enough..
My heart leapt at the Little Busters Set lol. If you’re selling I’m camping!
Have a fun Day 3 ^^
You’re a braver man than I, to stand out there in the cold and the rain like that.
Nice loot you got there, I gave up lining up on comiket 72 industrial booth, since I wanted to see everything there. But next year comiket 74 I will come early and buy things that I want
DO WANT that Key C73 special set. I must wonder how much you guys spent in total for Comiket though.
I am drowning in envy. Agh. But yeah, it looks really wet and cold. You guys need to stock up on medicine! So did all of you split up and head to different booths? O:
I salute your bravery Sir.
Queuing in the rain in the middle of cold winter night is serious business .
I am DYING for the Clannad bag set! If there’s absolutely any possibility you’d be willing to sell it to me, please contact me! I would be forever grateful! I’m always looking at the stuff that I can never have and feeling bad about it…if I had that set it would literally make my year! Please please contact me! (I don’t usually beg, but desperate times…)
Whoa whoa whoa!!! I called dibs on the CLANNAD bag set!!!
I figured I’ll just throw my name in for the C73 Key Goods set too if you’re selling.
Allright , i’m nuts. How much u selling the clannad set for .. lawl
crazy loots you got there
Wondering how much the Clannad bookmarks are (separate and all together)
@Koko They have already been sold.
