They had heavy restrictions on admissions until the start of this year like with every event. If you doubt me, here's the source right from the Cabinet themselves about how the restrictions were only removed this May.
https://corona.go.jp/news/news_20230406_01.html
I can't tell you what the turnout will be specifically, but of course you'd lose your numbers when you're told by the government you're only allowed to do so many a day. If anything the numbers are great considering how they actually went up during C100, when there was a typhoon happening.

You still require tickets to enter and is still 2 days instead of 3 days, numbers are less than half that it used to be in 2019, if that is not bad to you then i don't know what is
Also as an aside, since artists discovered during covid you can get paid more by doing shitty CG sets on fanbox/fantia for less effort is pretty much certain comiket will never be what it used to be

Again you're speaking on numbers when there was limited admission. As in, a limited amount of people could get in, 55k per day specifically. That's why there was a lotto for example. The fact that 20k circles managed to get in was a miracle to begin with. Using the numbers of attendees during the years when there was a maximum amount of people that were allowed by the government is like complaining about your glass of water not having two glasses worth in it.
As for the shorter days that much is just inevitable when Japan's still coming off it, I imagine C104 will be back to three days and there's still a non-zero chance C103 can get extended to a third day too. I'm not really interested in repeating the argument about how comiket is dead now just like when they first added admissions.

>> No.44293579

>>44293535
I wanna correct myself because it was bothering me right after I got up that I didn't clarify so sorry for the late correction; it was 55k the first time around. The number of attendees in the following ones were the maximum number up until this event where it's no longer capped. I'm going to stop now since this ain't what the threads about anyways.

I was only able to win the first day and got the ticket issued when I landed in Japan at Family Mart a few days ago.

I mean there was a time period where comiket wasn't even known for following particular series like it is today, but was more of a general artist/hobbyist market (which nominally it still is, hence why any pushback against gacha and vtuber shit on principle wouldn't fly).
There's also nothing preventing oddball unpopular stands like doll creators, RC, gaming, trains, history, etc. Or stuff like cosplay photobooks.

Where people fuck up is thinking that whatever cultural context drew them in is going to last, or that this cultural space was made for that context and by some egocentric extension, themselves for being in that context.

Otherwise, you can visit a international shipping store just like any Japanese person as long as you can swallow the shame of being seen with that by people who you will never see again (I assume they'd wrap it up on the spot).

The dingy incomprehensibility was part of the charm! I really hate the new K-BOOKS.

I'll grudgingly accept the new Kotobukiya because I wasn't particularly attached to the old one and the new one is an easy spot to pick up a bunch of souvenirs for people back home. Volks at least has some cute hand-drawn pops and stuff, I guess.
I am glad the deeper parts still exist at least.
