Today we are going to look at the Doujinshi stuff at C71. If you liked yesterdays post then you will love this one. For those who are not familiar with the Doujin world, Wikipedia has a pretty good explanation. Most of the Doujinshi I saw was of the ero nature. I heard that the final day of the Comike always concentrates on ero stuff but I'm not sure about the other days. What I didnt know until I was at C71 was that there were many Doijin software too - I thought it was all just comics.
As you can see from some of the pics in this post - the Laughing Man went into overtime! I may have missed a spot or two though...

Ah! Nice post over there danny :)

The blood donation drive being held there was pretty funny.

There seems to be quite a couple of Haruhi doujins :/ 

You could have worn your stormtrooper suit, cloned yourself so that you could do cosplay coverage as well :p

Guess you weren't there on Saturday or in the East Hall 456 on Friday because all I saw on Sat was BL and most of the 456 on Friday was FMA BL and Ookiku Furikabute BL. Pretty good mix if you ask me but there is more than ero-manga for the guys.

Got to give the fujoshi some love

it would have been nice if you did some coverage of the cosplayers too ... but I guessed there was simply too much stuffs anyway ... 

were all the doujinshi by established circles?

I find it strange (and kinda humbling) that for a nation that still censors its porn, such a large amount of dodgy stuff can be exhibited in a major convention space!
Its wierd because some 'CG artists' i had bookmarked around 5 years ago under anime art (such as sky lounge garden) are releasing stuff here, and have gotten a hellva lot better and smuttier!
Cool update, though i would have felt like a right dirty old man if i were in your shoes!
BTW - No login problems this time, though i did have to re-type my 'figures, games etc' bit in.

Also, Haruhi seems to have overtaken NGE for 'most doujin-ed' series at the mo! 
Surely stuff like this would get the creators of haruhi coming down on them like a ton of bricks regarding copyright?

oh wow...... talk about haruhism to the max, its like mikuru/yuki/haruhi naked in every other picture there. (wait...make that every picture)
thankfully i managed to recover from my addiction to haruhism (AKA managing to stop myself from buying haruhi merchandise long enough to get myself a wii. ahhh wii, its soooooo gooood), and now i moved on to keroro. (out of the frying pan and into the fire :P)

AndyH,
I believe they have permission to sell that stuff only on the specified days and in the hall only.
Re the Figures and Games retype -happens to me sometimes too although I'm saving those values in a cookie. Would you prefer it to be editable in your account - that way they wont disappear.

Alafista,
Sorry about that - next time ^^

Tsubaki,
You get to see your fave geass girlies as you never imagined them.

You must have been luck to not get squashed by hundreds of otaku on ero day, especially since you are carrying a camera. It's quite a feat to be able to maneuver through the crowd to get to where you want to.

Yes I would buy Doujinshi (sp?) if local bookstores supported it. The ero stuff... eh it actually turns me OFF rather than on.

I've always been a person to support local community, especially when the schtuff is schtuff I like =D

I'd probably faint from massive loss of blood due to excessive nosebleeding if I was there. hahahah.

Great pics.  I'm a fan of that Kasumi(DoA) doujinshi (i'm wondering if the artist of that is Tasuku Iizuki?).  Too bad you didn't get to take some pics of the cosplay though.  Maybe next time. ^^
