C71 - 会場の様子

I wonder if they have a sign up at the toliets saying: Dont Sh*t here....

:-)

I guess some liberties are usually sacrficed for the sake of orderliness. ^^ wonder if they'd shoo you off if you sprained your ankle along that hallway as well. ^^

Zplus, I saw I sign like that once, girls are allowed to take a dump but guys aren't. I'd post a link here, however unfortunately the sign is in a foreign language. :p

wow 5000 yen for a paper bag ... which makes you stand way out on your way home ... LOL ... i wouldn't buy that ...

Are there any "Don't masturb*te here" signs as well? :)

I guess the "No stopping" here is to prevent crowd build-up.

But the "Don't walk" on the escalator is real funny. It might break if you walk! Lol

Danny, can't you do what you're told?
Just kidding! Keep annoying them!

I don't mind waiting in line for a while, but if it's for hours...

It surely is worth the pain after all. Still, no sitting... and if you got wobbly legs, what do you do?

Are you allowed to bring some sandwich for lunch at least? I guess not even.

And yes, those people with microphones are a bit... too much in terms of law and respect.

Hope you had fun (and happy nosebleeds!!)

Heh, I've been reading the Genshiken managas and reading your Comike posts at the same time. Spooky

Let us take this time to bless MIDI for the wonderful doujin which I am about to receive. And let us also thank the Japanese for allowing this sort of thing to go on (Comiket, not just the porn). And let us also

The longest I ve waited [u]in line[/u] for anything is less than an hour, not a fan of standing in line, would rather be late adopter or pay someone to queue up if really need be.

Longest I ever needed to wait in line was to queue up for the Nintendo Wii at Target.... 8-9+ hours.

Soooooooooo many people. I'm not a fan of waiting in line as well. Longest was probably about an hour max.

You wouldn't go if you didn't have a press pass right? I'm allergic to waiting. What's with Japanese and their queues?

LOL, Singaporeans would'nt mind it if they queue for loooooooooong hours or sometimes even camp through the night to get free stuffs...

Call me crazy, but I wanted to see that designated stopping area. I'm just trying to imagine how different it really was.

What would be really hilarious is if some one stopped and stood still forever trying to interpret the signs.

a lot of signs in there -__-"
they must be mad.

ps. Really like the whole building, structures etc. any chance of more pics around the building?

i'm not surprised at the volume of ppl and the doujin cirles since this is Comiket but i'm surprised at the rules and at the strict marshals who enforces them but it's understandable since this is a very huge event and possible chaos could happen anytime and prevention is better than a cure.

this is really interesting, i thought that you can rest anywhere at the Big Site but with Comiket it seems you can't and you can only rest at designated areas.

i so wanted to see how the organizers manages and organized this one of a kind event :3

Love those little bits of strict authoritative signage!
The system must work though - the Japanese respect authority and generally behave better in public, and to each other than most civilisations.
The no walking when you were solo on the travolator was a bit daft though.
Nice to see the outside of big sight too. I bet all the otaku were like "natural light - AIIIEEE!"

wow im not that hardcore XD, usually if i want to get something and theres a huge line ill go forget it -.- go to another store or buy online lol

Whoa! Man that's probably the longest line I've ever seen! Even when I camped out for the 360 and Wii, the lines weren't that bad!

I really appreciate your patience to be willing to wait in that line for so long to bring the news to us. Thank you Danny!

Ah the wonderful queues, a pure 5 hours of waiting in line only to find that you have to line up again if you are heading to the industry booths.

Vertico,
The wallpaper tool will come soon - promise promise!

Mac,
Just imagine a blue box on the floor with people in it^^;

TJ Han,
No Press Pass = Would not go ^^;

Wow... there's a lot of people...

but not many are women...

I think I would wait in line... though having a press pass does seem like the route I would try to go if I was going to one of those things. Of course, getting to Japan costs and arm and a leg...

Danny, what sort of criteria do you have to meet to get press passes for those things?

As I am agoraphobic I never waited so long in crowd. I ask my friends to do it for me :)

Missing a choice for "less then 5 hours." I would never stand in a line that long!

Well, I went to the Comic Market 59 and spent almost 1 hour in the line to get in...

Comiket 71, isn't it about 2, 3 years ago?

geez what a load of people in those pics kinda reminds me of the comiket scene in lucky star.

As usual theres LOADS OF PPL!! XD
