c77 day 3

Posted by acq128 

Day 3, glorious day 3.

Its the day i've looked forward to, and the most patience invested. on top of that, theres a crucial 5min that must be handled correctly or you will face some unkind consequences.

lining up at 10:30pm, i thought we were pretty good.

turns out there were already roughly 20,000 people ahead of us in a line. it took roughly 15min to walk to the end of the line from the main entrance area. the line meandered through the back streets which will not ever see such amounts of people all year.

maybe i'm being abit vague but so is my memory.

rest of the picures may tell the story, but for the main front page, the money shot

Hard earnt goods. These unfortunately already have owners designated and will all be transported overseas in a months time. I still have 4 weeks to go in Japan.

for those who don't know, these are T2 Artworks Goods Pack. I will write about it some more in a separate post further down this page.

so after a night's worth of cold gusty winds, not as bad as 1st day but still cold. we see day break on the 3rd day of Comiket 77

this is the east carpark line up area. How big the carpark was, i'm not too sure but it stretched the width of the 2 east halls and large enough for a firefighter drill training obstacles to be placed there. and this place was filled with people.

time: 7:30am

twisting skyroad in the background is the Yurikamome line, an automatically piloted monorail train that will deliver you to the front door of Big sight as well as other nice places with a pretty view of Odaiba.

the glass part is the upper part of the Galeria. the Galeria is the mid concourse passage way that splits east halls 1.2.3 and 4.5.6
this passage way is really packed and the entrance we were to take is on the ground floor of that.

OK venting anger time. we were inside basically heading for east hall 4 5 6. and it was pretty rough. as we go out to the proper line up area. i had to guess and choose a direction in which i had to find the end of the T2 line.

i ran abit, was told to stop running so i asked, "T2 wa doko desuka" the guy didn't know what T2 was, and thought i got the name wrong or something. wasted 2minutes, and we were in the wrong direction. I ignored him and turned back to the side i decided not to turn to. Found the end of the line fine except during that 3 minutes of time wasting, the growth of the line caused us to have to wait in the t2 line for an extended period of time. i estimated this to be around 30minutes. So if i went with my guts and not ask anyone, i would've saved 30min and went off to the 2nd place i was aiming for besides T2. I missed out the 2nd place by not much. 2nd year in a row same stuff happens =(

still need to improve. But this line took 1hr and 30min and we able to purchase 2 packs each. i thought i had a chance at the dakimakura or blanket but.... nope =(

    Would want the E2 Original 1/6 Cat Maid PVC too. I'm really tight on the spot right now though since I have quite a few preorders for the expected release month. Might have to cut back on other spendings.

    Lots of nice looking goods. and is that a figma subaru nakajima beside loli nanoha?

    Is that another Kanu Unchou? Kanu's always look so nice, I just can't get one due to the fact that my parents may think I'm weird.

      You do know that Ritsu's nendoroid comes with a second set of bangs that don't have a headband, right? <<
