| 12:52pm | Comiket 75 Day 2 | | | | This will hopefully be a shorter post than my day 1 report, since fewer interesting things happened. It was still kind of a trainwreck though.

| 3:19pm | Comic Market 75 Day 1 Report | | | | Did Comiket really end just a week ago? It all seems so far away and dreamlike, except it’s one of those bad horror story dreams where you wake up and you’re out like 700 bucks and there’s a pile of doujin right next to your pillow. Also, a crystal skull. I decided to take day 1 of... | | |

| 2:32am | New genres in Touhou music | | | | Azure & Sands are putting out an unfortunately-named album of Touhou Christmas music at C75, a bargain at 100¥.

| 2:30am | Type-Moon DVD sales numbers | | | | According to this unsourced thread that I will still unconditionally believe, Tsukihime sold almost 20,000 copies for volume 1, then dropped to about 15,000 a disc. F/SN stayed pretty steady at around 25,000 a disc, and the KnK movies so far have been breaking 75,000 a piece total. This Aniplex press... |
