Comiket

Comiket is focused primarily on the sale of doujin: non-commercial, self-published works.{{Cite web |url= https://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/WhatIsEng201401.pdf |title= What Is Comic Market? |publisher= Comic Market Preparatory Committee |language=en| access-date=2018-12-30}} Approximately 35,000 circles (a term for groups or individuals who create doujin) participate in each edition of Comiket.{{cite web|title=Comic Market 66 After Report|url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/C66/C66AfterReport.html|publisher=Comiket|access-date=January 7, 2013}} Different circles exhibit on each day of Comiket; circles producing works on a common subject, such as a particular media franchise or manga genre, are typically grouped on the same day.{{Cite web |author=Chavez, Ed |date= Aug 21, 2007 |url= https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/new-titles/adult-announcements/article/4706-fan-creativity-explodes-at-comiket.html |title= Fan Creativity Explodes at Comiket |publisher= Publishers Weekly |language=en| access-date=2018-12-30}} The most common item sold at Comiket is doujinshi (self-published comics, novels or magazines), while a smaller number of circles sell doujin soft, analog (board/card/etc.) games, music, clothing, and other goods. These are often derivative fan works based on anime, video games, and other media, legal according to Japanese law (shinkokuzai). Since Comiket's inauguration, sample copies of all works sold at Comiket are collected and archived by ComiketPC, with over 2.1 million works having been archived.

Comiket is a major outlet for cosplay enthusiasts. Since Comiket 80 in 2011, restrictions on cosplaying have been gradually relaxed, with a shift from regulating objects (e.g. a ban on items that could be used as weapons) to regulating behavior (e.g. a ban on swinging around long objects). Some general contemporary guidelines include not wearing clothes that are too revealing, not imitating uniformed officers, and being out of cosplay when arriving/departing from Comiket.{{Cite web|url=https://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/TAFO/C96TAFO/cmkfor_eng.html|title=Comic Market's Website for Overseas Attendees|website=www.comiket.co.jp|access-date=2020-02-08|edition=[Comiket 96-98]}}

Comiket hosts 190 corporate booths each year. This includes both large commercial companies, such as video game studios and manga publishers, as well as celebrity meet and greet sessions.

Comiket is held twice yearly, in August and December. These events are distinguished as "Summer Comic Market" (Natsukomi) and "Winter Comic Market" (Fuyukomi).{{cite book |last=McCarthy |first=Helen |author-link=Helen McCarthy |title=500 Manga Heroes & Villains |year=2006 |publisher= Chrysalis Book Group |location= Hauppauge, New York, USA |isbn=978-0-7641-3201-8 |page=14 |chapter= Manga: A Brief History }} Since 1995, both events have run for three days each, with Summer Comiket generally occurring Friday to Sunday in mid-August, and Winter Comiket generally occurring the three days prior to New Year's Day.

Hour-long queues to enter Comiket during peak hours are common, while some attendees queue up to five hours before the event to ensure early admission. Popular circles are frequently placed near the venue's loading docks so that their queues can extend outside. ComiketPC recommends that first-time attendees arrive in the afternoon to avoid queues.{{cite web |url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/TAFO/C76TAFO/C76eng.html |title=To Attendees from Overseas: Comic Market (Comiket) 76 |work=ComicMarket WebSite To Attendees from Overseas |publisher=Comiket Inc |access-date=July 5, 2010}}

For every Comiket, a catalog is released that contains information about the event. The catalog includes a list of all participating circles, maps of the convention layout, directions to and from the convention, rules for the convention, results from surveys held among Comiket participants, articles about topics relevant to dōjinshi creators, and one to two pictures ("circle cuts") for every participating circle. It is available in print and DVD-ROM format, and since Comiket 83, is available online behind a partial paywall.{{cite web|title=Comiket WEB CATALOG|url=https://webcatalog.circle.ms/|access-date=December 27, 2012}}

To date, there is no English edition of the catalog available, though the catalog does contain a four-page basic guide for attending Comiket in English, Chinese, and Korean.{{cite web|title=ComicMarket WebSite To Attendees from Overseas|url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/TAFO/C83TAFO/cmkfor.html|publisher=Comiket|access-date=January 7, 2013}}

Prior to Comiket 96, a purchased catalog was not required for admission to Comiket (see 2020 Summer Olympics changes below).

The overwhelming majority of Comiket circle participants are amateur and hobbyist artists: 70% of participating circles lose money, while only 15% turn a profit. The majority of circle participants at Comiket are female, with women composing 57% of participating circles at Comiket 84. General attendees at Comiket tend to skew male, with men comprising 64% of attendees at Comiket 78.{{cite web |website=Comiket.co.jp |url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/WhatIsJpn201401.pdf |script-title=ja:コミックマーケットとは何か？ 2014年1月] - コミックマーケット準備会 |language=ja |trans-title=What is the Comic Market?

Of the Comiket circle participants, a 2011 poll showed that nearly half participated because attending the event and showing off their work is enjoyable, and a significant percentage came to spread their works to the public.{{Cite journal|last1=Leavitt|first1=Alex|last2=Horbinski|first2=Andrea|date=2012-06-15|title=Even a monkey can understand fan activism: Political speech, artistic expression, and a public for the Japanese dōjin community|url=https://journal.transformativeworks.org/index.php/twc/article/view/321|journal=Transformative Works and Cultures|language=en|volume=10|doi=10.3983/twc.2012.0321|issn=1941-2258|doi-access=free}} A smaller percentage of dōjinshi creators' goal is to promote an idea or opinion through attending Comiket.

The majority of those participating in circles in 2010 said that they are a part of a one-person circle (59%), while two-person (20%) and three-person (8%) circles were also common.{{Cite book|url=http://p.booklog.jp/book/7668|title=絵師白書2010|language=ja}}{{Dead link|date=September 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

Since 1993, ComiketPC has donated over ¥60 million to sustainable forest management to offset paper used in the production of dōjinshi. Since 2007, ComiketPC has worked with the Japanese Red Cross Society to organize bloodmobiles at Comiket events, with donors given Comiket-exclusive posters depicting characters from anime and video games. The Red Cross receives an estimated 1,500 blood donations at each Comiket.{{cite web|title=Blood drives at Comic Market, one of Japan's largest events|url=http://www.jrc.or.jp/activity/blood/cross/140710_001227.html|publisher=Japanese Red Cross Society|access-date=December 31, 2018|archive-date=31 December 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181231143831/http://www.jrc.or.jp/activity/blood/cross/140710_001227.html|url-status=dead}}{{cite web |title=輸血用の血液がピンチ！ 新型コロナで献血会中止相次ぎ |url=https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20201226/k10012786421000.html |website=NHK |access-date=1 January 2022 |language=Japanese |date=26 December 2020}}

Comiket was inaugurated in 1975 by {{ill|Meikyu|ja|迷宮_(同人サークル)}} (Labyrinth), a dōjin circle founded by Yoshihiro Yonezawa, {{ill|Teruo Harada|ja|霜月たかなか}}, and {{ill|Jun Aniwa|ja|亜庭じゅん}} while studying at Meiji University. The first Comiket was organized amid a period of immense change and upheaval for manga as a medium, characterized by the closure of the experimental manga magazine COM and the ascendance of the Year 24 Group.{{cite book |title=Dreamland Japan: Writings on Modern Manga |first=Frederik L. |last= Schodt |publisher=Stone Bridge Press |isbn=978-1-880656-23-5 |year=1996 |page=40 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Loug6sbKTvEC&pg=PA40}}{{cite web |url=http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2000-08-17/world%27s-biggest-underground-comic-convention |title=World's Biggest Underground Comic Convention |date=August 17, 2000 |publisher=Anime News Network |access-date=May 5, 2009}}{{cite book |last=Kinsella |first=Sharon |editor1-last=Gelder |editor1-first=Ken|title=The Subcultures Reader |publisher=Routledge |location=London; New York |year=2005 |orig-year=2000 |edition=2nd |pages=542–543 |chapter=Amateur Manga Subculture and the Otaku Incident|chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=46OYHkjZR4AC&q=comiket&pg=PA542 |isbn=978-0-415-34415-9 |oclc=57530654 }} A 1975 incident in which a dōjin creator applying for {{ill|Nihon Manga Taikai|ja|日本漫画大会}} was refused admission after criticizing the convention's focus on professional guests over dōjin creators in her application became a catalyst for the founding of Comiket as a fan convention.{{cite news |url=http://beta.japantimes.co.jp/life/2009/06/14/general/new-university-library-puts-focus-on-the-fans/ |title=New university library puts focus on the fans |last=Galbraith |first=Patrick L. |date=June 14, 2009 |work=The Japan Times |access-date=July 26, 2009}}{{cite web|url=https://www.academia.edu/9194456|title=The cultural economy of fanwork in Japan: dōjinshi exchange as a hybrid economy of open source cultural goods|first=Nele|last=Noppe|date=September 3, 2014|page=100|url-access=registration }}

As Comiket grew, a lottery system to allocate exhibition space was implemented in 1979, as the number of applications from circles began to surpass available space. In 1981 the event moved to {{Interlanguage link|Harumi Fairgrounds|ja|東京国際見本市会場}} and began publishing an event catalog in 1982. Comiket would change locations frequently throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, as the Japanese bubble economy led to an upsurge in trade shows that made it difficult to secure a consistent venue. The murders by Tsutomu Miyazaki and subsequent moral panic against otaku would lead to further difficulties in Comiket's ability to secure a venue. Tokyo Big Sight hosted Comiket for the first time in 1996, and remains the convention's primary venue. In 1998 (C54), an arsonist placed incendiary devices in the venue the day before the event, which were noticed and neutralized with no major damage; the event was held as normal, though with heightened security. The arsonist was caught at the following event.{{Cite book |last=Ōchi |first=Yōko |title=Komikku māketto e yōkoso |publisher=Seikaisha Shinsho |year=2022 |isbn=9784065300442 |location=Tokyo |pages=273-75 |language=JA}}

In 2012, anonymous threats made against circles creating works related to Kuroko's Basketball led Comiket to prohibit the sale of all Kuroko's Basketball-related items at Comiket 85 (see Kuroko's Basketball § Controversies).{{cite web |last1=Nakamura |first1=Toshi |title=Threats Against Manga Artist Lead To Empty Tables At Comiket 83 |url=https://kotaku.com/threats-against-manga-artist-lead-to-empty-tables-at-co-5972741 |website=Kotaku |access-date=27 July 2019 |date=3 January 2013}} Organizers refunded the registration fees for the roughly 900 circles producing Kuroko's Basketball items, resulting in a loss for Comiket of roughly ¥10 million.{{cite web |last1=Hodgkins |first1=Crystalyn |title=Comiket Loses 10 Million+ Yen Over Kuroko's Basketball Threats |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-12-24/comiket-loses-10-million+yen-over-kuroko-basketball-threats |website=Anime News Network |access-date=27 July 2019 |date=24 December 2012}} In 2015, ComiketPC organized a special event specifically focused on doujinshi related to the series.{{cite web|url=http://animeanime.jp/article/2014/05/05/18552.html|title=Kuroko's Basketball Doujinshi Event "Kuroket" to be Held By Comic Market|publisher=AnimeAnime.Jp|date=2014-05-05|access-date=2014-06-28|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714141400/http://animeanime.jp/article/2014/05/05/18552.html|archive-date=2014-07-14|url-status=dead}} Affectionately nicknamed "Kuroket", the event hosted approximately 2,400 circles producing Kuroko's Basketball items.{{Cite web|title = 開催のご報告 - 黒子のバスケオンリー同人誌即売会「くろケット」|url = http://cmksp.jp/kuroket/w/2015/04/report/|website = cmksp.jp|access-date = 2015-09-17}}

{{anchor|2020 Summer Olympics changes}}

In August 2018, ComiketPC announced modified schedules for Comikets 96, 97, and 98 due to the 2020 Summer Olympics. As the east wing of Big Sight closed in 2019 for renovations in advance of the Olympics, the corporate booths of C96 and C97 were moved to Aomi Exhibition Hall, and both events expanded to four days of programming. Admission to both events required the purchase of a wristband – the first time in Comiket's history it was not free to attend – in order to offset the cost of running the event across four days, and to depress attendance in light of the smaller venue space.{{Cite web |author= Sherman, Jennifer|date= 2018-12-31 |url= https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-12-31/comic-market-considers-hours-with-no-charge-if-it-adds-entrance-fees-for-2019-2020/.141525 |title=What will you be doing at comiket Olympic Games until 2020? |publisher= Comiket |language=ja | access-date=2019-01-01}} Wristbands for all four days were included with the purchase of a print event catalog, while individual wristbands for each day were available to purchase at Big Sight the day of the event.{{Cite web |url= https://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/C95/in2019/in2019.html |title=Comic Market Considers Hours With No Charge If It Adds Entrance Fees for 2019, 2020 |publisher= Anime News Network |language=en| access-date=2019-01-01}} C98 in 2020 was slated to be moved to Golden Week in May in order to not conflict with the Olympics in August. On 27 March 2020, ComiketPC announced that C98 had been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the first time a Comiket event has been cancelled.{{cite web |last1=Harding |first1=Daryl |title=Comiket 98 Has Been Canceled to Limit the Spread of Coronavirus |url=https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2020/03/27-1/comiket-98-has-been-canceled-to-limit-the-spread-of-coronavirus |website=Crunchyroll |access-date=27 March 2020 |language=en-us}} On 12 July 2020, it was announced that Comiket 99 would be postponed to 2021, taking place during Golden Week as C98 would have in order to not conflict with the Summer Olympics, which were also postponed. A virtual event titled "Air Comiket" was held in December to replace its originally planned dates.{{Cite web|date=2020-07-12|title=Comiket 99 Canceled, Looks Toward 2021 Golden Week Event|url=https://otakuusamagazine.com/comiket-99-canceled-looks-toward-2021-golden-week-event/|access-date=2020-07-12|website=Otaku USA Magazine|language=en-US}} Comic Market 99 was ultimately delayed to December 2021, and ran for only two days with entry limited to 55,000 people per day by requiring ticket purchases.
