The 104th iteration of Comiket took place at Tokyo’s Big Sight convention center on August 11 and 12. As Japan’s biggest celebration of independent manga and anime creators, there’s tons of amazing artwork showcased every year at the event, but Comiket itself is also a sight to see.
The convention attracts massive crowds, which not only make for amazing photographs, but also mesmerizing time-lapse videos of the flowing currents in the sea of humanity.
There’s a similar sensation watching time-lapse clips of fans making their way en masse from Kokusai-Tenjijo, the nearest station to Big Sight, at the start of Comiket’s second day.
