We wrote the code while drinking sake after the comic market.


Comiket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Comiket (コミケット, Komiketto?), otherwise known as the Comic Market (コミックマーケット, Komikku Māketto?) or CM, is the world's largest comic convention, held twice a year in Tokyo, Japan.[1] The first CM was held in December 1975, with only about 32 participating circles and an estimated 600 attendees.[2] Attendance has since swelled to nearly a half million people.[1] It is a grassroots, DIY effort for selling dōjinshi, self-published Japanese works. As items sold in CM are considered very rare (because dōjinshi are seldom reprinted), some items sold at CM can be found in shops or on the Internet at prices up to 10 times the item's original price.

The continuing operation of CM is the responsibility of the Comic Market Preparatory Committee (CMPC).
