Parz's Comiket 103 Retrospective: Or, "How I became a Warrior of Love"

Tomorrow would never come for me, as my heart would always be There.
(yeah, I kinda regret not blogging any of it but that didn't really cross my mind until it was too late. plus to show anything would require extensive censoring, so just enjoy a few pictures I guess. Also sorry for the wait, I took too long editing this one)

Your story is so wholesome! I don't know anything about doujin music but you sound passionate

[@yotsugidoll9899]

Visiting the Comic Market has also been a massive dream of mine so it was nice hearing your experience. I hope I'm able to go at some point.

[@kimoiotaku]

I highly recommend it since it's a much different experience than the anime conventions most non-Japanese fans are more familiar with. There's a stronger sense of camaraderie and community despite being such a large event.

[@shionsonozaki5730]

Nah you just need literal confidence. When talking to Japanese venders

[@shionsonozaki5730]

Old as hell video but this really comes off as hey guy's l am one of you not one of those filthy stupid foreigners which is just going in blind.

[@majomist7232]

Amazing you could just talk to Japanese people, even though I'm N1 I'd be way too fucking nervous to talk to anyone. Shows that speech and comprehension are different skills.

[@kimoiotaku]

I probably have the Japanese proficiency of a child but I kept telling myself "this is the only chance you'll have to practice speaking." It also helps knowing even if I screwed up I'll never see these people again. I'm a baka gaijin anyways so who cares how they see me.
Though some folks were rather receptive, like this one shopkeeper in Harajuku that was interested in how I learned Japanese.
