NAGOYA. JUST PLEASE CHOOSE NAGOYA!

Hmm... If it was me, I wouldn't go. I would have to take days off from work.

If I just take Friday off, I should be fine.

Why don't we just go to Hokkaido and hold it at a hot spring???

If we had Summer Comket in Kanto and Winter Comiket in Osaka, that would be fine, but BOTH in Osaka?? I want to cry.

Who cares where it is?? Just go and stop complaining!

COMIKET IS FOR TOKYO. Screw any other place!

I don't care where they do it! I just want to go somewhere nice.
