| Ugh, I'd hate to live there and have all those fans coming around. |

| If I lived there, I'd be putting my house up for sale immediately. Downtown Tokyo would be quieter than what's coming there!! |

| Sounds like fun to me. Also, its good for their economy. They can probably make some handy improvements to their town with the extra revenue. |

| hmmm. Seems insanely chaotic. If only Otaku weren't looked so down upon in Japan. I guess you'd have to say anime fan to get a way with it. |

| Some rather interesting bicycles are pictured on that Akibahobby link. It appears there's nothing a dedicated Otaku cannot customise to their liking. |

| It's not like these people are perminently living there, it's only for a few days, and as someone else said, it's good for their economy. This happens everywhere around the world; tourists comming to a certain part of the world and locals getting aggrivated at the outsiders. It just happened here in Vegas; thousands of tourists visiting Las Vegas and the Hoover Dam for the holidays, but tourists are the #2 reason for Las Vegas' strong economy, so if anything it will help the Japanese. |

| If this was something else aside from Lucky Star, I wouldn't mind, but the fact that it is means instant fail.... |

| You divide 300,000 by by 33.33 and so forth, it's over 9000. |

| Locals may or may not complain, but nothing talks as much as $$$. Really, not so different from the college football season: lots of people visit for a couple days at certain times of the year celebrating their favored entertainment and showcasing their loyalty. But really, I wonder how long the fervor will last, as the anime series closes on two years old. |

| Sounds like there is enough interest to warrant a second season of Lucky☆Star sometime. |
