Interesting, I wonder why such a drop in attendance?

One reason for the decrease in attendees may be that this year's event began on a Friday, while Comiket 84 opened on a Saturday.

We got the same number Day 2 as well (just like Day 2 last summer was also 210,000).

Somehow, though, it felt like there were a LOT more people today than on Day 1.

Given that it's a Saturday today, I wonder what caused the drop from last year's Sunday numbers? Comiket 84's 3rd day was 170,000 on a Monday, so it'll be interesting to get 86's Sunday numbers, which should theoretically be higher since it's a weekend vs. a weekday last year.
