Once again the increasingly overpowering dominance Touhou worshippers and creepy fujoshi exert over Comiket is the subject of much discussion, thanks to the release of the latest circle numbers for the upcoming C81 – and so pronounced is their dominance that some are now calling for them to be forcibly hived off into their own events.
The circle statistics for Comiket 81:
Touhou: 2690
Tiger & Bunny: 1170
Hetalia: 1000
Sengoku Basara: 842
Vocaloid: 492
Prince of Tennis: 460
Reborn: 458
Gintama: 438
Blue Exorcist: 428
IdolMaster: 417
Inazuma Eleven: 398
Madoka: 350
Tomodachi ga Sukunai: 322
Nintama: 298
Arashi: 282
Durarara: 278
Lyrical Nanoha: 271
One Piece: 254
Naruto: 244
Magi: 227
K-ON!: 200
By now there is a certain amount of resignation about all this:
“Hardly any Hetalia…”
“They really ought to spin these off into their own events when they get to this scale. The way they use the venue is pretty wasteful.”
“With that many single work circles they really are more suited to having their own events.”
“I don’t think it’ll happen, Comiket has a lot of prestige for these circles.”
“Who’s to say how many are too many? Are Tiger & Bunny and Hetalia OK? If the organisers just decided your favourite needed to get lost and have its own event, you’d be pissed.”
“I think when one work totally dominates an entire hall it might be said to be too numerous. It has never been this pronounced, has it? Even compared to previous booms, there was never anything dominating the event like this.”
“1500 is the ceiling really. But Touhou has nearly twice that! They’re just too numerous.”
“Shouldn’t they just chase out the fujoshi? Is all men that bad?”
“Commoners associate Comiket with men buying ero-doujinshi, so it would be better just to ban male oriented ero.”
“Just chase out the Touhou maniacs and fujoshi and I’ll go.”
There do not appear to have been much in the way of management efforts to alter Comiket’s circle composition, so an eventual transformation into a 25% Touhou, 75% fujoshi event may yet be inevitable.

Long live Touhou, fuck the haters.
inb4 haters hatin' in response.
In all seriousness... Even as a Touhou fan, too much of something is always bad.
Unless we're talking about boobs.
If it wasn't for Tohou it'd be just fujoshi.
You're into BL?! No thanks, I don't enjoy being fucked.
touhou =/= bl... geeze. The fujoshi hate is aimed at spots 2 3 and 4. I dont even know if there are any male characters in touhou.
Touhou >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BL
Plain and simple.
Facepalm at Touhou = BL -_-U
All I know about Touhou is through doujins, is that bad? :D
@yaku
Yes, it is bad. You should try playing the games, enjoying the challenge and the eargasmic music. You're going to love it, believe me.
Hail and long lived
All hail Touhou!
If fuujoshis dominate again, WE SHALL RIOT!
Why all the hate, my friend?
Comiket is big enough for all of us together to enjoy. We all get a share in it. There you can find works on your favorite subject, whatever it is.
If a large number of girls like BL, what's wrong? There will always be many other more artists involved in other themes for us to enjoy, simply because I think most of them create works on subjects they like themselves in the first place.
Comiket didn't start as a genre war playground, but as a place to promote original creation and freedom of thinking/expression.
And a last thought: don't forget, in the best Touhou tradition, that Defeat Means Friendship. There's no need to be at war with each other; we can all enjoy a nice cup of herb tea or sake looking at the moon and chatting together, even if we like different things.
(Sorry if all this sounds quite messy... english is not my native language and I'm on a fever right now)
I'm a dude and i wouldn't mind if they got what they want.
Touhou Fuck ya!
Shino needs to do some more touhou stuff.
Quit fucking haters you homo!
Dankemon, fight da powah!
FUCK FUJOSHI!
You know, if the male fans would actually try talking to the female fans, you might be on to something.....
That's definitely not a good idea.
They can't. They're 2D-sexual and incapable of dealing with actual conversations with real women. They could be psychologically scarred.
And of course those closet fujoshis who're fawning over their yaoi fantasy aren't as bad, right?
Well at least they didn't ruin their own brand of anime and manga just yet. So as you guys managed to do.
If I was in Japan, I would. All those bitches need are a couple sweet words and the panties drop.
I came here to post a comment along the lines that these angry otaku need to go fuck fujoshi, and vice versa. They're clearly the best fits for one another.
Also, where else are they going to find other virgins?
So true. But you see, due to them living in imaginary world, they set their standards for their partners way too high.
Literally? With the hawt and good/cute looking ones?
Why not? :3
LOL Fujoshiket.
Ah yes, the power of Fujoshi, terrifying indeed.
You fail to differe between terrifying and plain annoying.
turn all the fujoshi girls into women !
Oh look. The rabid fujoshis are now trying to take over SanCom by downvoting us and turning this entire site into Fujoshi Complex.
Sorry fujoshis but you will never break the spirit of SanCom and its people!
lol I haven't seen any downvoting of your comment so far XD SanCom is lovely just the way it is, why change it?? Gimme all the pussy and boobies with the occasional smidgen of cocks, we don't mind! We don't discriminate! In fact MORE :D
Sorry but Comiket needs less yaoi and more yuri/straight stuffs. I hate to say this but you and you fellow fujoshis are the reason why the shoujo genre is degrading into a yaoi fest. You don't seem to idolize the genre as much as you do with shounen. Furthermore, most of you girls don't support or idolize the beautiful bishoujo girls that exist in the anime world. You know, the anime characters of your gender that you're supposed to show respect with more than you do with the bishies.
Maybe they don't support bishoujo girls because those characters are just the embodiment of male fantasies and have only the most cursory relationship to real girls?
Or maybe the problem is that you believe those characters are the way real girls are and act?
Looks like fujoshis are spreading the site like viruses. I guess I just said one cold, brutal truth.
Of course, we male otakus and mangakas are to blame for the degradation of bishoujos. Nowadays, most of them are like the walking sex toys that we adore to fap. We barely see some who have the supposed traits that an iconic bishoujo should have.
While I may be a sick pervert, I'm actually hurt by the fact there are more sexualized, fanservicey girls now than the ones who have strong-willed and well-mannered personalities.
Well, you seemed disappointed Lamberto so I went and downvoted all of your posts to give you the attention you wanted.
There's a reason the shoujo genre is falling short. Instead of acknowledging said reason they're now flocking toward other kind of mangas and slowly corrupting them into the same thing they abandoned.
It's a bit like locusts who ruined on field and now fly over to the next one which still looks fine and healthy to devastate it aswell.
@NakkiNyan-1 Sounds like you got yourself brutally downvoted as well.
Sorry anon and Lamberto, I think your way of thinking is not only childish, but incredibly dumb. I hope you're just trolling (you're not even doing it in a funny way, FAIL), because saying that fujoshi are polluting the shounen genre and other dumb statements just make me not take you seriously at all.
You seem upset.
It's like just mentioning downvoting on this site gets you downvoted... Oh snap!
Lamberto, if you had read my comment more carefully (you and a bunch of others, it seems) you'd see that I'd actually like for all the yuri and straight to STAY and PROLIFERATE without discriminating yaoi (I did say smidgen) within Comiket, but since you guys are way too inside your own cockfest jerking each other off it won't matter what I say, so good day.
Yaku. When you want to prove someone wrong you usually use facts or make a point.
(you fail lol, kek, haha)is not valid.
He said what he thought in a serious manner while making a point. I think you on the other hand didn't. You just bashed.
Take it like a boss, bitch.
Did Ogiue began all this?
Lamberto: by that same token, you're supposed to what? Show respect for and idolize bishonen, characters of your own gender? Go ahead with that.
I'm rather disappointed to see people actually taking the side of Lamberto's intolerant nonsense here and instead down voting the only person in this comment chain to make sense.
I love my yuri, and all the sexy things related to the delicious female form. Yaoi makes me gag, and thus I avoid it. It's quite simple.
But I will support yaoi to the end, the same way I do yuri, on grounds of not being a fucking hypocrite. Let everyone have their fun and don't hate on things that have no relevance to you. Find yourself a girl that loves yaoi, let her, and she will let you have your yuri. No one is forcing you to look at it.
I'm glad the fujoshi are rising! But they don't need to take over the whole event. That just leaves slim pickings.
Doesn't Touhou have Reitaisai?
...Not that I'm against Touhou.
i completely agree with you, bro
Touhou Pawns but Comiket was designed for more artist groups that just Touhou so can see the point
Solution Touhou Building Comiket Building Same Day XD
Lmao who the fk made this article?
and why are they arguing only over tohou? there's plenty other male oriented doujinshi's (ero goodness)
Hardly any hetalia? those fujoshi bitches are crazy. and ban male oriented ero? what the fuck? isn't it more appropriate and wise to ban the fujoshi material? for fuck's sake, those toxic rotten lowlives need to get the fuck out.
Doesn't this idiot mean 25% fujoshi and 75% touhou?
And to be quite frank, it's more likely and appropriate to ban fujoshi's, their stuff is always offending and they should make their own events away from comiket.
And Kouroumu (sp?)
Reitaisai is for Touhou
Comiket is for other doujinshi + Touhou
Reitaisai is for Touhou
Comiket is for Touhou + other doujinshi
I fix'd this for you.
