All the cool effects, honorifics, translator notes that explain references that you might miss as non-japanese viewer... Whoever put this much effort for free more than 10 years ago, thank you! It was so refreshing seeing this in the era of corporate sloppy subtitles!

You're definitely right that so many things become too large and commercialized but I'd disagree that passionate people become insignificant drop in the ocean. I might be wrong since I always follow and interact with fans of the medium and try to distance myself from anyone that brings nothing but negativity but I feel like passion still has a very strong presence and it won't fall this easily!

Akiba is constantly changing but it's still a heart of otaku culture. If you ever have a chance to visit please do so. It's a truly magical place for both electronics and anime.

Comiket story is funny because it was created to give the middle finger to corporations. Now that corporate came back crawling and started to feel too comfortable fans pushed back. We'll see how it goes but if Comiket becomes what is swore to destroy then I guess a new challenger will appear.
