コミックマーケット98(5月2日~5日開催・於:東京ビッグサイト)は、新型コロナウイルス感染症(COVID-19)拡大防止の観点から、誠に残念ではありますが、開催を中止いたします。開催1か月前ほどのご案内となり大変申し訳ありませんが、ご理解のほどお願いいたします。 https://bit.ly/3anchYv

Comiket takes the only good decision in this current pandemic. And, in my opinion, that makes Reitaisai look irresponsible.

Feel free to share your thoughts.

At this point, the virus will basically destroy everything, well beyond the predicted future of humanity.

Damn this is really unfortunate. I hope this means a huge backlog of material that artists have been working on for next time.
