Due to the general poor health of the staff after day 1 ( yes we got owned pretty badly) we decided not to attend day 2 and rest. The trip is quite gruelsome, and we have many pictures to show you later.

We ended up heading back to Ikebukuro around Sunshine City area and watched the Evangelion 2.0: You Can (not) Advance movie. The movie was simply amazing, and rekindled the Evangelion fanboy inside me. A quick summary without any spoilers, the movie is VERY different from the original series packed with lots of action and a twist near the end that throws the original Evangelion series completely into a new tangent. As most people already know about the new character Mari, she was an interesting addition to the cast. Rei has been given a bit more humanized personality and Asuka has become a more likeable character. I cannot wait for the final 2 movies that will wrap the series up. Just as a note, the theater and the screen was smaller than that what you would find at a typical theater in America.

Apart from that, after having experienced Comiket firsthand, we, the staff currently in Japan, have revised our battle plans and resupplied for the busiest day of Comiket, Day 3 (also referred to as boy's day). As an addition to the previous comment regarding the convention, Comiket is not a battlefield, Comiket is a war on an otaku level.
