I then went on to find out the attendance of both event. Comic Market (Comiket) 65 was held between 2003/12/28-30, a 3-day event. The total attendance of the event was indeed 420,000 people in total, that is, 140,000 per day. Ref: http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/C65/C65AfterReport.html Tokyo Motor Show 37 was held between 2003/10/24-2003/11/05, a 13-day event. The total attendance of the event was 1,420,400 people, that is, 109,262 people per day. Ref: http://www.tokyo-motorshow.com/show/data/ Comiket indeed has attracted more people than Tokyo Motor Show in daily attendance. -- 'CuSO4' Yung cuso4@cuso4.com, cuso4@manbow.com, cuso4@computer.org
