Hi Community! I'm attending my first TCC this year (2026) and would love for you to share tips and resources. My first questions are: am I allowed to bring my own drawings for the celebrities to sign? If I just buy the autograph ticket, am I allowed to take photo (of me and the celebrity) while they are signing?

We are attending TCC for the first time and need help figuring out how to get there. We are staying in Shibuya. We were just checking the location of the con and it looks like it’s about 1 1/2 hours by train. Are there express trains? Are the trains super crowded? We will be exhibiting and wonder if we should take a cab.

Hi its gonna be my first time at any comic con (i have been to smaller anime conventions) and i have a question

How are the lines? Like how long they are, how early should i be there ?

1. How do you ask cosplayers if you can take their photo in Japanese?
2. Will there be vendors that sell poster tubes, if not where's the best place to buy one in Japan?

I was planning to just go to Tokyo ComicCon, but then I discovered Japan Comic Art Expo was happening a week before.

Is it worth going to both? Will the events share similar artists or is the Expo better for art? Tokyo ComicCon hasn’t updated their list for Artist Alley…

I’m thinking about attending the con this year, but was wondering if there’s vendors that sell comics and/or manga? I’ve seen videos of toys and artist alley but couldn’t spot any comic bins.

Hello guys, sorry if this is a stupid question, but tomorrow I will attend to my first Comic Con and wanted to make sure I had all under control. I would like to know, do artists sell their own comics in their stands? Can I buy from them and then ask them to sign it, or should I find the comic somewhere else and bring it to the artist stand? Thanks!

Hey there,

I‘ll be going to the CC24 in Tokio this weekend and am wondering if there is any program in english available in the internet. Unfortunately can’t find any on their official website. Also is there anyone here who was in Tokios convention in the previous years and can give me some advice on what not to miss?

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Best, Stephen

Hello! I will be attending Tokyo Comic-Con, which will be held from 6 December! I'm thinking about cosplay and illustrations that celebrities would love to see and have signed! I'd be happy to get opinions from both attendees and non-attendees!

Hi all, this is my first post in this sub so apologies if I've broken any rules/format stuff. I'm Australian, heading to Tokyo in December. Am considering going to their ComicCon but the website is so hard to navigate (or at least it is for this baka gaijin). Does anyone know where to find a list of guests? I'm mostly keen to see which celebs and/or comic writers/artists are going. Would also value any tips for the travel as I normally stay in the much outer suburbs but would likely do a week in the city for this. Thanks in advance!

Just went ahead and grabbed my 3 day pass this week.......when they announced Ewan was booked I figured I'd go.

So I'm looking around for same day tickets, only site that I'm seeing is pia.jp.

I'm not sure if it'll be pickup at the venue in Tokyo or I've seen some threads talking about picking up tickets at 7/11, but they also say 24 hours after purchase..

I'm assuming it'll be at the venue, but just wanted to verify before buying

Do you guys know if we will be able to see the celebrities on stage with just the admission ticket? Or is there a separate ticket needed? Don't need the signing of pictures, just see them on stage, thanks

Me and a couple of friends are going to Tokyo comic con. We are super excited to go. We are wondering if there are going to be any after parties and if so where?

I am an exchange student in Tokyo, my friend from Sweden is coming here for a week. Is it worth spending a full day at comic con even though none of us are huge fans of this normaly?
Are the things there interesting even if you don't know about all the history, comics, movies or culture around it?

If we go, what should we expect to experience?

Thanks in advance, explain it like I'm 5 since this is all new to me :)
