Really a scene from 2021? Aqua Plus, MinatoSoft, VA, Nexton, and other bishojo game makers of all time had a blast! Company Booth Report Part1 [Comic Market 103 Special Edition].

Comic Market 103, one of the world's largest subculture festivals, is currently being held at Ariake Big Sight in Tokyo for two days from December 30 (Sat.) to 31 (Sun.), 2023.

Comic Market is often thought of as a place for the presentation of doujinshi and cosplayers, but it is also a place for subcultural expression, with a wide variety of circles and companies participating.
In this issue, Akiba Research Institute will report on our encounters with various manufacturers on the corporate floor.

As this was the first Winter Comic after the Corona disaster, the number of visitors seemed to have returned to the pre-Corona level. In particular, the corporate booths that we covered this time were so busy that there was no place to step. I am sure that I am not the only one who felt as elated as Ramba Ral!

As an old man of the generation, I was impressed by the vigor of the booths of bishojo game makers who were active in the 2000s. In this article, we will focus on the booths of these bishojo game makers.
