Either it goes on at big site in the summer or it doesn't happen at all, I think.
Yeah, the logistics of Comiket are just mind-boggling: no wonder the staff all cheer at the closing announcement on Day 3.

According to one blog post I read, the law might not impact the doujinshi scene as much as we've feared:

2nd Update: Brian Ruh on Twitter has pointed out that this Ordinance focuses on companies and their access to distribution, not creators, so at least for the moment, Comiket and other markets are not targeted. Creators of doujinshi already are required to label anything explicit with 18+ warnings, so there is unlikely to be an immediate backlash there.
I guess time will tell...
