I know, it’s Sunday. My original plan was to wait until BUTAOTOME would have announced their Air Comiket 2 plans. However, the 3 members act on Twitter as if there is no event (Air Comiket is not a “real” event, so I don’t really blame them), so I said “fuck it”, and decided to write this post now.
