An all Kantai Collection (Combined Fleet Collection) doujinshi event only. Begins at 11am and ends at 3pm. For those that is unfamiliar with Kantai Collection abbreviated as Kan Colle in Japan.

Area - Shiga

Sakura High school - Welcome all New Students @ Toyosato Elementary School (2014/05/05)
A K-ON! only event with doujinshi & festival(?) being held. I did not go for this event but one of my friend that went had a very fun time. You were given a rare chance to explore the school where the cast of K-ON! had their fun time playing their songs. It would be a priceless journey for all K-ON! fans. Oh yeah, an advise from my friend, the space seats and space were for children so for adult it would be a squeeze.
Starts: 12noon - 4pm
Address: 〒529-1169 Shiga-ken, Inukami-gun, Toyosato-chō, Ishibatake, 518 Toyosato Elementary School.

Sunshine Creation 63 @ Ikebukuro Sunshine City (2014/4/13)
A doujinshi event at Ikebukuro area, starts at 11am - 3.30pm. It worth to have a good at the artist booth as some of them try to sell the leftover from Comiket or could not participate on the event. I had been there once two years ago, the crowd is smaller than Comiket so for those that hate long queue then it is for you. The contents in the booths were mostly for guys. (Come early if you want the good stuffs)
