Comiket Attendees Line Up to Purchase Arina Tanemura's Cross Ange Doujinshi
posted on by Bamboo Dong
Arina Tanemura, best know for her shoujo series Full Moon O Sagashite and Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, is also a big fan of anime and manga herself. She's an active doujinshi artist, and frequently Tweets pictures of her fanart, including Sailor Moon and Attack on Titan.
Recently, she and doujinshi circle Meguro have been working on "Want To Die x Do Not Want To Die x Will Die," a Cross Ange doujinshi. The anime series is one of the latest offerings from Sunrise, and unlike Full Moon O Sagashite, is known for its fanservice and mature situations.
Here's a poster advertising the doujinshi at C87:

The book was made available at Comiket 87 on December 29. Naturally, lines were long, with buyers stretched across the entire length of the event hall.
種村有菜先生の待機列がおかしなことに…。
しかもあまりの列の長さにブチ切れて怒鳴り散らしているおじさんがいて怖い…(",_')
ツイッターもできないじゃねーか!!とか騒いでるけどそれ列と関係ない… pic.twitter.com/jJf9BNg93q

Fortunately, for anyone who wasn't able to pick up a copy, it'll be available later from Animate.
