Blue Archive didn't have its own genre code at C102, but it accounted for 894 of 1716 entries under code 312 "Games (Net Social)". That was notable enough for it to get its own genre code (336) at C103.
Also keep in mind that code 222 "VTuber" means all VTubers and thus encompasses multiple IPs. No other single franchise had even half the entries that Blue Archive had.

I'd like to know what the actual percentage was. It might be misleading to say this franchise got the most booths (like it's probably less than 50%). I'm guessing around 20-25%

Also Fate doesn't have it's own code, they use the code for Type-Moon for anything Fate.

There is no way in hell any franchise would take up 25% of the tables at Comiket, let alone half. Going off the spreadsheet of the genres in in the original tweet, Blue Archive accounts for barely over 8% of all tables. Comiket, and more broadly doujin culture is far more than self published books on popular works.

Yes over 20% is a gross overestimation, but that's my point. To say one title "has most booths" can be misleading. So even a seemingly small percentage like 8% amounts to well over 1500 circles (probably more than Type-Moon ever got).

There were 23,858 total spaces at C104. Blue Archive occupied 1922 spaces, or about 8%. It's not misleading to say they had the most booths at C104 when they outnumbered every other individual IP by a large margin. (Perhaps you meant to say that they didn't have a majority of booths, but it's virtually impossible for any individual IP to take over more than half of a convention as diverse as Comiket.)

The so-called "Big Three" of Comiket - TYPE-MOON (code 221), Touhou Project (code 234), KanColle (code 331) - had put up even larger numbers at one point. Who knows, maybe Blue Archive can join them in the future (fingers crossed).
