In the "Akihabara Virtual" space, a virtual reality reproduction of the real Akihabara neighborhood, participants were able to visit the event from their smartphone or PC, as well as from virtual reality devices for free and without waiting times. Visitors enjoyed new doujinshi work, limited edition merchandise, and interactions with other people. Products may be purchased via digital download or mail order.
Additionally, the 60 restaurants and e-shops that actually exist in Akihabara lined up in a row in the virtual space to hand out shopping coupons to visitors. Even in the current health situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic that makes it difficult for people to go out and visit the place, this virtual event provided an opportunity for stores to maintain contact with their customers.
Finally, thanks to the success of this event, a second edition entitled Comic Vket 2 has already been announced for early 2021.
