I had a hard time waking up to get to Ōdaiba, I went there with the Rinkai line, a much cheaper way from Shibuya to get there. As soon as I arrive I could tell the event was more familly/children like than for fashioned teenagers but I could have guessed anyway. I got to the Tōkyō Big Site and there was other exposition going on (such as the Asian dog show, motorbike show), the TAE was just on 2 hall in the East wing, much smaller than the "Comic Market". Once inside, the place was pack with all kind of people, lot of kids but a good range of "otaku", there was different exposion about the Japanese anime history and everything else was just commercial stands from different anime company, TV channel and shop. There was ome interesting news, nice goodies to get for free and a couple of nice hostess. I would think if you are no professional this exposition is a level under the "Tōkyō Game Show" and the "Comic Market".
