Okay. Let's set the scene. The location is Tokyo Big Sight, a collection of halls and buildings relatively close to the giant Gundam. It's August 11, 2019, hottest time of the year in Japan.

The temperature reads 35 degrees Celsius (over 95 degrees Fahrenheit), and I feel like I'm trapped inside a pitbull's hot, wet mouth.
