Genshiken

Genshiken (Japanese: ?????) is a manga series by Shimoku Kio about a college club for otaku (extremely obsessed fans of various media) and the lifestyle its members pursue.

The series has also been adapted into an anime directed by Tsutomu Mizushima. The manga originally ran in Kodansha's monthly manga anthology Afternoon from April 2002 to May 2006, and has been reprinted in nine bound volumes. The ninth and final volume was released in Japan in December 2006.A two-part short bonus story was included across both volumes of the Kujibiki Unbalance manga, published 2006/7. In December 2009, a new chapter was released in Afternoon to celebrate the release of the Japanese Genshiken 2 DVD box-set, and in October 2010, the series resumed serialization as Genshiken: Second Season (????????, Genshiken Nidaime).

Chairman of Genshiken:
But how about officially joining Genshiken, huh Katsukabe?

Saki Kasukabe:
Not a chance!

Chairman of Genshiken:
Mmm, well that was quick.

Madarame Harunobu:
Mr. Chairman, there is no way she'll ever join the club, is there?

Chairman of Genshiken:
Hmm... no, and it certainly seems like such a pity to lose you. You so enjoy using this room when we're gone.

Saki Kasukabe:
[gasp]

Madarame Harunobu, Kugayana Mitsunori:
Huh?

Chairman of Genshiken:
You seem so..."at home" in our office.

Saki Kasukabe:
[blushing] What do you mean?

Chairman of Genshiken:
You've been having...

Saki Kasukabe:
[interrupting, whispering to the chairman] Mr. Chairman, the student council thing was wierd enough but how could you've known about this? Is this more than just a coincidence? Do you make it a habit of spying?

Chairman of Genshiken:
[innocently] Why, whatever do you mean, Katsukabe?

Saki Kasukabe:
Thats enough! I made sure we were very careful. But you have spy cameras here, don't you?

Chairman of Genshiken:
Now do you really think I would do that?

Saki Kasukabe:
That would be a bad thing for you to do, bad for me too.

Chairman of Genshiken:
...what a delenma.

Madarame Harunobu:
[confused] What are you doing?

Chairman of Genshiken:
If I were that kind of person there would already be a large number of people irrespective of gender who could no longer attend this school. But there are no such people here, are there?

Saki Kasukabe:
["deer in the head-lights" look, long pause] I'll join the club.

[collective gasp]
