LOL@Yajima Glad their efforts bore fruit. Poor Ogiue. And LOL@the gag of three episodes rule in PV.

It was enjoyable though it still felt like a show about the trap.

I am sure that director Mizushima put those GirlPan and Azazel-san references there.....

And what else? Old stuff like K-On, Panty and Stocking, Madoka.. but also newer stuff like Muromi-san...

Some of the references can be rather obscure: Comic Master J, Mitsuyoshi, Cross Day...

On the other hand, the Abenomics joke is so timely and funny !!!

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

It makes sense since the end of last season.

Does this take place 1 or 2 years after last season?

Oh Sue, why are you so adorable and tsun? I definitely enjoy getting to see her more than in the second season.
So it was the first Comi-Fes episode and the finishing of Oguie's project anime too. Sasahara is too smart for his own good, and the perfect boyfriend to boot.

The homage's are definitely making this episode better than it would normally, also a nod to Cuticle and Titan there for those who didn't catch it. Again, I wish that they brought in the old voice actors, as some of the old characters would have connected with me better, but I am not going to stop watching due to that. A line of Angela's was misread, and took away from its innuendo.

The cigarette just rolled from my mouth, :D Anyway, School Days kept dominating the first part; and dat Maria Holic uniform in stock there.

Nice follow-up:





Sue and Yabusaki were awesome in countering that envious and evil bitch.

I give them props for the various and hilarious group reactions.

... Is there really a thing going on b/w the plump girl and Hato-kun or it's just an adjustment tension?

Angela and Ohno as Panty and Stocking was great. Saw the two girls from Girls and Panzer's Pravda (the loli was even riding on the girls shoulders lol). Was Sue supposed to be Integrat Hellsing? Glasses girl does a pretty good Jellyfish Princess cosplay lol. Best though, was Oguie-nyan

The references and cosplay/character homages were at max in this ep!

Only real complaint was the re-appearance of Nakajima (the girl from Ogiue's past who we saw in Genshiken 2) and she revealed quite the bombshell regarding Ogiue's past (that we never got to find out from Genshiken 2 anime). My issue is with this is only the people who've read the manga will know what she was talking about in regards to what Ogiue was like/did, so anyone watching just the anime (either from the previous series or just this new one) may feel a lil' lost with this revelation (esp. with the mention of Makita) though I suspect all this will go into further detail in the eventual release of Genshiken Nidaime no Roku.

Having read the manga, I knew what it was about. But yes, that is a good example of the animating team being a bit lazy and not thinking about first time viewers. Though at least there was some foreshadowing from Genshiken II when Ogiue went into an anxiety attack just seeing Nakajima last time, and that this was a pre-Genshiken event and not a major factor in the current story line.

What I found curious though is:

Ogiue as azunyan was really cute, I didn't recognize the other cosplay

Sad to know Ogiue's past through someone that didn't like her at all

I noticed Season 1 was centered around Saki, OVA Ogiue, 2 Sasahara and second generation evolves around Hato-kun

He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.

Was eagerly waiting for the ep where the club girls would meet male Hato and their reactions met expectations, the atmosphere of the convention was also great, much better than what Arms were giving us before, Sue is as usual cute in this ep.

Another little gem for a TV series started with many flaws, but they are cleverly dribbling, showing a potential for which also I am surprising.
Narrative that deftly mixes carefree moments and funny moments with the most serious and sometimes even a bit dramatic, but as has happened in previous installments, can not exaggerate the negativity of the events; great job.
The simpering view previously, today is even more unpleasant, that bitch!
Nice the many references to other TV series.
Happy to work on this third season of Genshiken, there is the Studio Production IG, the quality is high both in the drawings and in the animations, the sets are excellent and should not be underestimated even Costume Design showing a quality never seen before.
Finally also the soundtrack is of the same level as said previously for drawings and animations.
I am overjoyed!

Nice boat. Really now. Also, traps, cosplay galore, etc.

Also, the Kujibiki Unbalance was offhandedly stated that no one would remember it. Genshiken has always been about Kujibiki Unbalance, so that was odd. Was the CD drama obscure or something? That aside, for a slice of life comedy, I'm surprised to see a lot of effort going into making the convention look really active and in motion. Rather than having still frame shots of the crowd, everyone was moving around. For a second, I thought I was watching Eden of the East or something.

Oh yeah, I spotted what I believe Ohno and Angela in Panty & Stocking cosplay. There was also Azazel-san mixed into the crowd, but once again, I probably missed a bunch.
