I can't believe how annoying that new guy is. The one that is a HARDCORE Vegetarian/Vegan/None meat eating weirdo. I hope he leaves soon™....i.e. the next episode.

I agree though...Ohno looks super kawaii when drunk. ^^

It's too bad the new guys got scared off... they were interesting characters. Especially the guy who would randomly sing anime theme song out loud in public... Maybe we will see them around again.

The preview... a tsundere nekomimi childhood-friend maid with bandages... seems like Sasahara needs to watch Strike Witches. :-P

Well it was fun to see the crew going out to drink, well not too sure about the new guys. One is a straight weirdo and the other one seems to be into anime because "it's in" and he wants to get the girls. :P

Ohno was hilarious this episode. I also like Saki's facial expressions; the art style is simple but conveys emotions surprisingly well.
Like most others, I strongly disliked the new guys, they were plain annoying. They did give me few laughs though.
Summa summarum, another great episode.

Aha! Kikuchi is here! He can be annoying, but I think that's the point, he manages to out-otaku the Genshiken!

I mean, we've all staggered home drunk at 2 in the morning singing anime themes right? Right?

Y'know, I cant remember the other guy from the manga, but, meh. I thought that Kikuchi joined the same time as another member, a particularly talented at drawing member!

Oh well, I'll prob rewatch s2 when I've watched this. Tell a lie, I'll look for the OVA's!

Outta those 2 "new guys" I'd rather have the (whatever his name was) come back rather than annoying ass Kuchiki (course, the other guy would prolly be one of those club members that always tries to sleep with any and all girl members, so at that point, it would be more like an American anime club, amirite?)
Also, why does Kuchiki hate fried chicken?
And also, we need more drunk Ohno in these eps...

EP 7 I LOVEEEE this showw!

It's amazing, but we men truly don't see how nerve wrecking we behave sometimes - that is until we see others doing it (on tele)! Or until our women snap off... lol
I love it when they are all drunk and Ohno wants to carry on and Kohsaka invites them all to his place! Saki's ears could have popped off! - I think she'll end up strangling the guy the guy you know!

Bleh, those two new guys are pretty annoying, especially "Kucchi!" Glad they didn't join. Kind of a bland episode, I found myself enjoying the Kujibiki Unbalance parts more than the actual show. And that fat ass from the manga club didn't even wash his hands, what a pig.

And maybe it's just me, but I'm glad they kinda put Sasahara to the side and focused on Saki more in this series so far. He's just so boring...

Time passes and comes the time to welcome the new recruits and to leave the witness to others, this is the gist of the plot.
Sympathetic narration that adds further characterization of the protagonists, Saki although not to see is loyal to the club and succeeded in its intent to hunt newcomers.
Which are really irritating and not dedicated to the cause which aims to pursue the club.
Too bad that the drawings are really horrible.

This is my favorite episode from S.1 Not really sure why.
I haven't said it yet, but I love this shows OP song.
Kucchi is annoying but his reaction after he comes back from the bathroom is hilarious. I did a spit take on that.

For all his abrasiveness I prefer Kucchi to the other guy, who just came off as a complete poser and one of those dime store D-bags pretending because it's cool to be Otaku at the moment. DUde was a punk his entire time at the restaurant.

Drunk Ohno... comedy gold.
