Pretty funny opening. Gundam, mecha, rofl.

Animation in this episode was HORRID. Even worse than the first episode imo.

Enjoying the series though.

Finally the humor's back. I laughed a lot, good episode. The OP was really nice and I loved the Motteke! Sailor Fuku and Hare Hare Yukai references at the end. And how ironic that Ogiue was the first one to come up with drawn pages. xD

Genshiken is back on the Game :p. Great comedy parts. And some ecchi (Ohno part was unnecessary imho) to fill up :p

Ogiue was well in this episode (and it seems Sasahara has feelings for her)

Sorry to all Ogiue Big fans but this one made me laugh really hard.

The OP was great, the animation decent, but not great. This was a funny episode that was more similar to the first season than the last episode. I cant wait until the next episode. I was thinking about waiting until it was over and then marathoning the series, but I dont have enough self control.

Watched this a few days back, forgot to comment on it here, so is doing so now...

Im actually really dissapointed with this 2nd season so far. Im hardly ever getting a laugh, unlike i did in the 1st season and ova, Animation isnt as good as previous said, 2nd ep made me hate that fat guy that keeps stuttering in his talk with a passion etc... Was hoping for another calmish feeling op, instead i got that... Also would have liked it if they stuck with season 1's ed like they did the ova. Dissapointing me so far...

Hah, definitely love the Gundam spoof OP, especially the effects leading to the "Genshiken 2" logo.

Animation, I would have to say, is lacking...

But for one thing, I was looking forward to a less fast-paced OP like Siing, and the ED, which was just perfect, really didn't mix in well with the OP.

Damnit! Don't die without my permission!

I certainly don't mind the more serious tone in the first two episodes. After all the focus so far is what happens when a bunch of talentless slackers try to actually do something on a deadline and as you can imagine the result is going to be painful to watch. I also liked the new opening and also don't mind the new animation.

The opening made me laugh, so did Ogiue. The rest was so-so. The fighting between Sasahara and the stutter guy annoyed me pretty much and so far this season is a bit of a dissapointment for me, but we'll see how things will become, I'll give the next episodes also a shot.

Yeah he really has turned into an ass.

On the other hand though Sasahara is much better than how he was in the first season and Ogiue is another great addition.

Madarame: " I call to order the first Emergency Comic Fest Counter-Measure: We've Hardly Even Started Meeting"....

Haha, Madarame still rocks. Too bad it seems that he will probably have little focus now. And that not meeting with the deadline is kinda expected from their group but at least they pulled it up (reminds me of my college days.. Haha. Always rushing to meet the deadline and even compromising sleep!!). But anyway, now on to the selling!!!

Reminds me of almost every issue of the campus newspaper we ever put out, including the people who didn't live up to their commitments and forced the editor to do their work for them... Oh well, at least the all-night pizzeria was open at three in the morning when we usually dropped off the pages.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Normally I'm not a dub fan, but what they did with the English version when Kuchiki got back with the food was hilarious.

Somehow, the next episode preview is always the best part in Genshiken...

Watching this one 7 years after it came out, it really reminded me those times, back when Suzumiya and Lucky Star were a big success! (^o^)

Can't believe it's been 7 years already...

Episode that sees a different atmosphere from the usual and the rebirth of Saki.
Narration perhaps less fun, but more serious than usual with the figure of Ogi-chan and Saki is rewriting, are satisfied.
Plot that moves forward in the best way possible, telling the events in a consistent manner and without sweeten situations.
Drawings quite as good quality, nice ending and the fabulous new opening.

Oh man, working with people, trying to keep track of everyone's responsibilities, and making sure everyone is accounted for. I know that feeling too well. Coming off the first season, Genshiken has a heading, and it's rocky as ever. Also, I've never thought about it, but printing doujins must be awkward as hell. Laws and company policies aside, explaining the print job must be murder on your pride.
