| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I kinda like this character from the episode:  So cute. What an episode. Yajima sure ran into something awkward there at the end lolol. The ending was funny with the hand chop: :P |
 |
 Sue ftw :3 |
|
| Kikuchi getting choked twice, shouldn't be surprised that he'd enjoye it XD Stark700 said: Sue ftw :3 BEST PART. And was that Sue in a Mawaru Penguidrum cosplay during the preview? CAN'T WAIT. |
| Another trap lol. Yajima: "Don't underestimate a fat chick's muscles!" lol |
 |
| Can we rename it: Fuyoshi only? I don't read the Manga, but the Manga is the same... I guess I never start reading it because it will be like this now. Where are the normal Otaku?! |
| Kuchiki trying to rape Madarame was hilarious but Sue saved the day like a boss. Great episode one of the funniest so far. Yajima at the end lmao. |
| Another hilarious ep XD Sue ftw as usual <3...Poor Madarame. And why just why?? Hato is just too cute >_< Poor Yajima...seeing it wide and clear XD And that reverse trap imouto O_O...didn't expect that one lol Nxt ep...a lot of cosplay references...Bon-chan!! XD |
 |
GREW said: .... Where are the normal Otaku?! You might want to think a little bit about what you just asked.... I'm actually enjoying this glimpse of fujoshi life, somewhat to my surprise. Is it too early to start shipping Yajima x Hato? |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| I have absolutely no interest in Fujoshi but this anime is quite entertaining and I do not remember the last time I LOLed so much as with this episode, felt bad for Madarame, running at full speed to protect his virginity was hilarious just to name one scene. I am in love with Sue, I suspect she is a genius loli but she is awesome (I am no into lolis), there is an even more awesome scene in the manga that will probably not be animated (this season at least) but after seeing her punch kukichi in the face I feel sorry for any sexual predator that approaches her in a dark alley, he will not know what hit him. |
| To cheer up Hato, who is embarrassed about what he said, Sue suggested about Ogiue's experience. Wow @ that chubby girl for helping Hato out, and after that. That first grader girl's sister that looks like a guy helping out with getting nampa guys out. lol @ wanting to see Hato's secret. KOIBANA3? |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
GREW said: Where are the normal Otaku?! Your "normal otakus" fantasizing about lolis, panty shots, fan service and yuri are no better than fujoshi fantasizing about the same things but for guys and shotas. I guess you don't know any fujoshi friends? It sure does help to have fujoshi friends to actually understand what this is all about. I never understood the disdain the "normal otakus" have against fujoshis. What is "normal otaku" anyway? Can you define that for us please? eminagnam said: They were still talking about the trap. It's getting boring. He's the new main character of this series, just like Sasahara in the first series. |

| That end at the bathroom was so hilarious. And maybe it is not too late to ship for Hato and Yajima. Yajima has seen a "lot" of Hato's already. Haha, lucky girl. I was kinda sad to learn that Rika's sibling is a girl instead. She looks cute as a guy and Yajima's reaction at 1st before she learned she is a girl is funny. |

FYI fujoshi are normal otaku. In case by "normal otaku" you mean the more general oriented anime or male oriented anime fans, who play eroge, etc, they were(they're still appearing occasionally in Nidaime) at the previous seasons of Genshiken or previous chapters of manga, before it got the name Genshiken Nidaime. |

Fujoshi aren't "normal" otaku, and neither are male otaku nor casual female otaku either, i guess by "normal" otaku he means the less hardcore ones who just read manga, watch anime, and maybe attend some events for fun once in a while, without the hardcore fetishes and maniacal traits the actual otaku have. |

By that you mean casual anime and manga enthusiasts. Otaku is a quite hardcore word by itself. There is no "normal" otaku since otaku itself implies something is outside the norm of society already. Also, Genshiken never had "normal" otaku. They are all pretty hardcore, even in the first season. |

Yup that's exactly my point. there is no "normal" otaku, these people are by no means "normal", not because they're hardcore fans of anime and manga, but because of their you know...weird hobbies and behaviour, and that includes all otaku regardless of gender. i mean ffs, does any one in the cast seem "normal"? none of them, they're all friggin weird that if a normal person were to hang out with them, he'd feel disgusted to the core and would probably be traumatized and never approach anime or manga or anything similar ever again. heck i'm actually wondering how the cast feels when they play these characters having to say all those creepy lines, no wonder most of the cast are unpopular voice actors, i imagine popular ones would feel very awkward playing these characters (not that the current ones are comfortable either LOL) EDIT: btw, this a late night anime, right? |

| Very funny episode. |
 |
| Defiantly one of the rare instances where a series stays consistent in quality throughout each season. |

Okay with 'normal' I mean male otaku. I can't find it to be fun with all those seme and uke pairings and stuff. It's not my thing. I mean, I find the old people in the first two Genshiken better. Okay the 2nd genshiken season, where almost every male member is gone, were Ohno started to create a cosplay circle, I thought this might be still okay. But then SEME AND UKE. Seme and Uku everywhere. I can't stand those gay pairings stuff, even yuri. Also I think Genshiken used to talk a bit to the problems of each. I don't know how the Manga is, but it seems they stopped and focus now to be more fun. Which... is about seme and uke again... Guess I pretty much wasted my time watching both season in a row to get this fuyo stuff. My mistake. |

| This show is so cringe worthy in a good way. I did not think I would like this if they focused primarily on Hato and the group of fujoshi girls at first, but I'm enjoying it a lot. This season has WAY more actual refrences then the previous ones from what I remember. They finally made a Free! joke, however it was very subtle. Sue in Penguindrum cosplay and Rika as Bayonetta! Looking forward to that. |
Downgrade355 said: heck i'm actually wondering how the cast feels when they play these characters having to say all those creepy lines, no wonder most of the cast are unpopular voice actors, i imagine popular ones would feel very awkward playing these characters (not that the current ones are comfortable either LOL) If you check online information you will realize that the prior two Genshiken series had very popular voice actors, all of them were changed for Genshiken Nidaime. Prior genshiken had it's share of embarrasing lines, so I think they got a cast of young voice actors because their salary is a lot smaller than those with 10+ years of experience and Genshiken has never been a blockbuster money cow like Fate/series. |
rodac said: Is it too early to start shipping Yajima x Hato? It's not to early to start a 'ship! If you're the first one to get it floating you can be like its Commodore or something. mangamuscle said: I have absolutely no interest in Fujoshi but this anime is quite entertaining Neither am I. That being said, one of the reasons why I like this season, and the previous seasons of Genshiken is that it is a slice of life, drama, romance anime yes, but it is also a study of Otaku culture as well. The first two seasons gave those who aren't familiar with its Japanese version a glimpse into that world. In that same light, that is what the restart in the Genshiken Manga does as well as this accompanying Anime. |

Many of these are younger talents. They have to prove themselves first. |

MeOtaku said: i prefer something like Sue x Mada...GIVE MADA SOME PROPER LOVE. I see what you did there, Sue goes on top (no doubt riding him like a wild cowgirl), Madarame is forever a bottom! >_< |

"Normal: b : conforming to a type, standard, or regular pattern"(Merriam-Webster) A standard madman would do mad things, but he would always be weird. By your logic I can never use the term "normal madman", I'm pretty sure you don't get to define the standards of English or Japanese language. A normal fanatic, a normal otaku is extreme and weird. If you aren't weird you aren't otaku. I think you're just intolerant, or well most people are anyway. I wouldn't mind dealing with any characters from Genshiken, except for a few like that bitch who tortured Ogiue. The only reason they have unpopular voice actors is because of their low budget. Most voice actors, even popular ones, would do much creepier things. GREW said: Okay with 'normal' I mean male otaku. I can't find it to be fun with all those seme and uke pairings and stuff.

Personally I find fujoshi reactions funny. |

| traps traps traps! for some what reason Im not annoyed with it but I do like it. |
Downgrade355 said: heck i'm actually wondering how the cast feels when they play these characters having to say all those creepy lines, no wonder most of the cast are unpopular voice actors, i imagine popular ones would feel very awkward playing these characters (not that the current ones are comfortable either LOL) Even the veteran seiyuu get some crazy lines from time to time. At Otakon last weekend, someone asked Tomokazu Seki to recite a line he had from Full Metal Panic where his character says he has used a condom before (...to carry water in when you are in a jungle). His reaction was a very astonished "I said that? Really?", followed by "I've used condoms before, but not for that!" |
| Kuchi x Mada was I N S A N E! Although that was the high point, I liked Yoshitake's sibling Risa appearing as well Fooling us for being a guy was another great twist |
| Crossdressing girls now? Well okey... some new characters why not, anyway lets see what's next! |
 |
| I was about to drop this after ep 2 (too much focus on the trap) but I glad I didn't. This episode was terribly funny, and the trap is not the only focus of the show anymore. |
| Damn! Sue can punch! Don't mess with her! Man this show sure is bringing in traps everywhere. I really thought that was her older brother but no it was her younger sister by two years! Forget our memories! Good episode. |

| The surprises are not lacking, although it may seem otherwise, seen as the first part takes place. The narrative in fact picks up where it left off the previous episode and then gradually develop further horizons are not limited to using the usual cast, but by adding another. The plot seemed to offer new opportunities in the first stage of the story, but it comes back to take advantage of the new generation and to give new characterization; the fact is that even the anonymous Rika aquisisce thicker now. Drawings and animations that are always at a level more than adequate as quality. Soundtrack good. |
 |
| What's even going on anymore. No, I mean, I understand what's going on, but...Oh forget it. I'm just going to go along with whatever's happening. |
| For the 1st to 6th episode , this episode is the worst for me. |
| Kuchiki lost his mind, if he ever had any, he almost kissed Madarame, he likes being chocked,lol. Yajima saw "it". |
 |
| Madarame really running away for his life Probably will never return to clubroom even if Saki is there xD Yajima and imouto saw it xD Next ep, I saw Bayonetta cosplay xD This new season seems to focus on those three new characters It's not bad.. But I want to see the old characters more :( |
"Signature removed"   |
| Man, that was the funniest episode so far! The way they hid the drawings from Madarame, and then how Kucchi wanted to be his top - priceless... Also, a shota-loving fujoshi! Finally, a character for me :3 |
| What is Kuchiki ever doing? I guess he's just embarrassed about the talk of tops and bottoms? Not only just the first scene, but then he snaps and tries to force himself on Madarame all for the sake of Hato. What a true simp. I'm not sure he can go any lower. Seems like Risa might be the perfect match for Hato. Gotta love Rika's attempts at peepin'. |
 "...Is your mother worried? Would you like us to assign someone to worry your mother?" |
| i dont like traps and gay |
