Top creepy otaku manga Genshiken is to receive a new anime adaptation, covering its second post-hiatus incarnation and new cast of characters, it has been announced.
Amongst fans a certain amount of trepidation has attached to the amount of material available to be adapted and whether any remaining material from the first manga will be used, but otherwise there seems to be a great deal of anticipation.
But the manga is so much better than the anime… I think I’ll just keep reading and adding books to my little Genshiken shrine.
A NEVERENDING OGIUE
Wait…did Madarame become a teacher?
No, he got a job really close by to the school and still hangs out at the club once in awhile. He’s actually still a major character.
Actually, now that I think about it, in the same way Anakin Skywalker became the center of the six Star Wars movies despite not being a protagonist in most of them, Madarame has become the center of both of the manga series.
I hope they pick up where they left us and don’t skip straight to second season. I can’t wait. Now if they’d just finish Saki.
yyessssssssss
I’m glad we’ll have more of the series. One thing I would like to see them adapt is why Oguie had so much difficulty fitting in and why she felt uncomfortable around yaoi even though she secretly liked it – that’s something the first season never revealed.
