Dunno which is better: wats going on in this vid or the choice of music lol

pixiv desperately needs a lot more new Ogiue art.

Even if only to get "犬姦", "獣姦" and "異種姦" out of the related tags.

Hato doujin at Comiket 81.

holy shit. tell me that's scanned somewhere.

I'm holding out for the canon version.

Well, I like SakiMada too, but because they're both strong-willed people. I'd like to see them get together based on their mutual strength, rather than some sort of seme/uke situation.

Man, we all know Saki x Mada will never happen anytime in the series

I mean, what's in it for Saki? Is Madarame going to suddenly charm her over? I don't think he's really got a chance over Kousaka, who is literally Mr. Perfect. Unless...

Once upon a time, I held out hope for SakiMada. Alas, even my dreams have their limits.

someone tell me if there is or is not nose hair in this before i decide if i should read it

I'm disappointed that you guys didn't update with the latest chapter! Which was apparently released 2 weeks ago! How else will I know unless my bros on the Genshiken imageboard tell me??

http://anonspore.blogspot.com/2012/01/genshiken-chapter-72-volume-11-extras.html

I really enjoyed the 4-komas in the vol 11 extras. I wonder if Del Rey is going to release this in America. Is manga even being published anymore or have they all gone bankrupt?

Anyway, let's talk about this! Is this a sign of the end times of Genshiken? Without Madarame around, it really is the new generation only. I don't know how to feel about this - the dynamic is kind of set between the girls then without the interesting love triangleness of Hato interfering with Madarame. Then again, Yajima seems to have a thing for Hato so maybe there can be something there.

Also I like how the 4komas are basically about how much Susie loves Ogiue. So cute.

>>3320
What kind of world do you live in where less than 24 hours = 2 weeks?

I don't think that Madarame is going to exit stage left just because he said so. It's a sign that he's finally trying to move on past Saki like Keiko told him, but I don't think he'd succeed without some actual resolution courtesy of Saki herself. Hopefully that comes with the school festival.

>I wonder if Del Rey is going to release this in America.

Actually, Kodansha set up an American label that took over Del Rey Manga about two years ago, which makes it more likely than not.

So, re-reading the chapter where Ogiue's friends from her high school come to her circle to buy her doujins, I get the feeling that her friend Nakajima had a crush on Ogiue or something. Maybe it was obvious to others but I didn't get it until reading it now. Also when she mentions something about Makita, it seems like she was hinting that he was getting married or at least over the trauma of women? Either way, it's interesting to see.

SO MANY LAYERS, GENSHIKEN

73 is here. Time for more flashbacks.

Also, I've already been wanting to mention this for a while, but I'm really glad Kio Shimoku enjoys playing with facial expressions so much.

>>3310
okay, so after I learned what the word means, why would that be a bad thing

>>3311
I don't like the feeling of being cuckolded.

Anyway, I read it after seeing your thread despite NTR allegations, and I liked it. It has little to no similarities to Genshiken though. The only one is that there is a group of otaku in it. They don't even go out and do otaku activities except for searching for paranormal stuff.

Also do you know where I can get the 8th volume wihtout god-awful typesetting and translation? Preferable the case-dcp ones.

>>3313
I can't find translations of the 7th or 8th volume anywhere. Will probably buy them just so I can see how it ends. I haven't enjoyed a manga this much in a long time.

>>3316
I have a translation of the 7th volume. Its scanned by case-dcp, and is just a scan of the professional translaiton done by yen press, and its actually quite good. I got it off bakabt. I don't think they've scanned the 8th volume yet even though its alreayd translated and being sold. I think the only scans on the net are raws and these shitty ones with times new roman font in capitals, and I don't want to spoil the ending on such a note.

>-Why is Madarame in the Counsellor's office?

Most likely job placement-related business, given that this chapter is close to his graduating.

>-Madarame is astonished when he hears Kasukabe has been playing video games, why do they have two panels focusing on this?

I think it's supposed to be illustrative of Madarame's mind working out the social and emotional ramifications of her open admission. He was getting used to accepting her as the contemptuous ice queen, and it was just easier to cope with that than the possibility that she could become so accessible.

The whole chapter seemed to revolve around that dynamic.

>-What does he mean by 'treading your own thorny path'?

Probably just a cryptic way of referring to his impression of her personality.

>-Why is Madarame in the Counsellor's office?

Madarame is in the counsellor's office to look for job placement/career opportunities in their various resources they have there. He's not in any trouble, he's probably just desperately looking for a job.

> -Madarame is astonished when he hears Kasukabe has been playing video games, why do they have two panels focusing on this?

Like what 3296 said, Madarame could only accept Kasukabe as an "other" of sorts; someone who could never understand otakus, and by framing her like that, he could distance her and keep his feelings for her at bay.

> -What does he mean by 'treading your own thorny path'?

I interpreted that as how he's so conflicted about his own crush on Kasukabe and how he should get over it but can't. It's his cross to bear that he likes her but can't and won't do anything about it or resolve it in anyway - which leads into the later chapter when he's in the room together alone with Kasukabe drinking tea while reads manga again.

Re-reading.

>>3295
Pretty much what >>3297 said. Otaku tend to refer to non-otaku as "normals," and by classifying Saki as such, Madarame was able to lie to himself and think that his crush on her wasn't that big a thing. So when he hears she's tread into territory that blurs that line, he's understandably shocked. His thorny path reference is just him acknowledging he's got a massive crush but he's going to keep it bottled up without telling anyone or getting over it, and suffer alone.

I felt that Chpater 63 was a little slow.. Eh, whatever.

>>3149

>I'd also like to see Katou (the other Manken girl, with bangs hiding her face) come back sometime.

Oh god.. So do I. That scene where she revealed a little bit of her face, I nearly ejaculated in my pants.

err.. where is Genshiken 64?

>>3192
Anonspore is on hiatus until July.

So that mean's he's going to be two chapters behind.

That being said, why is he the only one working on it now? Didn't Mangastream, et al. have their own people doing it?

Yeah, that's a bit odd...
