Cute， funny， raunchy， and awkwardly charged in a way that only a dramatic slice-of-life about giants nerds could be。

I hate to say it， but this series is slowly morphing into a story that I'm losing interest in。What I loved about the original Genshiken was that it was something that I could easily relate to。 A bunch of college guys sitting around between and after classes talking about comics， video games and anime。 It's something that I used to do when I was in college， which is why I loved the series so much。However， now the series is really just about a bunch of girls sitting around talking about Hato's cro I hate to say it， but this series is slowly morphing into a story that I'm losing interest in。What I loved about the original Genshiken was that it was something that I could easily relate to。 A bunch of college guys sitting around between and after classes talking about comics， video games and anime。 It's something that I used to do when I was in college， which is why I loved the series so much。However， now the series is really just about a bunch of girls sitting around talking about Hato's cross-dressing。 Why he does it， what he gets out of it， trying to get him to stop， why he can draw better when he's cross-dressing， etc。 It's annoying because it seems like that's what this entire volume is revolving around。 Oh and they kinda touch on the fact that they're trying to do a manga for an upcoming school festival。 I would have enjoyed the story much more if that could have been the main focus for this volume。Then again they did do that exact thing in the last season with Sasahara getting the manga together in time for the Comic-Fest， so I can see why they didn't want to do the same storyline twice。Also Kuchi has gone from being a delightfully quirky character to someone who is just annoying and is bordering on harassment when he interacts with the women in his club。 He really needs to go。The artwork is still good， and we still get to see the great characters of Madarame and Sasahara now and then， and it's good to see that Madarame is looking to move on with his life and separate himself from his old college。 But this volume just wasn't up to the standards that I have come to expect from this series。 。。。more

This part is as boring and pointless as the first part。。。😟😴💕📖📖

I'm hoping that ending eventually leads into backstory for Hato， he's one of my favorites from this "season"。 Besides Ogiue， of course， but she was already my favorite。 I'm hoping that ending eventually leads into backstory for Hato， he's one of my favorites from this "season"。 Besides Ogiue， of course， but she was already my favorite。 。。。more

We get some interesting character developments in this volume。 I'm particularly interested in seeing how Hato's art skills develop， and how he overcomes his artistic hangups。 We get some interesting character developments in this volume。 I'm particularly interested in seeing how Hato's art skills develop， and how he overcomes his artistic hangups。 。。。more

Still as much fun as ever。 Shimoku has an eye for detail and rarely lets the geek humor devolve into caricature。 The characters feel real and the humor a natural outgrowth of that reality。 Good stuff！

Someone seriously needs to have a sit-down with Hato and talk out his obvious gender & sexuality confusion。
