Genshiken

Watching this for the first time. I feel really bad for Mada-bro. He's just awkward as fuck and doesn't know how to read people and express himself.

Also, does this blonde faggot ever stop being such a boring little shit? He's like a bad self-insert in a show with a realistic feel.

just don't watch Genshiken nidaime

Why not? I'm having a good time with this. Is Nidaime a big drop in quality?

just don't do it i'm making you a favor

user, you're making me curious enough to want to watch it.

just remember it was your fault

This guy is dumb, don't waste your breath.

If you are going to anyway then read the manga after genshiken and not watch nidaime. The transition is way better and you dont miss the final arc of the first generation.

I haven't watched the anime so I don't know if they fucked Naidame up in the adaptation, but the manga is fine. It is fairly different, and in in some (pretty big) ways less realistic so I can see why fans of the original would be put off by it, but its still good.
I think the main reason it gets shat on by Sup Forums is because it's mainly about fujoshi, who generally aren't looked upon very kindly around here.

After careful reconsideration I've decided against it.

I was talking to the guy that recommended this to me in the first place, and he echoed the same sentiment as you guys.

He also told me to read Spotted Flower after I'm done with all the episodes. Is that good?

It's nice. Actually its what got me to read Genshiken. I found Spotted Flower not knowing what it was and after reading it I looked into it and ended up reading Genshiken.

Right, so I'll ignore Naidame and jump straight into Spotted Flowers. Thanks anons.

>but the manga is fine

They turn Madarame into a cock loving faggot though

>implying
You obviously don't browse the manga threads. Most of the complaints weren't targeted at the fujoshi, rather it was at a certain faggot.

>most recent manga development
>continuing the status quo
>ended the harem route
>gay shit denied

What the fuck is happening

The anime is ok, the problem is the jump between anime genshiken and anime niidaime so you really feel the change, in the manga is way better done (and you have the end of ogiue arc too)

Its the trap fault, the guy was just 1 step from being a fucking hideyoshi

Hato ruined all of the nidaime and the manga for me, it seems to only want to focus on him, and changing the orientation of a pre-established straight character was the last straw.

To people not caught up, hato is going to get with the fat girl.

Did they end that horrible fujioshi arc?

Their club went to absolute shit once most of the original guys left.

Exactly what happened to my college anime club.

>listening to these retards
>not watching because recommendation
>cant decide for yourself
What the fuck, its not that bad. Just fujos in the club doing fujo things and madarame being a retard around the club.

he's that "otaku that doesn't look or act like an otaku"

lot of otaku cliques have those

Is it just me, or did that black haired dude get phased out? I'm nearly n the middle of the series, but I thought he'd be the main character at first, and it just focuses on Madarame and Saki.

Pretty much everyone in the original series except for Madarame and any characters with a vagina disappear and never appear again.

the MC of the show moves around a lot

black-haired guy's dilemma is that he couldn't find fellow people who share his interest but now that he has they focus on the dilemma of other people which hasn't been resolved

Kinda funny how his arc was solved in three episodes.

Nidaime is shit because of Hato, not because hes there mind you but because nidaime literally becomes about him, even the parts that have to do with Madarame have to do with Hato. All these new characters added and the anime does nothing with them.

The manga is even worse because they literally make madarame gay for Hato.

his girlfriend will be the MC after Saki and Madarame

>(and you have the end of ogiue arc too)
That's what were OVA's for.

At least that arc is over.
Madarame should have chosen Sue but I'm kinda okay with him being with no one

But Nidaime has that good episode with Saki and Madarame. I think it's worth to watch just for that.

they should make a spotted flowers anime
fat fujo is hot af
hato becomes a hot woman
madarame marries his waifu and has a kid on the way
how could it fail?

A little too porny.

But it was a great story. I like how it adresses the fact that Madarame still has an inferiority complex over Saki's previous relationship.

Hato drama is tiring seeing the manga is a monthly but dismissing all the other characters interaction and shit is gay itself. Let the faggot OP drop the continuation if he cant stand the gay watching it.

So Spotted Flower is a sequel/what if/alternate universe/ship tease?
