Description:
It's the spring of freshman year,​ and Kanji Sasahara is in a quandary.​ Should he declare his love for manga and anime fandom by joining an otaku club,​ like he has always wanted to?​ Meanwhile,​ Saki Kasakabe also has a dilemma.​ How can she turn her boyfriend,​ anime fan boy Makoto,​ into a normal guy?​

Kanji succeeds where Saki fails when both Kanji and Makoto join Genshiken: The Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture.​ Undeterred,​ Saki chases Makoto through the various activities of the club,​ from costume-playing and comic conventions,​ to video gaming and anime model figures - learning more than she ever wanted to about the humorous world of the Japanese otaku.​

Story and art by Shimoku Kio.​
