Genshiken

Genshiken, by shimoku kio, is a manga and anime based off a college otaku club in Japan. The main character, Sasahara, seems to be a shy boy unwilling to make his love for anime and manga( and some perverted games ect.) known to anyone but decided to join the otaku club at his school in hopes to make some new friends. Actually genshiken doesn’t really have a main character, it just starts off with this guy. It also doesn’t have much of a plot or story line, its just about following this group of otakus and their little otaku adventures haha but I sure enjoyed it, to get some of the jokes your going to have to be pretty knowledgeable of certain shows, mangas, and games, but its just a really fun manga, I want to watch the anime too but I haven’t gotten around to it.. Uh yea! If you’ve ever read ‘drama con’ (about otakus at a con: but american) you’ll like this too, the hardships and lives of the obsessed, what they go through, its mostly a comedy but it has little splats of romance here and there are just right, lots of cosplay too haha fun stuff :}

I’d say its worth reading, its known for a reason you know
