Genshiken Omnibus
It's the spring of the first year, and Kanji Sasahara has a dilemma. Should he declare his love for manga and anime fandom by joining an otaku club, like he has always wanted to? Is he prepared to deal with the social stigma of being an otaku? Meanwhile, Saki Kasakabe has her otaku conundrum. How can she turn her boyfriend, anime fanboy Makoto, into a normal guy? Kanji follows his heart, as does Saki. When Kanji and Makoto join Genshiken: The Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture, Saki chases Makoto through the club's various activities, from costume playing and comic conventions to video gaming and anime model figures. Saki finds otaku to be more than she imagined, but not necessarily in a good way. Includes special extras after the story!
