Line 110:
** In-universe, Madarame gets involved in both Ogiue's and Hato's yaoi fantasies.
** There's a few moments between Kasukabe and Ohno.
* [[Hot -Blooded]]: Madarame, as voiced by [[Nobuyuki Hiyama]].
* [[Huge Schoolgirl]]: Sort of. Although a university student, Ohno is unusually tall and busty and at the same time shy about her physique. Except when cosplaying.
** Katou, who seems to be friends with Ohno, fits as well, with the other members of the manga club barely reaching her shoulder. She's more of the willowy type.
Line 127:
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: Well this ''IS'' a series about an otaku club, this sort of thing is bound to happen at least once... or a few dozen times.
* [[Language of Love]]: Angela and Madarame.
* [[Last -Episode New Character]]: Ogiue.
* [[Left Hanging]]: The second season of the anime doesn't cover the final arc of the manga, leaving about two and a half volumes' worth of material un-animated. No third season has been announced thus far...
** It's even lampshaded, as the preview for the last episode has Madarame stating proudly "INCOMPLETE ANIME ARE THE BEST EVER!"
Line 174:
* [[Ship Tease]]: The novel has some pretty blatant [[Ship Tease]] for Madarame X Kasukabe.
* [[Show Within a Show]]: ''[[Kujibiki Unbalance]]''
* [[Shout -Out]]: So, so many, often under fake names - ''[[Code Geass]]'', for instant, is "Code Bleed" or something. ''[[Lucky Star]]'' can be briefly seen as a very popular Doujin at Comifes. And there was a hell of a lot of ''[[Guilty Gear]]'' in the first season. This gets switched to ''[[King of Fighters]]'' XI during the three special episodes in between seasons 1 and 2.
** In the very first episode, Tanaka's ringtone is shown to be an 8-bit version of 'Hurry' from the ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' OST.
** Good thing the fansubs offer footnotes about the fake names in the manga and anime.
Line 204:
* [[Tsundere]]: Ogiue, so adorable but so mean too. Poor Sasahara.
** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in the bonus chapter of the final volume.
** As their friendship develops, Saki becomes quite a bit nicer to Madarame, which no doubt helps with their [[Fan -Preferred Couple]] status.
* [[Tohoku Regional Accent]]: Ogiue usually speaks in formal Standard Japanese, but reverts to her native Tohoku dialect when she gets nervous or embarrassed, which only serves to throw her further into panic-mode.
* [[Time Skip]]: A slight one in Chapter 56, which was created and released as a bonus together with the Japanese "Genshiken 2" box-set. The chapter told us what the characters had become, and what's going on the Genshiken club right now.
Line 224:
** Though it also makes sense: {{spoiler|to actually ''pass'' as the opposite sex, one has to not only ''look'' it, but also ''speak'' and ''act'' in a way that epitomizes that gender, down to body-language. This hyper-femininity is presumably what Saki picks up on when she meets him.}}
* [[Yaoi Fangirl]]: Ohno and Ogiue.
** Season two, episode five. Not content with hinting, they ''animate'' Ogiue's fantasies. [[Squick|Be afraid]], [[Guy -On -Guy Is Hot|or not]], [[Crowning Moment of Funny|or collapse from laughter]].
** Incidentally, all the girls who joined Genshiken under Ogiue's tenure of presidency.
* [[Yaoi Guys]]: Well, sort of. Resident yaoi-fangirl-in-denial Ogiue sees one of the other club members pulling another's tie, and gets inspired to draw some ''very'' hardcore yaoi of the two of them. To make things stranger, one of them is actually her love interest. And just to top it off, he didn't mind all that much, even giving her tips on how to make the story better.
