There was actually a pretty decent chunk of Genshiken 1 not adapted in the anime. Enough for at least half a cour I'd think, certainly more than one or two episodes. It was mostly Ogiue development too, so it will be disappointing if the rest of Genshiken 1 doesn't get adapted somehow.
I'm a lot less enthused about an adaptation of Genshiken Nidaime. It's missing that special something that Genshiken had. The new characters are not that interesting, perhaps because other than Hato they've had no development. And Hato is major part of the problem I have with Genshiken Nidaime. There's way too much focus on him to the exclusion of the other characters. Even Ogiue gets shunted to the background thanks to him. There are other characters with potential (I'd like to see more Yajima in particular), but they are pretty much ciphers thanks to Hato. And why does every single female character have to be a BL obsessed fujoshi (except Saki, who barely appears anyway)?
