This reminds me of a drama I watched recently, Akihabara@DEEP. Was a guy in it who made himself a Gundam suit. It was highly amusing. And strangely enough, fit in quite well with the story. (given he was pretty much an eccentric super rich otaku.) I very strongly recommend the show for people who like Japanese live action.

The way I would label it, is Genshiken meets The Goodies. (if anybody is old enough to remember them...) really quite strange, but very good.

Even knowing that the OP is a Gundam parody, I still enjoyed it quite a bit when I saw it for the first time.

I love how Saki is peeling off Ogiue's barriers one by one.

I was laughing my butt off when I saw the OP. This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen lololololwtflol. Good job Genshiken 2. Original frame art by Urushihara Satoshi, wtf LOL.

I'd be watching this a more carefully if it weren't because I already read the entire manga series.

Well, a good opening. Just... strange... Doesn't exactly set the mood for a show like Genshiken...
Otaku...fandom...parody...sounds in mood with genshiken to me ^^

i get it about the mood thing but this is genshiken so im not at all surprised that they do stuff like this...maybe in sasahara's dream

i wonder if we will get a different OP each week

I liked the Gundam OP. Maybe a tad too energetic for the Genshiken, but hey, whatever. It's cool.

I was wondering the same thing, that would be awesome even though it seems a bit of waste in resources.

We can already see that second season has a high budget, though not that high.

Haha what the hell...Gundam parody OP hun...Well I can't say as I was expecting that one.

Ah well as for the episode it had some really great character interactions, which of course is a hallmark of this series. I do however remember this part in the manga made me want to punch Kugayama and that didn't really change in the anime...I guess we can call that a successful job done at translating the material.

The fanservice gave me the urge to go back and rewatch kujibiki hah...Overall im just glad genshi is back though.

If Kujian had this level of fanservice I'd definitely watch it

The (bleeped) "Motteke! Sailor Fuku and Hare Hare Yukai" comment in the next episode preview amused me greatly.

Did anyone catch the Nymphet refrence in the opening?

These guys know thier suffs, I'll tell ya.
Also, Madarame is fighting in Jeeg, which I find humorous.
