But fair enough. I think in a discussion of chapter, it's best to focus on the information given, and not be too strongly convinced from information that's gathered by guesses. You know what I mean? The chapter was a conclusion to Madarame's situation. He can move on now. Whether or not there will be developments for Saki later on is complete lack of evidence right now, except for the Spotted Flower (or what I like to call, official fanfic ) manga. It's not something that should wrap around your head at this point. Bring it up again when there's actual plotline suggesting it that way. As for now, it's clear this was unloading baggage of Madarame. (Too bad he was too much of a dork to do it himself. )

Why do you keep calling him Koi? Quote:
Also, some of you are talking about character compatibility.How about this? List the current couples in the series, not your ideal couples, I mean the ones that have actually happened. List them and spell out everything that makes them compatible. It might prove that Kio actually does follow a pattern, or it might not. It'd be nice to have future reference though. One more thing. I hear people talking about how much longer they think Nidaime is going to last. Personally I think, and hope, that it'll last just as long as the original, if not longer. |

Since it's been the main relationship of the story until now, perhaps Kio simply desires to differentiate it from the others by portraying their relationship in a more realistic fashion, along with all the minor problems that come with it. Quote:
It's really not indisputable, since I don't see a weak relationship at all. I see a flawed one, with several bumps along the way, but I definitely don't interpret the very few moments that have dealt with their relationship as a sign that they're incompatible. Quote:

Yet, despite that, there had to be some form of a romantic connection beyond the basic, friendly compatibility for any of those relationships to occur. That's what I think is, and always will be, missing from Saki's side of the equation. Quote:
And, even if it does somehow happen, Kio would then have to portray Saki liking madarame in a believable manner and I just don't see how that's possible at this point in time, slightly due, aside from all the reasoning I've already mentioned, to the absence of any chemistry between them, aside from that of being rather good friends, and, in this case, unlike a few of the other established relationships, I think that the "status quo" of just friends will remain. Quote:
Basically, what it all comes down to, is that I've never seen the potential for a Madarame x Saki "relationship" as anything more than blatant teasing. From Madarame's perspective, it could seem more significant as an eventual part to play in the story, but I really do think that this latest chapter has concluded that teasing for good, and Madarame's decision to finally move on will be a lasting one, and, essentially, I don't foresee a significant revisiting of this topic within the story. |

So apparently Nidaime is getting an anime adaptation:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...nga-gets-anime ...Which is an incredibly dumb idea, since the original anime failed to cover like the entire last third of the manga, whose events Nidaime is a sequel for and are constantly referenced in it. How are they, for example, going to animate Madarame's confession to Saki in Nidaime without first animating the original "Confession" chapter, which is vital to Nidaime's "Confession Part II"? And hell, what about Sasahara and Ogiue's relationship, which didn't even get to happen in the original manga's anime adaptation? Will they just be together out of nowhere in the Nidaime anime? And Ogiue's issues will all have been solved off-screen too? Etc, etc, etc. So yeah, I don't see how they can work this out into something satisfactory, but we'll see. |

Refresh my memory please, how did the second season of Genshiken ended again? Didn't Sasahara end up with Ogiue in the end?
Anyways, they remedy not introducing Ogiue by the end of first season by releasing OVAs prior to the 2nd season, so I guess we can expect that this time as well.

It ended with Sasahara getting a job as a manga editor. He and Ogiue were already a little closer by then but certainly not going out yet.
So they still had to animate their trip to Karuizawa (hot springs, etc.), Ogiue's backstory, Sasahara and Ogiue getting together and dating for the first time, Angela and Sue's return, Madarame's "Confession", etc. So yeah, OVAs to cover such events before animating Nidaime would be ideal, but after it's been so long since the original Genshiken anime series ended (second season was completed a little over 5 years ago), who knows if they'll bother and consider it worth the risk. |

Chapter 84 is out and it reveals that Nidame is getting a anime but everyone already knows that, what's truly interesting about the chapter is the harem route lol.
Spoiler for chapter 84:
