Comedy/2007/College Titles


The nature of a story line are often defined by both the age and issues that the main character has to confront. A student in college would approach a situation very differently than someone in middle-school. This tag is intended suggest that the story is more mature (or perhaps less hormonally driven and spastic) in its nature. Aa! Megami-sama! OVA and Ai Yori Aoshi are both very good examples as to the fun adventures of a college-aged students.

The manga club then pawns off one of its troublesome female members, Ogiue-san. She states she hates otaku, especially female otaku with their "homo" obsession for yaoi and shounen ai materials. Despite this, she's there to join their club. Will Genshiken survive its two newest and strangest members?
