Genshiken 2

새로운 회장은 클럽을 위해 Comifes 벤더 자리를 확보하는 동안 여러 도전에 직면합니다.

Things are looking up for Sasahara as the Genshiken secures a spot among the dōjinshi vendors at the next Comifes, but the devil is in the details as they quickly need to figure out the finer points of actually making one. An unexpected relief comes when Ogiue actually volunteers her services (if in limited quantities), but will the new President have what it takes to stand up to the other obstacles in their way?

7월 마감 임박, 동인지 완수를 위해 동아리 회원들이 분주하게 움직이다

It's nearing the end of July, and with the deadline for finishing their dōjinshi looming, all the club has to show are the two pages drawn by Ogiue. With Kugayama's continued lack of material pushing the deadline (and Sasahara's patience) to the limit, it looks like they'll have to put aside their differences (and their sleep cycles) to get things done on time.

옌시켄 상인들이 옌과 놀라운 손님이 코미페스에 도착할 때까지 판매가 부진하다.

The day of Genshiken's participation in Comifes has arrived, and they are finally set to take their place as a vendor. But despite (or because of) Haraguchi's "blessing," sales are initially slow. Ohno's arrival (in cosplay, naturally) seems to change their luck for the better, but things really get underway with a surprise appearance. How Kasukabe will react to it, however, is another matter entirely. (Source: Wikipedia)

오노와 타나카는 서로에 대한 감정을 다루며 고전하고, 겐시키넨 멤버들은 수줍음을 극복하기 위해 조언을 구한다

Ohno likes Tanaka. Tanaka likes Ohno. Both, however, are too shy, and lacking confidence to make a first move. With the rest of Genshiken in a state of concern and confusion over their relationship, Ohno confides her anxieties to Kasukabe, who suggests a possible approach that may give both of them the courage to confide their affections.

오기에는 사사하라와 마다라메의 민망한 순간이 목격되어, 그녀의 창작 후지oshi 충동이 자극받는다.

Ogiue catches Sasahara and Madarame in an unintentionally compromising position, setting her fujoshi imagination alight with various slash pairings between her fellow club members. She may have just found the inspiration to make a dōjinshi for next summer's Comifes, but her sketch of Sasahara gives Saki other ideas. (Source: Wikipedia)

오기에는 겨울 코미페스에 가면을 쓰고 참석하고 겐시키넨은 행사 준비를 하고 있다

Genshiken is making preparations to go to the upcoming Winter Comifes as a group, but when the other members invite Ogiue along, she adamantly refuses. That doesn't stop her from appearing anyway in the guise of her high school persona to buy all the latest yaoi dōjinshi, but things get complicated as she (literally) runs into the rest of the club.

3년간의 회상을 하며 오노에게 대통령직이 이양되고, OVA로 시즌 1이 마무리된다.

Graduation time is finally upon Tanaka, Kugayama, and Madarame, and with it come emotional reflections on the past three years for the club. The presidential torch is passed on, and a Kujibiki Unbalance OVA finally gives closure to the first season, but what about Madarame's job hunt? And for that matter, what will become of the Genshiken under President Ohno? (Source: Wikipedia)

오노가 겐시켄을 이끄는 가운데, 오기에는 코미페스 데뷔 준비와 쿠치키와의 경쟁이 이어진다

It's the beginning of the school year, and Ohno is planning out her first year as the president of the Genshiken. How will the club change under her cosplay management? Also, Ogiue learns that she's accepted to Comifes and tries to work up the courage needed for her debut. But will the newest iteration of the club sink or swim, and will Kuchiki be Ohno's nemesis, or her unlikely savior? (Source: Wikipedia)

사사하라의 구직은 실패하고 오기에는 창작의 벽이 닥친다

Sasahara's job search is not going as well as he'd hoped; at every turn, his negative portrayal of himself and uncertainty over his own beliefs make companies balk at hiring him. Meanwhile, Kousaka's absence is starting to get to Saki, while Ogiue struggles to draft her Comifes dōjinshi without any interference from Ohno's fetishes. But could Kuchiki be on to something about Sasahara and Ogiue? (Source: Wikipedia)

Comifes 준비에 도착한 미국의 친구들 앤젤라와 스ью

As Ogiue continues her preparations for Comifes, now a few days away, Angela Burton and Susanna Hopkins, two friends of Ohno's from the US show up unexpectedly to come to the convention as well. While the foreign otaku ways of Angela and Sue shake up the (somewhat) peaceful clubroom, perhaps Angela is the "sensible" one when it comes to understanding the feelings of others. (Source: Wikipedia)

사사하라가 오기우에를 Comifes에서 도와주고, 오노와 안젤라는 코스프레를 하며, 스우는 사인된 동인지를 수집한다.

As Comifes starts, Sasahara help Ogiue set up her doujinshi booth. Angela cosplays with Ohno in the costumes Tanaka made for them, while Sue wanders around the convention. Sue eventually obtains one of Ogiue's doujinshi books, and ask her to sign it, claiming it is "real hardcore." At a bathhouse, Ohno wonders why her plan to make Sasahara and Oguie a couple is failing. After Comifes is over, Sue and Angela leave to go back to the United States, with Ohno shipping the massive amounts of doujinshi to them later. (Source: Wikipedia)

사사하라가 커리어 절망에 빠지지만 겐시키넨 멤버들이 tough love를 통해 구직 활동을 다시 시작하도록 도와준다.

Failing continually at his job interviews, Sasahara begins to lose sight of what he's working towards. He finds himself settling to apply for any available opening, and ends up on the brink of giving up altogether. It takes some harsh words and tough love from the rest of Genshiken to convince him to try one more time. And for that matter, how are the other members making out? (Source: Wikipedia)
