THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
Hato already got his own room to change. Freshmen are having fun at his new place. With their suggestion, he called and heard that sempai is sick. He went to care for him. Wow, the sister of main character from previous series is moving to next door to Hato?

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!!

LOL, can someone actually get sick by showering with only just one hand? Anyways, funny chapter. Sue was awesome as usual and I liked the talk about real life.

I really don't get it either. What does "showering with only one hand" means, actually? Sounds like some dirty slang for masturbation...

Weeeell, anyway, very cool chapter. Nice to see the Fresh(wo)men trio put on the spotlight again. Gotta love Yoshitake's wit and smugness. What she said about Hato and Madarame is actually pretty solid, though I'd be a bit frustrating if Hato was to stop his/her courting now, I suppose... I guess she can't really fight her inner fujoshi (as we saw with her suddenly talking about flags).

And hell yeah, the Sue factor! That's some huge developement, and that's exactly what Sue needed. After all, we know pretty well what every other girl thinks about Madarame, but Sue's still kinda a mystery. Can't wait for the next chapters.

Rika with the long range plan to help her friend Mirei. Su, watching over Hato, like a hawk, from above!
The drawing of Rita is made up of so much win! The wait was so worth it.

I am kinda bored with Genshiken. It seems like the story is just going in circles. The only good thing about this chapter is Sue becoming Madarame's neighbor. And Hato is really annoying...Not only does he cockblock Madarame, he can't even decide if he really has sexual feelings for that guy...Sheesh. I mean how many pages have the author wasted just to convey Hato's inner feelings?! It would have advanced the plot further if Hato just groped Madarame but no we get the stereotypical wishy-washy attitude that reminds me of dozens of crappy harem anime.

It would have been 100x better if the story focused more on Yajima or Yoshitake.

LOL I don't think it was implying anything dirty. He can only use one hand because he broke the other during the Comifest. Although I agree with Stark, how does one catch a cold like that? 0_o

And Sue's appearance was just epic! xD

Not sure how one can shower with just 1 hand...but...Challenge: Accepted, i guess?

Anyways, much better chapter since Yoshitake brought up a great point on how if Hato did confess to Madarame, would those two and that relationship ever even work out? I think it was a reminder to the readers that although a big majority of the Genshiken fanbase is shipping for Hato and Mada, the fact of the matter is Madarame most likely has never and will never be into Mada (no matter how feminine he comes off as) But, who knows what direction Kio will take the story in the end...

I also love whatever possible (almost like a sitcom) antics that may now ensue with Sue being Hato's new neighbor, lol.

Think about it in the terms of, having a body part sticking out of the covers while you sleep. Or having the bottom of your feet wet. The body acts and reacts oddly to many things. It's almost asking why do people get sick for being out in the rain. But back to topic. I think he got sick due to not able to wash his arm, sweat, dirt, germs, ect could have caused him to get sick.

But While that has no meaning about the anything, what should be asked is Sue. I feel that she likes hato, or highly jealous.

This is far from going in circles. Like look at Gin no saji. Both anime seasons are lined up to look the same. The only thing different is the intro and outro.And yeah the manga is the same. But I am sure I can make a long list of what things had stuff repeat. Some very popular, "OMG krilin died again.....", and some not so much. Here we are dealing with a person that is male but feels more conferrable as a female. He is noticing that he has deep feelings with some on of the same sex. Now tell me were did this happen before in this series? But your idea is to drop, ignore, or just have a half assed way of wrapping up a story that is strong. I'll admit I am not a fan of BL, but I can say that the story line is strong. Maybe you're just homophobic.

We are dealing with Yajima and Yoshitake. Yajima has a thing for Hato, while Yoshitake has more dept made into her characteristics. If you can't see that then you are not reading nor paying attention. Are you sure you have the correct manga? If you do, then you really should reread the whole thing. You just seem to be the type of person that down grades anything that doesn't suit you, so you'll grab for anything to try to bash it. Even if it doesn't make sense.

In conclusion, you either a homophobic, a person "that can't stand when things don't go their way" aka a spoil brat, and/or lair/bully. Oh also, you're a type of person that can't remember details, even if they are major "in your face" type details. Oh that would be inconsiderate.

Good job at completely making yourself look like a fool by using ad hominem attacks on a simple criticism. Did my earlier post hit a nerve? Well you are a moron for taking an opinion seriously.

No, the story is not going in a circle ...
The last chapter Hato made up his mind that he will accept his own feelings. And this chapter is about how hard this thing will work for Hato in reality really ...

"The Slave is the have-not, the oppressed one with nothing to spare.
But because the Slave is in that despairing situation, having nothing, it can kill the Emperor !"
