great episode. It seems to have a different feel to it than the first season, but I still really like it. I'm really looking forward to the oigue arc.

Yeah, It does feel a little different, but I think it's good and it's awesome (as the first season was).

The episode was great. Ohno x Tanaka FTW. :D

Great episode. Finnaly they manage to understand themselves... The last Oono sentence left me a little :O. Still nothing at the beginning of the episode could say that this was going to happen :D

Going by the credits for episode four, you can see that the script for this original episode was wrote by Kio himself, the manga author.



I had a feeling while watching this that it could easily fit into volume four, around the time that we find out about the two --- pretty much a 'behind the scene's'. Brilliant episode, along with Ohno Bra and Underwear, and a kiss scene that makes it easy to believe this is being made by a porn studio.

Next episode, yay for Ogiue's true self.

This was a hilarious episode! It was really entertaining watching Tanaka and Ohno trying to define their budding relationship throughout the episode. How they got together was equally hilarious and entertaining, never in a million would I ever conceive of them getting together over a dirty videogame. It was awkward, clumsy and comical!

I'm in totally agreement! The scene after the outro was hilarious and totally unexpected, at least to me.

There seems to be a consensus that this series have a different feel to the first and I felt that too, but I still like it as much as the first series. I'm looking forward to the next episode!

Would of been a five but to be honest that Kuchiki scene at the end just wasn't that funny. Still character growth+humor=great show.

Some reason I felt this was the weakest episode this season. It was okay. Too much angst and fluff which are not two emotions I normally associate with Genshiken. Also the Kuchicki bit at the end turned me off completely. On the other hand I absolutely cannot wait for the next episode. Best moment in the manga, ever!

this episode is so ecchi.. to the point of being close to hentai.. kidding.. just a lot of it up to our imagination but it's an exciting episode coz it's like waiting to happen & we all know it's going to happen & yet haha.. nvm..

Contrast to the next episode 5... was it done to spice up the anime? seems like some of you are saying that the manga isn't the same? i've no idea man.. i don't read the manga

I was really on the fence about this episode. I'm really picky about non-yaoi relationships in anime, and I think that Tanaka and Ohno really fit the bill. Tanaka is too nice to people, as Ohno says. He seems to have several emotional complexes that are going to be difficult to get over. I personally think Ohno's putting a lot of faith in herself. Also, what will come of Genshiken? Based on personal experiences, people drift away from every one of their friends when they date. Surely it's a possibility that they'll be too enamoured with each other to care about the rest of the group.

This was a good episode, Kuchiki made me crack up at the very end though with his breast implants lol. Man Tanaka's brave to withstand letting a girl watch him play a hentai game, but it all worked out in the end for him XD.....cosplay sex from now on lol XD

They were a natural couple from the begin of everything...hentai for reference lol. I've noticed the characters themselves have been blushing for a very long duration. Every character must have least blushed at something while in a conversation of something...

bumped from a 8 to a 9, im really enjoying this series as much as the last one

Tanaka and Ohno are a great match and im happy that they got together. I was afraid that quite the opposite would happen and Tanaka would fall in love only to be rejected.

HURRAY FOR OTAKU ROMANCE!

and happy endings ;)
