The official site for season two of the Genshiken anime has been updated today with all sorts of awesome goodness, including a TV broadcast schedule, new character introductions (Sue and Angela) and cast interviews, OP and ED single release information, and last but not least a promotional video which may or may not be the same as the one that ran at Comiket 72. In addition the first episode of the series will be streaming at Bandai Channel starting Friday September 14th (this week!). In related news, it was announced recently that Genshiken spinoff game Ramen Tenshi Pretty Menma will be seeing a manga adaptation in Comic Alive starting in its November ’07 edition (on sale September 27th), written by Kio Shimoku and illustrated by manga newcomer Shiroi Norio. Our earlier coverage of the staff and casting details of Genshiken 2 can be found here. (no more)
P.S. The song playing in the background of the promotional movie is “Clubhouse Sandwich” (クラブハウスサンド) by Yuumao, and is the show’s ending theme. I’m really liking it a lot. A lot. Man I’m excited for this… :D
I say NO to the op/ed performers change. At least they stayed with the OVA chara designs (just a bit more detailed, as seen on famitsu.com character sheets), instead of the first season ones (thank god).
Apparently tell if someone’s american by the color of their hair outline.
Am I forgetting something?
Oh yes.
Mmmmmm Ogi.
interesting song, it’s good. can’t wait for the series to begin. and can’t wait for fujoshi characters ;)
