About Genshiken

The Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture

The Genshiken Group is based off of a manga by Kio Shimoku which is called Genshiken. This Group, like Kio Shimoku's creation is all about the modern day Otaku life style.

In modern Japanese slang, the term otaku refers to an overtly obsessive fan of any one particular theme, topic, or hobby. Common uses are anime otaku (one who sometimes enjoys many days of excessive anime watching with no rest) and manga otaku (a fan of Japanese graphic novels), pasokon otaku (personal computer geeks), gēmu otaku (playing video games), and wota (before referred as "idol otaku") that are extreme fans of idols, heavily promoted singing girls. (Definition source Wikipedia)

If you're an Otaku we would love to have you join the group and share your common obsession with us, just as long as you keep to the rules.
