    Praise for Genshiken: Second Season 5

    "Genshiken is a remarkably naturalistic manga that, like the sitcom The Big Bang Theory, makes relatable the ordinary lives of people with extraordinary interests and hobbies easily relatable. Readers shouldn't be put off by the many obscure manga/anime references (there are copious translation notes in the back to make those clear) because ultimately this is a simple human story they shouldn't miss. 5 out of 5 stars." --ICV2.com
    "Interesting characters, humor that works, and an accurate portrayal of the fandom--what more could you ask for?" - Anime News Network
