Book Description
COOL NEWS! The smash hit Genshiken manga series may have ended, but your favorite characters live on in this exciting new novel with never-before-seen illustrations by Genshiken's original creator! The deafening whack-whack-whack of a helicopter above campus is the first indication that the balmy tranquility of the Genshiken Club is about to be disturbed. The chopper brings handsome Ranto Hairu: transfer student, scion of a powerful Japanese conglomerate, and newly named chairman of the on-campus club organization committee. Hairu has strong ideas about the kind of clubs that deserve to survive (earnest, industrious) and the kind that don't (arty, frivolous), and he's a big fan of brute force. For Madarame, Kousaka, Ohno, and the others, the idea of losing their cherished club is the ultimate nightmare--but it's only the first of many. Fortunately, the Genshiken boys and girls have a few tricks of their own, including a certain swordfighter summoned from ancient times who could prove very handy.

Come the next day, it’s time for a field trip to the great shrine at Nikko! The always-cunning Yoshitake has a grand plan to resolve the Madarame situation once and for all—but it might just be grandly awkward… “A remarkably naturalistic manga that, like the sitcom The Big Bang Theory, makes the ordinary lives of people with extraordinary interests and hobbies easily relatable… Ultimately this is a simple human story [readers] shouldn’t miss.” —ICV2
