| | ICv2 News - Yamato Has 'Genshiken' Figures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | Genshiken, the "Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture" sounds like a real snooze fest, but anyone who has seen the Genshiken anime series (released in the U.S. by Media Blasters) or read the increasingly popular Genshiken manga (published here by Del Rey) knows that Genshiken is an otaku-based comedy of the first order. |
 | | The Genshiken Miniature Trading Figures (MSRP $5.99 ea.), which are due out in November, include: Sasahara, Kousaka, Saki, Madarame, Mitusnori, Tanaka and Ohno. |
 | | Fans can collect them all to create a fun-filled diorama of the Genshiken meeting room, but they may have to engage in a little trading to come up with a complete set since the figures come mystery boxed, which, of course, is the only way a true otaku would have it. |
