July 4, 2013 for IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 4, 2013 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NIS AMERICA ANNOUNCES BRAND-NEW ANIME TITLE GENSHIKEN SECOND SEASON (WORKING TITLE) AT ANIME EXPO! Anime Expo, CA (July 4, 2013) – NIS America is proud to announce the acquisition of Genshiken Second Season (working title) for North American retail release. Genshiken is a slice-of-life anime surrounding the happenings of an eclectic gathering of otaku college students in their "Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture” club at Shiiou University.

Release information and more will be made available at a future date. Stay tuned for more information at NISAmerica.com! Genshiken Second Season (working title) About the show: After reflecting upon last year’s low freshman turnout, Chika Ogiue, the new president of Shiiou University’s “Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture” (aka Genshiken) seeks out new freshman members to join. At the freshman welcoming hall, while stealing angry glances at Kanako Ohno, the previous club president (who was having fun cosplaying, as usual), puts on a flashy drawing performance. Suddenly two girls, freshmen Rika Yoshitake and Mirei Yajima, respond to her performance by joining the club. It turns out the girls have a reputation as “dirty girls” just like Chika, and the three birds of a feather do indeed flock together. Meanwhile, a clean-cut beauty with chestnut hair appears at the club office asking to join up. But as it turns out, she’s actually a cute boy in drag... With new and unique freshmen members onboard, things in Genshiken Second Season are about to heat up!
