Genshiken is an unusual manga and anime because there is no ongoing plot, per se. The non-linear storyline generally has no particular plot but simply follows the lives of several college students and the trials and adventures associated with being otaku. The story begins with the introduction of Sasahara Kanji, a shy confidence-lacking freshman who on club day at university, decides to join a club he would actually enjoy, The Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture or for short, Genshiken. Over time Sasahara comes to accept himself for who he is and loses the inhibitions and guilt he once felt and associated with otaku culture. As the story of Genshiken continues, focus is shifted to Kasukabe Saki, an emphatic non-otaku who initially struggles to drag her boyfriend out of the club. Whether it's coming to grips with oneself and possibly eventually fostering pride or realizing it is impossible to change the true identity of those close to you, the theme of acceptance is applied to both characters. Its only 8 volumes marissa!
