僕と契約して○○になってよ!


僕と契約して○○になってよ!

is what I said! Madoka joke. Wanna fill in "社会人" there haha.

Ahhhh, application turned in sort of on time! Money isn't such a big deal! Now all I need is to find housing and the courage to email my supervisor haha.

Below is a great analysis of Ohno's character. These past few days I've remembered why I liked Genshiken so much. Definitely have to check out the 2nd season (even though it's filled with fujoshi crap...). Definitely in danger of falling back into otaku mode. Although maybe that's just because my interactions with people (and the outside world) are so few these days.

Anyways, great analysis, and interesting one of Kousaka's girlfriend Saki. (tteka Ohno and Tanaka getting together in episode 4 was unexpected but unexpectedly realistic! Gotta post on that later.)

I love Kanako Ohno.
This is simply because she is one of the — if not the – strongest and most honest characters in all of Genshiken. Yes, she hides her preference for bald, muscled older men (due to some bad experiences showin’ her moe in America), and she is prone to stammering when she does not know what to say, but she is not afraid to stand up for herself and what she loves. When Saki reacts like, “HUBBAWHA?!” to Ohno — a woman! — actually wanting to join Genshiken, Ohno just replies, “But I like cosplay.” That’s all that matters to her. That other people may disapprove of it never crosses Ohno’s mind for even a second. This is who she is! She loves to put herself in the shoes of different characters; nothing makes her happier. And she loves to put that happiness on display for others to enjoy. It’s tough thing to develop the confidence to show yourself like that. Certainly the men of Genshiken are nowhere near being able to do that...
