I'm contributing to the flood of Valentine's Day :) I hope it's somewhat unique, though, because I want to depict an awkward otaku-fujoshi couple. Sasahara dan Oguie is such an awkward couple, so here they are.

I call this piece "What have you done, Sasahara-san?" I'm sure that's what I'd scream if I ever see them and see a teary-eyed Ogiue :D (obviously I'm a fanboi)

I'm going to submit this for my sketch group's doujin artbook. (This piece is a WIP I'm kind of forcing for Valentines Day; I'll work on it further for the book.) Please look forward to it this June :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Did you finish this piece before or after Sasahara and Ogiue...

...ahhhemmm...

...you know, "did it?"

Ah, they did? :D
I drew this around a year before the Genshiken "bonus" chapter was released (after which Genshiken II started). As far as I know, there is no explicit indication how far they went in the manga :p

I see. :D

True, no explicit content is shown, but it is definitely implied. Sasahara did say he was gonna show Ogiue "just how aggressive he can be" after Ogiue herself showed him her the "yaoi fantasies" in her sketchbook.

*hint hint*

I was completely absorbed in the chapters where their relationship was unfolding. It was so great.
I love this manga. It's my all time favorite.

Great Pic. Love it.^^

Thanks :)

Yes, volume 8 (which contains the chapters you mentioned) is intense. The manga did help me to accept that I am a casual otaku (somewhat like Sasahara), something that I was (and perhaps still am) a little embarrassed about.

Thanks again.

I used to be like that. Not as much now, though and it's a little sad, actually.
School took too much time. I still read manga, though but I'm much more picky.^^
And I do attend anime-cons with my friend, so I guess I'm kinda still an otaku... even though Norway only has like three cons a year, and one being a Shonen Ai con. xD

Oh, this is fantastic! I love this couple and you really captured their personalities well. I love how detailed your art is, as well. :]

Thanks :)
I happened to re-read my Genshiken manga on the weekend. Ogiue is quite a (difficult) personality. I wonder how Sasahara copes after the manga ends :p

I just re-read mine, as well! :)
She seems to be getting a bit better, at least, after the two of them get together... Sasahara is a trooper, I'm sure he manages somehow, haha.

I love this couple as well. :love: You did a great job emulating the manga's incredibly-detailed style.
