I say suffer because here, look at the boxart of the Kujibiki Unbalance region 2 release that has the Genshiken episode. Looks pretty sweet to me. Oh wait, look at the Genshiken extras that box has.

Wow, that's a pretty neat image of the three main female protagonists.

Oh, I think I'll faint now at this image of Chika Ogiue.

Here is a clear view of the DVD box.

Wow, that's really good. I wonder if we'll see any of it in the US. Anime cry

Looking at the CDJapan page for Kujibiki Unbalance, I get the impression that in Japan the Genshiken OVAs are being released only with the DVD boxes.

There's box I.
Box II.
Box III.

Each of the Genshiken OVA come with their own DVD case with art at 50 minutes per volume. That's 150 minutes or 6 OVA episodes I expect.

I see this as a good omen since the Genshiken OVA episodes are not integrated into the Kujibiki Unbalance episodes. A distributor here in the US may be able to release it on their own. Hello Media Blasters! When can we expect it? Anime hyper
Has anyone see a preview to Genshiken? Wink
In case you haven't, here it is! The first 1:50 is for Kuji-un, the rest is Genshiken. Very Happy

See the preview!

I would rather have media blasters skip the ova and try to get season 2 brought over to america first since the ova wasent that good.

Nothing like pouring salt on an open wound, eh, dormcat? Wink

I'm pining for some more Genshiken myself, but like hell I'll endure Kujibiki Unbalance to get to it. If the OVAs and Kujibiki are released together in the States, I'm just going to forget the whole thing.

Eh, guess I'm the only one who wouldn't mind buying Kujibiki Unbalance with the Genshiken OVAs. I was kind of hesitant at first, but I've heard it wasn't that bad, and I did like the OVA. I still like Genshiken better though. I'd like it if both were licensed.

Cloe, you can skip the Unbalance episodes, that's what I did when I brought Voices of a Distant Star to get She and Her Cat.

And just skip over the plot so that Ogiue and Kuchiki are there with no explanation? I don't think I can agree with that.

Confused
