To rejoice the discharge of his new artbook, Mata Ashita, Bushitsu de (See You Tomorrow within the Clubroom), Genshiken writer Kio Shimoku had a particular 2+ hour discuss session on September 16, 2024. The venue was Umeda Lateral, a chat and dwell music membership in Osaka, and was title “Gendai Shikaku Bunka Kenkyuukai Umeda Bunshitsu, or “The Society for the Research of Fashionable Visible Tradition Umeda Annex.”
Luckily, the complete occasion was streamed dwell, and there’s an archived video out there on their official web site for a restricted time! A streaming ticket prices 2,800 yen and lasts till September 30 JST.
Whereas I plan to jot down concerning the discuss (and the artbook) in additional element, I’ve not had the prospect to look at it in full but. I did take a quick look, although, and Kio truly seems in individual. That is most likely going to be the primary time many individuals get to see him. Additionally, he confirmed early idea notes about Genshiken!
Sharing screenshots shouldn’t be allowed, so sadly I can’t put up his mug or these cool sketches.
I’m blissful to see us go from having the person be an entire thriller, to doing an interview with VTuber Luis Cammy, to having him begin a Twitter, and now this.
