One of the dragons of Heaven, a fourteen-year-old schoolgirl descended from the keepers of Mitsumine Jinja, masters of inugami (dog-spirits), Yuzuriha is exceedingly energetic, often diffusing latent tension between Kamui and the rest of the Ten no RyÅ«. Yuzuriha is attended by her own personal inugami, Inuki, who can transform into anything she desires and who only others with occult powers can see. She was teased throughout much of her childhood as her classmates believed Inuki was her imaginary friend. Because of this, Yuzuriha made a vow that she would never fall in love with (or even date) a man who could not see Inuki. However, the first person outside of her family that she meets who can see Inuki is ShiyÅ« Kusanagi—a Dragon of Earth. Yuzuriha falls in love with Kusanagi, regardless of their conflicting fates. In Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle In Edonis country, she's a player who's paired up with Kusanagi Shiyuu. In Tokyo, she's one of the seven fighters of the Tower faction.
She is a friend of Sawako's from back when they were in high school, and they were both in the light music club together as part of the band Death Devil. She and Sawako used to try to outdo each other on the guitar. Her stage name is Christina.
Horigome is the classical literature teacher at Sakuragaoka High School, where he has taught for a long time. He was the supervisor of the school's light music club when the members were a band known as Death Devil. He considered the club too wild at the time, experiencing many problems and frequently scolding the members. He continues to teach, but is no longer the club advisor.
Blood Type: B Birthday: February 2, 1984 Age: 18-22 Favorite Manga: The Mysterious Adventures of DaDa Favorite Anime: pretty much anything Favorite Game: Full Armor, Street Master 2, Draculina Hunter Pen Name: Toshizo (トシゾー, Toshiz�?) Zodiac Sign: Aquarius Ringtone: Hana no ko Lunlun Unusually handsome and cute, Kousaka is actually one of the most hardcore otaku in Genshiken. He loves hentai games and is undefeatable when it comes to video games, particularly the fighting genre. As Saki's boyfriend, Kousaka is largely responsible for Saki learning to be patient when it comes to dating an otaku. Kousaka can be considered the exception to the rules of stereotypical otaku, as he is able to juggle fashion with an otaku lifestyle, though after getting a job programming for a porn game company, even Kousaka cannot completely keep up with such a hectic schedule. Kousaka is easy-going and never loses his temper, a trait portrayed by the constant smile on his face. However, he can be rather forceful when the need arises, particularly when it comes to keeping Saki from avoiding her promises. (Source: Wikipedia)
Blood Type: A Birthday: June 29, 1982 Age: 19-23 Favorite Manga: Anman Dama Favorite Anime: Fun with the Tarurun Family (before the theme song changed) Favorite Game: Exitge Pen Name: KODAMA Zodiac Sign: Cancer Ringtone: Laputa: Castle in the Sky theme The stuttering, heavyset Kugayama is Genshiken's only artist until Ogiue's arrival. He generally lacks the motivation and commitment to create a full-fledged d�jinshi. In volume 5, Sasahara asks Kugayama to draw a d�jinshi for Comic-Fest, which he fails to do until Saki forces him, Ogiue, and Sasahara to make one under a very tight schedule. He is given the nickname 'Kugapii' by Saki. In volume 6, he graduates and begins work at a medical device manufacturing company in Iidabashi. Kugayama, though at first a seemingly mediocre artist, is actually quite talented. However, his talent only appears when he is properly motivated, i.e. when drawing more erotic imagery, particularly that of Yamada from Kujibiki Unbalance. (Source: Wikipedia)
Birthday: December 22 Blood type: AB Favorite Manga: The Seven Star Stories Favorite Anime: Ryunos: the castle in the Sky, Conan the boy from the Future Favorite Games: Yuujiro Tactic, The Story of Mr.Stupid Game Character: Dr.Haywood Ringtone: FFX - Hurry Of the three original upperclassmen, Tanaka's personality is more neutral than the others. He is generally not as eager to rant as Madarame, but is more comfortable with himself than Kugayama. A hardcore cosplayer and costume designer, Tanaka is able to bring what should be impractical or even impossible costumes to life. Tanaka is also an expert plamo (plastic model) builder and is not afraid to teach anyone who is willing to learn. While well-versed in many areas of model and figure culture, Tanaka is personally not experienced with figure-modeling, but attempts to learn by sculpting a model of Shinobu from Kujibiki Unbalance. Tanaka finds his dream girl in Ohno, who becomes not only the ideal model for his costumes, but also his girlfriend. He also makes costumes for Saki and Ogiue, though this can be attributed to his love of costume design, and not any sort of romantic feelings towards either of them. Tanaka believes that models and cosplay are two separate worlds, and treats those two worlds somewhat differently. "Figures are figures. Cosplay is cosplay." (Source: Wikipedia)
Introduced in volume two of the manga, Kuchiki becomes a full-member of Genshiken together with Ogiue in volume four apparently after being kicked out of the Anime Club. Kuchiki is a very abrasive individual, with a loud and obnoxious style of speech and no qualms about doing indecent or improper things (such as spying on girls). He was a part of the Anime Society before he joined Genshiken. He wants to be nicknamed Kuchi (クッ�ー Kucchī?) and enjoys it when people use this nickname. He is also not ashamed to cosplay. Kuchiki is actually the second-best fighting game player in Genshiken, next to Kousaka. He twice expects himself to be named the next Genshiken president, only to be passed over by Ohno and then Ogiue. Mostly a background comedic character, Kuchiki is used as a goad for a good many of Genshiken's slapstick and off-color jokes. One might even consider him a boke to the rest of the Genshiken's tsukkomi. In the relaunch of the manga, it is revealed that Kuchiki doesn't need to look for a job since he's pretty much guaranteed to have a job at a local bank thanks to family connections.
