Yukimura Kusunoki is a supporting character from the Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai series. She is first introduced as Kodaka's stalker. Her first meeting with the Neighbor's Club resulted in gender confusion, as her appearance was decidedly feminine despite her claiming to be male. She admiringly sees Kodaka as a romantic and masculine outlaw who lives life the way he wants to and eagerly pledges to become his "underling" on the basis that she can learn to become less effeminate through serving him. She is the fourth member of the Neighbor's Club. The reason why Yukimura is unable to get friends is that she thinks she is a boy (despite her assignment at birth), which makes the boys uncomfortable, as well as her slightly over-the-top fascination for manliness. Yukimura has deep respect and admiration for Kodaka, and even calls him "aniki" (big bro, often used with gang leaders). Yukimura wishes to learn from "aniki" how to be a stronger and more manly boy.   

Yukimura has rather low-self esteem as she has been always shown to be greatly hurt and wanted to commit seppuku if she perceives herself as useless to Kodaka whom she looks up to as an example of masculinity. Yukimura is also very gullible, being tricked by Yozora to wear women's clothing, and joining the club (by Yozora for the purpose of using her as a servant) and later, wearing a butler outfit. As the series progresses, Yukimura seems to become more and more confident; her personality gradually changes as she is seen to leave sarcastic comments on Kodaka, which is very surprising considering how respectful towards him she usually is. Yukimura is also very polite, as she uses the term "watakushi" (私, わたくし) to describe herself, which is considered extremely formal and sophisticated. Yukimura rarely gets fazed by anything. For example when the entire club was frightened to ride on the "Black Dragon" roller coaster while Yukimura's attitude didn't change much, but it's also important to note that she just didn't express her fear, as her continuous chanting of sutras didn't cease throughout the entire ride, which indicates that she is an inexpressive person. Though she did show a hint of fear and nervousness when entering the haunted house, much to Kodaka's amusement, and again when she was picked to be the lead character for their film respectively.

She is very dedicated to her work, never failing to bring Kodaka his daily food and comics and doing whatever he tells her to do (although she does take them to extremes). Other than being almost devoid of emotion, Yukimura also seemed to be engrossed on any topic related to samurai's. An example is when she immediately jumped into a conversion - regarding a hairstyle called "heaping" - when Rika started to relate to the concept of the hairstyle about a samurai's helmet but was cut-off by Kodaka as Yukimura was going way beyond the said topic, much to her dismay.

~!From the time she joined the Neighbor's Club, it was never hinted that Yukimura had desires to make friends. This was proven true in Volume 8; she only joined the Neighbor's Club to solely serve Kodaka, no more, no less. Though it is shown that she began to act friendlier and sometimes began to open up towards her club-mates; which improved whenever the entire club went to an outing or to simply just kill time in the club room. Yukimura's friendliness and gentle demeanor also allowed her to get sociable with other people, particularly Aoi.!~

~!It's later revealed that in reality they are a girl. Thanks to her family always wanting a son, she has grown believing it was her duty to fulfil that desire, explaining her aim to follow Kodaka's "manliness" and much of her previously demonstrated behaviour. !~

Ogiue is a blunt, self-hating fujoshi and amateur artist whose inner turmoil is the focus of much of the second half of Genshiken.  Ogiue hails from the Tohoku region of Japan in the northeast, and as such frequently tries to hide her accent while she attends college in the Tokyo area.  When put under pressure though her accent tends to slip through.  Her eyesight is incredibly bad, and requires the use of contact lenses or glasses.    Ogiue is a fan of yaoi and boys' love, and her taste in doujinshi stems from a preference for shounen series.  Among the series she likes are Scram Dunk (Slam Dunk), Haregan (Fullmetal Alchemist), Reass Mood (Code Geass), and Wotaru (Wataru).   ~!In junior high, at the request of her friend Nakajima, Ogiue drew a yaoi dōjinshi of a boy named Makita, whom she had been secretly dating. Makita found the dōjinshi and soon after transferred to a different school. This incident is the source of Ogiue's trauma and self-hatred, and it continues to haunt her until she begins to date Sasahara, who is much more understanding of her yaoi fantasies and love of drawing. Ogiue eventually obtains a publishing deal with Monthly Afternoon, the very magazine in which Genshiken was published.  In the relaunch of the manga, Ogiue managed to draw in three new members to Genshiken (not counting Sue) thanks to her large artwork demonstration. She has hired the four first-year club members to be her assistants for her professional manga work.!~ (Source: Wikipedia)
