add recDoujin Work and Genshiken 2 both focus on the process of making Doujin, the reasons behind it, and the selling aspects. They also show the "hardships" that doujinshi go through to finish their art, although the anime tend to show more funny situations than hardships.
Doujin is nowhere near as good as Genshiken. But both follows the struggles of making and selling doujinshi at ComiFes.
Both of these series take a look at creating doujinshi instead of merely reading it. If you liked that aspect of Genshiken 2 as well as the comedic side of it, then it is worth checking out Doujin Work.

Otaku no Video
- OVA (2 eps)
- 1991
As a "mockumentary" of an Otaku's life, this anime is a hilarious take on the sometimes weird and abnormal life of an extreme Otaku. Based loosely on the origins of Gainax, the anime intermixes nicely drawn animation with truly strange interviews with "real fans" that segues into a very bizarre SF adventure. Follow a band of Otaku as they blunder their way through hilarious situations on their way to "Otakunizing" humanity itself!

add recBoth are about a buch of friends bound together by their interests (in Honey&Clover they go to the same university while in Genshiken to the same club) and their struggles in life (love, friendship, future). I\'m sure you\'ll find the main characters very alike.

add recKujibiki started out as an 'anime in an anime' on Genshiken, that later became a real anime.
They don't really have anything in common. But there are so many references to Kujibiki in Genshiken, that watching it will give you a greater appreciation of Genshiken.
