However, given how moe is as common to manga and anime nowadays as dirt is to the ground, it’s kind of hard to avoid the stuff, now isn’t it? I have to respect those who show disdain for moe not for their impeccable taste, but rather their talent for extracting garbage from a landfill.
Seriously, though, with moe being such a regular part of today’s anime scene, I find that my definition of what constitutes a “moe vehicle” is constantly changing. Does the mere presence of a single moe character a moe vehicle make? And, for that matter, what is a moe character? A character who behaves in an obvious moe fashion? Any female character below the age of twenty-five? Any female character? Any non-Hokuto no Ken character? And how much moe makes a moe vehicle (if a moe vehicle could chuck wood)? Moe, as far as the eye can see? A dash of moe for taste? The color pink somewhere in the logo?
Indeed. Er... I mean, preach on, bro.
