Moe Loading

—

I have a few hypotheses about moe that I want to toss out there. They’re fun to think about so maybe this will be entertaining. Throughout this post I will talk about Bayonetta as an example. Bayonetta is a relatively new video game out in Japan and soon in America, Europe and ...

Anime Festival Asia 2009: The Second Day

Omo and the M-word
アニ・ノート — It was a pretty readable post , as far as Omo goes. Discerning his point was some ways easier than finding where Derrida stole the slippage of the signifier from Lacan. I noted this: Trying to define moe is a trap. Because you can’t really do it beyond a personal context, so unless you’re planning to do it empirically (would be pretty awesome if you do), it’s just much ado about nothing. It’s partly why I’m against writing about moe myself, and this post is probably written against my better judgment. The subject does make great troll bait however. It’s a much more preferable ...

THIS is what moe is
クロス† チャネル — ... Moe = a jap word for this shit turns me on. Stop making it into something scientific and complex. This isn’t rocket science. Especially tl;dr. Sorry, I have a pet peeve for when people take something like a little stupid cartoon concept and write an over 9000 word essay about it. ...

Going Nuts and Bolts for Mecha-Musume: The Seihou to My Touhou
Rainbowsphere — ... Of course, genre-wise, there are times where mecha-musume get a chance to get their own show, or manga, or figure, or whatever material they get featured in aside from their designs and illustrations. They never fail to give an ample supply of fanservice, and they’re unrestricted when it comes to showcasing the delicious perks of liking it. Maybe this is one aspect of moe that I’ve been hearing somewhere. Marketing strategy? Something to degrade the genre into something that would benefit the conspirators one way or another? And what about us fans? ...

Christmas Shopping in November: Memories from Two Decades of my Life
SNAG Vs. World — ... us, and even Kurt Cobain isn’t a sacred cow to people my age. To us he’s just another rock star that killed himself. To Generation X he has much more meaning. What will happen to Western culture as it is reshaped by this economic crisis that makes newer content with fresh ideas harder to sell? Maybe the old culture may have a chance in this economy, at the expense of newer writers and directors who are struggling at this time. For example when I watch anime shows I don’t really watch moe shows because that just doesn’t appeal to me much, at least not any more. Now growing to ...
