What exactly is "moe"? I always thought it was what you'd call a show that had an all female loli/childish cast, but now I'm not so sure.
>>
It's a warm feeling you get when a character does something cute or helpless, like having butterflies in your stomach

That's Cute Girls Doing Cute Things, or CGDCT for short. Somehow this acronym is becoming associated with reddit because of retarded newfags, although it propagated mainly here during 2010 or so. Fuckin' people, I swear.

>>141786833
Better than using a more reddit term "slice of life"
>>
Anything and everything that /v/, reddit, and normies dislike in anime apparently. Just like the term filler.
>>
>>141786907

SoL isn't necessarily moe, it's anything that focuses on daily lives rather than having an overarching plot (though there can be some plot)

also, you realize that large chunks of /r/anime post here too, right?
>>
>>141786975
>SoL isn't necessarily moe
Moe isn't a genre

>you realize that large chunks of /r/anime post here too
You'd have to be delusional to think otherwise.
>>
>>141787028

I know moe isn't a genre, i was just saying that not all SoL has moe (the vast majority does though)

>>141786974

reddit likes seinen, normies like shonen, /v/ just faps to jojo
>>
All of you, just go back to live journal.

I'm pretty sure a large part of /a/ browses r/anime
Whenever /a/ is mentioned, there are people commenting in a very 4chan-esque fashion.
I don't really browse it regularly because I don't like Reddit's awful comment system, but I happen to lurk there from time to time

moe is life.

Nicely put for a tumblr image.

Moe as a concept has been around since Astro Boy, but a lot of people like to narrow the word down to vent their own frustrations on modern anime

Literally projecting. There's obviously some like on every place on the internet unfortunately, but it's likely fuck all given that /a/ is slowing down and it's post IPs in threads has remained constant since the feature was introduced.
