I just don't understand how so many westernfags can hate moe.
>>147169157
Because Azusa a shit. Ritsu a best, a moogs is fine too.
It blatantly goes against everything Western culture stands for

>shit thread
>>147169217
Fuck Western culture.
>>147169157
Nobody really HATES moe, just the shows that are simply tailor made for that sort of thing with little else to show for it, ie "moe-shit".Ritsu is the only good Keion
>>147169204
She's only good with her hair down, even then she's next-to-worst girl out of the main 5.
>>147169217
What is western culture in this context?
>>147169352
Allah
Is not westerners is normal people
They see no value in it and thats because they arent as damaged as us

>>147169157
Good moe like Sketchbook is always welcomed. Trash like K-on not.
Because they're dumb and don't know what it is.
>>147169621
Thats the point retard.
Mobile posters are cancer.
>>147169217
How exactly does it go against western culture? A few pissed off women and edgy teenagers doesn't constitute western culutre.
>>147169328
This. Modern moe is bad because it's blatantly artificially manifactured by executives, openly paraded around everywhere in marketing, and treated as the main focus of shows instead of just being one aspect of them. Moe used to have a much more subtle and underground feel to it, almost as if it were unintentional, and generally restricted to one or two characters per series who were often tragic heroines to truly pull at one's heartstrings and get one endeared to them. Compare the roles of Hotaru from Sailor Moon and Rei from Evangelion to the characters in K-On and New Game, for example.
Basically, "moe" is the same as "waifu": It should be about one girl who you get attached to enough to make shrines for them, not series that you buy a bunch of trinkets from, then forget for the next one.

>used to have a much more subtle and underground feel to it
Yeah pantyshots.
I miss them so much
>>147169204
>>147169338
You two both have shit taste, Azusa a best.
>>147169157
Only contrarians really hate it. Why do you think they make so much of it? People buy it and like it.

Some people got this idea that moe is somehow destroying anime. They usually think that "manime" was the standard in the 80's, forgetting that there was just as much cute shit back then as there is now.
>>147169883
For people with brain

Moe=/=Fanservice
>>147170039
I could argue moe shows are 24 minute fanservice anime
>>147169204
Yes, Ritsu is a best. But Azusa is also a best, though there is a decent power gap.
>>147169927
Literal kids' shows looking cute=/=moe anime manifactured specifically for adults seeking cuteness and nothing else.
I miss the times when moeshit wasn't a buzzword
>>147170127
Its not, if anything is a derogatory term for cgdct
>>147169889
I know right? Who the fuck jacks off to a tiny mobile screen.
The nerve of some people.
>>147170262
>>147170094
Still not destroying anime. The main point of my post was that "cute shows" were just as common back then as they are today. It doesn't matter in the least whether it's aimed at adults or not.
>>147170262
Trump is going to lose.
>>147169805
She's a shit. A SHIT!
Mostly because moe is 90% of the times made for men and 90% of western man thing they'll go gay if they watch cute stuff
>>147169157
I don't hate moe, but a lot of it is boring and samey.
Same thing with harems, anyone remember what series pic related was posted in response to?
>>147170450
Don't you have some social media normalfags site to raid with anime?
>>147170450
Are you still naive enough to actually believe that any candidate this election is actually worth getting into office? They're both fucking shit, and you /pol/tards are too dumb to realize this. Besides, it's pretty obvious by the polls that trump is going to lose by a pretty large margin.
>>147170560
I dont know but thats hilarious
Harem anime seem to have died though
I mean there are some with harem elements but very mild and on the background to the story
>>147170700
Fuck off back to riddit where you belong.

Western culture for women = act like men, being feminine and cute is haram.

You're doing this on purpose, aren't you.
>rigged polls don't mean anything
It's funny how all /pol/tards use this exact same statement whenever the polls are mentioned, denying the facts does not make the contrary true.
Please go back to your /pol/ hugbox and stay off /a/.
>>147170700
you guys are starting to become the new bronies.
>>147171039
Not surprising considering that /pol/ is shamelessly inviting redditors to 4chan.
>>147171133
they are like a perpetual chanology, im just hoping this shit ends when the election does.
The Tumblrcunt raging in this thread is quite palpable.

Because if I wanted to see a girl specifically engineered to appeal to male's desire, I'd prefer her to be part of a hentai.
>autistic /pol/fag being cancer as always
Its gonna be hilarious when Trump lose. All of 4chan raiding their shithole of a board and laughing at them.
>>147171362
I dont care about raids and shit, I just want them gone
>>147171240
About what? That Hillary is shit? Trump is just as shit, you /pol/tards are just too dumb to realize that.
I just want you to keep you're shit on /pol/.
>>147171320
>/pol/tards calling others redditors
How ironic.
Mugi-chan best keion. Fite me.
>>147171714
I would support putting all /pol/tards in gas chambers.

Hello crossboarder. Having different opinions is now edgy? If you think that, then it's probably better for you to go back to /pol/, that way you won't see different opinions.
>>147169157
Because "westernfags" actually care about the state of the anime industry and don't want it to degrade to nothing but fap material for pathetic weaboos
>>147172204
>bronies
I don't recall Trump supporters having fetishistic sexual attraction to Trump, and flooding 4chan with Trump discussion, screenshots and autism, but I'm sure the ~7 posts in this thread are enough to make you feel insecure enough to disagree
>>147172230
>Hello crossboarder
This is the shittiest excuse to attack another anon as I've ever seen.

>Having different opinions is now edgy?
No, but spassing out at another anon for posting a MAGA hat image is the definition of edgy autism.
>it's probably better for you to go back to /pol/
Nah I'll stay on all the boards on 4chan, and you can go back to whatever cesspit you came from if you feel the need to shit up everything you see

wat
Because moe sucks. There is literally nothing interesting about it. If I wanted cutesy bullshit with no rhyme or reason to it, I'd watch my baby sister's cartoons.
>>147172465
this bait is too fucking strong
>>147173247
it wont be bait when crunchyroll/funimation/netflix are dictating what gets made 10 years from now kiddo
>>147169157
It's the inherent femininity in feeling moe, which makes sense since moe itself initially grew as a rejection towards the ideal Japanese salarymen culture. There's a reason why 'manime' is seen as the opposite end of the spectrum instead of ambitious, artsy shows.
Anyway moe is a dead word in nipland since Densha Otoko brought that word into mainstream consciousness.
>>147173942
what word do they use then
>>147173356
>nips
>giving a shit what the international market says
when tumblrinas start buying figs by the hundreds of thousands, maybe DEEN will start to care
>>147173942
>Anyway moe is a dead word in nipland since Densha Otoko brought that word into mainstream consciousness.
I'm interested in this. Since a lot of shows air during the day, it always feels weird seeing moe mentioned in a series that isn't obviously aimed at otaku (very sexual/dark).
>>147174575
I think it's the nip equivalent of The Big Bang Theory, both used the 'lol us nerds/otakus' shtick and brought it into mainstream audience.
It declined though, We might've seen moe being more widely accepted now if Miyazaki hadn't went and kill little girls while having anime in his residence.
>>147174816
>We might've seen moe being more widely accepted now if Miyazaki hadn't went and kill little girls while having anime in his residence.
I'm not sure if that would be better or worse. On one hand, it could lead to mainstream audiences actually buying shows down the road, but on the other it could also deteriorate whatever goodwill was built up because it would mean a stronger focus on it.
>>147172230
Hey now. I give those guys different opinions over there every day before they call me a shill and ignore every logical thing I have to say.
Lets forget the faggotry in this thread and discuss why ritsu is best girl and mio is just too dumb to get the awesomeness
>>147169621
what did he mean by this? i get people being mad at reddit but shit like this doesnt make sense
all of k-ons are shit in a shitty boring anime made by the shitiest studio. I didn't watch it because I would not make it through but how can anyone like that horrible style they are drawn in?
>>147172465
>"westernfags" actually care about the state of the anime industry
No they don't, they only care about it conforming to their specific tastes and are mad their shit opinions hold next to no weight. Most don't give a damn about it, they don't know shit about it or do anything to support it.
>>147172533
idiot
>>147169157
You've got it wrong. It's tumblr, underage kids, shounenshitters(euphamism for dark skinned people) and retarded hipsters that blame moe for the west not respecting anime.
hhhhollllyyy shhhhiiiittt i looooovvvvvve k-ooonnnnnn

Pretty much every single word in that image should be wordfiltered or just an auto-ban. Most of the posts I read containing the words and expressions there are clearly made by puerile, mouthbreathing retards who are clearly trying to provoke rage and do not care one bit about the content of this board.
Moe was made to pander weebs
>>147186264
Japanese people can't be weebs, you're saying it was made to pander to a Western audience? Upupupu.
>>147169157
They probably think it is girly.
Because westernfags only like shit if it has some pretentious meaning behind, even if the content itself it's trash.
Just take a look at praised books, movies, etc.
They all follow the same rule.
Western normalfags can't appreciate something for what it is, and they are also hypocrites, since the artistic display that carries that meaning it's also taken into huge consideration.
