What Moe anime or Moe-esque Characters Do You Like?

Postby **KeybladeWarrior** » Sun Jan 09, 2011 9:30 pm

I am asking this out of curiosity. Lately, I have been getting into moe anime and wondered if anyone liked these kind of shows and why? Also, what characters with moe elements do you like?

I feel the need to ask, what exactly is moe?

Here's a small bit from the TV Tropes page:

Here's a link to the full page, if you are interested.

I'm a fan of Kanon (2006). All the girls are very Moe, but they're real characters despite it, and I really felt for them.

Same for Sora no Woto and Haibane Renmei (yes, HB counts for me!).

Basically, if they fall into 'cute' but not necessarily 'adorable', and they stay out of stupid-fun antics, then I like the show.

How is Osaka moe?

On a separate note, Kotomi, just Kotomi.

Funny how moe sounds a bit like a truncated version of 'more!'

It's kuuderes all the way for me, or taken even further, the Blue-Haired Autistic Girl, hereafter abbreviated as ABHG (because I don't like 'BHAG'). The characters don't necessarily have to have blue hair or be officially autistic (or even be a girl) to fit, they just have to act that way. Examples include:

Kannagi NoÃ«l of Sora no Woto
Tachibana Kanade ("Angel") of Angel Beats
Hoshino Ruri of Nadesico
Lafiel of Crest of the Stars and sequels
Morimiya Aono of Sola
Ayase Yue of Negima
Ayanami Rei of Evangelion

I like Mikuru from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, but Ayu from Kanon will always be my favorite

Hm, now that I think about it I don't think I know any moe characters. xD I need to start watching more different anime.

I like Haruhi Fujioka (sp?) in Ouran. (Is she Moe?) But I don't like her just because she's cute. I'm not sure why I like her, actually. XD Maybe because she's so mellow.

[font="Trebuchet MS"][SIZE="4"][color="RoyalBlue"]My vote goes for Akari from "Aria: The Animation/Natural/Origination" series. I love the fact that she can find something wonderful in everything and everyone. In my eyes, she's the epitome of a moe character, without even TRYING! And come on! You gotta love a girl with a zero carbon footprint. In my book, she ties with Konata Izumi from "Lucky Star". [/color][/SIZE][/font]

Yay for Kotomi for being Moe!!! And Haruka from Rumbling Hearts?

Mayu from Captain Harlock?

Why did you have to bring up the pink-haired demon child? Evil! Pure evil, that's what she is! She wants to do her own dad! AND a horse! EVIL!

That's even worse. Just think of the symbology with that!

Now wait a minute, Helios had a human form. He was her husband in the future so he's more a human who could take the shape of pegasus.

I think that's probably just fan desires because neither the anime nor the manga said anything of the sort. He did say he would return to her, but that doesn't mean they're married. XD
