I was writing about end of each episode.

I was writing about end of each episode when Lain is showed naked. :P But OK, I exaggerated it calling this "loli fanservice"; to be honest I simply don't understand the reason why they drawed naked 14-year girl in the ending...

I know what you meant :) Well, from what I remember, she was exposed only a little and it didn't feel awkward to me, but to each his own. I think it was another symbol of her fragility at that time.

I hate the artstyle and it feel so...not human-like if you know what i mean....exept for Higurashi...god i love that series

As previously stated, I think the fact that these characters are often just two dimensional is really boring. I am quite sick of the maid outfits and crap seen in tons of anime. It's just bland, unoriginal, and no more entertaining than the last anime series I saw where one of the female characters was acting like the male lead's sex slave. School cafe, part-time job, or just putting on a maid outfit for the hell of it, there's just absolutely no way they can redeem it or make it interesting when it's been done to hell so many times.

I can accept it as personality sometimes, but most of the time it's overkill and blatant fan service, which I don't appreciate.

In addition to hating the artstyle, I hate the fact that moe/loli themed stories are used as nothing more than crutches to compensate for actually good storytelling and characters. Nowadays you can crank out these moe/loli themed shows and makes tons of money because they cater to the lowest denominator (I'm talking about you, otakus). It just really shows laziness.

I don't hate the art style per se, and am perfectly capable of laughing my ass off with light-hearted wackyness like in Haiyore! Nyaruko-san; even the characters in Hetalia work better in this style. What riles me up is having unjustifible neotenic characters (with or without malformed palates) forced down my throat in mature situations where my brain, libido, stomach, or any combination thereof, are supposed to kick in. (Yes, Higurashi and C3, I'm looking at you!)

As for lolis, well, go read "Lolita"; the guy may love her and all, but he's really a deluded criminal pervert for whom Dolores feels only hate and disgust.
I don't like lolis in the same way I don't like unripe fruit, it'll be much sweeter if left to mature a bit more before picking; this is valid both for the body and for the mind, as I'm not into moe retards either.

That said, I find pantsu shows quite tasteless - if someone fell down in front of me, I'd be more concerned if they hadn't hurt themselves than with their panties' colour (unless there were no panties at all, at which point I just might steal a peek out of surprise before coming back to my senses); anyway, I might get excited by the wearer, I don't have a fetish for a piece of cloth (BTW, the theme is magnificently explored and deconstructed right at the beguinning of Hen Zemi).

Finally, the obnoxiously multicoloured hair: it's been around for too long to go away anymore... sigh :(

colony drop has a really great take down of the moe type that is definitely worth a read. Basically moe is really gross and insulting.

Moe is a hindrance on the quality of anime. I don't hate moe at all, I enjoy moe anime very much. However I do not support it, while moe anime is good in my opinion I can't name a single moe anime to match the quality of things like Steins;Gate, Ano Hana, Usagi Drop, Spice and Wolf and others. Moe shows just aren't as good as ones without or very little moe. I feel that if people don't oppose moe then it will consume all of anime and I refuse to let that happen.
