Those who are complaining about moe taking over should stop complaining now, you'll get the anime you want sooner or later.

Mod Edit: Title modified. It's not 'official' because some YT guy said it

9 out of 10 times moe is garbage and a cancer upon anime. An entire creative medium should not be obsessed with girls being cute. Its sad and pathetic.

People complain about their favorite dark, story driven anime not selling when moe series are selling 6k+ or complaining that the influx of moe will phase out those dark, story driven anime.

Why should I care about the sales when the show I like is already out? And the problem lies at the community's taste, which formed all these crap.


Bad sales = No sequels

Bad sales can also kill a studio.

No, because if they don't exist, less people will be edgy, and i will get to see more moe. its a win win for everyone.

Not all anime made in the 2010's is moe or plotless. Watch some Psycho Pass, Steins;Gate, Btooom, and Robotics;Notes.

Did I hear moe?


In all seriousness after reading these posts

I don't give a fuck about moe. Just keep it away from my favorites.
I don't give a fuck about dark edgy teen anime. Just keep it away from my favorites.

The fact of the matter is ANYTHING can kill the industry. If there's only ONE type of anime being made i.e. moe anime; dark edgy anime; yaoi anime; etc. then that will only attract certain people to certain anime. Too much of a good thing = bad, but no variety = bad as well.

Moe is very pretty to look at. Battle shounen is the reason why people don't take anime seriously. Before I got into anime I thought all anime was battle shounen so I didn't watch it. When I found out that moe existed I started watching anime.

Not everything has got to be dark. Some Ghibli films are amazing slice of life anime that don't need large eyes, cute kawaii voices or ridiculous facial expressions to be cute, funny or teach a lesson.

It takes time to get used to the moe. It may be scary at first, but once you become addicted to the cuteness there is no going back.

Moe essentially means "cute". It's a feeling of wanting to protect someone or something. Liking cute things is a trait that makes men good fathers. Gakkougurashi, Madoka Magica, Shirobako, and Toradora are the anime we have both seen that have a lot of moe. There is also something people refer to as "moe anime" which is an unofficial subgenre of slice of life about cute high school/middle school girls who share some interest and do related activities in a cute way.

It's an all male cast so the worst that could happen is if it's made by Studio Deen and is therefore a bishounen anime. The 2017 version will be made by a different studio than the original, but ironically the original studi made a lot of harems while the new studio has made more sports anime. It still could be bishounen though, Production IG made Haikyuu.

lol exactly!

If you already hate moe that much then most likely you would avoid shows that are considered moe.
So it aint ruining shit, those people are just bad at picking anime.
