Moe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moe_(slang)

To borrow from Neko ewen on forumRPG net:

The Japanese otaku subculture was originally more about sci-fi and giant robots, but at a certain point it got to be about having warm-fuzzy feelings for cute girl characters, a sensation called "moe". It ranges from the relatively innocent to lolicon stuff, but the core of it is fetishizing female characters who are in various ways emotionally non-threatening. There are a lot of popular moe characters who are underage, part-animal, androids, miniature, non-blood-related younger sisters, maids, etc. If a given anime is really strongly sexualizing underage girls--titles like Strike Witches or Kodomo no Jikan--it's most likely because it's aimed at moe otaku.

Never seen it. I'm just saying the characters presented in their positions, with their body types making them appear younger, makes me feel like I am clicking a group for kiddy porn.

Not a fan of moe, eh Matt?

Not to step on any one's toes here, but can we have a different image for the group? Every time I see this thing I feel like I am about to look at kiddy porn or something.

Considering that I'm a director of an anime con, I suppose I should join. :)

Also, Gatchaman! Bird Go!
