Only third world Dragonball fags and Narutards do.

People that hate moe barely know what moe is.

Only women and manchildren hate moe
Moe is for grown men

I only hate moe slice of life shit where the show literally has nothing going for it but cute girls and there happens to be an infestation of those shows. I just need more reason to watch an anime, whether it be drama, excitement or deep characterization.

Barley moe? What's that?

Is it the cuteness or innocence that people hate?

most 'moe' shows lack substance, it's usually just cute girls doing cute things that you forget about after watching an episode, hence why it has most likely earned derision from most.

'moe' exists for a certain target audience, one that likes exaggerated features and a SoL environment that's care-free and innocent, a form of escapism perhaps. But some people love it, some people hate it, like any genre.

You user. You are barely moe, and that's whitout even trying, cutie.

Because he was a big meanie to the other stooges

You don't remember being a teenager and in a desperate attempt to become an adult you denounced everything childish?

because their anime industry is utter shit and they need to blame it on something

Would you say its one of the more popular genres or is it a smaller audience than most of the mains like adventure and fantasy etc.?

But every genre has that.

I love moe

Alot of Moe/CGDCT haters are teens, no? They aren't even the target audience for that shit, adult men are. I remember being 15 and hating moe shows, and now 10 years later they make up most of the anime I watch.

At some point as you get older, moe just suddenly clicks with you. Probably because it's a good form of escapism to get away from the worries and stress of the adult world.

Because it's literally bottom of the barrel trash tier that only pathetic otakus could ever like because of how detached they are from reality.

>the virgin edgy teen poster
>the Chad resonable commentator

That's actually how it went for me. The adult life came, I started working like crazy, soon problems and stress started pilling up and my life kinda went out of control for a while. Then suddenly came the interest in Moe media, both with anime and vidya. Many people have friends and family to hang on when problems arise, but not everyone can depend on them, so I don't think I would have been able to deal with my problems without cute anime girls healing me. There's no doubt that Moe is good for the tired heart.

Sorry for blogposting.

The irony is that moe still has much better writing and character design/progression than shonen.
Honestly I used to love shonen like Naruto or Hxh. Now I find Naruto to be obnoxious Hunter to have just stupid writing, and as someone working in a job after going to college I find slice of life shit like New Game! entertaining

I appreciate the answer user. Only difference is I started watching in my late teens before adulthood hit. Definitely agree it helps with today's stress though.

I don't hate moe, in fact I haven't watched many SoL shows, but I usually don't like it when generic uninspired moe characters are used in a heavier setting. Cute anime girls are cute, I can't complain about that per se. Besides, any character can be moe, not by the design but by the things they make you feel.
Don't forget MANime fags.

I want to fuck karen so hard she would never be able to walk again

Because it's literally just watching characters that are physically attractive/cute say cute stuff for 22m straight. There's often very little enjoyable plot, character development, or anything.

That's too lewd user.

You are literally watching something because you think with your penis.

It's not a hate of 'moe' but a hate of brainlets.

Only roasties and faggots can hate moe.

Pedo shit

I want another Kujo to fuck me so hard I would never be able to walk again

People don't understand markets, and assume there is a fixed level of anime production. When a show they don't like is made, this is therefore a show they do like that wasn't made.

CGDCT used to be the most popular thing a few years ago but it kinda got replaced by isekai shit over the years and the autistic behavior of some of its fans led to a good deal of resentment

>CGDCT only got dislike since the popularity of isekai
Off yourself.

so are we talking about moe or CGDCT? please decide

I'm convinced that people who don't like Moe have something wrong with them mentally

I agree. People who dislike Moe have something mentally wrong with them.

People who dislike moe are alright.

Either because of their own insecurities, like teens etc. (example: ), or because of false sense of superiority (example: ). Trolls don't count.

>feel attracted to drawing
>can't feel attracted to drawing at the risk of perceiving oneself as loser
>externalize this attraction as hate
It's not really a mystery.

But I fap to hentai all the time. That doesn't mean I'm going to enjoy a show about that shit on the same level that I enjoy an actual good anime.

The logic still applies, the attraction I'm talking about is moe in general, not just desire to rub peepee. I'm sorry that you hate yourself.

That's not at all what it is. Solid bait, though.

>people
I wouldn't call them people.

It's pretty niche, and not all moe is created equal. You've got to be in a very specific mindset to want to watch cute girls do cute things for literally no reason, for upwards of 30mins at a time.
More than anything, while there are a few exceptions, the vast majority of moe-centric shows are max-serialization, cookie-cutter, dime-a-dozen bullshit.

When moe isn't okay:
> the show's a carbon copy of a dozen other shows/archetypes that've each been done a dozen times over
> the show's singular selling point is supposed to be the presence of cute female cartoon characters
> the show uses sex jokes like they're free laughs

When moe's okay:
> The show's actually funny, and/or entertaining, it just coincidentally has cute protagonists

I agree with this, but sometimes even sex jokes can work in a moe anime if done right, like Kobayashi's Dragon Maid or Sabagebu for example (and they are practically opposites in tone).

I don't hate it, it just feels so cynical I have a hard time enjoying almost any of the shows.

This guy gets it

Who are you kidding? Yourself? The world looks upon you as a sad joke.

Only Sissy-in-training people love that crap.

I don't hate moe elements or CGDCTs as a genre. The issue is when it's not good and people watch it anyways, but that applies to basically every genre anyways.

Well those still aren't the reasons for hating it. OP asked about hate. You may dislike it for various reasons, but to outright hate it, there's gotta be something wrong with you, or your perception, by which I mean hating the people who like it and not the shows themselves.

Because it's MLP-tier, faggot

Moe is just one of many elements of a show. When people say they hate moe, they mean they hate the generic CGDCT that we all know, but moe can be found in many things, including murderous grandpas.

And CGDCT, like every other genre, can be done good or bad. Usually people who hate the whole genre have just seen the worst ones.

There's literally a bunch of responses in this thread disagreeing with you, and all you can do is discredit someone by calling them a joke? As if any of this shit we talk about actually matters in real life. Get your head out of your ass, or fuck off.

Because they're plebs.

Of course all of it matters, what you do in life matters, are you not alive when using the internet? Typing out a denial of liking 'moe' anime because you think with your penis is like arguing that you go to strip clubs to admire interpretive dance.

The only person you are kidding is yourself, and THAT is what makes you a joke, the denial itself.

Saying the only reason people watch moe is because of their dicks is fucking stupid. They watch it mainly for the atmosphere, if they watched it for their dicks then moe fanservice shows would sell better, right? They historically have sold worse Hinako Note bombed for that among other things.

I'm not in denial, I watch for the cute girls obviously. I also watch for the comfy atmosphere after a long day, and the relatability that can be provided by stories in the genre. If you don't understand that, I can't help you.

And no, arguing about anime on the Internet does not affect real life. We inevitably have personas we put on outside of our own home, so this stuff generally doesn't get brought up in the same manner.

That grandpa is so moe.

>people
>hate Moe?
Well, if they actually hate moe, would they be really people, user?

>I'm not in denial, I watch for the cute girls obviously

There you go, anything else is just poor justification. No, you don't relate to 8-12 year old japanese school girls, just like bronies don't relate to cartoon ponies. It's fetishism, plain and simple.

This is the internet, not the locker room, just be honest, that is all I ask.

This guy know what he's talking about

>This is the internet locker room
Hi, /Reddit/

>8-12
>bronies
Now it's obvious you're trolling. You had a good run with that other retard you were talking with, but you just blew your load senpai.

>be honest
Ironic.

>Why do people hate Moe?
youtube.com/watch?v=xhazYOT2me0
It's me! Moe! In a sailor suit! Me! Moe! With a loli! It's so out of character! Ain't that worth nothin'?!

Hey, I was just giving him the benefit of the doubt. Lesson learned, I'm out.

Is reading comprehension so hard? Stop watching anime if it is affecting your education, guys.

Moe posting ruined Sup Forums.

Because he isn't as good as Larry or Curly.

Where would you take Karen on a date?

Britain's Got Talent

I love moe but I hate people who post moe on Sup Forums, they're all horny teens who don't enjoy it the way I do and just get off to the porn.

Nah, you aren't alone user. I'm not too fond of that type of thing myself. I don't particularly have a problem of them being into it for a different reason than myself, but those posts are pretty dominant in the moe threads.

This, but to be honest the majority of Sup Forums is "I want to fuck this character" type posts.

I want to fuck this poster.

I want to fuck the poster that this poster responded to.

They play too much videogames which are edgy by nature.

I want to cuck this poster

it's like moeru to burn right?

Mecca

I do not hate it but it's boring.

Well this is something I never expected to see someone post on Sup Forums. Yeah, I get annoyed at overbearing lewdposting too, to the point were the very word "lewd" grates on me. I don't watch the cute girl shows I do to get off, I watch them because they're charming. I have no desire to see the character's vagina pushed in to my eye holes.

It sounds fucked up but cute things make me angry, I become enraged seeing moe content, don't know why just do. Makes me want to strangle them, same with cute animals.

I don't mind if it's done by another cute girl

Indeed. Moe heals the broken and tired soul. Moe be my therapy.

Stop forcing your shit meme.

Because it's for lonely virgin pedophiles.

Another debate won by radical centrism

Probably watching moe is closest thing for us comparable to having 5 years old daughter. Some father-like insticts kicking in, when in absence of real thing. ;-;

>deep
im going to stop you right there. anyone that uses the word "deep" on Sup Forums, is obnoxious

why the fuck are you putting moe in quotations?

I do though; I despise like 90% of moe-based shows, at least as many of the people that support them.
They're vapid cash-grabs pandering to a pathetic common denominator, with principally no effort put into the production beyond making sure the girls are extra cute, and some times not even that much. The people who fall for it are the worst part though, because if they didn't the shit would die out and they'd be forced to write an actual plot every now and again. The flip-side: I've got enough brain cells to watch one or two sidesteps and decipher whether or not it's an actual show, or if it's the prior, aka: empty garbage.
Blindly hating shows because it's protagonist(s) are cute is something most people grow out of, or they grow out of cartoons all together. For most people, it's around their mid 20s; they'll hit a point where they'll start dropping hobbies that aren't for them, and the ones that they do keep they'll often become more participator and analytical regarding the hobby and the subject of the hobby it's self; in this case: anime/cartoons/moe shit. In doing so they'll either realize that shows staring cute girls can have actual plots, and/or they'll simply come understand that it's just not for them, and either disregard the sub-genre or embrace it's better parts.
Sup Forums is one of the few places where the spergs are in a high enough concentration that the 16 year olds and the 26 year olds are frequently indistinguishable from one another. Every board on this site has it's polarizing topics, but what you'l find is if you actually go out and interact with the fan base irl, or even on some other forums, you'll find that, while these topics are prevalent, they're nowhere near as decisive or toxic as they are here, because nobody old enough to be on Sup Forums should actually care.

> TL;DR
It's an age thing. You mature, and you either grow into or out of it, or just accept it as a part of the sub-genre.

It's derivative as fuck now and is kind of fucked up in a way.
It manipulates the parental instincts of the male and female audience members.

It's an electronic drug that helps soothe the deep longing that the audience has for creating and take care of a child.

...

people who unironically use the word "otaku" are the worst kind of scum

This cat is very cute.

All media manipulates the audience, this isn't anything new. It's not like a drug, because it's not physically addictive. Otherwise, anything can be mentally addicting if you allow it to be.

Strip club.

People who hate moe are insecure faggots who deny their feelings. If your image is that of a stern, emotionless guy, you can't admit to liking cute things because it would make your entire world crumble.

My dude your brain runs on chemicals and those chemicals can be just as addictive as anything made in a factory or a crack house.

Why is Karen so shit? She ruined the whole episode.

I don't think they're anywhere near as powerful as what you make them out to be. Your other functions can overpower them.

>hate Moe

That's not how moe works senpai.

You think the same doesn't apply to violent and sexual content, dude? If anything sex in media is the most addictive thing around currently, followed by violence. You can tell just by the horrifically autistic reaction you get from people if you so much as suggest that it be toned down a bit.

Have you've heard the voices of thousands of autists crying out at once because Capcom covered up Cammy's vagina in SFV? That's a display of addiction far more potent and of a higher scale than what cute girls doing cute things garner.
