Moe is the element of a character that turns on someone. I hope that doesn't need explaining ;)

Moe perhaps worst idea that can happen with anime other than harem

moé 萌え
(n) the want to dote upon someone
(v) to feel moé
(adj) evoking moé

This is the official definition of moé as decreed by SHII I, EMPEROR OF THE INTERNET.

Let's spell moé correctly to allow easy pronunciation!

15 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-11-30 22:31 ID:+IEUgBrX

I think it should be moë. The umlaut is superior.

16 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-12-01 08:14 ID:VGIn/1Uk

Moee?

You know best than expect other people to bother with extra accent

Probably the best definition so far.

The problem with defining it in terms of what most people see is that the fans have broken into two camps: those whose hearts burn with the desire to protect, and those whose hearts burn with the desire to defile.

20 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2008-12-10 13:15 ID:06/FBWpn

You meant like those whose hearts burn with the desire to deflower

21 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-01-10 15:13 ID:MHf2z5V0

Lucky Star is Moe and Haruhi.

22 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-01-12 23:02 ID:nkhWz/XX

Other than Mikuru nothing Haruhi appeared moe not even Ito artwork

23 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-01-13 23:35 ID:G38C154z

Moe is more like a fetish and strong liking to. Usually something cute. You have your typical glasses wearing moe. You have the cat eared girl moe. Whatever fetish with something really cute. MOST of the time.

24 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-01-14 03:06 ID:SHTDfECO

The moe-er it is, the more satisfying it is to corrupt and/or protect it.

25 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-01-14 22:11 ID:nkhWz/XX

Reverse traps can be moe though you want to protect their clothing

You think Moe is not that Simpsons bartender we all know and love?

29 Name: No name-san : 2009-01-26 01:19 ID:iiyzfy2X

Do Otaku really are an eyesore as its stereotype states?
Or are there any Otaku that is really sociable to everybody.
You know, not a social outcast.

And no, i'm not saying the word Otaku to talk about anime ota
I'm saying about Otaku in general.

You know you're supposed to put "more" instead of the suffix "-er" when you can't naturally apply it?

32 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-04-12 19:31 ID:F85ejH7O

Elements of turn on lol

this:

A Japanese slang term (ironically, first employed by otaku) used to refer to the fetish for or sexual attraction to idealized people, usually a fictional perfect young girl.

Since then, moé has come to be used as a general term for a hobby, mania or fetish (non-sexual or otherwise). This is contrasted with otaku, which would be taking the specific hobby, mania or fetish to harmful levels.

36 Name: Random Anime Otaku : 2009-08-02 05:28 ID:9+4M4/23

clumbsy with long hair and big breasts (extra points if they wear glasses)
they're typically really shy
I think of Miyuki or Mikuru usually
