But I already had moe for Mos Burger, so I'm offended. Their environmental-awareness wrappers are ka-wa-ii!

Now, what *I* find amusing is the fact that the page linked in the article used the Laughing Man face from Stand Alone Complex to cover up the faces of any bystanders who happened to be in the shot.

Megumi =

In her case, Megumi =

Those would be "drill" (ドリル) fries then. Cool

Since this is all based on Mos Burger, couldn't we have a Xenogear pun instead? Cool

So what is in a "moe burger"?


I don't know, but I definitely don't want to think about their Special Sauce.

Yay, I've exhausted the most obvious jokes! Time for GOOD material! Cool

I sort of get the maid cafe thing with the type of food you get there, but this is just a greese joint right?


I would think so, (at least the Japanese equivalent, anyway) which is why I would think Anna Miller's would be preferable over either of these joints.

Is showing the faces some kind of legal issues like violating privacy rights or is it just considered polite to cover them up?
