I'll be blunt. It's a m.o.e series which means it has cute girls with lots of sexual innuendos all over the place with subpar plots. This time the plot seems to be a homage of Ultraman.

In conclusion, I want to see MORE of it! Twisted Evil

1) Master of Entertainment, production company of Ultimate Girls.
2) 萌え. It's difficult to translate... Embarassed Most M.O.E female characters are moe in various degrees.

It's Gunslinger Girl (singular, no "s").

This kind of comparison is totally meaningless. Please stop.

Not if you listen to the geniuses at the ICCR. I've intentionally put the s on to see how quickly someone could pick up on it. The first time was kinda slow, but THIS is what I expect. Thanks for the help, my article's looking better and better Wink

Anyway, now to research MOE.

Occording to Tomohiro Machiyama, sometimes moe can also be an expression of adoration for innocent girls (and usually in a protective, brotherly sense, so not always sexually). Example, one could say, "I get moe from Kinomoto Sakura."

There is also some people to take the word away from its original, innocent origin, and turn it into more of a sexualized fetish. So if people dig maid costumes, they would have "maid moe" and if they liked catgirls, they would have "catgirl moe" and so forth. The word has since come to take on quite a few meanings since its original verb.

It must have been today. I swear it wasn't there earlier. Perhaps Abunai submitted the entry, then posted the link as if the entry was there the whole time.
