This is just a SAD, SAD, SAD, depiction of male interest in moe. This is why Kevin won't live a normal life in every comic strip which makes for a fun read.

But neither Potemayo nor Guchuko are (much) incapacitated by their stubby limbs. Guchuko even manages to rain death and destruction all around her, and then tape everything back together.

Yeah, but they are still literal moe-blobs. Very cute and useful blobs, but still blobs. And Guchuko is ADORABLE.

The Kuu-tan arc are the best ANN! strips so far.


Better than Miaka? Better than Ultimate Mop Daisuke DX?

No, Kuu-tan is good, but it isn't the best... yet.


It's sad to be saying this, but the Kuu-tan strips are the first ANN! strips that I can really relate to. I'm a big fan of the types of shows "Kuu-tan" parodies and I'm a huge moe figure collector--Kuu-tan looks just like a Nendoroid with the arms and legs removed!

Oh gawd, no noooooo!!!

Now we just need a theme song. I can think of something really insipid sounding for this show. I wonder what Paola will think of this. Gotta bring her into this mess.

The moe, it begins its deadly infection...

Is it just me, or does the Kuu character scream "make me into pillows"? I mean, she's already pillow-shaped, it can't be THAT hard...


Maybe ask thar woman who did that Nina cosplay a couple months back.

See, this is why Moe shows should be banned. They brainwash ordinary guys into becoming piles of goo themselves.


I have yet to become a pile of goo!

Good comic this week as well. But about time we move for a new story!

The only thing I can think of in relation to this show (Kuu-tan) is the Scienfic experiment that I will one day preform upon myself:
Which way of summoning my persona works best, attack that breaks the AT Field or by use of the classic Envoker?

because If I was stuck in a world where stuff like Kuu tan existed (and it wasn't trying to be meta about the subject of inprobable body setups) I think that I'd need a little help during the Dark Hour of Moe.

Or Somthing, I'm on a massive Persona kick right now.

If you are on a massive Persona kick right now, be sure to read the latest X-button. Smile There is more Dark Hour fun to be had there.

But as much fun as this moe anime is, I agree that it is time to move on another show. Or bring back Ultimate Mop Daisuke; that is one of my favorites and I must find out how the latest arc ends!

Wow, I haven't laughed this hard from a fan strip since the last time Sexy Losers was still funny.

Hah, i'm actually really enjoying this whole arc, just because i have in fact seen these kind of shows before.

However, I don't know why, but Kuu-Tan scares the ever loving crap out of me. And this is from a guy who has been mocked for his weakness for "Cute/Moe-Moe" things. But she just freaks me out, man.

It's like someone melted a Anime-fied barbie doll and taught it to eat happiness. i suspect i know why she doesn't have a torso: because she doesnt have enough "Terror Energy" to grow back the rest of her after the villagers attempted to destroy her with holy talismans and acid!

...um, sorry, went a little off the deep end there. good comic, looking forward to the next.
