Moe

moe(slang)

Moe (萌え, Moe? /mo’e/, pronounced “mo-eh” literally “budding”, as with a plant) is a Japanese slang word originally referring to fetish for or love for characters in video games or anime and manga. For example, 眼鏡っ娘萌え, meganekko-moe, “glasses-girl moe”, describes a person who is attracted to fictional characters with eyeglasses. The term has come to be used as a general term for a hobby, enthusiasm, or fetish (non-sexual). For instance, 鉄道萌え, tetsudō-moe, “train moe”, is simply a passionate interest in trains.
