ITT, we lay our otaku minds bare and list one hundred things which are moe! It's OK to fail, but remember, you should be aiming for the full hundred! If you run out of steam, feel free to continue in a later post! Here we go!
Catgirls * Maids * Tsundere * Meganekko * Miko * Nurses * Younger sisters who say "nii-san" * Younger sisters who say "onii-sama" * Princesses * Witches * Elves * Space Elves * Sylphs * Undines * Goddesses * Girls who read * Outcast girls * Hikikomori girls * Girls with scars * Girls who climb trees * Girls sleeping in a chair * Girls who wear men's shirts * Girls who are so plain they're invisible * Girls who aren't catgirls but act like cats anyway * Girls who come up to your window on a summer night * Girls with knives * Girls who speak very formally * Long skirts * Uniforms * Naked apron * Noto Mamiko * Chinami Nishimura * Chiyako Shibahara
Turns out I could only manage 33, but I'm sure some of you out there can do better. Feel free to copy from previous people's lists, but it has to be a list of things you, personally, think is moe!
Perpetual blushers * Girls collecting stuffed animals * Genki Chatterboxes *
3 is kind of a bit less than 100.
Ponytail * Pigtail * Twintail * Braid * Ahoge * Short hair * Vertical rolled hair * Odango hair * Headband * Hairband * Black straight long hairstyle * Forehead * Nekomimi * Usamimi * Elf ears * Tail * Tactile * Drill * Sukumizu * Stockingless legs * Pumps * Tank top * Pajamas * Ribbon * Kimono * Yukata * Hakama * China dress * Knee socks * Bloomer * Y-shirt * Black tights * Wedding dress * Tennis wears * Striped Bikini * Tsurupeta * flat-chested * Big boobs * Clumsy * Crybaby * Boyish * Feral * Dreamful * Loli * Yamato Nadeshiko * Very tall * Quaint locution * Yuri * Spoilt * Otaku * Sempai * Kohai * Chinese * Kansai accent * Gaijin * HARF * Twin * Idol * Returnee * Widow * Stewardess * Pragmatist * Teacher * Policewoman * Nursery teacher * Scientist * Magical girl * Fighting girl * Girl with guns * Amnesia * Vampire * Android * Cyborg * Iincho * Promised to be a fiancee at a young age * Childhood friend * Cousin * Hocchan and Masumin (Horie Yui and Asano Masumi)
By the way, we use ATTRIBUTE or MOE ATTRIBUTE (属性, 萌え属性) in otaku world, instead of moe views or things.
Great!
The "One hundred views of moe" was actually a silly reference to "One hundred views of Mt. Fuji", which is the English name of "Fugaku hyakkei".

What he said :(
Guys that look sick (example : http://img374.imageshack.us/img374/1074/ianlookssick2cs2.jpg)
don't forget girls can have moe too ^^ they call me the queen of moe ^^
http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/1443/02hb5.png
^ bishiness ^_^
made me have alot 'a moe
Guys that look sick are not moe! Most of the time guys don't look moe either. Maybe Bridgette or Watarase Jun could be moe.
Guys can most definitely be moe! I am a straight male and even I admit this. Things that make guys moe:
foggy glasses so you can't see the eyes, being completely unaware a girl who likes him, being so wrapped up in academics that he is perpertually lost, school uniforms, trying to act tough but failing miserably, being absolutely incompetant in a relationship but in an indearing innocent way, having no understanding of why girls like pretty clothing/perfume/make up type of thing, boy who is constantly failing to confess his feeling to his crush, outdoorsy type, little brother figure in a large group of older people, scrapes and bruises, I don't need your help!, suits, ill fitting suits, wage slave, half asleep, perpetually late, running with toast in mouth!, girls are icky!
Alot of moe features are gender neutral!
Remember, moe is often/usually non-sexual and not particularly gender specific. If anyone feels like a challenge list gender-neutral moe.

Moe? o.o...Did I miss something?....--.--; Maybe I should read the post first...
O.O That was the scariest picture I have ever seen...faint....>>27

Of course boys can be moe.
Girls who add extra lines to their truth/state tables just to make sure the rows match up
>>44 That's a pretty specialised kind of moe you have going on there. A current crush?
Girls who count the number of tiles on the floor and write the number on their hand with a blue pen.
Girls with hair over one eye all the time!
For some reason you only see this on Cyborg 009, I might have to turn gay to fully experience moe.
>>47
I think a lot of emo girls have that going on.
My 16 year old housemate was like that.

Now that was the kind of moe I wanted to see with any modern anime
Girls who were raised in the Church of Latter Day Saints but slowly lose their religion.
Only that religious girl in Seasons of Sakura would live that part
>>62
Which is why we need more moe stuff out of the West. There's nothing more beautiful than corrupting the innocence of a deeply religious, Jesus-fearan loli...
What about the way around like that Mai-HiME person who converted?
Madarame * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis * lolis .....
Nothing beats the loli who only talks through her sketchbook notes
>>66
What about a loli who only talks through doodles and drawings in her sketchbook? (Say she has some sort of bizarre mental condition that makes her unable to formulate linguistical output...)
I faint's reading on this thread!
I faints reading on this thread!
Notice my example was Shion rather than some Ichigo Mashimaro meme
>>71
Ahem! pokes
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidamari_Sketch
Tried reading that but the puns are not translated well in English
lol
Also the character designs were painful but nowhere like usual moe
an attempt to create a new style I suppose??
Those are created knowing readers could be split into two extremes
Mikuru Asahina from Haruhi Suzumiya. Nuff said lol
As said by Haruhi herself ;)
Dickgirls. Did someone already say dickgirls? Definitely dickgirls.... Or, tomboys, anyways.
Futa people are hot even more when underage which makes them sholi
