Can anyone say moe?

At least they got Aoi Hana. Also, from the Anime Vice live blog, it sounded like they are trying to get some more shows, so there may be hope yet. Kind of disappointed that they apparently aren't simulcasting CANAAN, though.

Well, it's not just moe. With Juuden-chan it's also piss. Who doesn't get turned on by that? Maybe pissing yourself is now considered moe. Ugh.

The creator must have a urine fetish. I know he made an yuri manga once full of it.

...good lord, what a sorry showing. I hope they end up streaming something from the summer season with the potential to be decent besides Aoi Hana. And I'm not even sure about that one yet.

It never stops, does it, this moe fetish that has become the majority of anime otaku-dom.

Kanamemo television anime series (center picture). The company will be releasing the Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahō television anime series (right)


Gendai is center picture and Kanememo is left.

A lot of people like moe, so thats why it's being made...people should get over that and take what u can get , or don't watch it..doesn't hurt you not to watch it

Well sure, that'd be fine if that was the only thing they were making. But it's not. It's not that they are grabbing moe shows. That's kind of to be expected. It's the fact that it seems like they're only getting moe shows.

Funny, it looks like Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahō (and what the heck is the translation on that, magic something something something?) had an episode 0 as well, yet I don't see that on crunchyroll. Maybe they'll have it up in a few days...

Juuden-chan is ridiculous. It's exactly the thing Zac would hate: pointless fanservice, no story, no characterization, no anything, and lots of urine. But hey, this time it's yellow instead of clear.

Hmmm...
Generic moe and fanservice crap. No thanks.
If they want to increase their profile, they should instead be going after key titles from the season such as;
- Bakemonogatari
- Umineko no Naku Koro ni

I'm a subscriber and if this is all that we are getting then I am canceling. Time of Eve, Gintama and maybe Aoi Hana are not enough to keep me on as a subscriber. A bunch or generic talentless fanservice shows and nothing more how sad.

Something along the lines of "Well Understood Modern Magic".

Exactly. And it's not like there is a lack of other non-ecchi shows. In fact, despite what people want to believe, such are still in the minority.

I think you definitely have the wrong impression. Ironically, CR also gets a lot shoujo shows, as well as a whole variety of others and yet no one remembers or even realizes when they make just one announcement of acquiring a couple of shows people like to bash here.
