Just to show that even people within the industry have a hard time grasping moe,there's this quote from
this interview (article in french) with Yamaga Hiroyuki, on of the founders of gainax who's still a producer there.

I seriously hate the interviewer for not following up with a "what the hell do you mean?" question
So really,even if
a show itself would use moe in its title and synopsis I still am curious if the people working on the show really know much about the subject.
