Had my doubts about Moetan but found it to be interesting enough to stick on the watch list after the first episode.

Having said that, the latest episode I saw was 02 and I think the latest show is 12? ^^;

The quality of these Kotobukiya Moetans are surprisingly good for trading figures as you can see from the photos. I think each cost about 600 yen.

Thanks to Terao-san who runs Akibaos for the complete set ^^

wasn't too keen on watching Moetan after 2 episodes.
I may finish up watching if it is short but I doubt.
The trading figures no doubt is cute ^^

After the heavily censored KnJ, this is the best pedo animu around. (*´Д`)ﾊｧﾊｧ

Wow, not too many enjoy Moetan eh?

Buuuuut there are those who are fanatics!

Moetan is one of my favorite TV anime's at the moment. Even though the fan-subs are slow or the subbers just quit, i'll never give up looking for new fan-sub releases.....specifically since they stopped at episode 5, befor ethe so called contarversal episode 6 which is still a mystery to me.

Anyway i love what i see in the gallery. Hopefully one day all of those will make it to the states and i'll be a glad owner of each of those Ink Nijihara/Pastel Ink figures i see.

I like Moetan's Character design. Not to mention my Significant Other likes these as well.

Moetan is quite possibly the second most wrong show I have ever seen (the first being the incomparable Kodomo no Jikan. How the heck did they get away with all that?)
All I can say is, don't be fooled by the cute figures!!!

Still trying to get my head around the fact that the basis of such a perverted show was an english teaching book...

Not so sure about this one. I have so much on my list now -both drama and anime- from last season. Really want to catch up first.

Yes, very nice quality on the figures. Wouldn't mind having those...

Moetan in her seira fuku is cute. Too bad Moetan isn't that popular leading to the lack of subs. I enjoy watching it for the comedy, the echi is a bonus ;p.

Iveseen the 1st 2 eps of Moetan i think....does it have a talking duck in it somewhere around the 1st n 2nd eps? i cant remember but i defo reconise that name.

Im still hung over the fact that Claymore came to an end :( I have found myself feeling empty & lonely as there is no longer such an awesome anime to keep me company.

I've seen the first 2 episodes--it's pretty good so far, though it is certainly very pedo. I've become somewhat desensitized to that sort of thing though, so I just ignore it and enjoy the show.

The figures are cute! But I think, it's largely because you're really good at taking their photos :) the lighting, angle and everything.

I have to say these are better than the other moetan figures out right now. The last ones are really small

How tall are these? I've been interested in them for a while. I adore Moetan.
