What i think is in stake here is that James doesn't want an ass shot of an 8 year old as a reward from performing a 20-combo move, and I totally sympathize with him on that regard.

Lillian Fourhand is a great run'n'gun but I'll be dammed if the design doesn't raise an eyebrow.
But then again, that picture. That's two Maria-sama ga Miteru characters:



Is the problem in design choices or the usage of females themselves?

Besides, is moe automatically filler? Can't it be a part of the symmetrical experience? Even if we adopt luvcraft's definition (I like it, but still have some issues with it), I can see a game making that a central concept. Something Princess Maker-like.
There's a perfect example : idolm@ster (btw I cry when I masturbate) is 100% real-definition (and High Definition, even) moe.

If you mean strictly over-18 adults, there are fewer, but characters like Yomiko Readman from Read or Die are moe.
Is "moe" or becomes "moe"? I don't feel like Yumiko is directly moe, but it fits on a particular theme and flavor of the bishoujo theme that favors moe-themed... fancruft? Simmilarly, Marmite characters aren't directly moe, but it's often approached that way. So, it's needed to separate characters that are born as moe and those that are made moe by the fans themselves.

Relating to age, for example, there is alot of "moe" sentitivity on a good amount of the DOA cast, especially in the XBV games.

Yeah, Gainax and the money saving, huh? See also: Gunbuster.
Actually, see also the original Ghost in the Shell movie elevator scene. Someone should mix both of those and youtube it.
