Tuesday Otaku Debate: Mitsukuni Haninozuka vs Momiji Sohma

Last weeks debate was insane. I didn't expect to see that kind of turn out for our first ever music debate but everyone seemed rather pleased with the subject matter. Some people are pretty passionate about the musicians they love and I think that was reflected in our results. By my count, Utada Hikaru wins it 33 to 22, though at one point Gackt had twice as many votes as her. She made more than a comeback and took the victory. I love them both, though arguably I feel Gackt is a bit more talented in terms of actual musicianship. Hikki on the other hand, has a lovely voice and sings some great songs. Even I really can't take away from that.

Utada - 33 votes

Gackt - 22 votes

See the next debate after the jump.

 

Next Monday is a very special day for us, so I felt I'd go ahead and pick a debate worthy of it. There's really no point in hiding it, but if you cared enough to click on this debate, then you'll be in for a treat next week. These two characters are actually quite similar, both are men, both are blond, and voiced by the same Seiyuu in Japan. They are what Japan probably sees that the male epitome of moe. That's right, guys can be moe too. So basically, it comes down to this, who is the most moe?

We have Mitsukuni "Honey" Haninozuka, who is obsessed with stuffed animals, cake, and other sweets. His birthday only comes once every four years, due to being born on the 29th day of February. He's questionably close to his cousin, and likes to carry around a stuffed bunny. He's actually a bit old, but certainly doesn't look it, and I suppose that'd be the biggest part of being moe-- looking the part.

On the other hand, there's Momiji Sohma-- as cute as he is androgynous. He actually rocks a girls uniform with a pair of shorts while at school. Ironically, he's just as old, yet youthful as Mitsukuni, and comes with the same sunny demeanor, despite having a very depressing family life. Then again, being rich and having his entire life served to him on a silver platter could be responsible for that. So which one strikes you as the most moe? Mitsukuni is getting my vote.
