So Gainax got Konami'd? Just with maid cafes instead of pachinko? OK.

No? This sort of thing is fairly common, like that Kirby cafe Nintendo did recently. Plus Gainax is still making anime, they just lost a lot of their staff in previous years.

it's one of those words people pick up from anime or online discussion and independently self-define, resulting in any number of contextual definitions ("cute", "anime I don't like", "the cute anime I don't like", etc) that make it uselessly nebulous in the west, so

I was under the impression that the definition of moe was almost equally nebulous in Japan, being a word otaku invented to describe particular characters they liked.

yeah nerd colloquialisms are always goofy but for us it was one delivered via "heard an anime character say it that one time in '06"
