Galleria Time: Watchmen-tan

The Watchmen as moe girls. Why, Japan? WHY?

Found via Journalista, this is...weird. I'm not at all surprised to see manga-fied Watchmen characters out there, but moe-fied? Even then, I can imagine it for Laurie, but the Comedian as a cute l'il moe girl is weird. Doctor Manhattan asa cute l'il moe girl is...even weirder. Here are a few of 'em, or click here for the full collection.

Lemegeton: Seriously X.x;;

... I can see Laurie being drawn cutesy and such but not the Comedian or Rorschach... uhh... their actions in the comic are just so wrong for these images.

Nite Owl looks pretty darn cute as a girl though.

My mind is confused.

Dig Deeper into Moe

Moe (pronounce moh-eh) is a Japanese slang term for something one likes, and within the anime realm is used to refer to characters who inspire a protective sort of love-- usually because the characters seem to need someone to take care of them.
