The standard edition is still a combo pack, but in place of the artbook and thinpaks in a chipboard box is a episode guide leaflet in a normal DVD case without a chipboard box.
This is fine by me, except for the fact that the spindles that hold the discs do not budge when attempting to remove the discs. I literally had to set the case down on a hard flat surface while pressing down with my thumb and forcefully bending the discs out. I was glad I had some spare slim jewel cases for the luckily undamaged discs because there was no way I was going to place them back inside the original packaging.
Because I was bored to death and it was physically painful to watch.

You know, I've seen a number of Spice and Wolf posts but so far no mention of the OP? What's wrong with everyone:

bad gameplay lol
And not Max Heart?
People who say they are not a fan of moe confuse me. They are not a fan of thing they have a burning passion for? It makes no sense.
I mentioned it.
ive had more than my share of badly packaged discs. In particular the kind you describe where you literally have to bend the disc to take it off the spindle. I usually place the case on soft carpet that bends the spindle down and makes the disc float upward. I can take 5 minutes carefully extracting a disc packaged this way. As a result out of thousands of discs maybe a dozen in my collection have a scratch.
Its a beautiful and memorable opening but in no way compares to that adorable bouncy engrish ED.

That goes without saying.
I'll never understand how such a product came to be. Who made a disc cover one day, didn't bother to test how easy it is to remove a disc from it, but went ahead and made millions of flawed products. Shame of them.
metal gear rising was pretty moe
When you're picking up the pieces for Capcom everything is moe.
well nobody likes Max Heart..
There was a little cute idea that Sentai had with Squid girl where they designed some little squiggly spindle button that didnt hold discs correctly and most of the shipment got scratched. Rightstuf gave us replacements. I dont think packaging design is a high priority.

No they are not a fan enough of stuff like this:
They don't find it cute or adorable, most likely because its forced. Its like the characters area acting stupid/clumsy on purpose. Of course this is a big generalisation, there are some decent moe anime out there but its usually not very plot heavy at all.
That's only moe if one finds it moe.

I want to protect Raiden, he's vulnerable!
Kobato. 3
Episode in which Kobato plays cupid without realizing it, has a bunch of umbrellas, and gets a free apartment.
Fujimoto continues being an ass who's so wary of everyone, his frown might as well form a physical cross-arm block in front of his face
Also, appearance of totally-not-a-reference-to-Chi-from-Chobits twins

Sure if your using a literal meaning of the word however many people can immediately recognise when an anime is trying to be moe and classify that as moe. Basically when they try too hard to make it cute: blushes everywhere, gargantuan eyes, walking with kness facing inwards ( I have no idea why this is a thing) etc.

My mama always said, moe is as moe does.
Moe has several meanings. My personal definition of it basically means "this is cute to me"
Naturally some shows are both very good and very cute with the moe aesthetic so the notion that moe has no creativity is bunk.

Also even going by the original definition of moe anime has done that a very long time with characters specifically designed to be adorable clumsy and in need of being protected. Even western media uses this idea but they usually disguise it with a sexier character design.
Don't worry, dude. I'm the same way with harem stuff. Anything with more than two female characters = nope
What the fuck does moe even mean anymore.
Though I guess Mako could count as moe. And Nui as the moe many secretly (or not so secretly) wanted to kill all this time.
Nothing. It is the best show off the season.
Have you been petitioning anime threads to be called "Japanese cartoon" threads, because that'd be far more accurate?
...wait, what is a thread?
Perhaps he associates moe with cute bumbling useless girls, saw how incapable Ryuuko was, and made the logical conclusion.
Good, because I really like it.
I'm a fan of the term "japanimation".

Yeah the crying early in this episode was really unearned. Have no idea why the guy was so upset or why he did what he did. Crying without meaning means nothing to me. You have to give me context and motivation for that emotion. So this dude getting upset early in the episode was pretty unearned and even when they explained it still felt unearned. Jintan I can understand his context and motivation for crying..... whenever he gets around to that. The red head I can understand. Menma I can understand. All those characters have been fleshed out to the point where if they cry or get upset it's earned. This new guy not so much.
Anyways... It was still cool of him to save the red head from
. Props to him for helping a friend out in trouble even though (and he even acknowledged this fact) that it was a little cliche.
And that scene with Poppo at Jintan's house talking about helping
was actually sad. In that situation I can understand both characters plights.
