“Moe” characters used to be designed by designers and directors based on their feelings and experiences. In the present study, perceptual experiments revealed the relationship between facial and vocal designs and how they were perceived, and a scientific basis for designing a moe character was constructed. The results of the experiments showed that a moe character possessed a rounder face and more widely-opened eyes than a beautiful female characters. Moreover, a voice of a moe character showed a high fundamental frequency, a high spectrum centroid and a high speed of speech. These characteristics suggested an immature girl.
