Moé: (from the verb ↗moeru = "to be infatuated", pronounced moé or mo-eh) Titles that have at least one character generally young in age, with a naive or innocent view of life, and "some obvious sympathetic weakness they work hard to correct" would be considered moe. A character or personality trait that "elicits a protective or loving response from the audience" would also qualify (quotes taken from ↗Wikipedia:Moe). In modern terms moe has been evolving to the point where moe may apply to objects and not just young girls. Unfortunately moe can be taken to the extreme (see: "Lolicon").
Shoujo: (Target Group) (↗shoujo (少女) = "young lady", "virgin", "maiden"; opposite of "Shounen") A style of artwork and story created for girls (usually of age 10 to 18). Characterized by plots that focus on emotion and relationships, and art that tends toward the florid, with lanky characters and rather effeminate (but always attractive) men. Mostly popular with teenagers in Japan, most shoujo-style work has not spread widely, but it does occasionally gain recognition outside Japan (some examples are Revolutionary Girl Utena and X). The most common uses are "shoujo manga", literally meaning "girls' comics", and "shoujo anime" meaning "girls' animation." Also romanized as "shojo" (actually a different word "処女" in Japanese).

Several months after Nanoha first became a Magical Girl, she still is unable to personally meet with her new close friend, Fate Testarossa, who is being tried in the Space / Time Administration Bureau for her association in the Lost Logia case. They still communicate through video-mail and hope to see each other in-person once again. Their reunion is not a happy one, unfortunately, as several people who call themselves "Velka-Type Knights" battle Nanoha above the city. Their objective is to fill the pages of the Book of Darkness by stealing the magical power of anyone they can find. Nanoha and Fate must once again team up to stop their plans and save the world.
