I hardly think that's fair. It's uninspired, sure, but not manipulative.

Also, I can't take that seriously. Zen is a spiritual experience many people have yet to truly go through. Moe is a trope (borderline cliche) that is easily identifiable with female (Yui from SAO, the cast of Lucky Star) and male examples (Shinji from NGE, Morty from Rick and Morty). It can be defined and categorized.
