In other words, it refers to anime fans that like anime with lots of cute girls and bishoujo 美少女 characters. It's derogatorily because they're admitting they'll watch anything if the author puts a cute girl in it. They're easily bought with cuteness.
If you give them moe, they'll flock to you like pigs.

ブヒる
Since moe pigs are pigs, they make the sound a pig makes: "oink," buhi ブヒ. As a verb, it becomes buhiru ブヒる, "to squeal." This verb would have the same meaning as moeru 萌える, "to feel moe," when in the context of moe buta.Manga: Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken 旦那が何を言っているかわからない件 (Chapter 1, 合わない趣味とハマったソリ)
- Context: a wife watches her husband watch Lucky Star.
- uhaa~~ moe~~
ウハ~~萌え~~
Woohah~~ moe~~ - buhii~~
ブヒィ~~
*oink* - suki danaa...
好きだなぁ・・・
[You] like [it], [don't you]...?
Usage
