I think moe doesn't only apply to childish/girly characters, but to any attractive character which shows "cute" emotions which pretty much gives you "the feels".

I think that is why Hetalia was classified by some sites as moe (the first season only had 2 prepubescent boys as minor characters), because of characters like North Italy who act super cute or puppy-like despite being post-puberty. If that is so, I imagine the same will go for any mature-looking Touken Ranbu characters as well.
