From some deep, dark corner in the back of jaalin’s mind…
从Jaalin大脑的极深极暗处而来……
Anime girls are the best. Unlike those found in 3d-land, anime girls were created for the sole purpose of entertaining me – decades in the making, the science of creating an anime girl has been perfected down to the little personality quirks, the glimmer in their eyes, and the nuances in their voice (Aisia lisp, anyone?) I thank these character designers from the bottom of my heart, cuz man oh man do they do their job well.
动画少女是最好的。不像那些在3D大陆上随处可见的，动画少女被创造的唯一目的就是娱乐我。十年多的发展中，如何创造动画少女这门科学已经趋于完美，甚至她们的丁点怪癖，她们眼中的不同光彩，她们声音中的细微区别（爱纱咬着舌儿说话，还有别人会吗？）都是其产物。我打自心底感谢这些角色设计者，因为，哦天，我的天，他们把他们的活干得棒极了。
In most cases, anime girls are perfect. Understanding that “perfect” has many interpretations as the modern anime girl is assembled from a plethora of desirable traits, the one aspect that rarely varies is the shape of their body. Sure, there are differences in height and cup size, but for the most part, there is a singular template on which all bodies are constructed from.
在大部分的情况下，动画少女是完美的。关于那个“完美”的理解有着诸多解释，因为现代的动画少女是由大量容易引起欲望的特性组合而成，其中唯一很少变化的是她们女性身体的外形。当然，在身高和CUP大小上还是有区别的，但就身体的大部分来说，世界上只有一个模板，在这个模板上大自然构造了所有人的躯体。
You know my favorite part of it? It’s not the stunning neckline or the way clothes hang so lustfully off the bosom, nor their sculpted stomachs or their itty bitty waist. Those are all fantastic, but they all pale in comparison to none other than:
你知道我最喜欢是身体的哪个部分吗？不是足以使人犯晕的领口，不是衣服以极为淫荡的方式垂下直到离开胸部，更不是她们完美塑型的小腹部或者她们极细小的腰部。那些虽然都是梦寐以求的，但是与一件事物相比，它们却是那么的苍白无力。恩，不是别的，正是：
The ankles. Goddamn, anime chicks have the best freakin ankles.
脚踝。天杀的，动画少女们拥有最动人心魄且令人无法自拔的脚踝。
Remember that that one scene in Densha Otoko where they go to Miina’s fan session, and Matsunaga-shi kept screaming for Miina to show her ankles? I thought that was the weirdest thing, but it kinda makes sense now. Kinda.
还记得《电车男》里有一个场景吗？主角一行人去参加美娜粉丝见面会，当美娜展示自己脚踝时，松永勇作在一边不停地鼓噪。我以前认为这是一件极为不可思议的事情，但是现在却让我有了那么一点点感觉，我是说一点点……
Why ankles?
为什么是脚踝？
For starters, it’s not something that’s in the common list of attractive traits, but when you ask specifically, most people would come to a consensus on an attractive ankle. It is, after all, the area where the long, shapely legs meet the petite, delicate foot – quite a special area that holds very little sexual appeal and yet is a crucial component of an attractive character. Without the ankles, you can’t have sexy legs!
首先，脚踝并不在通常的女性魅力诸要素的表格里，但是当你明确地询问别人关于脚踝的问题，大部分人都会在“吸引人的脚踝”这点上达成一致。怎么说呢，毕竟这个区域是长而匀称的腿部和小而精巧的足部交汇的地方——相当特别的地方，虽然只有一点点杀必死的看点，却仍然是一个具有吸引力的角色的至关紧要的组成部分，因为没有好的脚踝，你就不可能有一双性感的美腿。
For example, take that pic of Nagi. Normally known for her loli appeal, this pic makes her out to be so much more. Sure, most of the attention is on the place that allows our imagination to run, but it’s those ankles that are right there and complete the look. They are, fundamentally, what give those spectacular legs their slender shape.
举个例子，拿那张凪的截图来说。通常的共识是她具有的LOLI属性，但是这张截图却使她离开这一点成为具有更多内容的存在。当然，大部分的注意力还是集中在了某个能让我们的想象力自由飞翔的地方，但是恰巧是定位于恰当位置上的脚踝完善了整个画面。它们是给予那双引人入胜的双腿以苗条的外形的根本所在。
Anime ankle science takes this a step further – custom-fit shoes. Notice how Nagi’s shoes have a strap right above the ankle? While not absolutely necessary, this plays an important role in accentuating the slenderness of the ankle by essentially having it squeeze through something. Another great example of this is seen on Mashiro-hime, another character not typically associated with sexual appeal, but oh man does she have hot legs in that pic. And it’s all due to the slender achilles area bringing out the supple shape of the calf area. Even
Nia-sweetie with all the attention on her eyes and hair, sports a pair of shoes complete with ankle strap. And don’t forget
Aoi-chan in the only time we’ve seen her wearing something other than that adorable kimono - never mind that she’s only got 4 toes (oh shi-?)
动画脚踝学把这个问题更深化一步 —— 适当的鞋子。请注意凪的鞋子上的缚带是多么正确地出现在了脚踝上，同时这又完全不是必须的。这个缚带扮演了一个极为重要的角色，它本质上通过使脚踝穿过一些东西来强调脚踝的苗条性。另外一个重要的例子是从真白身上发现的，这个角色并不具备代表性的杀必死点，但是我的天，难道这张图片里她就没有一双性感的美腿吗？这都要归功于由苗条的脚后跟区域所带出的柔软美型的小腿部分。甚至NIA（我的最爱），我的所有注意力也只能集中在他的眼睛，头发，具有动感的鞋子连同脚踝上的缚带。不要忘记还有小葵，这是我们仅有的看到她穿着除了那套可爱的和服以外的的什么 —— 关于她只有四个脚趾这件事就不必挂在心上了（哦！混[]）
One more piece of evidence comes from Geass, where Villetta is flashing her own breathtaking set. As amazing as they look, don’t they seem to pale in comparison to the other examples above? In comparison, Villetta’s legs look unnaturally straight, unrealistic, and while extremely long, rather unshapely.
反面的证据来自《反逆的鲁鲁修》，维蕾塔招摇卖弄地炫耀她自己那动人心魄的身姿。就像它们看起来那么令人惊异那样，与上面几个例子相比较，岂不是黯然失色？对比中我们看到，维蕾塔得腿看起来不合乎自然规律地直，极端地长却毫无真实性可言，更显得奇形怪状。
The Anklet Hypothesis can also apply to wrists, as so brilliantly demonstrated by Tsukasa in this pic. Doesn’t her arm look so much more slender with that bracelet?
踝襻假说同样适用于手腕，这张图片中的小司作了鲜明地示范。难道他的手臂就没有因为佩戴手环而看起来很苗条吗？
So there you have it, my attempt at turning an ankle fetish into a science. Sounds like some bastardized male version of Lucky Star…
到这里你应该明白了，我在努力把脚踝控转变为一门科学。恩，虽然听上去就像劣质的男性版幸运星……
