According to a recent report by Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan (厚生労働省).In the study, people who have a higher level of physical activity and exercise have a lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, depression and dementia compared to those who are less active. The study highlights that adopting exercise habits is essential for a long and healthy life. One of the most striking findings of the report is that, except in cases of extreme obesity, having thicker thighs is associated with a lower mortality rate (i.e., longer life expectancy)..

The report explains that walking uses the calf muscles, which improves blood flow. Improved blood flow ensures that oxygen reaches every corner of the body through the capillaries. Even a brisk walk can be considered sufficient exercise for these benefits. Shocking data from 2009 revealed that the thicker the thigh, the lower the mortality rate. For example, people with a thigh circumference of 65 centimeters have a death rate about half that of people with a thigh circumference of 55 centimeters.
Having wide thighs indicates physical activity, such as walking or running.which has a direct impact on longevity. This finding highlights the importance of developing exercise habits for a longer, healthier life.
This big thigh trend isn't just limited to the health sphere. The anime sector also reflected this preference. in their character designs. Characters like Rikka Takarada from “SSSS.GRIDMAN”., Reisalin Stout from “Atelier Ryza”. and Rin Tohsaka from the “Fate Series”. are iconic examples of anime characters with prominent thighs that caught the public's attention.

The taste for big thighs has joined other well-established tastes, such as big breasts and big butts, to establish itself as a prized characteristic of anime characters. This phenomenon indicates that Big thighs are not only an indication of health and longevity, but also an aesthetic trait that is increasingly valued in popular culture..
In short, both in real life and in fiction, big thighs have proven to be an important feature. From a health perspective, they indicate higher levels of physical activity and a lower mortality rate. In anime culture, they have become an attractive and valued resource for fans, reflecting a trend that cannot be ignored.
