  • Downplayed:
    • Grace C or below, where while the skirt is short, the socks/boots are below the knee.
  • Justified: Kimiko is...

    • dressing like this FOR a sock/boot fetishist

    • a cosplayer
    • Or Kimiko, you know, just likes the look.

  • Averted:
    • Kimiko wears completely different clothing
    • Her skirt goes far past her knees, stockings are short.
  • Enforced: The director is a Boot/sock fetishist.
  • Lampshaded: "Every time I put on these thigh-high socks and this really short skirt, a lot of guys hit on me. I wonder why?"
  • Invoked: "I think I'm gonna wear this miniskirt and these thigh-high socks and see how many guys I attract."
  • Defied: The guys all deny or refuse to be attracted by Kimiko.
  • Discussed: "Wow, that girl is so hot when she puts on that skirt and those socks!"
