It all began with a Google search. I was obsessed with Digimon girls feet ever since I first saw them in the likes of Mimi Tachikawa and Yolei Inoue. Then the heading for "Anime Feet" showed below their screenshots. The rest was history. Can't get enough of them when other anime shows and films with their female protagonists being barefoot.
Way back in 2008, when blogging was all the rave, I used to notice King and a few other bloggers plugging their sites in the "mega anime thread" on the now defunct Tickle Theater forum, rip. TMF still has another variant of that thread but most my time was spend on the former. King's site was barely even a year old then and mainly focused on trends that were insanely popular during that time, like Naruto Shippuden(of course), even live action stuff like actresses from those FOTM vampire dramas and X-Men movies. Despite being called "Anime Feet", my guess would be just to garner as much traction as possible to really get the site on the map early on, so you start out with the mega trends.
Some of the most popular posts I remembered much earlier on from this blog were the barefoot Megami pics of Shakugan no Shana's Shana, that hotel bed scene of May Wong from Kaleido Star, Azula from Avatar getting a pedicure or something, the infamous foot domination scene of Sena Aoi from ChäoS;HEAd and I'd be remiss not to mention the Medusa stepping on the frog super sensation from Soul Eater.
