從2010年小黃人們第一次在《神偷奶爸》中出現，到自己的大電影《小黃人大眼萌》席卷全球十億多美元，這五年時間內，這些穿著牛仔連體褲、矮胖沒身段的香蕉愛好者們成了不折不扣的網紅“小黃”。

　　In just five years, these dumpy banana lovers in jumpsuit, first seen in the Despicable Me of 2010, and then the self-titled Minions sweeping the world with astonishing box office over one billion dollars, have become admitted superstars across the globe.

　　為什麼大家那麼愛小黃人?

　　Why such insane popularity?

　　萌，這是極易討人喜歡的一個特質。小黃人，就是萌物的典型代表。

　“Moe”, an exceedingly desirable quality, may explain everything.

　　他們有大大的眼睛，圓圓的肚皮，扭起屁股來不輸給蠟筆小新;小黃人看什麼都稀奇，很容易就滿足，對女生特別溫柔，晚上哄孩子睡覺，對主人忠心耿耿，任勞任怨排除萬難;最重要的是，他們還會上街賣香蕉賺錢，回家做家務打掃衛生，就連生氣時還有很卡哇伊的紫色爆炸頭。

　　Big-eyes minions, with their round tummies, shake their butts just as funny as Crayon Shin-chan does. They are curious about everything, easily satisfied, and so nice to girls. Plus, they tuck kids to beds, and are as faithful as the dog to overcome any difficulty. And the most important one, they make money by selling bananas on the street, and keep the home clean. Even when they get angry, they still have those cute purple afros.

　　小黃人傻得純真，於是乎全世界的小黃人粉們便自覺地傳播著這份純蠢的愛。

　　We love minions for their stupid acts, but more for their innocence and sincerity.
