'''Interruptibility''' is the ability to begin a new action even though the current action's animation has not yet finished. For example, while {{SSBB|Mario}}'s [[forward smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' takes 56 [[frame]]s to complete execution, the player can interrupt the ending frames and do something else as early as frame 48. For most intents and purposes, this results in the last part of the animation simply being filler, as the player is likely to attack, jump, or simply move as soon as possible. Many attacks have a minor amount of interruptible frames during their [[ending lag]], while in general [[special move]]s and get-up animations do not; some attacks such as [[Marth]]'s or [[Ness]]'s [[down tilt]]s have a significant interruptibility window which allows them to follow up the attack much faster than the animation would suggest.

It is possible for actions to be interruptible with only certain kinds of actions, such as the case with [[jump cancel]]ling.
It is possible for actions to be interruptible with only certain kinds of actions, such as the case with [[jump cancel]]ling.


In ''SSB'' and ''Melee'', interrupting a delayed [[double jump]] results in [[double jump cancel]]ling. Brawl disables this by only interrupting the animation of the double jump, not the execution.
In ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', interrupting a delayed [[double jump]] results in [[double jump cancel]]ling. Brawl disables this by only interrupting the animation of the double jump, not the execution.
