The only thing that bothers me

That bugs me too when it seems pointless. I can only say I guess it maybe makes sense in this that they can hide their animal part so they would need the other ears. I tell myself evolution hasn’t fully kicked in yet or the animal years make it easier to hear further and clearer than their human ones.

One thing as a personal opinion from someone who draws too:

It might be because it’ll look weirder if the human ears are missing (at least in my eyes). Without the human ears normally there it looks odd for there to be a blank space and whenever I try to fill the space with hair I overdo it and it’ll look like some alien.

I prefer this than another style that I saw, which was the artist/author drew the character’s animal ears where their human ears would be- instead of on top of their head. It bothered me more than this because every character looked like a monkey lmao

hank green is that you??? XD love the term evolution

Loool I’m ashamed to say he wasn’t my first thought when using that term but he should have been
