The world of animation has had a tenuous relationship with fingers and hands since the early days of Mickey Mouse. The weird thing with the Powerpuff girls was that while they didn't have hands, other characters in the show did. Tumblr likes to get down and dirty with media, like explaining why the guy from Lilo and Stitch is the best Disney prince, or hyper analyzing Davey Jones from Pirates of The Caribbean.

    Cartoon - a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e It's always kind of funny when the Powerpuff Girls, in fanart, are drawn with fingers and noses and toes and stuff and it's like...they legit don't have those in canon. It's not just a style choice, they actually don't have fingers and noses. I mean, apparently Buttercup just sticks her hand to things to pick them up (S03E29 Criss Cross Crisis) CORDOO

    Cartoon - And in Oops, I Did it Again (S06E04B) the girls, when made without Chemical X, come out "normal" and do have fingers, feet, noses, and normal faces. So like..when everyone in the show calls them "bug-eyed freaks," "pumpkin heads," etc, they legit mean the girls have big round heads, giant eyeballs, and stump limbs. I think it's safe to say that the Powerpuff Girls are objectively horrifying. I want to see fanart of that.

    Nose - iguanamouth alright i realise im a little late to the party here but going back to how the girls are able to grip things despite not having fingers

    Cartoon - at first i thought maybe they could have tiny hooks at the end of the stumps that would snag onto surfaces, similar to cats tongues ( and yeah alright spiderman ) but the issue is that they probably wouldnt be effective for smoother surfaces they could also have wrinkled pads like geckos feet that could cling to smoother things no problem, but then the problem is maintaining enough suction to actually lift and carry an object
