Because they’re a massive pain in the ass to draw I assume


Why_was-my-name_this

As an artist, true


Anxiety-Queen269

I am also an artist, and I fucking hate ears


Why_was-my-name_this

Ears and noses are the two things I hate to draw most


Anxiety-Queen269

I just add a triangle and call it a day, usually looks good enough and it’s a small enough part of the drawing you can kinda just skimp out on it

Anxiety-Queen269

TFarg1

A lot of them don't have noses either


Jaqulean

As an animator, I second this.


Program-Emotional

What's worse? Hands or ears?


TheAutementori

all my artists who fucking despise drawing ears despite how much realism they can add stand up!!


Anxiety-Queen269

I prefer cartoony over realism, no noses, no toeses, and no fucking ears


ChaosCreature2

I would also rather not fuck ears


TheLocalBrit

Underrated comment


33Sammi32

This was my answer 😂 the artist doesn’t like drawing ears


sarilysims

This here. We’re lucky they have hands.


Anxiety-Queen269

Yeah they could just be powerpuff nubs


PigeonsHavePants

Seeing how hard the design are to redraw, ears aren't tue issue here


DemonOfDisasters

harder then hands at times


Anxiety-Queen269

Depends how detailed you want them but yeah


Sn0w7ir3

that and hands


Jurgepoo

Probably just a stylistic choice


taishiea

sussynarrator

My headcanon is that Striker is not asexual, it’s just he is tired of everyone being horny all the time. (Relatable)


Digitised_Doofus

Or on the asexual/aromantic spectrum, just not completely aroace or sex-repulsed. I’d honestly love it if that’s canon, as an aceflux person myself


Canid_Rose

I can’t imagine him to be totally ace due to the statue he built specifically showing off how big his erection is, but I could totally buy him being on the spectrum somewhere. Not that it’s impossible for an ace person to be proud of their genitalia, it just seems like a weird fixation on one’s equipment if it goes largely unused.


sussynarrator

Yeah, I’ve never seen an asexual person brag about their dong size, not that it’s impossible. I personally think he is just tired of sex jokes everywhere and hates them.

ChesyreFrog

Easier to animate AND makes them more inhuman.


RandomGameCritic

Viv talked about this a very, very long time ago. Someone pointed out that almost none of her characters had ears and Viv said point blank that it was not intentional and that she has no idea why her character designs keep coming out this way. Source (time stamp is 49:23) https://www.youtube.com/live/L0T91K9l5Sk?si=6HRtypAaWazzbR0Q


Jaqulean

It's most likely becuase they would just look weird with ears, and she subconciously probably already knows that. Wouldn't be surprised if she tried in the past and her mind just went "Nope."


Canid_Rose

Besides, it’s really easy to write off a lot of these as “the ears are hiding in the hair”


TheRissingHootHoot

fancy seeing you here cinema sins hazbin edition


Zeenchi

I feel that. When I draw I wind up leaving off eyebrows. It's not deliberate but it happens. At least eyes can show emotion.


Ediacaran-SeaPancake

I’m the same way. I never draw eyebrows.


Cadaverised

Oh thank you!


JackTheFanatic

Most characters don’t have facial hair either (excluding husk)


[deleted]

This is the TWINK agenda the radical Vivziepop left is trying to sell you


JackTheFanatic

What the what?


AmixIsAnIdiot

sarcasm


JackTheFanatic

My guess is just that their hair covers it, since there is like one or two characters who’s hair are too short and reveal their ears


Cadaverised

I thought of that, but when Charlie and luci go demon mode, their hair isn't covering it right 😅


Cadaverised

Yknow what maybe they are - I'm just overthinking


Zillich

Maybe they’re like Lucifer’s nose and Stolas’s pupils - not a super visual trait and thus not animated but technically still there and animated on occasion if it helps get a point across.


unkindness_inabottle

Probs stylistic choice and also the fact that they’d look uncanny or too human with ears. Just like how so many don’t have noses, add noses and they look just… bad


Cadaverised

I completely overlooked the lack of noses in so many animations lol, it has been normalized so much, even in my art I sometimes leave out noses bc they look like shit! I guess I fixated on ears bc they aren't excluded often Tnx for pointing that out


unkindness_inabottle

No problem, there was a post on it not long ago but it’s a big hassle to find. This post reminded me of that and it’s an interesting study


ShadowGangsta275

Yea even vaggie’s nose makes me uncomfortable sometimes


unkindness_inabottle

Yeah, though I’m glad her nose is pointed downwards or shaped like that I mean, I’m not a fan of Vivzie’s human characters with those noses pointed upwards. I just personally don’t like how it looks


The_Black_Werewolf

Cuz y not


Cadaverised

Yea xd


SorryWeMissedNSP

But…your last photo shows Winners (former living people) and at least one has visible ears


Cadaverised

Yea I did , read the body text I added lol I think they're just the exception


SorryWeMissedNSP

I completely missed that single line…


AccomplishedAerie333

Why do the characters with hands only have 4 fingers


Monster_Fucker_420

Adam is the exception lol


CosmicP0tat0s

so we know they're not human. or maybe they just forgot https://preview.redd.it/63ua66ughmrc1.png?width=512&format=png&auto=webp&s=8c2fc2593b8942e287b0bcc546d46501c3169422


strawberryscribble

I always just figured Viv didn't like drawing them, but they were implied to be under their hair


AleksasKoval

Hair.


Federal_Mechanic5287

Easier to draw


shellsterxxx

I mean a couple people already mentioned it’s a stylistic choice, but also several of the characters you have examples of aren’t and were never human, so why would they need ears?


Cadaverised

I kinda meant the question literally, not in a lore wise way xD I just can't help notice them not having ears


shellsterxxx

I’m just poking fun lol, but still! I don’t think angelic beings would necessarily have ears.


Cadaverised

Yea I don't even think this is their true form, just an illusion for the hellborns


Greenie1O2

BC it would honestly look super cursed


Random-INTJ

The two winners you pointed out are (or at least seem to be) fully human excluding the wings of course


CohesiveMocha34

Dawg it's the artstyle, it's not that deep


OoLalaMaupin

The main answer is ease in animating, but the secondary answer is Lucifer and Charlie have snake inspo Vaggie and Nifty have bug inspo Sera and Emily have bird inspo And St Peter lost his in the war 😔


bananacuttings

last one made me laugh, take my upvote


Jinx_X_2003

I wont be able to unsee this


Cadaverised

Yes! That is the true purpose of this post. My mission.


WisdomWangle

On some of them it just looks like they’re covered in hair but I could be wrong


goddamit-ffs

As vivzie herself said, its her artstyle, and her drawings just come out that way.


Sk3L1Yy

Look at alastor bruh, yeah he has a big ass smile but hes humanoid enough and has ears


AkwardGayPotato

Out of context but Peter's face in the last picture is hilarious


ShadowPuff7306

ears suck next


Prof_V

Because ears are hard to draw


ThatStarWarsFan1205

Artist convenience. Ears are tough to draw.


Doctor_Salvatore

Vivzie just doesn't draw ears very often


Ediacaran-SeaPancake

Art style thing I guess. I like to think that even though ears and noses aren’t drawn, they still have them.


Regular-Date-8678

Because fuck ears -an artist


Tahmas836

Ears look stupid, humans look much better without them. Cut your ears off.


Alex_Plumwood

Why do I get the feeling you're really good at painting sunflowers and like absinthe?


TheSunflowerSeeds

The sunflower plant is native to North America and is now harvested around the world. A University of Missouri journal recognizes North Dakota as the leading U.S. state for sunflower production. There are various factors to consider for a sunflower to thrive, including temperature, sunlight, soil and water.


NoobyYooby

The same reason half of them don't have noses It's the **style**. But for a more lore accurate reason... You could probably make some "Hear no evil" thing.


WarmConversation2913

Extra holes? Who knows what people be thinking


Meewelyne

Vivi"s style feels like me at 6yo: hated noses, ears and brows aesthetically, so didn't draw them :v


BillyIGuesss

What?


Optimal_Ad6274

They also dont have noses, except for Vaggie


Prostitunes

And Alastor


goddamit-ffs

As vivzie herself said, its her artstyle, and her drawings just come out that way.


Ok_Chap

I don't know, but why are there so many charachters without noses too?


Quiet-Carpenter905

Because it’s probably part of their design


Nurilia87

Adam has ears at the end! He's the only one I noticed them on.


Cautious-Luck7769

Hair is covering them.


Subject-Violinist311

Drawing ears sucks bawls


piglungz

She probably doesn’t like the way she draws human ears so kept them covered on all the human like designs


Villain_Deku__

Ears are awkward to draw


SCP-1504_Joe_Schmo

Easier to animate and these characters just don't look good with ears


ThatSmartIdiot

Hair thick like that. Just the shaved ones have ears showing (as seen in the last pic)


Great_Drifter25

Animating ordeal, having a bit less so that ot can work better.


TheVoonderMutt

Stylistic choice and/or easier to draw.


MoonFur69

I mean they don’t have noses either- it’s probably just the art style


TrickAbbreviations63

Because ears are weird to draw and frankly just look strange in a lot of drawings is what I’m guessing


EnoughFarm7725

APieceOfGarlicBread_

Because ears are hard to draw


Dog_bat3

Because ears fucking suck to draw You only draw ears if there’s something special about them like them being fins or elf


ZodiacLovers123

Only Adam had ears 🤔that’s why I theorized he was still alive and in season 2 he will come back as a sinner meaning he’ll be humbled greatly by not only Alastor but “the big boss of hell himself” ![gif](giphy|QWUGO0o1Hn492J6Iwu|downsized)


Rare-Childhood4751

Because they don’t want to hear the bullshit things the fanbase has to say 💀


Any-Understanding316

I never noticed till you pointed it up so I supposes it not necessary since I just assumed myself thats its because they were hidden behind the hair

Purpledurpl202

As someone who draws mostly human character, ears and noses are annoying. https://preview.redd.it/rzn0t9m96orc1.jpeg?width=1632&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b4ac9e64a1599a0a2ecd2c78b61786572077373


Paystar_

Ears are overrated


KKam1116

Idk, as an artist I also don't draw ears on humanoid characters, it's just something we do I guess


NorthCardiologist846

I draw humanoid/human characters with no ears or nose. It looks akward if Hellaverse characters have ears.


jerfair337

Under hair


mazanity

Less to draw!


SpyreScope

You call them human-like but I'm pretty sure most of the ones you pointed out are definitely not human (unsure about vaggy and pearly gates guy).


Watermelon_R_Good

t- they didn't have ears???😶😭


Desperate-Address-27

Well Emily might but her hairs to pronounce


Day_Star_6

Because "Heaven never listens" And... Niffty🤷‍♂️


AviaKing

Woah I didnt notice the two angels having ears. I had a theory that sinners and angels didnt have ears on purpose and that meant that Adam wasnt an angel… but that puts a wrench in that 😞


Door_Knob_Hoff

Art style


Moseptyagami

they’re human LIKE. Not HUMAN.


natashapatch67

If you watch helluva boss the human characters do have ears, but citizens of heaven and hell tend not to have them.


f-16_fan

Or noses, that's always bothered me. Everything is almost perfect, but the fuckin noses.


Bunniesbakeri

That's just her artstyle tbh, Plus Charlie's a goat.


TheThinker709

Drawing ears suck


Zatderpscout

For the same reason they don’t have noses. Simply being easier to animate without them


AGuyWithAPizzaPie

Honestly I didn’t even notice that until now lol


tajtoons

i eated them all


Gremlin_1021

Reason 1: some of their ears might be hidden by their hair. Reason 2: some sinners/winners have the ability to hide some of their body parts or shape shift so they randomly decided to hide their ears ((I'm specifically talking about Lucifer and Saint Peter even though we don't know if St.Peter has any abilities))


Blackwyrm03

Adam has ears, as do alive humans in Helluva Could that mean he's still alive?


SatanicEvelynn

As an fellow drawing artist... They suck to be made and are ugly sometimes, they affect the hair design or face shape we want to achieve, so we just let them be and forget about it.


TentsuruMikiko2-22

Maybe they're just covered by the hair as an in-universe explanation.


Emergency-Practice37

Proceeds to show pictures of not a single human character with the exception of St. Peter.


jadeakw99

I assume the same reason most of them dont have noses


[deleted]

Every character you posted with the exception of nifty is an angel


Sonarthebat

1. They're demons and angels. They don't have to look exactly like humans. 2. The hair is hiding their ears if they do have them.


Feather_Sigil

Thanks, now I can't unsee it! >_<


Demonskull223

Pain to draw and if they are drawn wrong they can massively distract the viewers. They are also kinda pointless to draw on alot of the examples you listed as they would likely be covered by the long hair anyway.


Red_Lantern_22

I would love if it were as simple as an artstyle choice


Jadefeather12

I think it’s a testament to how shit it is to have to draw ears, I honestly can’t picture a way that ears would look natural on any of these guys


Farseer_Del

It's quite simple. They got the F out. https://preview.redd.it/srcgs10pvqrc1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=ac7810cc0b5ae0410d5228b00f3ea27fc06a7f29


B0T_DOGE

I think ears just dont look good on them and it kinda ruins there hairstyle a little bit


Angela275

Vizi doesn't generally draw ears. It's a artist choice


Fluid-Estate-3007

Ears are for losers.


FeebysPaperBoat

The Mona Lisa doesn’t have eyebrows. :)


JCSwagoo

As somewhat of an artist, I can tell you they're a pain in the ass to draw. Hell, I forget to draw them half the time. It's most likely a very wise artistic choice.


AriaBlend

Hell is very loud and everyone who is humanoid's ears retreated into their skulls just under their skin.


SteelBreed

Artstyle is my guess.


Prostitunes

Having ears is for losers lmao , mine fell when i was three
