Fingerless Hands	comment	A character in an animated work has no apparent hands, but yet still manages to pick things up and manipulate things as if they did. Some do have thumbs, some don't have thumbs, and some have thumbs appear when grasping something or gesturing, but disappear otherwise. Can sometimes be a feature of a Super-Deformed design. Subtrope of Invisible Anatomy. Compare Magnet Hands and Four-Fingered Hands. See Bell-Bottom-Limbed Bots for the mechanical equivalent. If the character is an animal that actually doesn't have hands or fingers, but still manages to manipulate things as if they do, that's Feather Fingers.

Fingerless Hands / int_671d5c19	comment	The Powerpuff Girls (1998) is possibly the Trope Codifier and was previously the Trope Namer. Lampshaded in an episode in which the Powerpuff Girls end up switching bodies with Professor Utonium, Miss Bellum and the Mayor, leading to Buttercup having trouble using Professor Utonium's hands. She just kind of waves it around behind the phone, without moving the fingers at all, apparently expecting it to automatically stick to her hand as usual. Lampshaded again when they play rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets stuck with an unwanted chore. Somehow, they're able to determine who drew what... and Bubbles always loses. Yet again when the Girls are forced to travel by foot and they complain that their feet clearly aren't meant for walking. Buttercup doesn't mind so much, though, smugly noting she's "using muscles I didn't even know I had!" One MAD sketch lampshades this trope as well when they spoof it with 2 Broke Girls. When Mojo Jojo hosted Cartoon Cartoon Fridays, he would joke about how the girls were apparently beating him with "flippers". Another subtle lampshade happens in "Oops, I Did It Again", which shows a What If? scenario where Chemical X was never mixed into the brew that made the Powerpuff Girls. This would result in three average, powerless girls... with fingered hands.

Fingerless Hands / int_b7c37594	comment	Subverted in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid. Ilulu isn't very good at turning into human form, and her attempt at forming hands manifests as stubby balls on the end of her arms (though she gets better as the story progresses). However, she can still hold things with them because they're made up of thousands of smaller hands. Much Memetic Mutation ensued about this horrifying explanation for the trope.

Fingerless Hands / int_ba4b3c3e	comment	In Flower Fairy, the four fairy companions Kukuru, Luna, Lushu, and Lulu, in their chibi-like forms, all have little fingerless stubs where their hands would be... usually. There is at least one occasion where Kukuru spontaneously gains a proper hand with fingers for a few seconds.

The human Player Character is portrayed without fingers, but still manages to do anything a normal human can do. And more obviously, all of the animal villagers can also do every mundane activity without trouble. How can a bird villager write with their wings? How can a deer villager use a fishing rod with their hooves? How can a cat villager use a bug-catching net with their paws? Smug-type villagers in New Leaf will even mention being able to play the acoustic guitar, even though they're a mouse, or koala, or horse, or...

Lampshaded by the creator himself in his drawing live stream where he explains how Pony is able to hold stuff, like trying to position his hooves to face the back, where he can hold objects so you wouldn't see it to give the illusion that it's stuck to his hooves.

Fingerless Hands / int_c4282b71	comment	My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Horses can grab things with their hooves in a human-like manner, but this is usually averted due to the show's penchant for Furry Reminder. Most of the time, ponies use their mouths, wings, or magic to manipulate objects. Word of Saint Paul says any time this trope does happen is a writing issue that the storyboarders couldn't figure out a good solution to, such as one script requiring a character to use a pointer and speak at the same time. Fans that don't subscribe to the MST3K Mantra theorize that the in-universe reason is ponies being able to use a biological version of Granular Jamming. Cello and fiddle-playing ponies like Octavia Melody and Fiddly Faddle usually avert this by using the articulations between hoof, fetlock, and pastern to manipulate the strings and bow of their instruments. Lampshaded in one My Little Pony: Equestria Girls special. Sunset Shimmer, a unicorn who has lived as a human in a parallel dimension for several years, briefly returns to Equestria to retrieve a magic book. She tries to pick it up using her hooves, but all she can do is helplessly paw at it before another character reminds her that she has magic.

Fingerless Hands / int_e25322af	comment	Homestar Runner: Strong Bad has boxing gloves for hands, yet still displays excellent fine motor control, such as typing on a keyboard with ease. He's very tired of people asking how that works. He can also flip you the bird... somehow. Homestar can also allegedly flip the bird, despite his lack of visible hands (and arms), though it's unclear whether Homestar did make said gesture or not; it's possible that Strong Bad was no more able to tell what Homestar was doing than the viewers were, and merely guessed. The Cheat, Bubs, and Pom Pom lack distinguishable hands, but they can manipulate things just fine (and as with Strong Bad and Homestar, Pom Pom can flip the bird). Coach Z does have hands, but they're more like mittens, with a thumb and one big finger. Marzipan doesn't have any arms, but can still operate things just fine. In the email "fingers", Strong Bad stuck various objects onto his gloves as "fingers" in order to get people to stop asking how he types "with boxing gloves on", only to find that he was suddenly having much more difficulty typing than normal. In "Doomy Tales of the Macabre", his boxing gloves were replaced with human hands, and the experience left him bewildered and deeply disturbed — he had no idea how to type with them.
