Art is hard. Anatomy is harder: the human body is a complex machine of interlocking bones and musculature that the human brain has been trained to recognise anomalies in. As such, even an expert artist will make an error here and there. Luckily, a weird hand doesn't stop a character from looking great and being loved by many. That is, until a random forum pedant comes along and decides to point out every mistake for no good reason whatsoever. I hope you enjoy these anatomical curiosities.
But because art is hard, it is worth appreciating successes. Let's take a moment to acknowledge some awesome work:
Noticed any artistic errors yourself? Please show me, because I find them strangely interesting! Perhaps it's because they reveal the human factor behind these company's products. (And if you've ever tried to draw something, it's highly relatable — someone who has struggled with a 10 pixel sprite.)

Xin Hua's perfectly painted shoes deserve respect
Look at the folds on SeeU's skirt. Stunning.
Observe Mew's face. Lips? Perfection. Eyes? Mesmerising. This is what Mew fans think about every day. I refuse to resize this image.
