Sorry for using some /v/ media in the image. I've been watching some Lupin III and playing some Wario and Pokemon when I noticed a few perfectly human characters, at least for the setting, have weird, pointy ears. This seems to only happen to uglier, crazier, or more bizarre characters as I've noticed, so don't confuse these with the Warcraft-ish, footlong ears of actual Elves, Demons, or other paranormal humanoids in anime.
Why do you think this is? Do pointy ears signify anything in Japanese culture? Just a quirk to emphasize their oddness?

They like Elves, which is probably a symtom of their Germanophilia.

But the ones in the OP are solely for 100% Human characters, albeit they're frequently more brutish or gothic. What most people like about Elves is usually their beauty first and foremost, followed by their lack of aging, and then pointy ears, right?

A lot of people in real life have told me I have pointy elf-like ears. It's just a thing some people have. It's not a big deal.
