Anime begs, please stop doing this. Legs are complex structures of bone and muscle that interact with the torso and with gravity. They're not a sloppy assemblage of potato parts to be arranged in a pigeon-toed fashion. What's strange is /ic/ has this concept of 'symbol drawing' as a bad thing, but it's only ever applied to faces for some reason, or low quality photos of shitty pencil drawings. It's almost as if you all can't recognize symbol drawing in plain sight if it's polished up enough. Superficial form.

I like sketchy linework and minor imperfections, they feel more personally made compared to one of the same 5 rendering styles everyone picks. Sketchy also feels nostalgic for me because it reminds me of looking at art / concept books for Japanese vidya.

You're not getting it. This isn't about what's "possible." People can be pigeon-toed, that's possible. That just isn't how fucking legs work. The drawing is totally flat. In a phrase, symbol-drawn. This is an art critique board and I'm offering art critique. If your retort is "coomers like it" then alright, let the masses decide everything for you including when and where you eat and shit.
Picrel is the first not bad pigeon-toed anime art I came across. Emulate this if you want to 'inspire coomers.'

It's a shitty shit drawing with badly drawn legs buddy. People do care about that. Maybe not tasteless coomers itching for their hourly social media fix, but people do care, and it does affect your opportunities as well as you how you and your art are perceived. Most of all it should matter to you but that's more of an opinion. If you have so little regard for your art, then we're on different wavelengths and there's nothing more to discuss.

Booba makes the world go round.
All those highschool art teachers who told you to stop drawing anime, and all those college professors who told you not to sexualize women were wrong.
They don't understand the appeal of anime and while they understand the appeal of booba, they deny it.
Meanwhile MHA is outselling every western comic on the charts in the US. It's like actually writing a story that follows the myth of the hero instead constantly deconstructing it, and not denying basic male urges and sexuality is a path to success.
