I agree too that Bedrock is better on the issue Mega_Spud is pointing out. However, I don't think that's what the OP is talking about. It looks like he's complaining about the fact that the character moves its hand each time it throws something. But that is nonsensical.

My guess is that he is actually complaining that the throwing animation does not end with an empty hand, so it looks like you are throwing and yet still holding the item.

But maybe we should close this report as being incomprehensible?

I agree with Jeffrey.

I think this is better off staying in the game. When throwing something, you move your hand forward not downward. It makes more sense that the player's hand would move forward when throwing something.

I'm not quite sure if this is what the OP meant, but there is a slight difference in the throwing animation between MCPE and the Java version.

Here's a video showing a side-by-side comparison of the two:
https://youtu.be/HHi-OU4hqnU

You can see that the MCPE animation is the same as the attack animation, whereas in PC, it is the same as the Feeding animation.

Also, there is a difference in the throwing animation between gamemodes, as the items get used up in /gamemode 0.

How can you see the hand begins to move every time we drop or throw something

Could you please attach a screen shot of your issue and tell us what you expected to happen?
