If that is the question that is merely whipping jabs from your hip instead of at a set position.

Anime over-exaggerates

Keeping your front hand down is a flaw, prior to popular belief you dont need to protect your hip.

Also the shoulder shrug should/could be avoided at most times by haveing your front hand up in the set position.
Depends

When you have your hands low, your opponents dont know what to expect. This was a vital key in Chris Eubanks victory over Nigel Benn in 1990, an orthodox straight mill boxer would of been blasted out in 1 or 2 rounds like so many of Benns previous opponents, but Chris Eubank was able to go against the grain and beat him down like he was after his world title, which he was.
