    This is Ginko, a wild girl who does everything by herself, including disinfecting wounds sustained in duels with shochu, first aid, and collecting and mixing medicinal herbs.

    How does a nose scar go across the face and nose bridge without cutting through the nose itself? And why is it such a common design?

    Because anime aesthetics means physics and anatomy can eat shit.
    Same reason why characters can have a vertical scar across their eye and cheek without losing vision in that eye or how you can get cool cross-shaped scars by somehow getting hit on the same spot but with different angles despite the angle of attack makes absolutely no sense trajectory-wise.

    No, an eye scar can possibly miss the eye so thats actually plausible. Also I think a clean enough cut in a modern setting can possibly be fixed.

    The eyelid thickness averages on around 2 milimeters. The average depth of the 'dip' between the apex of your closed eyelid and your brows are 0.3-0.5 centimeters.

    If the scar goes across the brow and whole eye, lid and all it's IMPOSSIBLE to miss the eyeball, given the presence of said dip. Yet characters like Zaraki Kenpachi still has their eye intact.

    Venom snake has that and many others. And its still possible when all micro-movements are possible variables i.e. dodging, shaky hand, etc.

    Did you seriously just cite a fictional character as evidence that something can happen in real life?

    When has metal gear ever not been realistic? It's obviously a possibility whereas the other one isn't, and I've never seen it look good on any character besides ginko.
