Though the 2003 anime shows him as a young armed combatant during the war, in the manga he displays his abilities on the field by subduing a number of armed Amestrian soldiers using only melee tactics. Additionally, he is very protective of his surviving kinsmen and takes all their words of encouragement or chastisement to heart.Īs a former warrior-monk of Ishval, Scar is extremely adept at hand-to-hand combat, boasting significant strength and stamina, remarkable agility and reflexes and deceptive speed he can be seen dodging bullets. Having had his people and his family stolen from him, Scar sympathizes with those who care for their loved ones and looks after those who have lost their place in the world. He is reasonably wise and a skilled rhetorician, though his misguided thirst for vengeance clouds his greater judgment and leads his arguments in circles. Even in the middle of his bloody vengeance, Scar is willing to show compassion toward others, honoring last requests and offering a chance to pray before dying. However, vestiges of his former life's kinder nature are prone to seep through. Unfortunately, this escalates into a monomaniac hatred of State Alchemists, to the point he even targets Edward Elric who was never part of the war and is a champion of the people. Knowing full well that his actions go against many of the teachings of his religion, he still fashions himself an agent of God's divine punishment and takes out his fury on State Alchemists as a result, he abandons his birth name which Ishvalans consider gifts from God. Scar is a decidedly brooding, vicious, and angry man, almost totally consumed by hatred towards the people who destroyed his homeland. Additionally, he sports a pair of black slacks with a white cross on the left leg and a white stripe running down the right. In the early part of either series, Scar wears sunglasses to hide his red eyes from view and bears a distinctive gold-colored jacket emblazoned with a cross on the back and sleeves. The manga storyline portrays Scar as being in his early- to mid-thirties while the 2003 anime depicts him as being roughly ten years younger. The upper portion of his face is disfigured with a large X-shaped scar which stretches across his forehead and down over his eyes into his upper cheekbones. Scar's right arm is adorned with a thin scar stretching entirely around the limb where the bicep meets the shoulder and, from that mark all the way down to the wrist, is nearly covered with a complex tattoo. In the manga and 2009 anime storyline, this crown sticks up a bit, while the 2003 anime series depicts it as relatively flat and spread out. He is fairly tall with a muscular build and his hair is shaved close on the back and sides, leaving a silver-colored crown on top. “As a master of Three Sword Style, a swordsmanship style which he created during his childhood training in Shimotsuki Village, Zoro is among the three most powerful combatants of the Straw Hats, alongside Luffy and Sanji.
