I know it's not realistic but many anime draws their characters with complete eyes but not fully colored because the bangs cover the eyes. It really is a disaster; I know what usual anime does, and that's preferred over the whole eye "eating" the bangs! For example, Kirari from Kirarin Revolution...I didn't realize that girl had bangs covering her eye because they drew the eye over the whole thing...

What's the point of making a girl have bangs if they're impossible to see? I accept anime girls' strange facial features, which are cute, but making the eyes overlap hair goes too far for me, as Mirai proves it looks strange in worst cases.

In the comparison picture, you can see Ichigo, a girl who normally has the same problem as Mirai with her eyes, but here is averting it, doing the usual anime "lines overlap" thing, compared to Mirai's consistent weird thing with her eyes.

I know I'm really off-topic but I think all artists should stick to the drawing outlines of eyes over hair, not drawing the whole thing over them, and therefore, hopefully ths shouldn't make a reappearance.
