I'm looking for something where the protagonist has some serious (external) scars, that he/she hides and play a (great) part in why they are the way they are.

The best example I can give is Kaoru from Ai yori Aoshi. He has some serious scars on his back that play a part in the story.
Edit: His scars don't play that much of a role though, I'm looking for something which has a bigger impact on the sotry

It's not much to go on, just wondering if there is something out there.

I see you've watched Kenshin but the prequel isn't on your list, which explains his backstory and how he got the scar on his face in the original series.

Sorry, my bad. I did see it, apparently just forgot to put it on my list, since I saw those 6 ova's in 1 go, didn't think of them as 2 separate titles.

Not a main character but a very important supporting character.

Thanks, another reason why I need pick up black lagoon again. Looks like I've put this one on hold far too long.

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say here.

The scars play a great part in why the protagonist is the way she/he is?

I thought this was a pretty good anime, and seems to fit what you're looking for.

Yes, you just used he/she and I used they.

JUST AS PLANNED!
Yeah, as I thought. I think Trigun fits.
The MC from Golgo 13 also has scars but I don't think it completely fits your request, since they don't seem to be what made him the way he is.

I think of Scar from FMA, but you've seen it.

How about Hidaka Sana from Myself ; Yourself?
Although you don't actually get to see the scars they do have a role near the end of the show. I can't say anymore because it would give too much away.

Indeed, Vash has some serious scarring going on that are an important part of who he is.

Plus Trigun is just a damn good series.

Sentarou from Sakamichi no Apollon. I'm not sure where the anime is right now... but the manga has given some insight into his character.
It's a great story, too.

Try Berserk. Guts eventually gets a certain brand on him that's closely related to his present situation.

You can give Mirai Nikki a try. Yuno is scarred and thus acts the way she is.
