Regardless of the way he got it, I'm glad Zoro finally got a brutal wound for the first time in years. I feel like he pulled a 180 after the timeskip; from being constantly in a near-death state because of battles, to just stomping everyone who isn't Issho. It made his fights rather boring and tedious outside of their endings.
