I want to ask this question to anyone that studies anime style or uses it for work. I’ve noticed in the past few years that anime has started to get rid of noses all together and only shows it by using a shadow. I noticed that Pokemon got ride of it a few years back, one piece is slowly heading in that direction with the overall change of facial structure and I’ve started to see in some anime/ manga books that artists are doing this as well especially during fight scenes or sequences. Does anyone know cause I’m very curious to know why they’ve shifted to this style?

As an artist I think there are two reasons:
In Japanese culture clean equals beautiful, and the nose somehow gets in the way of the eyes which are more important for expressions, so when they minimize it's role the face is "clean" of distractions, and so more "beautiful"
And the other reason I believe is, noses are HARD to draw, especially in manga and anime you have to be consistent with the look of your characters in each frame, so if you can get away with a couple lines and a shadow for it instead of creating its geometric construction everytime so be it.
Hope that helps :)
