It's a bug across all versions of the game. If your mystic arte displays that it's doing 5m damage, It means it's actually doing 10m damage (2x5), so exactly double of the damage that it showed you it was doing.

But if you try mowing down the enemy through normal attacks instead of using a mystic artes, the total damage you're going to have to do in order to take them down is 10m, not 5m, which is the total HP they have. You'll get similar results if you try using an active skill like School Stahn's (Reduces the enemy's current HP by 30%).
