Willpower&Limiter page of One Punch Man should include Regeneration(Low-Mid) along side Immense Pain Tolerance & Limited Immortality.

Garou was overcoming death via willpower. Gyoro Gyoro already explained it. It's easy to turn humans to monsters via cells but it doesnt effect the limiter. It works with no further growth. Garou didnt take it.

For the limit of growth, Gyoro explains that first you need to overcome death many times as a HUMAN. Garou was still a human who was overcoming death. everytime garou overcome death he regenerated. immortality type 2 also comes with regeneration here. many examples are in the series.

He healed after being hacked and slashed, rose to his feet after having his torso crushed. regenerated a hole in his abdomen over an unknown period of time. seemingly recovered from having his ribcage shattered.

Gyoro explains it as well. At the very least, Limited immortality (type 2) should also include Regeneration(Low-Mid). Overcoming death also causes regeneration here.

Same for the Phoenix Man who had completely regenerated from being crushed and slashed multiple times after overcoming Death. It also doesn't make sense for the person to overcome death if the injury they have still stays since it would cause death afterwards.

It also explains how Saitama was fine after his training that were hurting him physically, or how he stopped bleeding after breaking a wall of his limiter. Or how his injuries from multiple part of his body disappeared without any scar even though it wasn't the same for King who's injury wasn't nearly as bad as Saitama. (Saitama didn't go to hospital either, if anything, he went to grocery shop for the sale :d)

Overcoming Death/Breaking a wall of Limiter causes regeneration.

While Garou has his own regeneration as well, we know it wasn't the case until he was defeated by Orochi that he evolved and gained regeneration via absorbing black matter. So his healing feat from being hacked and slashed to death and "rose to his feet after having his torso crushed" still applies.

Supernatural Willpower? Or, supernatural ability?
 
Yeah I have to say, it doesn't really help us that our only example here is a half monster. If we were shown that Saitama had some kind of regen back on his training days I would agree but to me this seems like just a thing Garou can do thanks to his partial monsterization.

Afaik the only example we have is that Saitama regenerated his teeth after Light Pull Cord knocked one out.

The rest is like, all Garou.
 
Uh-huh. Wasn't the point.
That looks like a uniquely Monster Garou ability.
oh. its not. those moments are him surviving against death and near death conditions via willpower. which is the cause of regeneration.

it also happened to phoenix man. he survived against death. had an explosive growth. also regenerated.

also explains saitama being able to move after his training.

(gyoro tried it on others. there were people who was doing it well at first. its not like they went near death then waited until they can heal which would normally take days or weeks. just logic. cant prove this one :d)

at the very least. immortality type 2 comes with regeneration here.
 
I guess he also regenerated from the slashes of Octopus Claw Man I dunno...

Going by King's scar he definitely should have a similar one on his cheek
saitama is a prime example. his body doesnt have any kind of scar or anything. no way in hell he's paying for hospital bills. also i guess its been told that he did his training nonstop everyday.

Honestly can't we give Saitama Low regen for this or something?
 
examples are garou. phoenix man. saitama.

also probably part of people gyoro used to break the limiter? there were people who was good at first. its hard to believe all of them are then just waiting until they are healed or so.
also garou was also surprised that he was already healed when he survived against slashes. its explanation was willpower. the reason for regeneration should be the same.
 
Rapid healing (High-Low) is a precedent set by the users of Indomitable Will, like Bad recovering from the damage he accrued from battling Elder Centipede and Garou in a matter of days, or Saitama overcoming his inhuman training without long-lasting wounds, or human Garou bouncing back from his hero hunt, but,

Phoenix Man's regeneration is a unique supernatural ability derived from the origin of his Monsterization—the Donkan Bird costume, and,

Garou's regeneration is a unique supernatural ability, fully realized upon the completion of his Monsterization.

this is true. it shouldnt be low-mid. but mid low or high low for willpower page.
 
Garou heals by absorbing dark matter or some shit like that
"Murata: Garou evolves in this fight. The puncture wound will absorb black matter from air, spiral inward and close itself. He will evolve again when he fights Golden Sperm."

he's talking about the wound he got when he was fighting orochi i suppose.

Regeneration seems understandable but low-mid seems a bit too high. Most of the feats come from Garou alone and barely get to high-low while the only potential lowmid feats seem more unique to individual abilities rather than a general willpower stuff.

I was also thinking about if it'd be High-Low or Low-Mid.

Low-Mid seems fine since the injuries are severe enough to cause death. Also regenerating broken bones, muscles, being cut from multiple parts of the body, seemingly severe internal damage etc.

Sure, most feat come from Garou but it's normal since he's the limit breaker we have seen with our eyes. It is also consistent with Gyoro Gyoro's statements, how he found the method and made monsters overcome death. Overloading the body and mind to the extreme limit etc.

That's just high-low
The ability to regenerate severed fingers, toes, or ears, minor organ damage, and even potentially reattach lost limbs. For machines and vehicles, this would be regenerating some interior damage, along with some minor critically damaged or destroyed parts
Low-mid includes getting sliced in half, brain damage, and regenerating entire lost limbs. And we don't see Ian regenerating his lost arm back just because he has strong willpower. Broken bones, stab wounds or internal damage are nowhere near enough for this rating.

I'm not saying that makes the feats useless, just that there's clearly different levels of willpower and just because a person with Garous willpower level can regen wounds doesn't mean anyone can. It's like, Garou's whole shitck and what makes him unique

Oh i see.

That's why it only applies for those who has shown enough to overcome death and break a wall of their limiter, literally evolving. Doesn't apply to everyone with willpower.
 
Immortality Type 3 is the regen one.

High pain tolerance is almost definitely a shared trait.

I'm not sure we have evidence of them all having regen, though.

agree

Every visible one shows it. The other ones who did it had injuries that even cause death yet they survived. Garou at the start wasn't aware why he healed(before he got his own regen after Orochi fight).

This only applies to those who can break a wall of their limiter and those who can overcome death, not everyone with willpower.

Well a low level seems to be present, at least, but since the potency varies so much I wonder if it's due to that or if it's more of a personal thing.

Because the damage also varies.

Saitama seemigly sufered internal injuries based on the crackings and his muscles being torn while training. (also every deep injury he got from his enemies) Bro ain't paying for hospital and goes for grocery store instead

Garou (before he gained his own regen) healed from being slashed multiple times and having his torso crushed.

Phoenix man regenerates from being crushed, slashed, broken bones and many kind of interal damage(organs etc). He also states his situation as (overcoming death).

He was planning to make Child Emperor experience the same and have growth as well.

Also every other one (unknown characters that Gyoro tested) surviving from injuries that cause death.

Oh, there are some other additions about it as well that shows it's willpower related regeneration and not being healed by someone else etc.

Because other characters like Tanktop Master who was in near death situation, didn't achieve explosive boost or broke a wall of his limiter. He was healed by someone else and was saved.

Gyoro had made many gain explosive boost using this method, we know it doesn't work with external regeneration. Meaning all of those who overcome death regenerated themself, from deadly injuries. It was also the case for Garou and Phoenix Man, would be the same for Saitama as well.

Which shows that those with willpower enough to overcome death or break a wall of their limiter can regenerate when it happens.
