Pretty sure Nanami gets skill slammed and REfucked to oblivion. She gets her attacks water rock fisted and RE'd and it'll get to the point where nothing that Nanami does would harm Garou.

I fail to see why that would be the case when a)Their kits are very similar to each other, b) Nanami can copy Garou's physical strength/skill/abilities, and c)She has Infinite stamina thanks to her Akuto Bita so she can easily outlast him.

While she can definitely do that I don't think the "Kyotōryū "Red Poppy" and "Daphne" Hybrid Striking Technique" is a first move for her. Plus like Nanami, Garou also has Analytical Prediction, Instinctive Action, Technique Copying, and can grow stronger during combat so I wouldn't call this a skill stomp.

But like... how is Garou supposed to die? Not only does Garou have Limited Immo 2 via OPM Willpower, but also Regen and Immense Pain Tolerance. The bolded are in base btw. This guy is in Monster Hunter form, which enhances those abilities + more to literal crack. He ain't dying any time soon.

Nanami also has Immortality(Type 2), Regeneration(Low-Mid), and Infinite stamina, so I'd say they're evenly matched in this category.
Outdamaging someone with Low-Mid Regeneration is very much possible so both characters are more than capable of taking each other out. In fact Nanami's "Kyotōryū "Red Poppy" and "Daphne" Hybrid Striking Technique" is specifically meant to counter characters with Regeneration by doing just that:
  • Kyotōryū "Red Poppy" and "Daphne" Hybrid Striking Technique: Thousands of piercing strikes from the fingertips, performed at such speeds that they are invisible to the naked eye and kill the opponent 272 times before they have finished reacting to the initial movement. By simultaneously inflicting so much death, Kyotōryū users can even kill immortal opponents with this move.

Pretty sure when he gets hit with one, he develops a resistance to the rest of them.

Last time I checked Garou never gains any resistance to physical attacks through his Reactive Evolution. He simply becomes more durable by growing stronger, which remains true even in his later keys, so I don't see why this would even be the case here.

My point still stands. He is able to gain resistance to supernatural/non-physical abilities but was never shown to be able to develop resistance to physical attacks, which is why he can still be damaged by other characters in his level. What his Reactive Evolution does is it makes him so durable to the point of no-selling the strikes of weaker characters, which won't be the case here as these 2 are both capped at 7-A.

Another thing. Garou starts in 7-A. He isn't capped in 7-A. Garou upscales massively from 315 due to RE and when he's in Half Monster, his limiter was starting to break, so his strength would be increasing exponentially until he's the highest end of 7-A.
 
And one more thing... Garou gets stronger when fighting stronger opponents and through said RE. As stated in the tiering section: at least 7-A with Reactive Evolution.
At least implied that he grows stronger.
Nanami doesn't.
Also... Garou has an EXCRUCIATINGLY LARGE LS advantage over Nanami. Garou is ripping her shit.
Put my vote in Garou, Mid Diff.

I know, but that won't really matter as Nanami can copy the superior physical strength of anyone she looks at as explained here:
Higi: Migeika (Hidden Move: Sight Training): Nanami Yasuri was born with the eyes of gods. Nanami's eyes take in any detail against her will, reading any technique, movement, and weakness instantaneously. The moment Nanami sees the opponent take a stance, she knows and can predict and/or counter every move contained in their fighting style, including supernatural abilities. The first time Nanami sees a technique utilized, she can use it to the extent that its current user can. With each successive usage on her part, she improves it as much as it would have with an additional lifetime/generation of training. If she witnesses the technique being used a second time, she perfects it to the point that even countless generations of users inheriting and improving the technique wouldn't be able to surpass her version. This ability even allows her to break her natural limitations by seeing others do what she is completely incapable of, and can even replicate another individual's superior physical strength. This ability completely bypasses the generational increase of Ninpo, and the training requirements for most powers, and is noted to be "an existence that should not exist".
With that said, Nanami will be able to keep up with Garou's Reactive Evolution by doing the same thing he did in his fight against Saitama.

Lifting Strength is a viable wincon for Garou, though it seems only a handful of his techniques actually make use of them, the rest seems to be all striking techniques.

Counted.
 
Tbh it seems like they'd just be inconclusive, since they'd both just be stat-copying and skill-copying instantly, including the Lifting Strength. The only thing I could see swaying it is if Garou realizes she can't copy him if she can't see him, but it might be hard to come to that realization mid-fight.

The resistance thing is an interesting point; I'm actually not sure how that'd interact with Hybrid Striking. If he can fully resist it without dying then sure, but if he can't then she might eventually be able to get him with that.

If he's hit with anything, Garou just develop a resistance to said thing and a way to counter it.
 
Garou FRA. Don't see how Yasuri is making it past Garou's goated RE and general unkillable-ness

Sure. If Garou can find a way to blind Nanami then he wins, but with SBA that seems unlikely, so they both just keep copying and stat-amping idefinitely.

Also jury still seems to be out on whether he'd be able to adapt to Hybrid Striking in time.
