Hunter x Hunter - Immortality type 2 for Chimera Ants

[SpookyShadow]

I think Chimera Ants should have Immortality Type 2. Even Fodder Chimera Ants are capable of surviving with their heads cut off, bodies obliterated and necks snapped as shown on these three scans (and bonus with Meruem's feat):


Ortho siblings survived even after their heads were cut off by Killua.


Kite explains that you can kill Chimera ants permanently only after you crush their heads.


After Mosquito's all hands were cut off and head was snapped by Killua she was still alive


Also feat of Meruem, when he was still breathing after all of his limbs were reduced to ashes, and his torso barely survived the nuke.

 

[AstralKing7]

In would agree with his but the only problem I see being brought up is rather they were going to die right after those injuries in the first place

 

[SpookyShadow]

They were said by Kite to have enough life energy to come back one day though, and the guy was like cut in half by Gon's Scissors

The official translation just states that they can survive for a day without their heads.

 

[SpookyShadow]

That makes sense. Is it worthy to add to profiles or something? Like, limited Immortality Type 2?

 

[SpookyShadow]

Btw, Mangasoul...

 

[Damage3245]

Maybe Limited Type 2 Immortality, if there's an explanation added in brackets.

But I'm not 100% sure.

What about low mid regen since they can't survive without their heads?

Low-Mid: The ability to regenerate lost limbs, and even from severe organ damage or destruction, including traditionally fatal wounds and disembowelment or horizontal bisection. For machines and vehicles, this would be regenerating minor parts and more extensive internal damage.

They'd need to regenerate the head to get that regen

The feat is probably just being able to fight without their head, just like how people can still live without their fingers/limbs, but in this case it's the head

Mid: The ability to regenerate from decapitation or severe brain damage. For machines and vehicles, this would be regenerating from the destruction of critical parts, such as the engine.

Since they can only live for a limited amount of time without the hea dbefore dying, low mid sounds safer.

 

[Damage3245]

It's not Regenerationn.

The closest it is to an actual ability is Limited Immortality (Type 2).

 

[AstralKing7]

Jsut add full immortality 2 because limited isn't a thing for immortality

 

[Damage3245]

@AstralKing7; it shouldn't be full immortality because they still die of their injuries, just slower.

 

[SpookyShadow]

There are guys with Type 4 that can resurrect only once though.

Tbf none of the ants died from blood loss at all in the series. They were killed

 

[SpookyShadow]

Bump

 

[SpookyShadow]

I just noticed, Guts has limited Immortality type 2. So is this fine?

 

[Damage3245]

I'd be fine with Limited Immortality (Type 2) for the Chimera Ants.
