Are you serious?
what do you do while sleeping? You, the guy behind the screen?
Har har. He's fighting like a madman while unconscious. Even if he's asleep he's not getting any rest, he'll give out.

...literally any high internal damage.
Be specific. What won't kill you but will incap you, will also being unhealable with High-Low regen (lesser spirit healing magic) which can reattach lost limbs, and restore a sliced-open gut? In the first place, a nerfed Reinhard covered in wounds proceeded to win a 1v2 against god tiers with a sword inside his abdomen.

Regenerating internal damage (organ damage etc.) of that scale requires at least Low-Mid.

High-Low isn't bad, but not enough to regen against Garou's dur neg.
 
What's the reason for dp of first sight and second sight not being mentioned in a equal fight? You can dodge someone who's as fast as you with analytical prediction and intuition which Reinhard both has.
 
Does Garou have a counter to this?
Attack reflection
Attack reflection and deflection, if you actually hit him he would send the force of the attack into the ground or surroundings essentially negating all damage done to him
Olbart has a technique which is literally the fist of water (you attack him and he reflects all the damage back to you with his own force added) however this specific technique is a different version and is more on the negation of damage spectrum instead of reflecting it back, I dont recall Garou having a feat of dealing with that.
You said attack reflection would counter pp
kachon is saying that garou scales above characters who can skill def attack reflection
ur saying another character has negation

how exactly does this tie into reinhard exactly? also what makes negation in this case matter exactly? The rux o ur argument relies on attack reflection and as far as potency goes when it comes to just the mere act of attack (what matters here) an attack with negation and an attack with attack relection would both be the same here
Unquantifiable because it is physically impossible and has no explanation to make it otherwise. The volume between rain drops in an average rain storm is always less than the volume of a human body.

Means nothing in a debate of skill as a result.
It is quantifiable, we can just equate it to dodging danmaku, since whether it's logically possible or not irl doesn't change the fact he's still dodging a lot of small objects coming at him, so we can at least equate it to that

as far as how this affects garou, garou has been forced to deal with similar shenanigans, so it doesn't matter, just wanted to point that out
Reinhard's passive auto dodge also only works against ranged attacks and it is still not a 100% thing. It is possible for characters to hit Reinhard in combat on many occasions. Especially if we're talking about close combat.
This does seem to be true (The re;zero stans haven't properly addressed this)
If you want to say Reinhard wins because of bit AoE space slash or existence erasure then say that, but don't be disingenuous.
what does garou do about this anyway is the main concern


will read the rest later (leaning towards garou atm)

No one is saying that he didn't actually do it. They're saying that it's not quantifiable.

Let's say Reinhard is inferior based on literally every type of skill but he can dodge rain while the other person can't. You literally can argue it being higher since it's an impossible feat, but it is worthless since it's not even quantifiable.
Reinhard dodging rain is still a argument. Its just not a skill argument.
 
Regenerating internal damage (organ damage etc.) of that scale requires at least Low-Mid.

High-Low isn't bad, but not enough to regen against Garou's dur neg.
No, Low-Mid is for major organ damage, High-Low covers minor. A non-fatal wound will just be healed by the spirits. He can also objectively thug out fatal wounds and fight the same, while getting stronger on account of Bloodshed DP, and then reset with Phoenix DP.
 
Reinhard can be hit. I do know the re:zero verse well (though I may be forgetting something so someone correct me if it is) but the main conditions to hit him is be faster than him massively (Cecilus who is the fastest character did not land an attack on Reinhard) because if he's that physically gapped he cant do anything. The attack is conceptual or just tracking such as gae bolg. A wide aoe spam that leaves absolutely nothing to be covered like nothing. Rezero characters have dodged rain and light and other danmaku attacks so aoe just has to have no chance.

I specifically said "of that scale" based on Garou's dur neg. It requires Low-Mid or more.

People who sleep walk still get rest. Sleeping is a weird phenomenon that we don't really understand, but it somehow refreshes the brain, and that's all that really matters for mental endurance.

As for physical endurance, I mean, Garou pretty much continued fighting battle after battle (and sleep-fighting in-between battles) for the entire monster association arc, without really stopping. And any time he takes damage he just regenerates and morphs into a superior form.

Once he evolved against Saitama he wasn't even that human anymore. Like, his arms are basically pure solid at this point. I don't really think he'd feel the same physical exhaustion a human does.

I mean it kinda is, it's just that it dosen't matter because if reinhard is rain dodging in the sense of dodging rain garou can rain-spam in the sense that he's able to attack things that move like rain while in a weakened version of a weaker key so "reinhard can rain odge therefore garou can't hit him!" isn't sustainable
 
Also Reinhard has several divine Protections that raise his stats which would include his speed no? That's an ability in itself and even if their base is same characters having an ability that allows themselves to be amped statically has always been accepted.

It doesn't compare to Garou's RE.

Also most of his amps are always active, so applying some of them are hard since they're actually already included to his known AP. Some of them are easy to apply in a fight though like "bleeding makes you stronger" etc.

bulls*** RE makes the stat boosts irrelevant

garou can jump to a blitz diff mid fight and not only that but since he's constantly growing in skill the time it'll take for him to do that again would be shorter than last time so this alone is never keeping up

He was huffing and panting in chapter 162(?) was he not? That implies exhaustion.

The fight starts with Reinhard being amped so it starts with difference im speed. I just think Reinhard who is now faster than Garou defeats him before RE can take place.

Uh no. His current stats already include those amps. It's not "speed is equal and then those amps apply the moment it starts".
 
Well I'll wait a few more hours before grace is over since I don't really favour either sides right now.

This assumes he gets pass attack reflection, garous copying ability, garous myiad of other martial arts he could switch to on a dime to handle reinhards swordsmenship in the very short amount of time before garou blitz diffs

It isnt, and enough people, myself included, have argued as to why this is not a skill argument. It is still a feat that Reinhard performed, wether or not it matters in this match is for the knuckelheads here to argue out.

Reinhard's physical stats are about the same even when he loses his dp so to say it affected his current stats is not true, they never made a different. They just show an advantage when they are in a scenario like this.
 
Thats for the Rezero goobers to find out. I for sure do not grant them the "Its skill 4head" copeout.
I mean this is a bit odd but if a character achieves something supernatural through skill why does it not count as skill? Concept cutting is a skill many characters throughout fiction achieve with skill.

Rain dodging is probably as much of a skill thing as concept cutting is because skill in fiction is bs and not applicable to real world skill.

No. It just means not all of the divine protection amps are high.

"You're stronger in the morning", "You're stronger at night" those types of divine protections that are always active, they don't cause a known increase since they're already active.

👍

Edit: I just realised thumbs up make me look bitter but its a short way of that's fair to me lol
 
I am pretty sure that was more frustration than exhaustion.
I don't agree, huffing and puffing is almost always a sign of being pushed to your limit, rather than one of being upset or angry. Your claim is that Garou does not physically tire which you haven't shown proof for, just a regen scan. This is entirely trumped by Reinhard being ceaseless on account of DPs making up for his limited stamina (which by itself still seems like better stamina than Garou's by the way).

Rain dodging is probably as much of a skill thing as concept cutting is because skill in fiction is bs and not applicable to real world skill.
It'd only be used a skill comparison against other skill-based conceptslop users.

Not really sure how Garou's sleepwalkong works but sleepwalking does not equal active sustained fighting, it typically happens during non REM deep sleep where the body is on autopilot but thw movements are usually simple and limited, fighting like a madman is nothing like that because jt requires continuous complex motor function and high brain activity which directly disrupts the restorative processes of sleep, so comparing a sleepwalker slowly pacing around to someone brawling nonstop is a false equivalence.

Oh no, he can still use his martial arts and etc.

Not some simple attack mode where he just throws a fist or anything like that.
 
Yeah reinhard needs to use his spacial EE nuke or he just kinda loses ngl

First of all I haven't really seen too much that differentiates Reinhard's raw swordsmanship from Garou's mrtial arts, the main thing here is his intuition and where that scales

he upscales from characters who can read perception blitz danmaku; however, Garou has adapted similar things before, while in an enclosed area, I might add

For refference, golden bullets attacks were so fast garou had to read his hand movements to guess his trajectory in order to just narrowly dodge one meaning the attack is not only way faster than him but it's fast enough to the point he has to prepare to dodge long before the attack is launched so it's pretty obv he can't percieve the attack itself, making it FTE

This is human garou btw, bang skill diffs stuff like this and garou in this key competes with him

While defensively Reinhard's intuition would help, it doesn't change the fact he has to end this quickly, or he gets steamrolled by RE, and since it seems like he doesn't lead with his 1000-kilometer EE, it's more likely Garou would have grown to a point he can just dodge or win beforehand

Edit: forgive my a** punctuation here, I'm multitasking atm

Garou FRA

Right but sleepwalking is only restful because the brain stays in deep non REM cycles while the body runs on autopilot. But if Garou’s pulling off full martial arts or coordinated strikes or defensea or techniques yada yada then that’s way beyond simple motor autopilot. That means his brain is actively engaged in high level processing and if the brain is active like that it’s not in a restorative sleep state. What i waa tryna say is Unconsciousness ≠ rest. That’s why anesthesia or even passing out doesn’t refresh you like real sleep does as you need proper sleep cycles. So if he’s genuinely fighting at that level while asleep, there’s no reason to assume he’s getting any actual rest from it.

Yeah and I'm saying while it isn't logically possible irl we can't just dismiss it as nothing so we can just equate it to dodging bullet hell danmaku, which is a viable skill feat it's just nothing compared to garou

... Why do you assume i agree with concept cutting being skill in the first place? Its the same contrived nonsense. In fact, you will find me break my back to justify rain dodging as skill before i will do so for that shit. Its not. And I have written an entire schizophrenia manifesto to argue this very point, but to keep it short.

Skill is born of the limitations of biomechanics and physics. It determines your ability to fight. And you fight under the limits of physics and within the means of biomechanics. Thats how your body works and thats how your body interacts with reality. Those 2 factors are the thing that separates fake martial arts and useful ones like boxing.

No amount of biomechanics, no amount of precision will ever net you the cutting ability to slice concepts. Its not that it is physically impossible, because its not our reality that limits fictional skill, its that there is no logical, causal chain that goes from cutting ever harder and harder things to cutting metaphysical things. There just isnt. Its not impossible (it is) that is the issue. Its that it is nonsensical. If I were to ask you "how hot the temperature of this particular flame is", you answering "leaf" does not answer my question.
