Wait I though Nemo's Regen explicitly did not cover her eyeballs!
Her regen has gotten stronger over time as people sunk exp into it.

For HSR purposes they're "limbs," not "vital organs." They heal on their own in a few hours/days at Second Blood rank.Wait I though Nemo's Regen explicitly did not cover her eyeballs!

Don't be silly. Eyeballs aren't internal organs. They're simple, like entire limbs.

look i didn't make the canon okay
We clearly should have voted for Nemo to go full freakshow to creep our three opponents out so much that they decide saving their friends isnt worth witnessing her.
Though Tatsuki might just have developed the power to fight with her eyes closed so she can beat Nemo up without having to watch.

So, Descorrer or HSR for build? Seems HSR does have utility beyond combat, too.

I feel like it's mainly about the damaged things being vital to survival and flow of reiatsu. So say she gets stabbed in the lung, it presumably deals with getting reiatsu into and around the body, so that energy has trouble trying to fix the detailed organ that brings it in and distributes it. An eyeball on the other hand is mostly just a normal thing, it's not spiritually complex even if it is physically complex.
No wonder Nemo was able to provide such insight into the Yammy Project, she understands surgery and vivisection as a practitioner and subject at the same time.
I'd wager that's understanding the Octava just doesn't have.

I dunno. Given how fucking crazy his Resureccion is i wouldn't be surprised if he had experimented with himself to get those effects. If Mayuri can do so with his Zanpakuto, Szayel can probably do it with himself.

omake idea, nemo having minor ethical issues with someone wearing a fur coat, a counter point that she's wearing leather takes the conversation in an unexpected direction.
I wouldn't put anything past him honestly, I'm just making assumptions but I wouldn't be surprised if he had.

This is what I would go with, if I was writing things.
Like, imagine an airplane. It has hydraulics to lower the landing gear, with a pump to power them. If the hydraulic pump gets damaged, but you have the parts to fix it, you're fine as long as you don't need to actually land for a while. You just shut all the valves, turn off the pump, and fix it.
On the other hand, if the fuel pump that feeds the engine gets damaged, you have a much bigger problem, because you can't afford to turn off that pump for very long. Even though the fuel pump is not hugely more complicated or difficult to service than the hydraulic pump.
Wasn't that explicitly the case? Like, didn't he brag to Mayuri about how he had modified himself to become perfect?

Planes have a lot of redundancy. It's the same for both pumps, switch them off and use secondary pumps instead. They get fixed after the landing. Your point stands still.
Now if ghost monsters had backup organs that activate when an organ gets too damaged, or if they could just do without the organs for a while, long enough to grow new ones.

unfortunately , nemo was not designed with as much redundancy as an airplane. Most of her organs don't have backups. humans maybe be able to be ok with one kidney or lung for a bit, as well as live a few minutes without a liver, but who the hell knows how it works with whatever weird ghost organs Nemo has instead of normal squishy meat organs. Given it's a far higher energy system I would buy turning off her ghost liver for repairs being risky.

My take on it is that organs needed for simple bodily survival are spiritually more complex and more tied to the integrity of your make-up as a ghost. You can still survive fine without an arm, it's just (very) inconvenient. Without lungs or a stomach, Nemo couldn't breathe or would starve to death, so they're harder to reconstruct.
This probably means that she can regenerate a lot of partial damage to her intestinal track, but not the entire thing if it was destroyed, or something. Similarly you can't survive without a liver so that would be a fatal wound, but the liver is the only regenerating organ in the human body so it could actually regenerate from partial destruction with HSR. She could also probably regenerate her gall bladder, for instance, despite it being an internal organ. I'm not sure how it applies to the kidneys. You need your kidneys to live, but you only strictly need one.

Off hand, the eyes are pretty much an extension of the brain? Very specialized and with a bit of wrapper in terms of the vitreous humor, cornea, lens etc, but in a lot of ways they're exposed brain-bits. Eye regen seems a lot like, I dunno, regenerating a bit of the frontal lobe after a lobotomy.
I'd expect both of them to be super heinous injuries striking at the core of their spiritual being, with similar difficulties in terms of getting healed.

the actual eyes are separate organs. your thinking of the optical nerve and the visual cortex.

As I understand it, the thread more-or-less turned into a saltpan.Wasn't there this whole thing where the thread got really heated about eyeball removal some time ago?
On the other hand I always found it weird they even had or needed internal organs. They are all uniquely mutated monster ghost why do they need to breath or even have blood? Hell I always saw them eating things as more absorbing energy instead of digesting food so they don't even need a stomach really.

What I'm hearing is there are not enough necromancers who dabble in soul surgery, crafting and creating abominations. Just the one, but he's far too intimidating to bother, Big man Aizen himself.
And maybe that crazy scientist from the soul society. But again, too intimidating.
I feel like I'm forgetting someone obvious besides those two, nah.
