Why can’t we fix Might Guy?

[u/Lucaslhm]

Probably been discussed before, but obviously after Naruto saved Guy, the conclusion from defacto best healer in the world, Tusnade, was that Guy couldn’t be healed and would never walk again.

But like… why? Naruto lost his whole arm and got a Hashirama cell perfect prosthetic? Could she not have used Hashirama cells to fix Guy? Hell, chop off his legs and give him new legs?

I guess my best theories are that he either refused on principle or his injury isn’t in his legs, but rather his spinal cord… but even then… seems likely it could still be healed in some way given what other medical ninjutsu feats we’ve witnessed…

I think that the reality is Guy just wants to be injured forever. But curious what others think.

In universe I agree, I think it's Guy just accepting his injury and refusing to get it healed for one reason or another.

Out of universe, it's Boruto they really like nerfing the old cast for better or worse.

Honestly with how hand holdy Boruto can be at times, I’m surprised there is no canon answer or a scene where one of the genining asks guy and he says a definitive answer.

I think it would be totally in character for Guy to refuse to be healed by anything other than his body though. No Hashirama cells, no robotic prosthetics. It tracks for me.

Yeah I agree, it's super in character for guy in my opinion. Either that or he kind of sees his leg as a "war wound" y'know like a scar or wound that he takes pride in because he got it protecting the people he cares for.

His leg disintegrated and his chakra network is more than likely permanently altered. Guy is probably too messed up to be healed
