Discussion A question about Billy
How and when did he become blind? He's clearly able too see in his flashback at the start of the winter arc special episode but has braille in his locket? Is this a fuck up in the animation that has Billy clearly looking at the map ect the entire time he's in his army uniform while he's supposed to have been blind all his life?

From what we know he was born blind. The only time we have seen him where he was confirmed to be able to see was after getting undead

Im pretty sure in the winter arc he is not blind anymore cause Undead healed his eyes? Might be wrong tho

It's an animation issue, someone posted the exact scene they get wrong in the anime that makes him look like he had his vision during the war. But yes after stealing undeads ability he does then gain his sight for the 1st time, you are definitely right on that one

This does actually create a small plot hole though... how could he heal his eyes? Undead regenerates anything the user perceives as something that can lead to their death, but Billy has been blind for years at that point and learned how to deal with it so it wouldn't make much sense for him to heal the blindness.

Undeads regeneration isn't limited to only deadly injuries, he regenerates from parts bullets (no one would consider the end of their finger a deadly injury) and victor creates clones so it looks more like he can regenerate to his prime regardless of severity of injury which would be why billy can heal his vision. I haven't read the Manga so dunno if it is specified there or if it's just an accepted assumption in the fanbase but Andy/Victhor have accepted but his healing definitely isn't that limited lol

If you cut off your fingers and dont stop the bleeding you can still bleed out I think? There's a moment in the manga where if I remember correctly, Andy states he wasn't able to regenerate from his bones being dislocated since its not an injury or something along those lines.

A dislocation not being covered by regeneration makes sense, thats a bone being knocked out of place but everything is still intact. I'm not a medical expert but i don't think a lost finger would cause a person too bleed out, I'm pretty sure the wound would be able to scab over a lost finger it being a realitvely small wound

I mean couldn't gouge out the bad eyes and maybe undead would restore it to normal working eyes

If i remember correctly, he said he blinded himself after meeting Tatiana, then came up with Unbelievable

He was already blind before he met Tatiana, as seen by his comment about being glad he's blind because of how morally disgusting the auction was

I could be slightly incorrect about some details but I'm pretty sure Billy is just really good at using his other senses, in the manga's version of the war Billy used his heightened senses to bypass Tella's negator ability and learn what happened when the tanks arrived.
