**Red59145** , this appears to be about a video game. However, I think you need to give more explanation of what you are asking. You may start a new thread in the Game Room, but please flesh it out better.

In the anime all they tell you is that he’s “cursed”. Maybe someday they’ll tell you why he’s cursed. But I’m not counting on it.

Sorry, I think I misunderstood your question. He’s immortal because he’s cursed. He’s invulnerable because of some mysterious power he possesses.

But can he swim? Being immortal and forever drowning in the ocean seems like it would suck.

(I don’t know the answer to this, like I said, I bailed out after a few hundred episodes.)
