You say you removed Sesshoumaru on the grounds that he avoids being hit and it was a plot device that gave him the natural ability to regenerate a strike to the heart. However, Naraku avoids being hit, too, and also relied on multiple plot devices to do it. When the two characters have been hit, they\'ve both been able to regenerate their wounds. Naraku\'s been more vulnerable to injury than Sesshoumaru, who will mostly NoSell an attack or tank injuries into not being life-threatening. Three times he\'s been in danger of life-threatening injuries, the first two he was protected by Tenseiga\'s magical barrier and the third time he gained the ability to regenerate his heart. Naraku is not so capable of tanking injury, hence the onstant quest for protection, and never gained the ability to regenerate his heart.

MadeOfDiamond and MadeOfAir don\'t apply to Naraku. His body is very vulnerable to injury until he gains legendary armour and he credits that armour several times for protecting him. He does flee from battle a couple of times by using miasma but the story doesn\'t say whether he turns into miasma or cloaks himself in it. Fans have debated that for years.

However, Naraku avoids being hit, too, and also relied on multiple plot devices towards this end. When the two characters have been hit, they\'ve both been able to regenerate their wounds. Naraku\'s been more vulnerable to injury than Sesshoumaru, who will mostly NoSell an attack or tank injuries into not being life-threatening.

Naraku\'s regeneration is no different to many other characters until he hides his heart. Then it\'s made clear striking his heart will kill him, no matter where it is. At this time, his head is never destroyed so the issue of whether it can regrow never occurs. Fans can make up what they want on that front. In the story, his head always remains intact while his body is broken into pieces. To regenerate, those pieces all rejoin. Before he hid his heart he had to rely on barriers and only hid the heart because his enemies were getting better at smashing his barriers to injure him. When he took his heart back into his body, he used the legendary armour to protect him. The story also doesn\'t claim hiding the heart is exclusive to Naraku, and implies it\'s a common knowledge tactic among youkai which is why characters realise what Naraku\'s done. Even Kagura benefits in this way from having a missing heart.

Naraku is not MadeOfDiamond. His body is very vulnerable to injury until he gains legendary armour. He gives credit to the armour on several occasions for saving his life. As to MadeOfAir, he has, very rarely, used miasma to flee from battle. The story doesn\'t confirm whether he transforms into miasma or whether he cloaks himself in miasma to obscure his position. Fans have been making their own interpretation on that for years.

Regeneration: The manga\'s never raised the subject of regrowing a destroyed head where Naraku or Sesshoumaru are concerned. Fans can argue what they want about that. That puts Sesshoumaru and Naraku in the same boat since neither of them have had their heads destroyed. Naraku\'s body has been blown to pieces but his head has always remained intact and the broken pieces of the body have rejoined back together. That only ever happened while he was hiding his heart, however, and it was made clear that striking his heart would definitely kill him even then. Before then, he used barriers to avoid being hit or survived through extreme luck (something that applies to plenty of other characters in the story, too, such as Inuyasha).
