The ability to activate cellular functions. Sub-power of Cell Manipulation and Overclocking. Opposite to Cell Death Inducement.
Also Called[]
- Cellular Acceleration/Invigoration/Stimulation
- Cell Activation (My Hero Academia)
Capabilities[]
The user can activate cells within an organism's body, stimulating cellular functions, increasing physical attributes such as speed and healing, or maybe accelerating them with enough speed and energy to produce heat, destroying them. It can also be used offensively on targets by causing unnatural cell activation, causing cancer. The activation of cells can cause a temporary optimization, making the affected looking younger.
Applications[]
- Accelerating Regeneration
- Body Temperature Manipulation
- Cellular Disintegration
- Enhanced/Supernatural Condition
- Healing
- Mitosis Manipulation
- Mutation Inducement
- Nerve Stimulation
- Plant Growth
- Regeneration Regulation
- Size Manipulation
Associations[]
- Accelerated Bodily Production
- Biological Manipulation
- Cell Manipulation
- Life-Force Manipulation
- Molecular Oscillation
- Organic Combustion
- Regeneration Manipulation
Limitations[]
- Accelerating cellular functions (especially cellular division) may shorten the user's lifespan by causing telomeres to shorten faster.

Taisuke Kanō (Alive: The Final Evolution) using his Destruction and Rebirth to activate cells, either regenerating or destroying them, with the side effect of generating heat and fire due to cell acceleration...
...his power of Destruction and Rebirth explained in detail by Yūta Takizawa.
Kyoko Kirisaki (Black Cat) using her Tao power, Heat, which is a basic application of using one's ki to accelerate cell function, increasing her bodily temperature.
Aoba Takatsu's subordinates (Code:Breaker) possess the ability Cell Stimulation, which causes their cells to grow and regenerate whenever they are attacked, gaining in size and power as long as not all of their cells are destroyed at once.
The Black King (Drifters) rapidly activating the cells in the Bronze Dragon's body, riddling him with cancer.
By using their regenerative abilities to alter their bodies' volume and concentrating the nerves throughout their entire bodies, Namekians like Piccolo (Dragon Ball series) can invigorate their cell growth to stretch their limbs...
...and grow to a massive size.
Lucy (Elfen Lied) using her vectors to stimulate Kouta's cells, healing his mortal wounds.
