They can die in soul society again to be reborn in the world.

wtf. That seems like a pretty strange system. World > SS > Back to world > back to SS > Rinse and repeat? If the people that end up in this system keep their memories, I feel kind of bad for them. At least they don't turn into space particles for eternity or something. Though, one thing that baffles me is, when they reincarnate, for example, if Kenpachi died, and rebirthed as a human and died again would he go back to being Kenpachi or someone else? Even more interesting is what would happen to Ichigo.

That's how it's been from the start. It's essentially the reason why the quincy were exterminated. Their abilities destroy the soul and break the cycle of rebirth, which disrupts the balance of souls.

In Bleach, the soul is not an immortal being. They can be damaged and even destroyed...permanently. So no, shinigami's are not immortal by definition.

Maybe Kenpachi isn't immortal at all, maybe Unahona has death defying healing abilities. Remember back in SS arc when she healed Momo and Hitsu that both had fatal wounds? She could have a healing bankai. It would seem odd to put one of your strongest captains into the healing focused squad, unless her healing ability was as good, if not better, than her combat ability.

Just some speculation

We all know the only fatal wounds in this manga is you have to be literally cut in half or splattered across a boulder.

Unless you're a bad guy. Then you could get killed by a deep cut. Also, Minazuki isn't even activated yet. She's fighting kenpachi with a sealed zanpakuto.

technically dead people can still be saved, people are just too lazy to use orihimes super heal ability.

Heh, hardly, ol' Aizen got slashed in half, but he's quite alive.

Anyway, when I say fatal wound, I don't mean one that will kill you, but rather one that could if left untended or whatever. In the magical world of Bleach, there's no wound that absolutely will kill you, even for baddies. Its all just a matter of "Is there something or someone around that can heal/revive you?" or more specifically "Does KT still want you around?"

As for her not fighting with Minazuki, indeed, I was just thinking while he was out she could have done her "healing measures" thing (read: maybe Bankai) to revive him, but who knows.

Aizen's a bit of a bad example though, as he's the only one in this story who actually has an explainable excuse to survive anything. In any case, it really is pretty much impossible to distinguish fatal wounds from non-fatal wounds in this series. Harribel gets a deep slash wound and lives while Stark gets a similar injury and dies. Even characters who get bifurcated can live (Hiyori, Hitsugaya) while others don't (Yamamoto).

So I agree in that it really just comes down to whether Kubo still wants a character around not.

Nope, if you follow Dragonball Z Logic, its not about how u were cut, but how much Ki u have left. Freeza was cut in 2 and dying but Goku gave him some Ki and he starts flying again....

Did Ishida magically disappear from the plot? I mean he gave a simple no when Ichigo thought about going to Hueco Mundo. Are these new Quincies the reason why Ryuken had no pride of being a Quincy?

Stark, Gin, and even Yamamoto all seemed like they had enough energy to fight right up until they got fatally injured and killed. Conversely, other characters received similar injuries and lived. So I don't know if DBZ logic can always apply here. That's to say, there appears to be very little reasoning behind which injuries will prove fatal or non fatal in Kubo's universe. I mean unless a character gets blown to pieces and breaks down into particles, its hard to be convinced if they're as good as dead at that very moment.

Maybe one slash has more 'killing power' than another. Gin was cut by Butterflaizen, Stark was cut during Shunsui's shikai game, Yamamoto was cut by his own bankai. Conversely Tia was cut down by a simple slash from shinigami Aizen and he wasn't really trying to kill her but just...I dont even know why he cut her but there wasn't any 'finishing power' to it.
