Having just recently finished the manga I want to just speak about something that has always bothered me in regard to the Shinigami.
The fact that they bleed and have organs.
This right here has always just been weird to me. Because they're these composed of spiritual energy, why the hell do they still need beating hearts? Why do they need a certain amount of blood? Why do they still require organs? Why do they appear to die in the same sense that normal humans do?
I'm sure the out of universe reason is that Kubo just doesn't care and that a lot of the powers and abilities he thought up require this.
However, in-universe, why do they function the way that they do?
I know Bleach doesn't have the same concept of spirits as we normally do, but still it's just something that I sit up and think about a lot.
What do the rest of you think about this?
