Soul Reapers are already spirits, but from what I've seen/heard in the anime/manga they can get hungry, get sick, get hurt, even get killed. So, I wondered to myself what happens when they die (from execution for crimes like Rukia almost did, in battle like Kaien did, from sickness like Ukitake might in the future crying ect.) as I wondered... I stumbled unto a theory (& fell on my arse j/k) xd
*ahem* My theory is about Kaien Shiba & Ichigo Kurosaki. I believe Ichigo to be Kaien Shiba reincarnated for the following reasons:
1. Kaien was an upbeat and kind, young man who treated all his subordinates equally, though his initial introduction depicted him as rough-mannered. He was shown to be easily annoyed, but usually because he felt others were putting themselves down unnecessarily (e.g. Rukia Kuchiki) or because of Sentaro Kotsubaki and Kiyone Kotetsu's antics. He was a father/older brother figure to Rukia. He was also a prodigy amongst shinigami; graduating from a six year curriculum in just one year and becoming a lieutenant five years after.
^ similar personality to Ichigo + that he was a prodigy could link to Ichigos natural soul reaping talent & ability to see ghost (which may be traits from his past life)
2. In terms of appearance, and in some cases, personality, Kaien had an uncanny resemblance to the series' protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki. Kaien's hair is spiky, long in the back, and black. (resemblance may have been why Rukia gave him her powers & seems to have affection for him)
Kaien Shiba
Ichigo Kurosaki
(predicts that Ukitake may pick Ichigo as his new lieutenant)

Things to discuss:
My theory: possible holes in my theory, things that support it, ect.
Is there life after death after life after death?: If no why? If yes which one of my theories do you believe? If none of mine make up your own theory and explain it?
Anime/Manga Spoilers: post any spoilers you know that prove or disprove me.

MistressOfTheShadows RabidAnt Further spoilers! Kaien shows up again of a sport in Heuco Mondo (sp?) as an Arrancar. So no, Ichigo cannot be Kaien as Kaien's spirit was devoured by the Arrancar. ah, but it could be that it was not completly... perhaps the personallity & heart within the soul was freed when he was killed the first time & only his memories and "spirit body" remained with the hallow... With just those it could mimic him without having his complete soul.
chances are no. i mean.. it's possible that some parts of him escaped, but it's more likely that, due to ichigo's birth date and the occurance of the events, the similarities are more coincidence than fate
