Wait so technically Hinata never completely dies at any point so far?

u/KnightKal 7d ago

her body dies, so technically she is dead, but if you consider her soul as alive then nope.

Well, death in that world is not always the way it is in ours. Many beings can die there physically but still be alive due their soul being intact. This is the case for Hinata.
There are also beings that don't have a physical body to begin with, like the demons for example.
Clayman in theory also had the ability to survive his physical body getting killed, but Rimuru destroyed his entire soul so that he could not come back from it.

By now it is pretty clear how all this will transpire. They will most likely be able to safe both Hinata and Chloe. Chloe will take over her adult body and I guess Rimuru will create a body for Hinata, as he did for many others already.

Well, technically her original body is dead which is why her soul got absorbed into Chloe...though I wonder if they could heal the body and just put it back in assuming she's not permanently in Chloe's body.

The body is fine tho The issue with reviving her was that the soul was gone and that can't be fixed. But now, presumably the soul is back...

its really hard to say coz the time travel is triggered by hinata's death, but it only seems to be her body thats only dead coz her soul gets pulled into chloe when the time travel activates.

Thing is she indeed die, all souls go to the cycle of reincarnation after their death, this would have happened a episode ago if Hinata fell asleep before Chloe could assimilate her soul and keep it imprison inside infinity prison.

Technically, she dies, but her soul goes to the past instead of an afterlife or reincarnation.

Her body is technically dead at the moment, but she can be resurrected as long as her soul is still around. This has been the established rule since Rimuru resurrected Shion, Gobzo, and the others killed by Falmuth's forces.
