No, I specifically listed one person in the hopes that someone would try and say, "BUT BUT! HE WASN'T A SHINIGAMI!....TECHNICALLY!"Then I could bust out Gin. PWNED!
Then I could bust out the definition of what a shinigami is and then have more pwn.
The other outcome would be for no one to disagree and just agree that more than just Espada died. That way is certainly an easy way and there's not discussion in that path about Bleach. Besides, with such a weak chapter and a waning story, what else are we going to talk about other than the definition of a shinigami? Either way, there were two paths from my suggestion and each path had a bit of discussion...more than the last Bleach chapter is worthy of, IMO.
Except, I don't think anyone ever said that there were almost no shinigami casualties... just that there were almost no casualties on the "good" side.
