-Mayuri proceeds to send out Starrk. Lol

In all seriousness, let's not be oblivious to the facts. Toshiro is colored the same as Bambietta and he didn't have a single lick of blood on him or his uniform. It's kinda obvious he's dead. Sorry fangirls and boys. Now whether he stays dead or not once Giselle is gone is still up in the air. I believe he'll stay dead for the following reason:

-I think Giselle has to have them ingest her blood before she kills them to make them actual Zombies. Think about it: the key factor to her power is her blood. Just killing them wouldn't turn them into Zombies. She probably came across him (and Rangiku if she wasn't already dead), dropped some blood into his mouth and ended him. So even if Giselle dies, she still killed him.

In all honesty, I thought something like this would happen. Why would Giselle just bring back unseated Shinigami? Why not bring back some real muscle if she was smart? Though honestly I thought it would be Kensei and Rose since Kubo clearly likes to make them fodder haha but Toshiro is cool too.
