Death is a permanent thing. You can't just get better after dying.

If they have extra lives, then they won't be considered "dead" in the first place.

Death is the permanent termination of the biological functions that define living organisms - wikipedia

When all the "extra lives" were cut down, only then it would be considered dead.

They were killed, but they didn't die, since they came back.

>>1815692
If they have extra lives, then they didn't die in the first place, hence they didn't die when they were killed.

>> No.1815749

>>1815697
Living organisms don't have extra lives, and computer code doesn't have biological functions so that definition of death is completely invalid.

But if a phoenix dies and is reborn from the ashes, that doesn't change the fact it died in the first place.

What if they die three times and are reborn twice?

Technically, a "new" Phoenix is born from the ashes in most myth I've read of it, meaning it's a form of reproduction.

>> No.1815838

>>1815729

Then it wouldn't be called "killing." If it got stabbed in the heart and lost a life (out of the many it had), it wasn't "killed." Killing causes death (lol). Rather, saying that it was stabbed in the heart is more accurate than saying that it was killed.

If my mom gives birth to me right as (or right before) she dies, it doesn't change the fact that she's dead as a stone.

How does that change what I said?

You're trying to say that the phoenix didn't die because it's reproducing? It still died.

People never mention that it makes perfect sense for him to say that.

Shirou got killed 3 times in 1 day.

"Killed" being an assuredly lethal action with no possible way of surviving.

Oh, and he lived.

Turns out he's magic.

And swords.

And he died 3 times in 1 day. Hence "people die if they are killed..."
