Mwahaha. I got you thinking about it. Mission accomplished.
It's interesting there doesn't seem to be a true sense of immrtals in an undying/aging way, but coming back from the dead isn't impossible. (Oh my. Zombiefic could fit into canon. Yeees. Maybe the jutsu done sliiightly wrong and they are now ravenous brain hungry but still retaining memories and unkillable...heh.)
If that's not actually souls but memories wound in their chakra then...What about how the genjutsu's work? How would it be any different than what happens in a genjutsu mindfuck, or does that raise the level of reality in the genjutsu happenings? And if that's just an echo of them in the seal, then they could be raised as well, or possibly all the zombies are the/also echoes of their souls?
I definitely think that the death diety deals with real souls and not fakey fake echoes. Unless maybe he was bargained with...I mean he had to talk to the ninjas at some point to get a summononing contract. Which means he either wants to help or maybe he...keeps...the souls that sign the summoning contract? -_- urp.
It feels like there is a genuine immortality schtick in there. Somewhere.
