This isn't really the place to defend my position but... I was basing that Buddhist realm thing according to the realms we've seen in Bleach canonically. Since we haven't seen anything beyond the Soul Society and don't know if a "heaven" exists or not, it seems logical to me to place the Gods of Death of the Spiritual Realm in the "heaven" realm, regardless of the bellicose personalities of those divine beings. Plus the promise that Shinigami give to Plusses before they send them over, that the Soul Society is a better place or whatever shit, suggests to me that Kubo really does have the Soul Society set as the "heaven" of the Bleach-verse. And if you're a non-Reiatsu soul there is no hunger, so that lines up.

But anyway I don't want to spark a debate here. We can also say that the Asura realm of amoral, power-hunger beings driven by greed and desire describes very well Hueco Mundo, where the only goals are "survive" and "eat as many of your fellow kind as possible." But anyway. Like I said, this isn't cause for debate.
