He doesn't appear in the final chapter of Bleach but that shouldn't
necessarily mean he's dead, right?

After the conclusion of his last fight, is Kisuke Urahara dead?


The official status of Urahara is **Unconfirmed**. While the evidence seems to
indicate that he died with Yoruichi and Grimmjow trapped in Askin's Gift Ball,
Kubo also gave them a way out. Nel was watching the battle from outside and
later decides to attempt a rescue attempt.

Wiki sums this up pretty nicely, but this is the last we see of these
characters.

> After being impaled once more by Grimmjow, who suddenly buckles alongside
> Urahara, Askin reveals that the power of his Gift Ball Deluxe magnifies upon

> his Bankai collapse as Urahara apologizes for leaving everything to Ichigo
> Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki

[Manga Chapter 666:

Kubo can also put these details in a databook later. I have seen that Bleach
rarely kills characters if they can be "brought back" from the brink of death,
so Urahara and others have a good chance of still being Alive.
