** There are ''multiple'' grim reapers, because that title is just a job for beings that are capable of bringing mortals to the afterlife, except a different reaper every time one appears and each one's personality and kindness varies.

* '''Straight''': Bob meets Death, expecting Him to be a cloaked, scythe-wielding skeleton. Turns out Death is just that, but also a kind and compassionate individual

* '''Downplayed''': Death is a PunchClockVillain; he isn't friendly, but he doesn't make his job ''more'' unpleasant than it has to be.

** Death doesn't like the press He's been getting lately and decides that a change of appearance and tone is needed.
** Old Grim, being an AnthropomorphicPersonification, [[ShapedLikeItself has an appearance dependent upon what people think he's supposed to look like]], and all the Fanart about a sexy, female Death kinda changed how people think he looks.
** Alternatively: Despite Death being a kind and personable fellow, people simply don't like the [[DeathIsASadThing services he provides]], so the media portrays him as evil.

** Death's role is that of {{psychopomp}}, and so he has chosen an image that puts the deceased at ease so that they will follow him to the next world willingly rather than having to be dragged from this mortail coil kicking and screaming.

** Death is worried His next client is going to be the same frightened lump they all turn out to be. Death is surprised to find that Bob has been waiting patiently for Death and is glad to see him.

** Death has all of the personality of a Roomba, it just cleans up after life is gone and him not being around would [[AndIMustScream leave your soul conscious in your corpse for eternity]]. Hating it would be a pointless misdirection and calling it evil just silly.

* '''Implied''': Bob has a near-death experience. When he comes back, he mentions a kind and friendly man in black robes. It is not clear, but it is implied the man was Death.
