Yep. I'm the one who first translated her epithet 'absolute death, absolute life' then changed it into 'end of death, end of life'. It was not easy to decide,  because the world ' 絶' have two meanings - 'cut, stop, end' or 'very, extreamly'.

So, if we translate the chinese characters one by one then it will be  'absolute death, absolute life' - but you see, the word zetsumei( 絶命 ) means end of life = death. So if we read  the  chinese characters two by two, it will be  'end of death, end of life'. I selected the latter because most epithets of other BS members can be divided by two characters each.
