Reincarnation

Reincarnation is the concept that after death, an individual's soul or essence is reborn in a new physical body, and is able to live a new life.

Reincarnation is a particularly important concept in the IDW continuity, due to Splinter and the Ninja Turtles being the reincarnations of the human ninja warrior Hamato Yoshi and his four sons. It is worth noting that reincarnation is not depicted as the norm, as other deceased individuals are depicted as moving on to some form of afterlife rather than being reborn.
