"Soul Reaper" is a better cultural translation, "Death God" is just the literal translation of shinigami. "Soul Reaper" just makes more sense than "Death God", since "God" usually refers to one entity of worshipped existence, and there would be like over a million Gods of Death, all of which are not famously known to the human world nor worshipped. Hence why I prefer the cultural translation, as opposed the literal word translation. If not a cultural translation, then the original "shinigami" would've been fine too.
I haven't seen the English version of Bleach, but I heard it was a pretty good dub so far.
