Yes his appearance is very good and his scythe being in the clock tower. But he has zero personality.

double scythe dance moves, bitchin' pink pimp robe, and that laugh soundbyte all want a word with you

He's not generic and not "a grim reaper", you're taking NA and PAL localisations of the original CV's instruction manual out of context. There is only "1" Death in the CV universe, there are not multiple grim reapers or Death(s).

There is only one Grim Reaper which is Death: Thanatos or Mors. Multiple grim reapers aren't in European mythology but Japanese mythology. In the original CV he is mentioned as a Shinigami however Death is clearly based off of European mythology as traditional Japanese Shinigami do not dress in a cloaked robe wielding a large Sythe.
