Okay, i'm gonna say fair play to the dark matter not being purgatory flames... that might just be general demon magic that demons can use. The purgatory fire is probably closer to Hellblaze, so it has to look like fire or perhaps have a name behind it?

I'll agree with Rrmcklin, that the idea of Ban having his soul taken is almost impossible. Nakaba could do it, but's incredibly unlikley. Ban is a main character, so for plot purposes he can't really lose his life right now. Another thing to note is that Ban's overall power is what will most likely contribute to the commandments gaining their magic back. We know that the average giant is stronger than the average human, which Monspiet points out will let him recover more magic faster (when he trying to eat Diane's soul). Based on that point alone, i would say that there is evidence to suggest the more powerful the opponent, the more magic they recover upon ingesting their soul. Which means that Meliodas's soul might be worth a full recovery or half, but, Ban's is far off that.

You mentioned that Ban has an infinite amount of life energy in his body... but, the truth is that the fountain of youth is probably a potion that became part of his blood. So in retrospect it's his blood that makes him immortal (Vampires of Edinburgh part 2, for evidence). If anyone could hold the title of 'having an infinite amount of life energy' Escanor would have that, because of what his ability is... not saying he does, but if anyone did he would.

Don't worry about me telling it to people, i've already gotten a lot of my friends into this series and they agree it's awesome.
