what if they just didnt try hard enough?

e.g. Ruby does it by accident and is able to make it work, showing that every single grimm they have killed had a soul.

bonus points if....

A. the grimmm were brainwashed or otherwise provoked into atacking the other species

B. the Grimm are otherwise peaceful beings (their appearence could of been warped with whatever changed them, or could be a battle mode)

C. whenever a grimm gets killed by a hunter, their soul gets destroyed. e.g. quincy arrow effect (it even mostly has the same animation
