Ok but that sounds like exactly the kind of shit test God puts people through in religious parables.
Give them an unbelievable and entirely random thing that SAYS it's supernaturally evil (and it actually is, but it's also so out of left field--) and if they don't take the warning at face value and put it back down they will go to hell forever or something.
a more advanced version of the death note, would be control devil contract from chainsawman, she only needs to hear the name to instantly kill the person, instead of a time delayed time bomb.
Ahhh, but if you attempt to kill someone and the fact that it could be a freebie is part of your decision process then it isn't a freebie. So having read this you no longer get a freebie.
Death Note should get a new series and it should be entirely about every evil billionaire currently alive in 2025
at the end of the series light becomes one of the god of deaths.
It starts off innocently but before long, you are eating snacks
One too many potato chips is all it takes.
the first thing I would do is write my name in it so no one steals it
Thank you! The first thing I do with every notebook is write my name on the first page (or inside cover)
If you think about it, ALL of my uses would be freebies
"This is the ~~LockPicking~~NotebookWritingLawyer... allow me to desmonstrate one more time to make sure that it is not a fluke"
"You shouldn't be trying to use a potentially supernatural notebook and accidentally cause the death of people. But if you ever find yourself accidentally become the owner of a death note, then you'll need a good lawyer, but if you need a great lawyer, contact my law firm. You don't just need a legal team, you need The Eagle Team!"
"What a cool notebook! I'm going to make this my new personal phone book and spend all afternoon putting all my contacts in it."
"Surely that was a fluke, it won't work for a second time!"
"Twice in a row? What are the chances. I wonder if it works with pencil instead of pen."
...
Apple pen !
Penpineappleapplepen!
I recently saw a sticker that said, "If at first you don't succeed, try a few more times to establish a baseline."
It could be 101: the first a surprise, the next 100 to establish a meaningful statistical correlation.
can you be my lawyer please
Death note would be impossible in current year. Like, your test use would have to be on a huge name otherwise your phone analytics would super rat you out. I can just imaging light starting to get ads for burner phones and VPNs.
Just subscribe to a major newspaper and write down everyone who sucks.
just don't Google them.
look
Ronald Reagan
It worked!
Doesn't a shinigami come and explain how it works? It's been a bit since I've seen death note so I don't remember if that happens before or after you use it. If it's before, there's no reason to assume it wouldn't work since a supernatural being appears to explain how it works which adds credibility.
In the anime, the shinigami only came after the first kill IIRC. Light only had the tutorial text in the notebook to go off of.
Second one is also free cause we all would use it on Musk the moment the first one worked with Trump.
What would you write down exactly?
I'd write that he get kidnapped, his SS failed, broadcasted live getting fucked slowly in ass by 'fucking machine' equipped with huge ass golden dildo made from gold jewelries he got in his safe, bleeding to death over hour.
Repeat with all other billionaires, one every day so we get to savior every moment of it. Each day will have anniversary of billionaire's death. Top 365 of worst of the worst, and then next year another 365, etc. There's 2700s, so by time first year is up, we might have billionaires giving away their wealth.
I could go on but you get gist of it.
Im killing Putin first. Hes the core problem, and the most evil of the richest billionaire club.
Gonna need 2 freebies mate.
Freebies? Those are mandatory and required. No shame if they are evil.
My death note would be the same as fortune 500
Iirc, you can write how the person behaves before death on the death note. You can easily write your own life fanfic and peaceful death there to ensure you don't get Raito'd or L'd in the meantime
Heh. L'd. Funni. Because in the show there's a guy named --
I think there was a pretty short limit on how far in the future you could write someone's death.
I think there was a pretty short limit on how far in the future you could write someone’s death.
23 days. You had 40 seconds to write a cause of death and 6:40 to write the details, and could even pre-write the details and add the name(s) afterward but the Death Note could not effect anything that occurred more than 23 days in the future, with the exception of dying by a disease that would take longer than that to progress and not writing a time (in which case they develop the disease but die when/how the disease would take them). The real problem is that you also can't use the Death Note to directly extend someone's life by writing that they die after they normally would - if you try they just die however they would have died if you hadn't used the note. You can however use the Death Note to kill someone who is a threat to another, indirectly saving their life.
Anything you make them do also has to be something they might plausibly do on their own, or it just hits them with a heart attack. You also can't make them kill someone else, though I think you might be able to fudge that by writing that person A will be shot by person B, and then that person B will shoot person A. I could be misremembering, but I think that trick was used at one point.
Also, if the circumstances described are impossible, it will default to a heart attack.
That's a very painful version of play stupid games, win stupid prices.
But like it would be so unbelievable that you can't just say, oh x died bc I wrote his name, that would be ludicrous. You need a decent sample size. I think I'd need 3 freebies. Before that i would not believe this notepad kills people.
