Question for you guys. Now, among the very first rules for using the Death Note are these:

If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds of writing the subject's name, it will happen.

If the cause of death is not specified, the subject will simply die of a heart attack.

After writing the cause of death, the details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.


But the person, whoever it is, dies in 40 seconds, so how does the bolded rule work? Time travel?

It means if you just write a name, the person will die in 40 seconds from a heart attack. But if you write a cause of death before 40 seconds, you will be given 6mins:40secs to write an entire elaborate plan to kill someone.

So if I write....

George Walker Bush. (he would die in 40 seconds)

But if I write....

George Walker Bush. Choked to death. (I would have 6:40 to write the specific details of the cause of death)
Choked on a bagel on November 30th, 2006 at 7:03AM
(then he should die exactly two weeks from today (Mountain Time)

That's how the Death Note works.

after you write the cause of death you have 6mins and 40secs to write how they die/when they die =/ if u don't write cause of death they will die in 40 seconds, so if you did write the cause and no detail specifying time of death they would die in 6mins 40seconds instead of the 40seconds where as you just wrote their name.

OK... Lemme make this thread serious.

I have just gotten through with Volume #8. It seems clear to me (and please PM me if I'm wrong, and I think everybody would agree with me)

that ever since Misa has been given the eyes of her death god, Light seem to give her attention, while also giving her the cold shoulder when it's time to get serious.


To Be Continued...

OK. I guess it didn't take long...

here's the rub:

Spoiler wrote:at the end of Voulume #8, Light discovers that someone has another notebook and that person had probably saw Misa as well. During the last lines, Light asks himself should he kill Misa right now. Then he had second thoughts and lets her live, but that rasies a new set of questions.


Now, here is a real bitter-tasting situation he has on his hands.

NOTICE: on my last post, I made a typo on "seem" when it shoud be "seems". please forgive my fast typing.

davis: most people here are here to follow the anime, manga discussion does not seem to be necessary. most people here have either read all the manga, and are now following the series, or are just following the anime.

it seems things will get confusing if people don't know whether the spoilers are from anime or manga, or WHERE in the manga, etc.... -_-
