    The rule at the halfway point says that you can write a name after writing the cause of death. This happens before when Light writes "dies after sending everyone the names of the FBI agents" and Raye Penber fills in his superior's name and unknowingly makes that happen. The page is also in a cover so Raye never touched the notebook or saw the details.

    I can't tell you how happy I am that you picked up on Misa's natural lifespan still probably being extremely long despite doing the Shinigami eye deal. I've thought that for years and I've never seen someone else pick up on it. These reactions are always very insightful and fun, the commentary never feels vapid.

    In this context, "even if you do not possess the note" means "even if you are not the owner of the note." You still have to physically write the name in the space in front of the cause, it's just saying you don't have to be the actual owner (owner being the person the Shinigami has to follow around). So the owner could write the cause of death and then someone else could insert the name and it still works, despite the fact that two different people wrote two different parts.

    Interesting thing is that if Light would have not tell L about shinigami earlier, in his encrypted notes, then Misa's plan would have worked - everyone would think that "eyes" and "shinigami" are some kind of cipher, some kind of random code. But since two independent Kiras talked about shinigami, it became obvious that this code is not random. So it wasn't so stupid of Misa to talk about shinigami in public. I would even actually blame Light - unlike Misa, he did not have a serious reason to tell anything about shinigamis to L. He did that to just scratch his own ego. So yeah, this mistake is on Light's ego again, in the end.

    Personal theory: Shinigamis are previous death note users who ended up in shinigami realm (neither hell nor heaven) it's their form of punishment that they have to kill for eternity BUT when they saves a human out of love, they get freed from this punishment. Meaning Shinigami dying is freedom from that nothingness.

    Speaking of DN rules: anime adaptation covers *some* of them in the scene break splash screens, but in the original there were dozens upon dozens (definitely over 50) of rules that Ryuk simply didn't bother to write down (and some of them even he didn't know existed). Like, for example, babies younger than one year of age are fully immune to effects of all DNs and lose that immunity on their first birthday. Or the fact that writing down a person's name while deliberately misspelling his name five times in the note makes that person permanently immune to that specific note (but not the other ones). Most of them are extremely specific and just serve as flavor text, but if all of them were properly written in, we would've had a very different show with plot going in a very different direction. I think there was a wiki that had all of them recorded in one place, but it might be a bit too spoilery to read them before at least reaching last quarter of the story.

    Fun Fact: There is a Death Note novel about the BB Murder Case which was mentioned earlier in the show by L and Naomi. One of the characters in this novel was born with Shinigami Eyes. Some people connect L's initial reaction when Misa first metioned "the eyes" ( 9:33 ) with L's knowledge about the BB murder cases and said person. While it is stated that, back then, L didn't figure out that said person had the "Eyes", he could've definitely connected and realized it the moment Misa mentioned them

    11:51 Somebody still needs to write the victim's name down. It just doesn't need to be the same person who wrote the cause of death and details surrounding it while leaving the name blank. That's exactly how Light made Raye Penber kill his own boss, while also making said boss email all his employees to reveal their names and faces to each other. Light wrote the details, then Raye wrote the name, then the boss did exactly as Light dictated.

    when the rule talks i think it means you don't have to be the 'owner' of the notebook to use it. like how light wrote the details of the death then let raye penber write the names on a sheet from the notebook. not that you can psychically do it. but that if you write the name while picturing the face in a blank in front of the details the details still work even if you didn't write the details or even know of them.

    When I watched the show, all those years ago, I somehow completely missed the part about Misa getting Gelous's extra life. I wonder if that was a dubism or ifnI just missed it, but it does make sense since the whole point was that her "natural" lifespan was over, so I guess everything that came after had to come from somewhere. And you're right, that definitely seems to make the eye-deal less of a sacrifice

  • @Dachimotsu

    The rules that were read after L freaked out. The intermission. This is how Ray penbur died. If you rememebr, L had him write the name of his boss first. The boss was scheduled to send the name of all fbi agents in japan. Which he did. Then ray wrote the names of all the agents in the empty spots. Killing all of them. Ray not only killed his boss but all of the FBI agents.
    So thats what i think the intermission was trying to tell you.

  • @SiMeGamer
    @SiMeGamer 6 днів тому +4

    Light had Ray Penber use that method you've read. He wrote the cause of death for all the FBI agents as well as for the head of the FBI team to send the files before dying which gave Ray all the names and faces of his team which let him kill them.
    Light technically only kill Ray in the whole FBI fiasco and Ray killed the rest using that weird rule. I always wondered how light figured that it would work - my guess is that it was an assumption or that Ryuk said others can use it despite not being the owners. This is definitely a light flaw imo in terms of the writing but it's no big deal. It's more of light contrivance (no pun intended) and not a plot hole.

    • @Quonton11
      @Quonton11 6 днів тому +3

      If I recall correctly, in that episode Light tells Ryuk he was experimenting with criminals and found out that you can write the name at a later time and Ryuk says even he wasn’t aware of that. Also, in many of the death note rule panels, it does state a person who is not an owner can write names within the notebook

    • @SiMeGamer
      @SiMeGamer 6 днів тому +2

      @Quonton11 most of the rules do not appear in the actual death note which is why I'm not really seeing a proper explanation. I've watched the show countless times (probably my 3rd favorite anime) and I've read the manga twice as well as the companion book. The only rules written are the ones Light reads in the first episode.
      SPOILER FOR FUTURE EPISODES:
      .
      .
      .
      When the police gets their hands on the death note, they see the same rules, except with the added extra rule. And those types of explanations aren't there. I will later go search it up and update this comment with all the rules provided in Ryuk's death note. I'm fairly certain a super majority of the rules are not given to the characters and are simply the notes in the ad breaks and compiled in the companion book (volume 13).

  • @jpcsdutra
    @jpcsdutra 5 днів тому +1

    Fun reaction as usual.
    I don't believe that's quite what the mid-episode screen is saying. What it is saying is that anything written in the notebook has an "expiration date". You have up to 19 days to write a name *to* a cause of death in order to make it happen (if it doesn't already have a date that has already passed), if you write a name on the 20th day or beyond, nothing will happen.
    Rules are still the same. You still need to write their real name in any piece attached or detached from the notebook. Which means you can have just the blank space after the cause of death on hand, and writting just the name then will have the full cause.
    I think what it is stabilishing is the pages still have some kind of agency even after shredded, and the only thing that can make them stop from working as intended is the actual expiration date of what is written; or a subsequent rule (like misspelling the name or having an impossible death described).
    At least that is as far as I remember from the story, I haven't read or watched source in over a decade, I could be wrong, but I don't think there are any telekinectic kills in this.
    And the observation about Misa is true. She *did* have an undisclosed amount of years well above human expectations. *However* she took the pact for the eyes *before* she knew she did, which still makes her pretty cuckoo crazy if you ask me.
    I don't know if listing the rules of the Death Note counts as a spoiler, and I'm not sure that the show will go super into it later, but there's one specific rule about someone stealing/killing the owner of a Death Note, and that is more likely the reason why Misa gets the Death Note rather than it being a gift so to say.

      Everyone bashes Misa for doing the exact same as Light with more justifiable means to do so but will never credit her because she's a woman.

    The note in the middle of the episode basically means you can write the situation for the death of a person and fill in the name later on. Based on what you read you'd have 90 days to fill in the blank? Even if you are not the owner of the deathbook, it kills them if you write it while thinking of their face (which is how Ray Penber unadvertedly killed all his colleages in the train).
    The bit of Shinigami lifespan being added to the person, thats wild. Misa could very well live for 1k years for all we know so far LOL damn. So who cares about half of that for the eyes. Ty for the reaction
