how much would you bid for the death note

[Deleted]

It's a stupid premise, the power to kill anyone you want but at the cost of damning yourself, who ever thinks this is a good idea to use, is a short sighted fool.

No you don't damn you if you bank on not going to heaven you can escape hell by using it.

[zenkai]

No you don't damn you if you bank on not going to heaven you can escape hell by using it.

I guess it makes sense that the people who think its ok for them to have the power to kill anyone they want would be the type of person who is on their way to hell anyway.


Side Thought...
Am I correct to assume everyone who would use the death note is not against capital punishment?

What's a death note exactly

It's a notebook from an anime, where when you write an individuals name in it they die. Here is a much better description.

Oh and I don't think I need one if I have 100 Billion I'm fairly sure I can afford to have anyone I need killed without it.

You aren't damned you can neither go to heaven nor hell.

Not really as some people would use it very limited to kill people who are currently a threat to others or themself unlike your prisoners.

You can make the self defense imediate threat argument to differentiate it.

[MrPaladinGuy]

Nothing, because someone would know I have it.

[McCrazy]

If someone buys it, can I borrow it?

[sharpy]

dam the fact that the death note kills people its really dark but the fantasy its the power you have not in the killing

I disagree with you I think it's about both.

It was pointed out in the last thread that the whole "doomed to neither heaven nor hell" was a lie that was made up by Ryuk, and either way there was neither, even for those who didn't use the Death note.

[Aeula]

Maximum bid, a few convenient deaths can change the world, why pass up that opportunity?

[Acelius]

Who would be stupid enough to bid in this auction if it was public?
It loses all the value when the government can just seize it from you or people can blackmail you to their benefits.

But can't you just quickly write down the name of every government agent coming to get it?

OT: I'd probably spend those 100 billion on something else. Like a big fucking castle and a 100 super cars.

[Jotaux]

I can think of way better things to do with $100 billion, like the future generations of my family would be set for life.

Sniper bullet to the head or rocket strike....

The concept of Death Note seemed silly, and the actual series was short, but I found it to be one of the best animes of all time. Just two geniuses brain battling it out with overly complicated plans.

$0

I'm not inclined to give up my afterlife to become a serial killer.

There is no afterlife in the Death Note universe.

There is no cost to using the Death Note. You are not damned. There is no Heaven or Hell in the Death Note universe.

There is no Hell in the Death Note universe.

My understanding is that it is a little controversial, especially in the anime vs the manga.

[McCulloch]

99 billion. 1 billion is more than enough for me.

The anime, as far as I recall, it not specific on what happens. The reason people question it is because of the DVD-only first-half catch-up episode that has a new Shinigami that has certain elements that are reminiscent of Light. The manga, however, is very explicit -- all humans go to Mu (nothingness) when they die.

Both anime and manga have the "can go neither to heaven nor hell" line, but the manga has a flackback at the end where we see what happens immediately after that line, which has Ryuk confirming the destination of all human souls.

Right. In that case my statement just reverts to "I'm not a mass murderer."

I certainly get the allure of that kind of "life-or-death" power, but frankly I just wouldn't be able to accept the reality of what I'm doing to people and their families.
