Hello? Hello, can you all hear me? This is now a live broadcast. We are assembling, as you may call it, a suicide squad to solve the untraceable murders of the serial killer now known as Kira. It is your job to vet these candidates as a group, and determine if these individuals (or groups of individuals) could truly catch Kira, and bring an end to his reign of terror.
...Out of keyfabe, this is a Death Note fanblog where literally all I do is post a random character and ask you all to sort them into one of four categories:
- Could catch Kira, would survive: This character has not only managed to determine Kira's identity, but also lived to tell the tale! This COULD imply arrest, but it's just as likely that Kira dies mysteriously as well.
- Could not catch Kira, would survive: This character did not determine Kira's identity, but they survived regardless! Since this involves them being on the case actively, this could imply that Kira was not arrested and Kira died without any payoff... perhaps.
- Could catch Kira, would not survive: This character was thorough in their investigation and managed to determine Kira's identity! Unfortunately, Kira cottoned on, and decided they were too much of a liability... Or perhaps they simply wrote their own name in the Death Note, to prove a point to a new investigator. Not all things are so simple, it seems...
- Could not catch Kira, would not survive: Poor, guileless investigator... Kira remained out of their grasp, and they died for their trouble. People who sort their favorites into this group certainly are pragmatic, eh? Still, a sacrifice could galvanize an investigation...
The game is afoot, of course! There's not quite a prize for being in any of these groups, but it is a fun thought exercise, is it not? Feel free to reblog any and all posts, of course. Now, let's see who can catch Kira and live to tell the tale, eh? And let's see for whom Kira remains out of their grasp...
Edit: Due to a wide amount of duplicate requests (and a rather genius suggestion from @archerestarcher), there is now a Google Document archiving each and every poll on the blog! This list will be updated daily, so if a recent poll or results post is not reflected as such on the blog, it will happen soon regardless! Access the spreadsheet below!
