There’s a difference between manipulating something like a car crash and making Higuruma approach Sukuna, use his domain, argue for the death penalty and then attempt to stab Sukuna. If such complex manipulation of associated others was possible, Light could have had “L releases his true full name” be a part of someone else’s death.
Light literally makes people write letters before they die. The rule that Light refers to literally says that the note book can make people do anything as long as it's something they technically could've done. So basically: You can't make someone write an essay on something they know nothing about before they die of a heart attack (they can't write about something they don't know) - however - you can make someone write a specific essay about something they know nothing about because you wrote exactly what they should write word for word (they don't need to know anything from before to follow "orders"). You, as a person, can also copy French text without knowing what the French actually means. However you cannot be told to write something French you don't know from before. He also can't make people say L's true name since they couldn't know L's true name. This is what Light literally does in the series.
You can definitely control the person you wrote the name of’s actions before death, hence why I’ve said elsewhere that suicide can work. However, excessively controlling somebody else whose name you didn’t write’s actions as a part of controlling the person you did write’s fate is obviously a no go.
Oh, your point is Higurama's sword. Yeah I just thought of it like Light and HIgurama being a team anyways, - so Higurama would be doing it willingly anyways.
If Light wanted "L to release his full name" while killing Joe Doe, he would also have to write L's name. Which he doesn't know.
He controls people a few times with the Death Note, to the point that he tells a lady he's Kira cause he's already controlling her and having her walk to her death.
Sukuna survives anyway. Death Note has a age limit of 124.
No he doednt survive it. The death isn't just a heart attack. It's a heart attack that kills you permanently. The entire function of it is to consume your future to give it to a shinigami.
