Nah, DBZ characters are way stronger than a Shinigami. Vegeta, Goku, Vegito, and Jiren have all shown immunity or very strong resistance to hax magical abilities. Hit's time-skip, Buu's candy ray, Babidi's mind control, etc. have all basically failed against them.
The wish-granting dragon can't even affect them if they don't want to be affected. What the heck is a human-level shinigami going to do?
Now, if you were to put Aizen against them, we'd have a fight.
Goku dies to a heart attack canonically lolNot a heart attack. A specific heart virus that's fan-theorized to have come from an alien world. Still, it's a natural cause, not a magical assault on his body.

Do Saiyans count as humans for purposes of the Death Note?
Would she have to write in "Son Goku" or "Kakarot" in order to kill him?
the deaths they grant aren't magical they're conducted by the literal king of deathUsing which method?
Death Notes/Shinigami aren't magical they're extra dimensional beings, and the deaths they grant aren't magical they're conducted by the literal king of deathThe closest equivalents would be the Kais and King Enma who rule the afterlife, and they've been shown to be unable to handle most of the stronger fighters.

By the time she could see his real name she would be dead.You act like Goku would actually speed blitz Misa instead of seeing what she would do with the book
She solos every non diety of dragonball damnThey arent immune. Misa could write a scenario where someone gets into a fight or accident something and it involves the destruction of the robot
Wait nevermind there are robots that should be immune to death note. Like the one that weighs 1000 tons and requires dbs ssj vegeta to outpower!

They arent immune. Misa could write a scenario where someone gets into a fight or accident something and it involves the destruction of the robotI mean, they're immune because they aren't alive. They're robots. androids 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20, 21, Mageta, and others are totally immune to the death note,; it would fail for the same reason she couodnt kill a car with a death note. Along with joke characters like Arale, and probably the angels.

X person gets in their car for their daily commute to work and has a fatal car crash on the way there - done
Hell, probably Buu, too; his physiology is so weird that he breaks way too many rules of the death note that would cause it to fail.

Actually I take it back. Misa, light, ryuk, they all fail miserably. It's right their in the rules:But the question is, would that word in Japanese be "ningen?"
"The HUMAN whose name is written in this Death Note will die."
But the question is, would that word in Japanese be "ningen?"We don't know, because the rules were canonically written in English, which light translated, and said "human."
Because in Dragon Ball Super, Zamasu was calling Saiyans 'ningen' as well, as a way of differentiating them from Gods. It basically meant 'mortals,' not specifically 'humans as a species.' I feel like it's only fair to apply the same logic to the Death Note, provided that's the same original word.
Still, I don't think it would work on Goku and friends because they're just way too strong-willed to get magicked to death. Or controlled by the Death Note's hypnotic situation.
What if they write 'Krillin dies by launching a Kamehameha at full power on the planet to die in the planet explosion' Goku and other non-humans who couldn't be directly killed by the Death Note rules dies in that scenario.Except Buu, who survives in space and no human has the capability of killing
If Misa were to write Goku's name in it then surely the issue is whether or not she'd have to write Goku or Kakarot, not whether Goku would shrug it off.

Except Buu, who survives in space and no human has the capability of killingAt this point Roshi probably could
What if they write 'Krillin dies by launching a Kamehameha at full power on the planet to die in the planet explosion' Goku and other non-humans who couldn't be directly killed by the Death Note rules dies in that scenario.That wouldn't exactly be soloing since she would be using Krillin. But it doesn't work anyway, since you can't have one death cause more.
If it could work on Buu, how would it even kill him? He doesn't have a heart, does he? Like, I'm not sure it would have the capability of killing him."Majin Buu is completely atomized in a battle with somebody stronger than himself."

"Majin Buu is completely atomized in a battle with somebody stronger than himself."I'm not sure that would even work. There's a min and max age on the death notes, I think 120 years. So Buu wouldn't even be bothered by it anyway.
The issue is that that is literally the ONLY condition that would work; buu breaks literally every other rule.

In which case Misa stops at roshi, Korin, and kami.I just thought about the wording of the rule that talks about including first and last names. If it's a hard rule that may also invalidate a crap ton more people. Goku accepts his given earth name which works for the book but he does still acknowledge his Saiyan name too which is just Kakarot.
You also probably gotta write it in the Saiyan language. It would take too long for Misa to imitate a different language before Goku can simply reach her and disarm her. If it's written in Japanese, it's fully possible the spelling isn't precise enough to spell out Goku's Saiyan full name. If she misspells Goku's real name 4 times, the Death Note is fucked
Also the JP does actually specify humans. It has different rules for other species, like if you write a Shinigami name, their life span actually increases instead. There are no rules for Saiyans or any other alien form. You can't even kill animals with that shit
You don't have to write in sayain language, Ryuk doesn't even write in a human language.It's not possible to intentionally kill other things with the Death Note. "If it influences and causes others that are not written in it to die, the victim's cause of death will be a heart attack." They talk about how the intention matters like more than once. If your actual goal is to kill others instead, it fizzles. I think Light nearly crosses that line multiple times
Also, while it does say it can only kill humans directly, non-humans may also die by several means.
non-humans may also die by several means.Not really.
Not really.
The rules prevent causing collateral deaths. If they did not, Light literally would have just won by going "Soichiro Yagami kills the detective known as L in a murder-suicide," and that would have been that.
Even if you were to argue "it would be fine because Saiyans aren't human and don't count as collateral deaths..." how would you even do that? None of the human characters are strong enough to even scratch the saiyans, and even among the humans there's a ton of them the note wouldn't affect.
It's a bad match up. Almost like these two universes REALLY weren't meant to fit together.
Well the rules also state that if you're gonna invent some impossible disease that's not within reachable distance of 6 min and 40 secondsThat's not true, that's just the default time. You can set a time of death longer than that, but it has to be within 23 days. But there's also a loophole if you give a specific disease as the cause of death. You won't be able to specify a time, but the disease will progress normally which means it might be months or years before it kills them.
