If I lose it all, slip and fall! Would you laugh at me? (~˘▾˘)~
This is japan so green ice cream is most likely either macha, melon, mint or lemon/lime.
Hey,, I can also recommend watching anime like: The Promised Neverland, Black Clover, Steel Achemist: Brotherhood and Death Parade. cool anime, I'll wait for your reaction.
@@laska24 Promised Neverland first season you mean, season 2 is garbage and was a total embarrassment for the people that green lit it.
not necessarily pistachio.. it might be green tea ice cream (since japan) and eating something with tons of sugar help you to think easier..
"Grab a potato chip... and eat it!"
A legendary scene.
The best scene in the whole show
better in the dub imo
Hahaha omg I almost forgot this scene. I laughed so hard when I first watched it! 😂
Man it's so iconic!
So much more dramatic in the dub 😂
I completely forgot about it till he went to get the chips and i was like "YOOOOOOOO"😂😂 for once its too bad he's watching in sub cuz the scene is definitely better in the dub, i hope we can get him to react to a video with all the different languages so he can see it lol
The reason they are all eating icecream is because L has an absolute _bonkers_ sweettooth and I guess he did not want anyone feel left out. Also, I'm pretty sure the flavour is probably Matcha (Green tea) an extremely popular flavour in Japan that has a similar green to pistacios
Pretty sure it is matcha, it is a normal flavor in Japan for various sweets, pretty good once you get used to the flavor, at first try you might not like it, just like beer and coffee but once/if you develop the likeness to the flavor it is good
also the brain is dependent on sugar as its main fuel, and L uses his brain nonstop
@@cabbage_cat Yeah, and we can see from the police officers' expressions that they've been working for long hours, so eating ice cream would help keep their brains working a little longer.
see, this is all very funny to me, because I always assumed that the ice cream was some sort of darker color, and the lighting was distorting what color it appeared to be. so to me, the green cast read as light off the monitor, and the actual color would be whatever it was beneath the shadowed part. so I had thought maybe chocolate or something... but matcha is probably way closer to the truth.
@@cabbage_cat Yeah, but that also means he has pretty much an addiction and _has_ to keep eating sugar. While sugar gives you energy and a boost for your brain, it is similr to coffe - you get a short window where you are really awake and it all comes easy and then you crash. Usually after the sugar high is over the mind feels more sluggish then before, because it was practically going on overdrive. I understand it for this late night thing, just give the guys some energy back for a last burts of activity, but it really looks as if L is just an addict at this point.
Yes, that's exactly was L meant with "their house seems so clean": by "clean" he means "too damn perfect"! L expected that at least anything suspicious could happen, even if it turns to be a false positive. But Light made his innocence proof of concept so damn well that L starts to get suspicious about him!
And the slip up of Kira targeting minor crimes IMMEDIATELY is a change in behavior he noticed.
Yeah, Light was in a hurry to prove his innocence, and killing those peaple was a mistake: kira do not kill someone who stalked once.
Seems like Light is so damn smart that the fact he does everything so perfectly is actually making him look guilty 🤔
@@GOTGames truee he's doing it wayy too perfect
The potato chip scene is probably one of the most famous ones in Death Note, maybe in anime in general.
I'll never forget it 🫡
Chief Yagami actually agreed to install these cameras to prove that his family is clear. And to reveal any suspicion about himself that he is not intentionally helping Kira. I would do it too, but only if I were the only one who watched records with personal stuff. Like bathroom records.
True 💯
About L suspicious face after the potato chip scene. It's not like he got some clue from Light but rather found the abscense of any clues worrying. According to L's deductions, Kira is as smart and ambitious as him. Obiously, such a person would not only reveal L's scheme, but also show off to L with something that proves their innocence. So, while Light indeed removed any formal suspicion, he kinda played into a profile of Kira that L developed for himself.
I know you're coming into all this anime stuff partly because it's been good content for your channel but I just wanna take a moment to say I appreciate how you are genuinely interested in the various songs and episodes you've watched. It would not bother me at all if you did not enjoy this medium and chose not to continue, but you seem to be totally invested in trying new things. Your authenticity is the reason I keep coming back, and I hope you are enjoying it as much as you seem to be.
I Love how Light realized that nobody is home, but says “I’m home” seconds later
Its japanese courtesy. Force of habit, probably
Everybody in Japan says "I'm home". Even if they don't know if someone is home, maybe can have someone.
It actually makes perfect sense to do this. One way to check if something is true is to test for the opposite. If you think no one is home, then by calling out you're checking to see if someone _is_ home, and if so, then it would disprove your theory that no one was home.
I remember seeing a video by, I think, Veritasium where he presents people with a sequence of numbers and asks them to guess other numbers that were also part of the sequence. People had a tendency to guess obvious numbers (e.g. if he had given 2, 4, 8, 16, they might guess 32, 64, 128), which confirmed in their mind that they had it figured out. But for the most part, they never checked numbers that didn't seem like they should be part of the sequence, and it turns out the sequence was something like "all the whole numbers". If they had tried even one number that was "off" from what they thought the sequence was, they would have easily discovered they were wrong. If you're given the sequence "2, 4, 8, 16," you might think, "well, 7 can't be part of that sequence," but if you get confirmation that it _is_ part of the sequence then you'll realize you'd made a fundamentally wrong assumption about the question.
All this to say, if your theory is that no one is home, then doing things that confirm no one is home don't really give you any new information. If you instead check to see if anyone _is_ home, the first positive result proves your original theory wrong. And no, it's not like people think this all through when they do it, it's just natural instinct. When we are someplace where we expect there to be people but it seems like we're alone, our natural response is to call out, to seek the other people we are worried aren't there. Wouldn't surprise me if this was some kind of primal monkey brain thing, where being alone makes you vulnerable, but being together makes you strong, so the natural response when you think you're alone is to seek out other people.
Anyway, thanks for listening to my TED talk.
That's a japanese thing, everybody does that.
Ah true. Maybe he forgot and reminded himself 🤔😂
L needs sugar to fuel his brain, that's why watari is always feeding him sweets. He is just being polite giving everyone an ice cream too.
I _do_ actually wonder how much Chief Yagami trusts Light or even _knows_ Light. He doesn't seem to be home very often and Light seems to have been a very private person, even before the death Note.
In my Opinion, Light is also a Psychopath. He clearly lacks empathy for other people and while he _sais_ that he is doing all of this for a better world, his actions speak differnt. He is doing this to become a God, to be revered, to make himself more then other humans.
Now, there is a bit of a debate in the fandom if Light was always this way or if the Death Note corruptet him in some way and we never really get an answer, since we barely see a glimpse of him before he finds the Death Note.
But assuming he was like this before (Which I believe) there is the question: Did his father notice things? As someone who has to have dealt with the odd Psychopath before, did he have his little misgivings about his son? I don't think he would voice them ever, even if he had, but you have to wonder...
spoiler
Light is more likely a sociopath as he can feel emotions like remorse, guilt and fear. The was overcome with guilt, remorse, fear and had to tell himself he was doing a good thing to keep himself from breaking down(this was shown much more in the manga). He feels love towards his family(more for his mom and dad) even though he sacrificed his father. He also is capable of compassion and empathy which is shown when his memory of the death note was gone. Psychopaths don't feel love(can substitute it with other things) or fear.
@@currentlyaliveanddead6733 Yeah exactly-
spoiler
-that whole reaction and his actions during the memory loss always made me deny the psychopath theory. Sociopath I can more than get behind though.
Light's father wouldn't have necessarily seen either a sociopath or a psychopath at work. As far as I'm aware they're rare and even as an officer he could go years without meeting one.
actually he would be a soziapath.
Pretty much the same, but he is cabable off pretending to be "normal". So he can blend in
Which makes him much more dangerous
Spoilers
I would say it's the Death Note corrupted him since we do see Light without the Death Note memory in later episodes, and he is a different person. He is capable to build a better world as a detective or officer, but man he just happen to find the Death Note, the worst way possible.
I think the point about the TV and Ryuk wondering why Light just throws it away after one day of use and pointing out that it's quite expensive (roughly £250 / €280 / $300), before we see it getting crushed by the truck, is all to emphasise how much Light is willing to sacrifice to clear himself of suspicion, I suppose. Of course if he got it back out of the trash, L would have seen it on camera. And Light probably thinks this should be enough to clear him too because he has an obvious alibi, but it just makes L more suspicious.
What I've always wondered is how the heck Light got the TV in there to begin with. It was a closed bag of crisps, so he must have put the TV in and somehow resealed it, and done it all outside the house so no one saw it on camera, but then he had to put the bag of crisps in the cupboard too. And assuming Light isn't the one who usually buys groceries and puts them away, wouldn't it have looked suspicious if he entered the house with 1 bag of crisps and put it with the others, only to get that same bag out that evening?
Maybe.. he hid the bag with the TV outside and then when his mum came home with the groceries he went outside to help bring the groceries in and grabbed the crisps out of a bush and hid it with the others and brought them into the house that way? But I have to assume there are cameras outside the house as well: if you're gonna go through the trouble of hiding hundreds of cameras in someone's house, you're gonna make sure they're pointing outwards to the garden/yard as well.
I never thought about that, he must have planned for a moment like this ages ago, to have the TV in a sealed bag ready to go
i always thought that he buys his own snacks so all the chips bags are his as a study routine so he would have had time to put it inside on his way home, what i dont quite get is why if he si suspition they dont investigate his money movement, i mean that big spend for a high schooler wouldnt be normal right?
@@kikofernandez9184 also a good point! Maybe if he uses cash money that he saved up, they wouldn't be able to trace that? But I guess these are details the show didn't really feel like going into 😅
@@kikofernandez9184 I mean, I bought an $800 laptop when I was in high school so it really isn't that strange
@@sydneypeck2488 But you are not under investigation for mass murder, i hope at least.
U got it right. Light made himself so innocent that it looks suspicious to L. Just binge it! The best is yet to come
Exactly! The guy is just too damn good it's suspicious 😂
The fact that Ryuk is so neutral makes him one of the least evil characters in the show, everyone who watches Death Note loves Ryuk
It's tricky, Light could have kept quiet during that broadcast in the living room, but that could have been suspicious too. He figured it was probably most "in-character" for Light the innocent genius student to comment on it and point out the flaw in the plan.
I think it's common knowledge that Light is smart, even his dad who's rarely home should know that; I think they literally said that Light has the best grades in his school, that can make you a local celebrity in Japan from what I have seen - even without having helped the police solve two cases before, like Light has 😅
Light doesn't just have the best grades in school, he got #1 on a national test or practice test.
It is interesting how much he has to balance trying to react normally and trying to be Kira
It's suspicious because he said that Kira might see right through it too. That means that he was thinking from Kira's perspective which was very strange especially with the tone of his voice in that scene. It was like he was speaking directly to L, "I can see right through your plan."
It's Very similar to Walter's reaction in breaking bad... a mastermind wants to be acknowledged. Wants to taunt the opponent. Light Couldn't help himself but to jab at L, Saying "this is so dumb Kira can see right through it"
The fact that kira just killed 2 people who were minor criminals the very first day he started checking these 2 families in itself is suspicious...
On the grand scale of things, not really. It's only suspicious from the perspective of the viewer. It *is* weird that they don't investigate the trash though.
@@charlesdemarest1171 Remember, Light said he kills criminals far in advance. It's really unusual that he'd IMMEDIATELY kill two guys who were just featured on the news. Especially since their crimes were more minor than he normally kills for. More so considering it happened on the first day they started monitoring them. The whole thing just reeks of Light giving himself an alibi and I think L can tell that. But obviously he saw Light wasn't doing anything, so it's not like he can prove it.
@@TheLordTash I took the advance killing out of the equation as it was irrelevant. The logic is still flawed, there's plenty of other explanations for killing minor offenders, an obvious one just to screw with L, like he did with the hidden message about apples and Shinigamis. There's the factor of how would he have even known he was being monitored, to make such a logical leap from it being anything more than coincidental. Again, there's way too many variables to make it make sense logically other than requiring the story to continue without ending right there.
@@charlesdemarest1171 The advancing killing is super relevant, because Kira started killing a criminal every hour so that L can't parse anything about his schedule from the times of death. And since he's always got them planned out a week in advance, that means Kira hasn't killed anyone immediately after their names were revealed in a long time. The fact that it randomly happened again RIGHT after they started monitoring the Yagami household (and a criminal outside of his usual MO at that) is a huge red flag.
@@TheLordTash it might seem like a red flag but on paper it's a clear evidence on Light's innocence. No matter how suspicious it might be you cant ignore the fact that he couldn't have done it. I'm guessing that since Light didnt know how long they are gonna monitor him for, he wanted to make sure to prove his innocence while they're watching him.
L has quite the sweet tooth, so he had ice-cream. It's rude not to offer to everyone there. Also, *probably* either green tea or mint flavor. After the series, probably on your own time, take a look at the Live Action movie. I think that was better than the Netflix adaptation, anyway.
Edit: Also, L noticed how perfect the alibi was. Took it as a sort of "I can kill even when you are looking right at me. Your move." sort of thing.
Personally I wouldn’t say L is inhuman. He’s just an unusual dude. I’m autistic and I vibe hard with him he’s just doing what’s comfy for him yknow
L puts his bare feet on the mats. That is very taboo in Japan :) They are impossible to clean.
@@Jordan-Ramses mats?
@Sydney Peck floor mats that they have in Japan. Dunno what they're made from but people have said they're really hard to clean.
The potato chip scene in the dub is very well known in the anime community. He's so serious about eating a potato chip. 😂
😂 need to check out the dub!
@@GOTGames You can obviously watch it however you like, but part of me wished you watched this show in English
@@ashhabimran239 The show goes from a 10/10 SUB to a 7/10 DUB... the English voice actors are so weak and incapable of reproducing the character's emotions... The Japanese is 10/10, the Italian DUB is 9/10... the English just shows the mediocrity in English VAs
@@ChiccaEnterprises Ok weeb
@@ashhabimran239 Just say you can't read lol
L says out loud the exact intentions of Kira as if it eliminates the family suspects. He views it as that is what I would want someone to think if I were in that position. That is why it is suspicious to L. It was too convenient based on their known information.
The legendary Potato Chip scene, beloved by all, for being so silly and serious at the same time. So well animated and so dramatic, all for a scene of him eating potato chips
L is eating icecream because his brain needs sugar to work.
And everyone else is offered icecream because Watari is well-mannered :)
Eating a Potato Chip has never been this Dramatic.
Change in Modus Operandi (M.O)
The very day Surveillance started in Two Homes, the Killer changed their M.O.
Almost as if the Killer knew he was being watched and needed a quick couple kills, no matter how insignificant the criminality. The point wasn’t justice, it was to create an alibi. It suggests the killer is in one of the two homes being watched.
In the first live action Death Note movie it ends with L introducing himself to Light while eating the exact same brand and flavour of potato chips. Saying that even though he can't prove it then he had figured out how Light could have still been conducting murders as Kira whilst under surveillance.
27:32 Yeah that's pretty much exactly what L said was suspicious. Just how quickly the Yagami houshold managed to clear their name and create an alibi (within a day.)
I love your analytical skills. Whenever you watch something you seem to catch something that I didn’t and it makes it more interesting to watch. Granted sometimes you are way off with your predictions but there are many times your theory’s are dead on. It’s what makes your reaction channel, for me personally, enjoyable, and I love to see another perspective.
Probably not worth an entire reaction video on its own, either watch it on your own time or slide it in some other video, but you should check out the "take a potato chip and eat it scene" in the dub. It goes so hard its absolutely hilarious.
Yes! This! It's a masterpiece
09:30 the way I see it is not like he is suspicius that his son or anyone in his family could be Kira, but becouse he believes that they are innocent, like how any normal parent would probably do, so he wants L to put the camaras to prove that they are innocent and clear all suspicions around them.
Ryuk: questions why light had the tv thrown away and visibly gets crush on screen
GOT: that tv is completely fine and a future plot point
😂😂😂😂
Too bad it isn't, it has no importance whatsoever. It's actually destroyed by that garbage truck. It's gone forever. No more mini tv evidence, bye bye!
👀
Yess potato chip! One of the most iconic scenes in anime history! 😂 I was waiting for your reaction to it! I'm so happy that you enjoy this serie!
I think what L said was what made it way too suspicious that Light & Yagami family basically proved their innocence so easily in the first day. Its like you said they seemed like they proved themselves innocent way too quickly. And since Light knows about the cameras the way he acted & what he said made things more suspicious also when L said about Light being smart I feel like wasn't complimenting him, but suspected him even more. I love the cat & mouse chase though at this point although I dislike Light for what he has been doing I kind of rooting for both cause I don't want the chase to end! Thanks for your reactions & thoughts love seeing it again with you because its such a different experience than when I watched it years ago.
The ice cream represents that they are busting their brains nonstop on this case with almost no rest, and they need some sugar for energy. You’ll notice similar other things L does to keep his brain firing on all cylinders.
its like hiding the bloodstains under the carpet and saying look at my clean carpet thats whats light is doing basically and him saying that is what brings up a red flag
My parents would spy on me in a heartbeat. Hell, they'll even try to set me up to BE kira, then ask for a reward for catching him.
Iruma-Kun is that you?
(That's a reference to a rather funny anime where the MCs parents sell him to a demon for cash. Maybe you'll relate. I hope not tho)
I've always liked vanilla. People say it's boring, but if you want chocolate instead, you can just add some syrup. Or strawberry jam. Or caramel topping and chopped nuts. It's good on its own and you can mix it with just about anything when you want something different.
Introducing one of the most legendary quotes and meme:
"I’ll take a potato chip AND EAT IT!” 😅🍟
In the last episode Light crossed a lot of limits killing Naomi Misora but the anime followed with this episode showing L crossing a lot of borders too, like installing cameras in the toilet and bathroom... Just to show that both of them are already going of their characters and beliefs to catch each other.
Also, in the second episode we think Kira is evil for killing an innocent person but isn't L also evil for killing the criminal? It doesn't matter if he was already sentenced to die that day, you can't use criminals as human experiments.
In fairness, it's likely that Lind L. Taylor was given an offer to take the spot. Likely, that his execution will be considered complete, even if nothing happened. That doesn't necessarily make it better, but at least understandable.
@@evilmandrake Yeah, I completely understand L's strategy and for the greater good (capturing probably the biggest serial killer ever) I think it's fair; but people use to ignore it and only call Kira evil when both are doing wrong things to hunt each other
@@Andrealves3002 True. More like Machiavellian Note, amirite?
Lind. L. Taylor was going to die anyways, and who knows if he would sufrer, the injection can fail and make the victim suffer before he/she dies and the gas chamber can be a torture, Light made it quick. L is not evil.
Rocky road is my favorite ice cream followed by chocolate malt ice cream and chocolate cookie crumble.
Rocky road is chocolate with marshmallows and crushed nuts. It's so good. I'm glad you watched this show's
sub. Back around 2007/08, I was watching the anime on Adult Swim and AS only shows dubs.
L's voice actor is the same as Usopp's and he's my favorite Japanese voice actor. He's done so many roles like
Ranma from Ranma 1/2 and InuYasha in the anime InuYasha.
Oh, there is nothing ryuk is _supposed_ to do, he can get involved all he wants, he just chooses not to most of the time and from what he said, most Shinigami would act similar, though it's hard to say if we can take his word for it. He seemed like a bit of a troublemaker and an outsider back in the Shinigami realm too, so maybe Ryuk is just gonna Ryuk. For him, being an outside observer is more interesting then playing a part. But when it comes to apples, all Morals go out the Window!!!!
Yeah, Ryuk has no obligation to obey Light. He could just eat apples and let Light deal with it. But he chooses to play along. Obviously the part about Apple addiction is nonsense. He lived most of his time in the Shinegami realm.
@@Jordan-Ramses I'm not entirely sure this is true.
About the addiction, well, yeah, he lived most of his time in the Shinigami realm, so he became addicted to apples recently, since coming to the human world. That can still be the case
And while he clearly cannot obey Light, I am not sure he is able to take real things in the world if they are not given to him. We never see ryuk take an Apple that Light has not provided for him, so I am wondering if Light _needs_ to be the one to give the apples to him or if he could jut take any old apple from enywhere.
This is just speculation mind, Ryuk could just as well be making it all up, that woud fall perfectly in line with is Character as well, so...
favorite ice cream that sounds fun: woodruff from the small ice cream parlor 5 minutes from where i live. some of the best ice cream you can find be he also really knows how to make woodruff ice cream something i think isn't even a thing outside of germany
07:54 - Luke's face is just pure gold. 😂😂
Man literally said 😏. 😂😂
EDIT:
Okay, 07:59 broke me. 😂😂
It was probably matcha ice cream
Behold, the origin of the second most famous Death Note meme!
"I'll take a potato chip... and eat it!"
It's probably Matcha Ice cream they are eating. I'd never had a pistachio ice cream until I came to the States and I bought it on accident thinking it was matcha and I was pretty disappointed lol
I would say do it... investigate... to prove that my son ISN'T... and to move on...
(No spoilers) this episode helps show it, but L is very much also evil, he just is on the “good” side of this conflict.
Him and Kira have been compared to each other a lot by both L and others, and they’re essentially playing a game with each other.
L has already used an inmate as a Guinea pig to bait Kira, endangered the entire police force, essentially used 12 FBI agents as pawns in a chess game and referred to them as such when they died instead of actual lives, and has consistently been doing very illegal stuff. He also is extremely manipulative, and used it to get the task force and make them trust him. Specifically, last episode he said “justice will prevail” when he’s made it apparent that he doesn’t care about justice, but solving interesting cases and winning. He said that to motivate the task force. This will become much more apparent later too.
I don't know if I'd call L "evil" necessarily... but he at least has a similar psychology to Light. I'd say they're similar in the sense that they aren't fully empathetic toward other people. that said... when it comes to considering the lives of others, there's heart caring, and there's head caring. heart caring is being able to properly grieve when someone dies... or at least being able to consider the grief you'd feel for someone important to you, and understand that that's an emotion which _can_ apply to someone you don't know. I think that both L and Kira are people who don't do a lot of heart caring.
however, head caring is still something. that's the sort of thing where you have a moral code in your mind, and you know when something breaks it on a logic level. you can at least understand logically that every life has as much value to the person living it, as yours has to yourself. and even when you can't heart care about a person, you can make the conscious decision to head care about them, and do so with just as much tenacity. I think L has _much_ greater instances of head caring than Light, and a better track record of figuring out how to do right by others, even if he feels like he isn't at liberty to do what's right sometimes over the course of the Kira case.
and yes, L does find the case fascinating. and his lack of heart care does make him seem cold when people die, and his response doesn't seem sad enough. but he's still pursuing the correction of the code of ethics that he understands and claims as his own... and you can also tell that he knows, on a logic level, that the actions he'll need to take in order to stop Kira are messed up. practically nobody would allow him to do this under normal circumstances. but there's also a reason why L considers it a loss when he is pushed to his options of last resort. just because he's willing to do these things when pressed, doesn't mean this was his first choice. and to be backed into such a corner where he has to try and convince normal, heart feeling people, to let him do something so against the morals of most... it does mean that he's had to cede ground to Kira. in the battle between L's code of ethics vs. Light's, Light has forced L to do things that he would rather not have done. but L will still only cede as little ground as possible with each incremental step toward each other that he and Light take. and it is hard to tell whether that's due to pride over the game, or a genuine wish to see one's own code of ethics return to functioning the way it normally would, or a mix of both.
Nah I wouldn't say L is evil, he looks more chaotic good to me
L isn't an angel, but I wouldn't call him evil. And I definitely wouldn't compare him to Light in that regard. Much better comparison (even though he's from different anime) morality-wise to L is Erwin from Attack on Titan.
@@kamuyking551 the key flaw in your argument is that you’re assuming L is attempting to do the right thing. I am saying he very much is not as that becomes apparent later. I’m not going to spoil things, but L makes multiple decisions and says several lines that basically prove that he is letting people die/suffer for the sake of the game and for him to finally checkmate Kira, who understands and respects this.
*Spoilers after this point*
1. Idk if this is said here or in one of the light novels, but he said 5-10% that it was one of them, and later something like 3% that it’s light because he thought saying those percents would get the best reactions from the police force rather than his true belief of over 90% of it being light.
2. He states that he doesn’t want Kira to die because if he does without convicting him, then L would not have won the game as it’s still ambiguous, especially if Kira has deaths going for another several months.
3. L makes it very clear later on that he thinks it’s light, but yet does not kill him when he has the chance to for weeks at a time because it wasn’t proven.
4. Light respected L and never really got angry. With near and mellow, he was visibly angry because they treated it as if Light was already Kira without actually catching him and we’re not playing a game, but just hunting light. Light did not respect them as he did L because they weren’t playing the game.
5. L was frustrated because he lost pieces he thought could be valuable, not because they actually died. L has 0 regard for life at all and I’ve never seen him show any. If you have an instance, then please share
@@Kratos263 Trust me the more you watch and the deeper you analyze the worse L looks. So many lines directly compare the 2, L puts his headspace inside Kira’s so perfectly multiple times, and he does many things that only satisfy his desire to win over the actual people’s benefit
08:10 - 08:16 - Light is able to kill by words without using the Death Note. 😂
10:12 I'm the father of a girl, and I would also accept that, not because I have a suspicion of the family itself, but to see that everything is right and move on, I believe that's what he felt.
Yeah I think there's two primary reasons, each of which would be enough on its own.
One is, as I believe is what you were saying, is that although he doesn't suspect them now, he also knows he doesn't want to suspect them in the future. It's his family after all, you can't have that kind of thing itching the back of your mind. And so needs that peace of mind of proving it to himself.
The other side that I think is more obvious to most and tends to overshadow the also meaningful reason previously stated, is simply that he needs them cleared of suspicion from Ls perspective and he needs to show resolve in the case as apposed to if he was against it and merely raised suspicion of everyone including himself.
Put those two together and L practically forced him to go along with it.
The green icecream is most likely Matcha/Green Tea flavor which is as common as Vanilla in Japan.
You nailed it right on the money. Light is trying too hard to look like a normal innocent high schooler that he can't help but look suspicious. It's like when the cartoon character does the exaggerated whistle to try to look natural. His performance is stiff enough that a genius like L can't help but notice that something is off, even though he has no proof to substantiate his gut feeling yet.
The ice cream is definitely matcha ice cream 😂 it's one of themost popular ice cream tastes in Japan 😅
pistacchio ice cream is the BEST DUDE!
Pistachio is my favorite, man!
4:22 Based and Mint Pilled.
Mint Choccy chip, Choc chip cookiedough and Swirl are the 3 superior flavours to which all Ice Cream knees must bow.
For some reason I want this dude to listen to “case closed “ detective conan OST
The green ice cream is Japanese matcha flavor. The combination of bitterness and sweetness is delicious.
I don't know why I find the scene with the ice cream so funny. Watari just starts giving everyone ice cream during the serious break down of footage, and made sure to give the chief 3 scoops instead of 2.
Yes, L is not normal, I forgot what they're called, but by how apathetic L is towards other and how he act already shown that.
You should watch the movie too, it have different ending than the anime
Ryuk is not "supposed to be" a bystander btw, he just chooses to be. I don't think there's a rule about shinigamis having to remain neutral, the only rule like that is that they're not allowed to tell a human another human's name but I think that's it, other than that they're allowed to help or be in someone's side. Ryuk just wants to have fun so he'll occasionally help Light with things if they benefit him too or make things more interesting overall. But he's genuinely just doing it for that, not for Light.
It's like the old, tropy saying, "It's quiet; _too_ quiet." Light made himself look innocent; _too_ innocent. It's like when a criminal wipes down their crime scene to remove their finger prints, but a room with absolutely _no_ fingerprints just confirms that a it got wiped down because you'd expect a room to have normal-use fingerprints in it. If you _really_ want to cover your tracks, don't just wipe away the fingerprints, leave behind decoy prints. Light should have waited to do his potato chip stunt, instead of doing it right from day 1. He understood that back when he got Penber's bame on the bus, that it'd be suspicious to kill him immediately after that, so he let it simmer a while first. When he saw that he was being watched by cameras, he should have let it simmer a couple of days, then gone out to buy the magazine, wait a few more days, then do the potato chip TV thing, and that would have been an order of magnitude more convincing. But he also felt the time crunch because he needed to be able to get back to writing names so he needed to deal with the situation sooner rather than later.
VIDEO IDEA! Bean Boozled reaction prediction challenge. While watching an episode, try and predict what will happen in the next scene and if you're wrong you have to eat a bean boozled jelly bean.
It's interesting, but pulling off that chips move would be impossible. The angle to see the screen and the light coming from it.
I highly recommend that potato chip scene in english dub. Both sub and dub is phenomenal and English voice actor made it way more dramatic, lol.
Anyway my favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip as well.
Oh boy - calling pistaccio ice cream average is a very hot take xD
Price of small LCD TV discarded by Light ¥39,800 ≒ £246.64 (Exchange rate on March 20, 2023)
I just realized that Light and Naomi meeting at the police HQ is never brought up. Even if her body is never found, with how closely L tracks everything even slighty related to the case this shouldn't have been ingored.
Well picked up clues~ As soon as minor criminals were reported, they died in an obvious Kira fashion death, even though Kira can freely control time of death... that in itself is suspicious enough, causing L to state how the Yagami Household is too clean despite that being the first day of surveillance. Why would Kira so quickly dispatch of minor criminals this way?
Also while it may be true you can use the Death Note on yourself, I think you can also shorten your lifespan just by using it on others, for example by getting caught and sentenced to death perhaps.
Ayy mint chocolate chip is also my favorite ice cream, always my #1
It's most probably Matcha ice cream, a very common Japanese flavor
17:54 HOW DID HE KNOW ABOUT THE SECRET ONES???
It was probably green tea ice cream
Idk, I think if someone known as the greatest detective in the world suspected my son about 5 percent, I would want to clear his name and have him do the investigation.
L eats sweets a lot. So now they're all into it too :))
Kira was asking if any pre dated death before the target's actual death is okay to be written. Ryuk answered in a way that since Shinigami's do not write a persons death in advance that then there should not be an issue and the deaths will continue as Kira has been doing it for a while now.
When L says a percent, he means the opposite, so a 5%-10% chance is a 90%-95% chance
Cookies and Cream is my favorite Ice cream. I know it has nothing to do with the topic of Death note but you brought it up! XD
L honestly just has the biggest sweet tooth. To the point I’m like 90% certain he’s just on a constant sugar high
The previous react had audio lag I don't know if you noticed it in comments.
0:21 yeah this is literally "Praying on ur downfall 🙏" The Anime
4:15 I assumed it was matcha ice cream personally
your right at the last part, L say the same thing
I always imagine Lights mom and sister overhearing Light talking in his room.
Makes sense why they didn’t, though. Still, that would be hilarious.
You should react to Great Teacher Onizuka openings. Especially the first one. Its so great!
Wish this was watched in the dub. This show is very watchable in English, especially for the iconic scenes.
the suspicious thing is, minor crime had been killed that day and in the day 1 yagami family look so innocent..
Eating potato chips and taking notes - the action series!
Vanilla or Mint Chocolate Chip are my favorites. I have both in my fridge currently, and I couldn't pick between them if Light forced me too 😆
Oh the TV, we can't guess what happens in this show either, you're on to 2 of the best shows, AOT and now this.
man for some reason I misread the title as L is inside light 😂
Oh, it's the Potato Chip scene! :D
My favorite flavour of ice cream is Dulce de Leche, but I doubt you can get an authentic one anywhere aside from Argentina and maybe Uruguay.
The thing about this episode is, because Light killed 2 people who did minor crimes the moment they were broadcast on the news without having any visible ability to have known about them... but doing this as these two houses are under extreme surveillance, makes it look like Kira knows at least one of these houses is being so tightly watched and wants to prove that it can't be anyone there, or at least that no amount of surveillance will discover him. It makes the households look guilty in their innocence. It would have been less suspicious if Light simply allowed the month of scheduled heart attack murders to continue as normal.
If I were in Light's shoes, in keeping with his plan to appear innocent while getting closer to L, what I would have done is this. First of all, I would not have the dirty magazines in my room to appear like a normal teenager. Clearly, as Light, I am not a normal teenager. My room does not have security measures in place to hide the fact that I look at pictures of girls. Instead, I'd go along the same line he did when he instantly spoke against the 1,500 investigators announcement. I'd have set in place that I have my room secure as it was because I am conducting my own investigation against Kira, and don't want anyone to know about it. L would witness me going into my room and writing down some key info that seems possible for me to figure out, and he might read some of the other details I have written down and discover that I have realized a few things that he thought only he could figure out. I'd probably increase his suspicion of me a little bit, as it is L, but not as much as appearing too innocent. On top of that, he might want to bring me on board to his task force as he'd see that I was of value as an investigator, thus getting me closer to him. I certainly would not kill those two minor criminals as any deviation in Kira's behavior when L takes action is instantly seen as suspicious and allowing criminals to die as planned would raise no alarms. It wouldn't throw the 'I couldn't have known about those two' wrench in the system, but it also wouldn't bring on the 'he must know he's being watched' idea, either. It has the effect of surveillance being pointless all the same.
Maybe I am missing something there, but then again, if I was Kira, I'd never have killed Lind L. Taylor, either, and would have avoided that whole mess to begin with. I wouldn't have been so arrogant to think that nobody would be able to figure me out, and I wouldn't deviate from killing known criminals. Of course, as you no doubt know from having seen the entire thing by now, its so much worse than that. His ultimate goal is honestly going further than I would ever go, even if I chose to do what he's doing.
THE MOST INTENSE POTATO CHIP EATING SCENE IN TELEVISION HISTORY EVER!!!!
Salmiakki ice cream is the best ice cream.
yes, my favorite icecream is pistache kkkk
close to home there is a place that sells 5 liters for 9 euros
Just for curiosity 39.800 YEN is around 400 dollars
Mint chocolate chip.. my favorite as well. can't go wrong there.
Epic chip eating!
Yeah sure Light is defini8tely the bad guy, but you gotta commend how smart he is. This chess game has only just begun!
4:13 mines rasberry ripple or strawberry, but yes pistachio isn't as good as media makes it out to be
I did come out liking L more, but as far as rooting for someone goes, I felt like Ryuk, who was just watching stuff happen and was curious as to how things would turn out. I guess the only thing that would tip the scale would be that L is trying to stop one person from trying to become god, and that’s kind of better than the guy killing people left and right to become god, right xD
