Wouldn't share money would be the worse idea ever considering actual economics? Like don't that just make everything more expensive and the country inhabitable by literally everyone else?
@@yurimpassI guess that depends on the number of people who got rich, Japans population is over 100m and the amount of new millionaires seems to only be in the six figures, so I don’t know how severe inflation would get but the story heavily implies that it’s all good
Don’t forget that Misa may have halved her life twice, but since Wrem & Jealous killed themselves for her, she inherited their lifespans. So, shy of execution or a death note being used on her, she’ll live much longer than any normal human
Maybe. We can't know how many years the Shinigami had stockpiled. To us, it would make sense to store many years, but we also know the Shinigami are generally lazy, bored, and would have no reason to worry much about running out of time. Rem and Jealous could have had hundreds of years or less than a decade between them, we can't know - only speculate.
man, i read the death note manga back when i had to wait for chapters to come out, never watched the anime (never felt the need to, the snips ive seen seemed faithful enough to the manga), but i legit dont remember anything about misa getting the shinigami to fall in love with her. i dont remember her gaining extra life spans. I remember light dying, and me feeling absolutely terrible for her because she halved her life twice for his ass and got absolutely nothing out of it
@@xiphosmaniacWhen her backstory was being told by Rem she was cornered in an alley about to be didled and merced and Jealous was watching and in love with her (he almost always was watching just her). The only way that he could save her, going to human realm (if he even could) would have taken too long. So as a result Jealous uses his eyes to merc the guy about to nerc Misa, which activated a rule of the book/Shinigami being that if a Shinigami mercs to protect someone they love they will in turn fail to alive. It also transfers their remaining years to the one protected. When Rem has her subscription to life expire it is to protect Misa as well. L has her captured and cornered and Light won't/can't do anything to save her and knew Rem would merc L to save Misa. She then does the deed to L to save her losing her life as a result and yet again funneling her remaining years into Misa. So simple math, let's assume Misa's subscription date for life expiration was that night in the alley, she have 0 years left. Jealous saves her and gives her 100 years. She then takes the deal, dropping her to 50 years. She then transfers ownership and regains it and takes the eyes back and halves again to 25 years. Rem then goes byebye giving her 100 years bringing her total to 125. That's all assuming both Shinigami only had 100 years stored. Each time they eat a soul they get the remainder of their time. Unless the alley dude, L, and Qatari were all destined to punch their card that way (that's impossible) she AT MINIMUM gained gained 40(L)+40(Alley)+20(Watari) giving 100 years, assuming both Shinigami were going to croak that day. Misa had the MOST plot armor in the entire series and throws a crybaby whiny baby party when Light dies and cancels her subscription herself on a cliff. Worst case she was going to live to 130, best case she had THOUSANDS of years to live. God Misa is a horrible character. Lol
Lights dad thinking he was innocent before he died killed me inside lmao. Like it was happy for him but so sad and tragic that Kira really was light given how noble soichiro was
The scene is so good. If you remember they play this really tragic music that sets the tone of what someone "should" be feeling in the moment which clashes heavily with Light's inner monolog trying to figure out a way to play the scene to get his dad to get rid of Mello and not even being sad about his dad being on his deathbed, and worse, dooning his father to an afterlife in purgatory because he used the notebook. (Which, from clues in the tailend of the series leads me to believe he was also changed into a shinigami)
Soichiro did not use the note book in the end. Also in the manga, just before Light dies, a flashback plays to that convo about notebook users not going to heaven or hell. That scene was expanded and basically Light called Ruyk out on his bs claiming that it just means heaven or hell does not exist at all. Ryuk, impressed by Light's sharpness, confirms it, claiming that all humans end up in the same place after death no matter what. So using notebook doesn't exclude you from the fate shared by others in death.
The fact that Light didn't hesitate on the idea that his dad's life span would be cut in half after he made the deal for the shinigami eyes was such a giveaway that he was Kira
A-Kira was the goat. He used the Deathnote so well that he beat the game. So much so that the Shinigami king had to change the rules just so A-kira wouldnt win. Coward
That happeneds in casinos sometimes. My dad used to get comps for free meals at a casino from just sitting at the poker table. We ate pretty well when that happened. They had to change the rule cuz it was being exploited.
Don’t mean to sound like a hater but what is this “Used the Death Note so well the Shinigami King had to change the rules” like respectfully what? He ain’t even use it. All he basically did was sell it. The smartest thing he did was basically have the knowledge to sell it via also somewhat helping the Japanese economy by essentially giving random citizens of Japan 1 Mill and using Ryuk to promote it. If feel like when fans say he used the Death Note so well they mean he never got caught with it in his possession and nor was Near capable of every figuring out who had it. Which while is impressive it’s not like Near could ever find him in the first place, he literally did not use the book and never left it on him. They was know one he could suspect but simply had to take the L (pun not intended) Also while what the Shinigami King did was a dick move I would call him a coward. Coward implies a fear of something. Don’t believe the Shinigami King feared him as much as he was simply annoyed of the situation with essentially everyone getting knowledge of the Death Note in the world and everyone trying to bid for it probably rubbed him the wrong way maybe even thinking to himself “Use it or give it up what is this bullshxt” Anyways my 2 cents
@@zolod.uchiha5102to counter a bit (respectfully), he used the death note for personal gain and his use causes the shinigami king to create a brand new rule. The death note was supposed to cause humans misfortune and misery, therefore finding a use that makes your life much better would be using the death note well. Arguably better than any previous user.
I think what annoyed me about A-Kira was that he got done so dirty. When you initially receive the Death Note, you are able to read and accept all the rules *before* you start using it. You're informed about how everything works, so it's an equitable arrangement. Since we are already in Spoiler territory due to the video: If you read the Special, just as Ryuk is about to hand the Book to Trump, he does inform Trump about it, who promptly rejects it, but plans to never tell a soul that he doesn't actually have it (still giving him a lot of power because people would assume the US has the notebook) but Minoru is left entirely in the dark and then dies without ever having a chance to reject the payment. By changing the rules after the Sale the Shinigami King broke part of the Core of what makes the Death Note so appealing imho
Yeah deity really should not be fuqin getting played and changing rules around just for one human. He should have waited until after the deed was done. Extremely human of him though, probably the most human thing he's ever done.
There is literally a rule in the note that says that a shinigami has no obligation to explain all the rules. In my opinion the rules we see in between anime episodes and whatnot are for us to see and the only rules light read are the ones Ryun chose to write on that one singular page. We can see light experimenting with the rules and Ryuk needing to explain some rules that light didn’t know prior
@@grazyterror7612 The thing is this time A-Kira really didn't need Ryuk to explain much to him except the physics of being a Shinigami. He read every rule. Also Ryuk became a lot less tight lipped after Light, Ryuk knows genuinly helping genius Death Note user will lead to the best fun. Only reason Ryuk didn't go back and tell Minoru was because Minoru told him not to.
One thing I love about the a-Kira story is that it really drives home the fact that there is no way you can use the Death Note where it will end well for you. That, and Donald Trump drawn in the Death Note style. That was pretty funny.
I don't know if I would agree. It all would have been fine had he not been so absolute in telling Ryuk to never come back under any circumstance. The core message of that story for me is "Never make general statements without subtleties"
Misa wasn’t “intelligent to a certain extent”, she was very intelligent. She’s just basically a cult member, which is not a sign of low intelligence but of a deep seeded need for validation
@@fordonmiller8461because she traded her lifespan for shinigami eyes. She was clever for baiting Light and Co to head to Aoyama so she could see who didn't have a lifespan visible. Being clever isn't the same as being bright.

@@AM17titan that usually creates a surprisingly functional relationship. if you are too alike, life becomes too repetitive and predictable and the couple begin to lose interest in each other out of sheer boredom.
he didnt because he wanted to be the god of the new world for the longest he could get if he didnt have this god complex he would probally win L way easier and N too the only cost would be half of his life spam
I mean his whole reason for purging the world is so that he could be a living god so cutting his life down is probably no deal since he could just turn down the book and still have a good life ahead of him.
he didnt do it because it shortens the lifespan and he believed he would be doing this until he was old and dead he didnt realize though that only 3 years later was the time of his death
hot take… Mello shouldve been the one to capture Light, Near was to alike L, which Light was most trained for, but Mello was more erratic, harder to figure out, the way the story panned out however wouldnt make sense for Mello to win thus they would have to be changes in the Near/Mello arc to work out, 😅
This is the problem you don’t understand the anime Melos actions directly contributed to catching light. Melo and near are a combination of the two separate personalities of L. Melo is the side of L that is confrontational and ruthless. Near is the more patient logical Side . by them (near and mello) Inadvertently working together all 3 (L, near, mello) we’re Abel to take down light. Melo kidnapping takada was the confrontational side of L and makes sense as of why he died. Becaus L’s confrontational side got him killed by rem. So Near was the only option to win and beat light
In an interview, the author said that Mello actually was not meant to die and was actually supposed to be the one who kills Light instead of near. The reason that the author ended up killing Mello was because he knew too much and it would essentially be too easy! Basically Mello could have speedrun to the ending if the author didn’t intervene to make the story longer. 😢 Wish we could get an alternate ending with Mello defeating Light and winning. Bonus fact: the illustrator of Death Note was actually starting to finally feel like he could draw Mello really well right before Mello died so even the illustrator said he was sad. 🥺
Didn't Misa also gain the life span of the two Shinigami that died for her? So, cutting her life down to 1/4 its span might actually still be REALLY long. We dont know how many years those Shinigami had left
That’s why I think it’s dumb when people say it’s “implied” that she kills herself in the end of Death Note. She had a quarter of her life plus TWO shinigamis lives that could be anywhere from 20 to 700 years.
she was at least very close to after the second eye deal because she was suspected to be kira and was going to get the death sentence, that's why rem panicked and killed L in the first place
@@13I.U3 It doesn't. The lifespan numbers are only based on your original lifespan, they change when you get involved with a death note and can't be accurately read by shinigami eyes anymore. In the anime at least, it's extremely likely she killed herself.
The fact that C-Kira did it to himself suggested he was self-projecting quite a bit. It may point to him being a victim of some misunderstood prior events.
I havent thought of it. So, he cd be already wanting to die and already have low self worth, and therefore sympathetic to ppl who wanted to die. This makes near a bigger genius for triggering his depression. This is a pretty brilliant interpretation, but i am not sure the writer himself thought this through that clearly. But hey, we are allowed to interpret characters beyond the writing!
He probably had an aging relative that lasted years of pain before they finally died and he felt he wanted to spare others of the same grief. But in end the fact he killed so many people (whether they wanted to or not) and was called out as a murdered on live TV despite his reasons was too much for him. Now that I think about it, it's like the complete opposite of Light. Light is called evil, he flips out and says he's actually dishing out justice. This kid gets called a murderer, he's like 'OMG HE'S RIGHT!!! I'M A MONSTER!'
I think the young people asking to die made him realise that anyone who wants to die falls under his criteria and he could use it to relieve himself of that feeling too
Seems like it could be circumvented pretty easily by destroying the used pages.. Nostalgia leaves me interested in a Kira/L rematch, but I kind of imagine it ending with L writing Light's name in the notebook.
Could you imagine the potential ramifications of that eraser making it back to the original death note? It would be a whole different scale of chaos. Namely the overpopulation that would result from erasing every name all the Kiras had written.
@@justcommoncurt how tho? Wouldn't the victims wake up in their coffins, suffocate, and die again??? (What would happen to victims that were cremated or decomposed would be even more confusion)
@@miguelpatino3856 the death eraser doenst bring back people who were cremated or their bodies otherwise destroyed. its mentioned by ryuk in the pilot.
Even though Higuchi was dumb, having a council use the Death Note instead of just one person IS smart. The Death Note was always power that one person shouldn't have
It makes more people a liability though. Any of them could've went to the police directly, and obviously he was betrayed when the police caught on. He used people who were smarter than him as hostages.
but it's true though. Pensioners are a gigantic burden on society. And these are people who actually want to die. In fact right now, there are centers that help people kill themselves. When you say ignorant things like this an especially that "xD" at the end, it just makes you look like you got no clue what you're talking about.
Even though Misa had her life halved twice she's probably going to still live way longer than any mortal person because of all the years that the Shinigami built up go to her
I just love the character development within Light, being so righteous and willing to die at the beginning, compared to going out like a bitch after years of seeing himself as god.
I’d go out like a bitch at that moment too tbf At the start where he said he was willing to die he thought all he would do day by day is kill heinous criminals on TV but 5 years later he’s a literal god with full control over the world going out with a embarrassing ending in a storage house I’d do everything I could to get out that situation too 😂 that’s no death fitting for a god
I think Misa killed herself at the end when she went to the bridge, she may not have any memory of the death note, but her love for light existed independent of that, in all times she lost her memory she still was obssessed with light despite the notebook or whatever. So I believe she knew light was gone and had no reason to keep living.
@mila6589 With Light also being revealed as Kira and Misa previously being suspected of being the second Kira, it's possible they would've come after her next
Near did cheat but not in the way you think. The night before the final showdown Near has a single guy break into a bank, into a security vault, copy hundreds of thousands of names perfectly from a real Death Note to a fake Death Note, and get out of the security vault and bank BEFORE the bank opens in the morning without leaving a trace. He would actually need to be the flash because that's physically impossible to do.
I read somewhere that they didn't actually break in but just copied Mikami's keys. That makes much more sense. Coupled with Near using the Death note, it actually makes the ending believable
@@todorstojanov3100, Near directly states that they copied all of Mikami's belongings when they got their hands on his suitcase. So yeah, entering an empty bank in the middle of the night for CIA/FBI agents with keys at the ready is probably not hard. And there was not 1 guy, but 2, Near states that as well. And obviously, there weren't hundreds of thousands of names.
@@bobbyboom9it didnt have to be only at night because mikami kept a very strict schedule of work, gym, etc. they knew exactly when he would be at the bank and when they could use his death note without being caught.
The killing of Naomi Misora made perfect sense, she was a variable that had figured out some kind of ambiguity in her partners death and was going to approach L, I'm surprised you didn't catch that yourself
I loved Mello. He started with zero support from the L state, and using only his wits and being far more proactive than L and Near ever were, gets the death note, kills most of his enemies, gets founding and pretty much solved the case 99%. It's a pity he came so far that the author had to off him to keep the story on pace 😢😢😢😢😢😢
@@captainsoiI think he would have refused saving. I believe Mello reached the conclusion that the only way to stop Kira was for either Near or Mello to sacrifice themselves so that the other may gain the necessary edge. In the end, Mello swallowed his pride and help give Near the W.
They killed Minoru off, like bro didn’t have a chance to defend himself. I understand he told ryuk to not see him again, but it’s a waste of a character if the God of Death literally made a rule to prevent EXACTLY what he was doing. Seems like writers didn’t know what to do with him and just screwed him over. L writing lol
I think the point of that oneshot was to show how nothing good will ever come from using the death note, even if you make a “perfect” plan the shinigami will personally intervene to make sure you don’t get a happy ending
@@ozzi9816 that's just a fantasy fairytale for little kids, maybe legal liability, wouldn't want to glorify killing people... but wait, minoru didn't kill anyone. What else would you espect from a social justice warrior with trump deragement syndrome. The author got butthurt from his own character so he killed him off. I mean... come on guys, we all know in real life bad guys NEVER get away with their crimes... we live in a perfect utopia where the good guys always win... right?
Near definitely used the death note. There is no way for them to steal Mikami's and duplicate it in less than a night. They simply didn't. They just gave him a random fake death note that wasn't pretending to be exactly as the one mikami had, and made him ignore that by writing something like "he follows the plan using the fake one, doesn't tell anyone about it and dies misteriously 10 days after". This also gives L more credit, because it was basically imposible to prove that Light was Kira without cheating.
@@hipopotamodata9932Funnily enough that is Matsuda's theory in the final manga chapter. And honestly, if Near actually used the notebook, then good for him. They had to get that prick Light and put an end to the 6 years of Kira's terror. If that had to be done by putting the name of X-Kira in the notebook, then that's a very small pricr to pay.
Not to ruin your fun but no, he didn't use it. It is a rule that you can't control someone with shinigami eyes. Before you mentioned it, misa controlled the mafia guy before he made the deal.
@@anna.owo.Gotta reply here, but you can control a user with shinigami eyes, the rule you’re referring to (#39) is translated in the English manga in a confusing way. The original Japanese text says “the lifespan visible by shinigami eyes is the original lifespan, one that is not affected/influenced by the death note in the human world. If the victim is killed using the death note, the remaining lifespan of that victim will be provided to the Shinigami” so the lack of influence refers to the fact that owning a death note/a death note existing in the human world can change a persons life span, and that the shinigami eyes won’t tell you that affected lifespan. You definitely can still control a human with Shinigami eyes.
Ohba confirmed Near "is a cheater". He definitely manipulated Mikami I remember thinking that after watching the last episode and especially after finishing the manga, its very L like and Near wanted to prove more than anything Light is Kira, which ironically Light could have used to his advantage by convincing the others of this if he had remained calm since he had three crucial points of information. 1-Near is desperate to prove Light is Kira at whatever cost 2-Near and the others could see Ryuk (meaning they touched the Death Note) 3-Mikami acted out of character act a critical moment Had Light rationalized those three things he could've delayed everyone just long enough by convincing them of these things (even if untrue) and then wrote their names down since they were unaware he hid a piece of the note on him. Light's downfall was he never conceived he could lose (Ohba also stated he never doubted himself), had he accounted for that he may have won.
I still can't beleve they launched a Death Note on a fucking missle, and the characters and the show itself didn't seem to recognize how goofy that was.
It was the best excuse at the time, you need to remember: death note was made at a time that wasn't even collective calls, the author had to create a whole machine just for the sake of all the characters in a scene could talk to each other and listen to everything. Drones were beyond possible in that era so a missile was the best explanation for something not driven by humans and at the same time was fast so it wouldn't be intercepted
I spend over 6 hours daily on CZcams watching all kind of videos, streams and listening to music and I can say, I had not legitimately enjoyed a video like this one in a very long time, good job! Subscribed.
When Mikami wrote names in the Death Note, it wasn’t in a spirit of indifference like most others. That dude hated people so much that he wanted to delete them from existence.
I think Near may have used it in the Manga, but not in the Anime. There weren't any clues or mention of the theory in the anime, but in the manga, it is very clear the author wants the audience to believe he may have used the death note.
Though it is not implied by any character in the anime, I still think that he did use the Death Note. I think that the plan he describes with them stealing and duplicating mikami's note is not possible. They can't just steal it from the bank, make an exact duplicate and return it back to the bank all in just a night. I mean, first of all, it was kept in the bank for a reason: security. And even if they were able to steal it, they would've never been able to make an exact copy in just a night. I mean, Mikami was literally using a microscope to check the authenticity of it.
I agree. That scene where they explained how that no nothing schmuck managed to make a perfect replica of a notebook that Mikami spent hours a day for months writing names into could just be copied perfectly in a single night had my eyes rolling to the back of my head. Production pushback demanded that Light could not win in the end like Oba wanted so if the ending feels dissatisfying that's why.
@@justcommoncurtProduction? The trajectory of the story corner Light in there regardless of outside forces. The manga and the series were aware of that much, the author worked towards this result for the ending in the manga, didn't he not?
@@ibroplatin4915in the anime heaven and hell do exist but death note users can’t go there and i think in the manga heaven and hell don’t exist and everyone goes to nothingness but im not sure I haven’t read it
As much as I love Minoru and A Kira story, I’d say a major con I see many leave out is the disastrous consequences that would follow An economic crisis would come to two countries: America and Japan What Minoru did was practically cause another Great Depression for America, with the loss of so much money that was owned by the country itself, and possibly the greatest inflation that would ever grace manoind, with each Japanese citizen gaining around the same amount of money, and it being so high would cause the value of it to dramatically decrease, similar to Germany’s economic depression. Unless Japan’s citizens solely bought outside the country itself and used it sparingly, as well as giving/spending money to America, an economic crisis is sure to follow Overall, I still really enjoyed the manga and was actually to, somewhat, predict what his end goal was (I figured he was going to send it to a select group of people, causing the story to last longer (forgot it was a short story) and create a similar chase as the original series except also different) and the plan was indeed practically built near perfect Honestly a shame how he ended up
I realize if I don’t mention it, I will get people saying “but they showed them being prosperous” Well, while that is true, it wouldn’t last long when you realize, if the value stayed the same, there would be much more demand than possible Imagine if everyone decided to buy to classic styled mustangs, there would be no time to make it, too little resources locally and too costly far away, and get inthe way of other things needed to be produced It would also cause to things for the work environment: 1) no one would get anything done since they’re filthy rich; 2) it would make make it much more difficult to pay those that are working, since both employees and higher ups would have the same amount of money, even if they were already rich, to each other and not enough to give the workers that would equal the amount they worked for Now, it was in Tokyo itself, yes, but even then it still would cause a disastrous affect around Japan, as every citizen there is filthy rich, the inflation rises there , resources are bought constantly outside of Tokyo, and cause the outer areas to work much harder, beyond capable And the there is how it all affects the human element. Tokyo’s population, as mentioned, would likely stop working for a time and not be paid a fair amount of working, and the outer areas would likely revolt, due to lack of value they have, how much they must work, and being completely left out Maybe dying while receiving the money was secretly a blessing in disguise, because now Japan is going to be in a depressive hell, along with the US.
That's true, and I think that even more importantly, Mikami sold the death note to the government. Luckily, this was stopped by the Shinigami King, but it would have been absolutely disastrous if the government of any country got their hands on it. Even Light's murder spree seems insignificant in comparison to the idea of a government in possession of a Death Note. There is no way he didn't think that through, so his "good intentions" can be called out here.
Great video! I always enjoy Death Note videos, especially ones like this that don't tread similar ground. I do have one issue though, if the king didn't want people to buy and sell Death Notes he could just render the note powerless, or perhaps since it's demonstrated that memory loss can occur if you come up with that idea it'll simply be erased from your mind. I guess it just wouldn't be Death Note w/o the death lol.
Taro was the best Kira tbh. He uses it as a kid, feels bad, and then fixes his mistake. Then when he's older he can watch everything else that happens when the Deathnote because more "main stream" I guess (btw i dont think the police suspected him because they quite literally said they all died of heart attacks and there was no chance he could've done it)
In retrospect, Light could’ve written Mastuda and Aizawa’s name on the sheet he keeps with him in the car on the way to meet with N as “insurance” allowing him the excuse to “flee for his life” and meet with Mikami who by then would’ve seen all the SPK members’ names and written them. If they gave pursuit, which they maybe would’ve, then Light and Mikami would’ve found out the notebook Mikami had is fake and then Light would just transcript the names from the fake notebook to a sheet he carries.
i think that was more of lights very good planning with the memory erasing shit more than her, because L got her dead to rights as kira like immediately after her whole taped stunt
@@mg9x_x502 well yes..but I think Light made a mistake too..in the episode when Light killed the ''fake L'' it was just a stupid mistake too..like the best detective in the world that no one ever saw,no one knows his name, out of nowhere shows his real name and face..like yes I understand that Light just wanted to kill him and ''become the God'' but still..

The only reason Naomi was to be killed off was the fact that am on meeting Light she figured out that Kira was on the bus, and she would have solved the case in 2 episodes. She was killed so that the show would not be 11 episodes long

@@therecessionista6271the indentation wouldn't be major enough to actually get good results and there probably wouldn't be indentation except for people like Lind. L Tailor where light was going pretty hard on the pen because usually if you're writing a lot you're probably not pressing that hard
I hope they do another Deathnote series but with a separate timeline with a completely different user. Maybe even one even long before the timeline of the og Deathnote series.
The dumbest thing about Misa not remembering L's name, is that L's real name was revealed in Vol. 13 as "L Lawliet". Like, OKAY if she doesn't remember his last name, but you'd think she'd at least remember enough to tell Light that it's 'L'! Seems like a oversight by the writers, but maybe we can just assume that she's THAT dumb to not think that bit of info is important.
She also has no clue she's meeting L when she first meet Ryuzaki. sure, L is a weird name and would raise eyebrows, but there is no reason why she would think at that moment the name of this random dude has any kind of importance. And realistically, after a month of torture, losing your memory then regaining it again, I could imagine how the name of that one random guy that one day would be hard to recall
@@sebastienaguila2107 Yea but common... Even with your theory, 'L' is one letter. And the series even highlighted that she paid attention to his fake name. We can compare it to seeing a strange license plate; you'd remember if you met someone that pulled up in a car with "111111". And even if you don't remember the exact letter/number, you'd remember that it's just ONE of something, which would be a significant information to Light. Like, honestly, both of us is just making excuses for her lmao. Don't get me wrong, Misa is my favourite character in the series, with me owning only the Vol. 4 single just because she's on the cover, but, yea the only canonical explanation for her not telling Light anything is that she's dumb.

I'm really excited for the musical album. I wonder how similar it is to the concept album as the cllips of the musical I've seen looks like they use the exact same songs. The only difference between the West End and Japanese one is the staging and actors.
Same here I can’t wait! I’m sure it’ll be very similar to the original concept just with some cool additions (I’m thinking a choir might be involved in certain songs like “Kira” but that’s just a hunch based on certain stuff I saw)
I feel like Mikami is the most slandered person in death note. I think some people have gotten gaslighted by Light into blaming Mikami for "making an unnecessary move". When Mikami and light spoke on the phone Light told Mikami ,"he could not move freely." Mikami understood that to mean that Light could no longer kill freely seeing as Kira gave Mikami a deathnote. Light could have during that phone call, during any of the meetings between him and Takada or asked Ryuk to tell Mikami correct hisself and told Mikami that he could kill a few people in an absolute pinch with the piece in his watch. Light did not tell Mikami this. Mikami Logicly assumed that of he didn't kill Takada then the piece of the deathnote she wrote Mello's name on could be discovered. So i would argue that Mikami's actions were VERY necessary if you look at the situation from an objective point of view. Light himself agreed it was necessary when he killed Takada in a car with two people who suspect him of being Kira. If light and Mikami could have communicated without Takada them both writing her name down would have been discovered and the mistake could have been fixed. About Mikami not testing the notebook before coming to the meeting i prescribe to the theory that Near used to deathnote to control Mikami so I dont blame Mikami for that.
The second part of the manga-to-anime adaptation isn't as good as the first half. They leave out critically parts and it really loses a lot. Mikami is one of the victims.
Mikami is/ has been for a while, my favourite character and the hate he gets is really stupid, Light is so fucking vague with his "unnecessary moves" so it makes full sense that when Takada - the person who is literally the connection to X-Kira and L-Kira - is kidnapped he'd see it as a "shit, I have to get rid of her moment" Light legitimately does the exact same thing and since Mikami doesn't know that Light *could* kill still (the whole "kill for me charade" & "God cannot move freely") are clear pointers, if Light had been so great with foresight he should've at least said that he could deal with any *MAJOR* problems
It seems implied that shinigamis are not allowed to roam the human world freely. Cause I do not understand what is stoping Ryuk from simply going to grab apples on his own. Even in the series I was like “Go get you some apples. Why do you need Light for that?”
It's interesting to hear you say that, unlike C-Kira, Light could handle being called out by Near. When Near called out Light, he panicked and ended up being shot by Matsuda.
I'm not sure C-Kira actually created a new rule. He made the Shinigami King mad, yes, and there was a divine intervention, but his name was written by Ryuk. Therefore I propose that the Shinigami King ordered to intercept the deal by lying to the president and punish A-Kira for his plan...
ryuk explains that the users of his death notes will die by him writing their names in his notebook. this is shown at the end when light is already dying and ryuk still has to write his name. the rule still affected c-kira its just that ryuk was the shinigami who had to carry out the rule
I've always though something was off about Misa and that there was a deeper backstory for her, or it could just have been how she was written. 1) Her parents were murdered by a stalker(?) so who reported the murder and named the suspect. - Then again, the IRL Japanese justice system seems 'Guilty till proven innocent', as a notable chunk of their prisoners are later found innocent. Even in other countries like America you get people who are sent to prison for DECADES and can later be proven innocent. 2) Also, it seems like she was modeling young and had a stalker(I assume from modeling) that was going to kill her. IDK why else a Shinigami who loved her would interfere and die from killing someone who was hurting another human. - I think Misa's life was supposed to end there but that's my head cannon. 3) With her parents dead, who was taking care of Misa. I assume Misa was still underage/needed a guardian with her parents gone. - Was it some relatives? or was Misa alone, and traumatized by her parent's death and nearly her own? 4) While Misa makes the Eye deal twice, she had the life spans of 2 shinigami... however does it seem like the numbers can change and not because of the passage of time? - I don't think the life span numbers show WHEN they would die, just a time frame for a natural death. Assuming no murder, sickness, Natural disaster or self-deletion. 5) Misa gives me the impression that she is Codependent. Possibly her parents(mother) got her into modeling very young and did everything to make Misa look cute. I've noticed Misa is very short, then again not sure if it's just the art style. - Misa being so small and saying sweet would make her fat, continuing to model and her clinging ness to Light. Maked her seem like she had been very dependent on her parents who treated her like a doll/money maker. With her parents gone she had not one to 'use' her. Thus she clung to Kira. 6) When she first appeared before Light, she said that she had taken care of a 'Freind' of hers that helped her make the tapes then never mentioned again. Probably killed. - I think this 'friend' was a loner who had misa as their only a friend and was willing to do anything for her. 7) After the time skip, Misa is still with light and even tries to seduice him in a frilly pink thing that doesn't even catch his attention... yet the other men in the room react to seeing Misa in so little... Also misa's more adult wardrobe looked more Adult and less Lolita. Light telling her how to dress or is she trying to imtate the women she thinks Light likes. - I mean seriously! The two MARRIED men gocked at her but light didn't even turn around! He's eather Gay or Asexual, my money is on Asexual.
2) she was supposed to die... that's exactly why the shinigami decided to intervene. he was in love with her and dreaded that day because he knew it was coming because of her lifespan that he could see. it's in the anime. 4) also explained in the anime. the lifespan indicates the real time of death, whatever the cause may be, not only natural causes. I'll redirect you to my point above, the Shinigami knew she was gonna die, even though she was meant to be murdered, because lifespan shows real time of death, whatever the cause including murder, sickness, natural distater or self deletion. the only cause of death that can't be seen ahead would actually be death by death note... It is often better with supernatural stories not to look too deep into it. If you take a second to think about it, it's not very hard to shatter death note's plot into a million pieces, as too much makes strictly no sense.
7) I'm pretty sure he looks down on her and viewed her as an interesting tool. A normal human would feel attraction but Light's pretty high up in the dark triad category and probably only pays attention to other individuals that he thinks can match him like L or Near.
Taro is by far my favourite use of the death note because you have to take into consideration that this guy actually was a child and that he had a greater understanding of the world than a literal super genius he even thought about using the death note to do with lighted but ultimately he decided against it because he knew that was in marvel he actually managed to live a full and meaningful life even though he both used and on the death note he even experience death itself it truly is magical by far my favourite user of the death note is the only person who boat used and owned the death note and yet he managed to live family good life and also not become a criminal they say that when you use the death note that there is something broken on you that your life is doomed to misery at the moment you writing that it’s gone and a piece of your humanity is gone you can never go back he was the one and only exception to this rule is the only person who ever wrote in the death note and still remained virtuous truly a chad
A-kira is the only person who didn't deserve to die, he was smart enough to get past Near ( most likely L too) and solved poverty in japan for those under the age of 60, he also used the death note without even using it, so that says alot .
Giving Mikami slack for potentially being controlled by Near using the deathnote, but not to poor Ray Penber who was pretty much certainly being controlled by Light using the death note.
This channel is surprisingly efficient with giving information. Maybe too efficient. The efficiency and professionalism of this channel reminds me of Kira. Kira would have made the exact same video if under pressure. I have no proof, but I'm sure I'm correct because I'm L.
One of 4 things has happened to Misa after the end: 1. Near killed her with the Death Note out of pity or hatred 2. She's being held captive and monitored by the task force 3. She's living life alone and depressed unable to do shit about it 4. She relinquished ownership of the notebook, forgot about being Kira, and eventually stopped mourning Light and is living a normal life For anyone wondering, she couldn't have killed herself. She recieved a quarter of the lifespan of 2 shinigami, meaning potentially thousands or even millions of years. There is literally NOTHING except a Death Note that can affect her lifespan. She can't kill herself with anything except the Death Note. And at the end of the series, she doesn't have access to one, since the Task Force knew she was the 2nd Kira and wouldn't let her anywhere near a notebook. So, she's either alive and doing something, or Near killed her. No other options. Even if she jumped off that ledge at the end of the anime, she would have survived. Poor Misa...
Why wouldn't she be able to kill herself? A longer lifespan doesn't mean you are invincible, just that you live significantly longer before dying of natural causes. If you could see the dates of someone's death floating over their head, you could still kill shoot someone who wasn't supposed to die for another 40 years. I mean, unless they are Wolverine, but then again every story would be better with "...and then Wolverine showed up."
-It was literally confirmed by the creator that she dies one year after light. -Nowhere in the anime or manga does it say you cannot die if you have the additional lifespan of a shinigami. It just means you get that many extra years added to your potential lifespan. -You are confusing being immortal with being invincible. Being invincible means you are immune to damage and cannot be killed by external factors. Being immortal means you don't age and cannot die of natural factors. To live forever with no threat of ever dying you need to be both immortal AND invincible. I know they are often treated as the same in anime and other forms of media but there is a very distinct difference. As such, Misa could still be killed. -By your logic, if you have the shinigami eyes and can see when someone is going to die, that means that person could not be killed by a death note user because they have that many more years left to live. -Being completely invincible is such an awful idea that it would ruin the entire point of the series.
@@andruism7 I literally said that the ONLY THING that can alter a lifespan is the death note. A person with shinigami eyes can still kill someone with the death note, because using the death note can end someone's life before their lifespan is over. She could not be killed by ANYTHING except a death note. And that's not to say she would be invincible to bullets or something, it means she straight up won't get into a situation where she dies. She won't kill herself, and noone else will kill her. Simple as that. Unless someone used a death note on her, she's staying alive as long as the lifespan says so. And no, it's not a "potential" lifespan. It's the definitive lifespan. Nothing can affect it. Nothing, EXCEPT A DEATH NOTE. A shinigami or a human with a Death Note could kill her. Nothing else could though.
@@theoverseer1775 And yet, somehow, she dies a year after Light. You don't want her to die, so you are coming up with all sorts of reasons for her not to. The creator confirmed it. The end. If you keep arguing this then you are just in denial.
Finally, you've made a Death Note explaining video. And I definitely agree with you about all its characters deserved their rightful rates. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯
Oh thank you for that theory at the end. Through the rules of the death note they showed us how smart Near was instead of telling us. Wow! 🤔That makes me want to rewatch.
I dont like the Taro and Miura story. It violates everything in the anime if there was a previous user and the police were aware of it in the past. Plus if it was a popular franchise
It's funny how the reason Light lost is simply because he wanted to kill L. If he didn't kill Lind L Taylor or the FBI agents L would have no idea about who he was and many more people would support Kira and Light would continue doing what he did.
The Mikami thing was an asspull anyway because they try to gaslight you into believing that Gevanni alone took only a night to copy all of or a significant amount of the Death Note with the EXACT SAME WAY the names were put in. So this could just be considered logic at all if the Death Note allows the aforementioned cheat
Light was too busy trying to transcend the boundaries of the mortal world and become the God of the new world. Hence, he didn’t care about earthly concepts of being gay or straight. However, in reality he was just a sociopath who wore the cloak of whomever he needed to be at that particular moment. L has a quote about the types of monsters in society and I think Light perfectly fits that analogy.
That's kinda the point. A-Kira tried to cheat the system, and got screwed by forces he couldn't control. The rule was made after the fact, since the Shinigami King wants humans to *use* the Death Note to kill humans. Ryuk told Donald Trump of the new rule, and even admitted it was last minute.
So… who’s your favourite Death Note user? 👀

Didn't Misa gain the rest of the years the shinigami had to live when they died for her?
Wouldn't share money would be the worse idea ever considering actual economics? Like don't that just make everything more expensive and the country inhabitable by literally everyone else?
@@yurimpassI guess that depends on the number of people who got rich, Japans population is over 100m and the amount of new millionaires seems to only be in the six figures, so I don’t know how severe inflation would get but the story heavily implies that it’s all good
@@-Umbrella. Yup, I think that's why she could frivolously throw away her lifespan so often
@@-Umbrella.yeah! She got a lot of years from Gelus (which she then cut in half twice) but the years from Rem is a total unknown
Don’t forget that Misa may have halved her life twice, but since Wrem & Jealous killed themselves for her, she inherited their lifespans. So, shy of execution or a death note being used on her, she’ll live much longer than any normal human
Maybe. We can't know how many years the Shinigami had stockpiled. To us, it would make sense to store many years, but we also know the Shinigami are generally lazy, bored, and would have no reason to worry much about running out of time. Rem and Jealous could have had hundreds of years or less than a decade between them, we can't know - only speculate.
Yeah unless she, hypothetically, idk, killed herself
man, i read the death note manga back when i had to wait for chapters to come out, never watched the anime (never felt the need to, the snips ive seen seemed faithful enough to the manga), but i legit dont remember anything about misa getting the shinigami to fall in love with her. i dont remember her gaining extra life spans. I remember light dying, and me feeling absolutely terrible for her because she halved her life twice for his ass and got absolutely nothing out of it
Misa's death really pissed me off because so much was sacrificed to keep her alive then she just kills herself
@@xiphosmaniacWhen her backstory was being told by Rem she was cornered in an alley about to be didled and merced and Jealous was watching and in love with her (he almost always was watching just her).
The only way that he could save her, going to human realm (if he even could) would have taken too long. So as a result Jealous uses his eyes to merc the guy about to nerc Misa, which activated a rule of the book/Shinigami being that if a Shinigami mercs to protect someone they love they will in turn fail to alive. It also transfers their remaining years to the one protected.
When Rem has her subscription to life expire it is to protect Misa as well.
L has her captured and cornered and Light won't/can't do anything to save her and knew Rem would merc L to save Misa. She then does the deed to L to save her losing her life as a result and yet again funneling her remaining years into Misa.
So simple math, let's assume Misa's subscription date for life expiration was that night in the alley, she have 0 years left.
Jealous saves her and gives her 100 years.
She then takes the deal, dropping her to 50 years.
She then transfers ownership and regains it and takes the eyes back and halves again to 25 years.
Rem then goes byebye giving her 100 years bringing her total to 125.
That's all assuming both Shinigami only had 100 years stored.
Each time they eat a soul they get the remainder of their time.
Unless the alley dude, L, and Qatari were all destined to punch their card that way (that's impossible) she AT MINIMUM gained gained 40(L)+40(Alley)+20(Watari) giving 100 years, assuming both Shinigami were going to croak that day.
Misa had the MOST plot armor in the entire series and throws a crybaby whiny baby party when Light dies and cancels her subscription herself on a cliff.
Worst case she was going to live to 130, best case she had THOUSANDS of years to live.
God Misa is a horrible character.
Lol
Lights dad thinking he was innocent before he died killed me inside lmao. Like it was happy for him but so sad and tragic that Kira really was light given how noble soichiro was
The scene is so good. If you remember they play this really tragic music that sets the tone of what someone "should" be feeling in the moment which clashes heavily with Light's inner monolog trying to figure out a way to play the scene to get his dad to get rid of Mello and not even being sad about his dad being on his deathbed, and worse, dooning his father to an afterlife in purgatory because he used the notebook. (Which, from clues in the tailend of the series leads me to believe he was also changed into a shinigami)
@@justcommoncurt Soichiro didn't write a name in the Death Note, so he's not a "user" in that sense.
Soichiro did not use the note book in the end. Also in the manga, just before Light dies, a flashback plays to that convo about notebook users not going to heaven or hell. That scene was expanded and basically Light called Ruyk out on his bs claiming that it just means heaven or hell does not exist at all. Ryuk, impressed by Light's sharpness, confirms it, claiming that all humans end up in the same place after death no matter what. So using notebook doesn't exclude you from the fate shared by others in death.
The fact that Light didn't hesitate on the idea that his dad's life span would be cut in half after he made the deal for the shinigami eyes was such a giveaway that he was Kira
A-Kira was the goat. He used the Deathnote so well that he beat the game. So much so that the Shinigami king had to change the rules just so A-kira wouldnt win. Coward
Well, it was actually A-Kira fault, he said to Ryuk to don't come back for ANY reason, that includes the new rule..
That happeneds in casinos sometimes. My dad used to get comps for free meals at a casino from just sitting at the poker table. We ate pretty well when that happened. They had to change the rule cuz it was being exploited.
Don’t mean to sound like a hater but what is this “Used the Death Note so well the Shinigami King had to change the rules” like respectfully what? He ain’t even use it. All he basically did was sell it. The smartest thing he did was basically have the knowledge to sell it via also somewhat helping the Japanese economy by essentially giving random citizens of Japan 1 Mill and using Ryuk to promote it. If feel like when fans say he used the Death Note so well they mean he never got caught with it in his possession and nor was Near capable of every figuring out who had it. Which while is impressive it’s not like Near could ever find him in the first place, he literally did not use the book and never left it on him. They was know one he could suspect but simply had to take the L (pun not intended) Also while what the Shinigami King did was a dick move I would call him a coward. Coward implies a fear of something. Don’t believe the Shinigami King feared him as much as he was simply annoyed of the situation with essentially everyone getting knowledge of the Death Note in the world and everyone trying to bid for it probably rubbed him the wrong way maybe even thinking to himself
“Use it or give it up what is this bullshxt”
Anyways my 2 cents
@@zolod.uchiha5102 for me A-kira was 0/10 lol he was boring idc
@@zolod.uchiha5102to counter a bit (respectfully), he used the death note for personal gain and his use causes the shinigami king to create a brand new rule. The death note was supposed to cause humans misfortune and misery, therefore finding a use that makes your life much better would be using the death note well. Arguably better than any previous user.
as a popular post once stated: light didnt have a slow descent into madness, he saw the downward slope coming and grabbed the sled
I think what annoyed me about A-Kira was that he got done so dirty. When you initially receive the Death Note, you are able to read and accept all the rules *before* you start using it. You're informed about how everything works, so it's an equitable arrangement. Since we are already in Spoiler territory due to the video: If you read the Special, just as Ryuk is about to hand the Book to Trump, he does inform Trump about it, who promptly rejects it, but plans to never tell a soul that he doesn't actually have it (still giving him a lot of power because people would assume the US has the notebook) but Minoru is left entirely in the dark and then dies without ever having a chance to reject the payment.
By changing the rules after the Sale the Shinigami King broke part of the Core of what makes the Death Note so appealing imho
Yeah deity really should not be fuqin getting played and changing rules around just for one human. He should have waited until after the deed was done. Extremely human of him though, probably the most human thing he's ever done.
There is literally a rule in the note that says that a shinigami has no obligation to explain all the rules. In my opinion the rules we see in between anime episodes and whatnot are for us to see and the only rules light read are the ones Ryun chose to write on that one singular page. We can see light experimenting with the rules and Ryuk needing to explain some rules that light didn’t know prior
@@grazyterror7612 The thing is this time A-Kira really didn't need Ryuk to explain much to him except the physics of being a Shinigami. He read every rule. Also Ryuk became a lot less tight lipped after Light, Ryuk knows genuinly helping genius Death Note user will lead to the best fun. Only reason Ryuk didn't go back and tell Minoru was because Minoru told him not to.
...
Ryuk might have saved him if he was a bit nicer. Or at least that's how I justify the *slightly* bad ending
One thing I love about the a-Kira story is that it really drives home the fact that there is no way you can use the Death Note where it will end well for you. That, and Donald Trump drawn in the Death Note style. That was pretty funny.
I don't know if I would agree. It all would have been fine had he not been so absolute in telling Ryuk to never come back under any circumstance. The core message of that story for me is "Never make general statements without subtleties"

Stellar analysis
Can you just imagine just how much better Light would have executed his plan had he chosen to take the Shinigami Eyes?
he was blinded by his ego
he didnt because he wanted to be the god of the new world for the longest he could get
if he didnt have this god complex he would probally win L way easier and N too
the only cost would be half of his life spam
I mean his whole reason for purging the world is so that he could be a living god so cutting his life down is probably no deal since he could just turn down the book and still have a good life ahead of him.
would he not have died 3 years later to ryuk for some odd reason
he didnt do it because it shortens the lifespan and he believed he would be doing this until he was old and dead he didnt realize though that only 3 years later was the time of his death
hot take… Mello shouldve been the one to capture Light, Near was to alike L, which Light was most trained for, but Mello was more erratic, harder to figure out, the way the story panned out however wouldnt make sense for Mello to win thus they would have to be changes in the Near/Mello arc to work out, 😅
Yep, Light was afraid of Mello
I always saw it as Mellow and Near teaming up to be two steps ahead of Light since his death was part of Light's capture. L M N two steps ahead of L
I mean Near being too alike to L and light failing could show that lights ego had grown too large for him to take down Near
This is the problem you don’t understand the anime Melos actions directly contributed to catching light. Melo and near are a combination of the two separate personalities of L. Melo is the side of L that is confrontational and ruthless. Near is the more patient logical Side . by them (near and mello) Inadvertently working together all
3 (L, near, mello) we’re Abel to take down light. Melo kidnapping takada was the confrontational side of L and makes sense as of why he died. Becaus L’s confrontational side got him killed by rem. So Near was the only option to win and beat light
In an interview, the author said that Mello actually was not meant to die and was actually supposed to be the one who kills Light instead of near. The reason that the author ended up killing Mello was because he knew too much and it would essentially be too easy! Basically Mello could have speedrun to the ending if the author didn’t intervene to make the story longer. 😢 Wish we could get an alternate ending with Mello defeating Light and winning.
Bonus fact: the illustrator of Death Note was actually starting to finally feel like he could draw Mello really well right before Mello died so even the illustrator said he was sad. 🥺
The art for deathnote is consistently amazing! Even the pilot looks astounding.

Didn't Misa also gain the life span of the two Shinigami that died for her? So, cutting her life down to 1/4 its span might actually still be REALLY long. We dont know how many years those Shinigami had left
That’s why I think it’s dumb when people say it’s “implied” that she kills herself in the end of Death Note. She had a quarter of her life plus TWO shinigamis lives that could be anywhere from 20 to 700 years.

In the anime at least, it's extremely likely she killed herself.
The fact that C-Kira did it to himself suggested he was self-projecting quite a bit. It may point to him being a victim of some misunderstood prior events.
I havent thought of it. So, he cd be already wanting to die and already have low self worth, and therefore sympathetic to ppl who wanted to die. This makes near a bigger genius for triggering his depression. This is a pretty brilliant interpretation, but i am not sure the writer himself thought this through that clearly. But hey, we are allowed to interpret characters beyond the writing!
He probably had an aging relative that lasted years of pain before they finally died and he felt he wanted to spare others of the same grief. But in end the fact he killed so many people (whether they wanted to or not) and was called out as a murdered on live TV despite his reasons was too much for him.
Now that I think about it, it's like the complete opposite of Light. Light is called evil, he flips out and says he's actually dishing out justice. This kid gets called a murderer, he's like 'OMG HE'S RIGHT!!! I'M A MONSTER!'
I think the young people asking to die made him realise that anyone who wants to die falls under his criteria and he could use it to relieve himself of that feeling too

it's smart plan in concept but unfortunately he was too impulsive and greedy to carry it out well
2:00 cheap L calling someone cheap kira is kinda funny 💀
Near was a Goat, don't trip.
Frrr
Matsuda's comment about pensioners being bad for the economy could be lifted straight out of Mein Kampf xD
No kidding
I mean, he was a Kira supporter of course he would interpret that as such.
but it's true though. Pensioners are a gigantic burden on society. And these are people who actually want to die. In fact right now, there are centers that help people kill themselves. When you say ignorant things like this an especially that "xD" at the end, it just makes you look like you got no clue what you're talking about.
Even though Misa had her life halved twice she's probably going to still live way longer than any mortal person because of all the years that the Shinigami built up go to her
Imagine a Shinigami in the realm be like “ohh a really long lifespan…. Welp no work for me for millennia”
I just love the character development within Light, being so righteous and willing to die at the beginning, compared to going out like a bitch after years of seeing himself as god.
I’d go out like a bitch at that moment too tbf
At the start where he said he was willing to die he thought all he would do day by day is kill heinous criminals on TV but 5 years later he’s a literal god with full control over the world going out with a embarrassing ending in a storage house I’d do everything I could to get out that situation too 😂 that’s no death fitting for a god
I think Misa killed herself at the end when she went to the bridge, she may not have any memory of the death note, but her love for light existed independent of that, in all times she lost her memory she still was obssessed with light despite the notebook or whatever. So I believe she knew light was gone and had no reason to keep living.
@mila6589 With Light also being revealed as Kira and Misa previously being suspected of being the second Kira, it's possible they would've come after her next
Near did cheat but not in the way you think. The night before the final showdown Near has a single guy break into a bank, into a security vault, copy hundreds of thousands of names perfectly from a real Death Note to a fake Death Note, and get out of the security vault and bank BEFORE the bank opens in the morning without leaving a trace. He would actually need to be the flash because that's physically impossible to do.
Yeah, even watching death note for the first time as a young teen, that didn't make a lot of sense to me
I read somewhere that they didn't actually break in but just copied Mikami's keys. That makes much more sense. Coupled with Near using the Death note, it actually makes the ending believable
@@todorstojanov3100, Near directly states that they copied all of Mikami's belongings when they got their hands on his suitcase. So yeah, entering an empty bank in the middle of the night for CIA/FBI agents with keys at the ready is probably not hard. And there was not 1 guy, but 2, Near states that as well. And obviously, there weren't hundreds of thousands of names.
@@bobbyboom9it didnt have to be only at night because mikami kept a very strict schedule of work, gym, etc. they knew exactly when he would be at the bank and when they could use his death note without being caught.
@@user-fk5ld7je2v they only found out about it a day before the final ep
The killing of Naomi Misora made perfect sense, she was a variable that had figured out some kind of ambiguity in her partners death and was going to approach L, I'm surprised you didn't catch that yourself
I think he was just saying light promised not to kill her because Ray did what light wanted
Shame she got knocked out so fast. I'd like Oba to write just ONE compelling female character for once.
The way light gloated about it was just evil though
I loved Mello. He started with zero support from the L state, and using only his wits and being far more proactive than L and Near ever were, gets the death note, kills most of his enemies, gets founding and pretty much solved the case 99%. It's a pity he came so far that the author had to off him to keep the story on pace 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Yeah loved him too he was badass
He's my favorite character overall. He had to force his own end. I wonder if there would have been a way to save him.
We're in the minority but I love Mello as well. I'm in even more of the minority for continuing to like the story when Near & Mello got involved.
@@captainsoiI think he would have refused saving. I believe Mello reached the conclusion that the only way to stop Kira was for either Near or Mello to sacrifice themselves so that the other may gain the necessary edge. In the end, Mello swallowed his pride and help give Near the W.
They killed Minoru off, like bro didn’t have a chance to defend himself. I understand he told ryuk to not see him again, but it’s a waste of a character if the God of Death literally made a rule to prevent EXACTLY what he was doing. Seems like writers didn’t know what to do with him and just screwed him over. L writing lol
I think the point of that oneshot was to show how nothing good will ever come from using the death note, even if you make a “perfect” plan the shinigami will personally intervene to make sure you don’t get a happy ending
@@ozzi9816 that's just a fantasy fairytale for little kids, maybe legal liability, wouldn't want to glorify killing people... but wait, minoru didn't kill anyone. What else would you espect from a social justice warrior with trump deragement syndrome. The author got butthurt from his own character so he killed him off.
I mean... come on guys, we all know in real life bad guys NEVER get away with their crimes... we live in a perfect utopia where the good guys always win... right?
@@llVIUwhat in the wah wah wah did I just read
Didn’t expect you to bless us up with a death note video but you provided. Awesome!
Near definitely used the death note. There is no way for them to steal Mikami's and duplicate it in less than a night. They simply didn't. They just gave him a random fake death note that wasn't pretending to be exactly as the one mikami had, and made him ignore that by writing something like "he follows the plan using the fake one, doesn't tell anyone about it and dies misteriously 10 days after". This also gives L more credit, because it was basically imposible to prove that Light was Kira without cheating.
that is a really good theory A GAME THEORY
@@hipopotamodata9932Funnily enough that is Matsuda's theory in the final manga chapter. And honestly, if Near actually used the notebook, then good for him. They had to get that prick Light and put an end to the 6 years of Kira's terror. If that had to be done by putting the name of X-Kira in the notebook, then that's a very small pricr to pay.
Near never used the Death Note, it is explained in the manga. Mello used it
@@bobbyboom9 yeah but near would get the curse of the death note unless he made someonle else write mikami name
Mikami would know that near used the book because of the eyes
the theory that near used the death note to control mikami is awesome! def gonna have to read the manga now. great vid!!
that theory was debunked
Not to ruin your fun but no, he didn't use it. It is a rule that you can't control someone with shinigami eyes. Before you mentioned it, misa controlled the mafia guy before he made the deal.
@@anna.owo.Gotta reply here, but you can control a user with shinigami eyes, the rule you’re referring to (#39) is translated in the English manga in a confusing way. The original Japanese text says “the lifespan visible by shinigami eyes is the original lifespan, one that is not affected/influenced by the death note in the human world. If the victim is killed using the death note, the remaining lifespan of that victim will be provided to the Shinigami” so the lack of influence refers to the fact that owning a death note/a death note existing in the human world can change a persons life span, and that the shinigami eyes won’t tell you that affected lifespan. You definitely can still control a human with Shinigami eyes.
Ohba confirmed Near "is a cheater". He definitely manipulated Mikami I remember thinking that after watching the last episode and especially after finishing the manga, its very L like and Near wanted to prove more than anything Light is Kira, which ironically Light could have used to his advantage by convincing the others of this if he had remained calm since he had three crucial points of information.
1-Near is desperate to prove Light is Kira at whatever cost
2-Near and the others could see Ryuk (meaning they touched the Death Note)
3-Mikami acted out of character act a critical moment
Had Light rationalized those three things he could've delayed everyone just long enough by convincing them of these things (even if untrue) and then wrote their names down since they were unaware he hid a piece of the note on him. Light's downfall was he never conceived he could lose (Ohba also stated he never doubted himself), had he accounted for that he may have won.
Arrogance is a killer 🤷🏾♀️😂
I still can't beleve they launched a Death Note on a fucking missle, and the characters and the show itself didn't seem to recognize how goofy that was.
Probably made it so it wouldn't explode tho
It was the best excuse at the time, you need to remember: death note was made at a time that wasn't even collective calls, the author had to create a whole machine just for the sake of all the characters in a scene could talk to each other and listen to everything. Drones were beyond possible in that era so a missile was the best explanation for something not driven by humans and at the same time was fast so it wouldn't be intercepted
I spend over 6 hours daily on CZcams watching all kind of videos, streams and listening to music and I can say, I had not legitimately enjoyed a video like this one in a very long time, good job! Subscribed.
Wow, that really means a lot! Thank you
are you unemployed?
@rohanofelvenpower5566 self employed.
what kind of junk you watchin lmao
@tamatebako_yt you probs wouldn't understand the videos I watch.
When Mikami wrote names in the Death Note, it wasn’t in a spirit of indifference like most others. That dude hated people so much that he wanted to delete them from existence.
What I find funny is how there were three Ls (L Lawliet, Light Yagami, Nate Rivers)
Each one gets defeated by a teenager
I think Near may have used it in the Manga, but not in the Anime. There weren't any clues or mention of the theory in the anime, but in the manga, it is very clear the author wants the audience to believe he may have used the death note.
Though it is not implied by any character in the anime, I still think that he did use the Death Note. I think that the plan he describes with them stealing and duplicating mikami's note is not possible. They can't just steal it from the bank, make an exact duplicate and return it back to the bank all in just a night. I mean, first of all, it was kept in the bank for a reason: security. And even if they were able to steal it, they would've never been able to make an exact copy in just a night. I mean, Mikami was literally using a microscope to check the authenticity of it.
I agree. That scene where they explained how that no nothing schmuck managed to make a perfect replica of a notebook that Mikami spent hours a day for months writing names into could just be copied perfectly in a single night had my eyes rolling to the back of my head.
Production pushback demanded that Light could not win in the end like Oba wanted so if the ending feels dissatisfying that's why.
@@justcommoncurtProduction? The trajectory of the story corner Light in there regardless of outside forces. The manga and the series were aware of that much, the author worked towards this result for the ending in the manga, didn't he not?
Not to mention that Ray, when he unknowingly killed his colleagues, doesn’t get to go to neither heaven nor hell for all eternity.
The answer is because noone goes in heaven or hell, there are not such things in the death note universe
@@anna.owo.Then why would they even write it down
@@ibroplatin4915in the anime heaven and hell do exist but death note users can’t go there and i think in the manga heaven and hell don’t exist and everyone goes to nothingness but im not sure I haven’t read it
As much as I love Minoru and A Kira story, I’d say a major con I see many leave out is the disastrous consequences that would follow
An economic crisis would come to two countries: America and Japan
What Minoru did was practically cause another Great Depression for America, with the loss of so much money that was owned by the country itself, and possibly the greatest inflation that would ever grace manoind, with each Japanese citizen gaining around the same amount of money, and it being so high would cause the value of it to dramatically decrease, similar to Germany’s economic depression. Unless Japan’s citizens solely bought outside the country itself and used it sparingly, as well as giving/spending money to America, an economic crisis is sure to follow
Overall, I still really enjoyed the manga and was actually to, somewhat, predict what his end goal was (I figured he was going to send it to a select group of people, causing the story to last longer (forgot it was a short story) and create a similar chase as the original series except also different) and the plan was indeed practically built near perfect
Honestly a shame how he ended up
I realize if I don’t mention it, I will get people saying “but they showed them being prosperous”
Well, while that is true, it wouldn’t last long when you realize, if the value stayed the same, there would be much more demand than possible
Imagine if everyone decided to buy to classic styled mustangs, there would be no time to make it, too little resources locally and too costly far away, and get inthe way of other things needed to be produced
It would also cause to things for the work environment: 1) no one would get anything done since they’re filthy rich; 2) it would make make it much more difficult to pay those that are working, since both employees and higher ups would have the same amount of money, even if they were already rich, to each other and not enough to give the workers that would equal the amount they worked for
Now, it was in Tokyo itself, yes, but even then it still would cause a disastrous affect around Japan, as every citizen there is filthy rich, the inflation rises there , resources are bought constantly outside of Tokyo, and cause the outer areas to work much harder, beyond capable
And the there is how it all affects the human element. Tokyo’s population, as mentioned, would likely stop working for a time and not be paid a fair amount of working, and the outer areas would likely revolt, due to lack of value they have, how much they must work, and being completely left out
Maybe dying while receiving the money was secretly a blessing in disguise, because now Japan is going to be in a depressive hell, along with the US.
Aa
Question ⁉️⁉️
That's true, and I think that even more importantly, Mikami sold the death note to the government. Luckily, this was stopped by the Shinigami King, but it would have been absolutely disastrous if the government of any country got their hands on it. Even Light's murder spree seems insignificant in comparison to the idea of a government in possession of a Death Note. There is no way he didn't think that through, so his "good intentions" can be called out here.
@@ari3903 "I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"
Transferring wealth doesn't cause inflation dude.
They did A-Kira mad dirty bro.
To be fair, Light himself outplayed Near right up until the end. It was someone else that caused Light's downfall, and then his own god complex.
Even though it wasn’t his fault that ending is fucking impossible 😭😭 I’m mad it ended that way death nite ended in episode 25
true so true
@@Clips_AA_7light should have won the writers gave a stupid ending 🤦♂️
Evil ass comment lmao@@脏
Great video! I always enjoy Death Note videos, especially ones like this that don't tread similar ground. I do have one issue though, if the king didn't want people to buy and sell Death Notes he could just render the note powerless, or perhaps since it's demonstrated that memory loss can occur if you come up with that idea it'll simply be erased from your mind. I guess it just wouldn't be Death Note w/o the death lol.
Taro was the best Kira tbh. He uses it as a kid, feels bad, and then fixes his mistake. Then when he's older he can watch everything else that happens when the Deathnote because more "main stream" I guess (btw i dont think the police suspected him because they quite literally said they all died of heart attacks and there was no chance he could've done it)
Light choosing Higuchi as Kira is probably the most underdiscussed aspect of his entire moral death spiral.
In retrospect, Light could’ve written Mastuda and Aizawa’s name on the sheet he keeps with him in the car on the way to meet with N as “insurance” allowing him the excuse to “flee for his life” and meet with Mikami who by then would’ve seen all the SPK members’ names and written them. If they gave pursuit, which they maybe would’ve, then Light and Mikami would’ve found out the notebook Mikami had is fake and then Light would just transcript the names from the fake notebook to a sheet he carries.
I honestly find the death eraser an interesting concept despite it taking away the whole concept of the death note
52:26 missed a chance to call him "lowercase L"
That’s genius tbf
I think Misa did the best out of all the death note owners. I believe she was the only one who got away with her crimes.
i think that was more of lights very good planning with the memory erasing shit more than her, because L got her dead to rights as kira like immediately after her whole taped stunt
Misa halfed her lifespan but still lived more than light dawg💀💀💀

PS: thank you for reading it if you did..
The only reason Naomi was to be killed off was the fact that am on meeting Light she figured out that Kira was on the bus, and she would have solved the case in 2 episodes. She was killed so that the show would not be 11 episodes long
"Partly because he's gay" made me giggle 💀
A-Kira didnt extend his kindness to the very being responsible for his wealth, and that's what cost him his life. Man, that's poetic. Love it.
Damn why is there no death note sequel with the A- Kira story yet!? It could be a money heist kind of cat and mouse chase, as he pulls off the biggest heist of the history
Well the only sequel that could happen after that storyline is one where Donald Trump is a protagonist. If that's the case count me in xD.
Did they ever do a handwriting analysis on the deathnote, especially in Light's case?
Pretty sure Light took out the pages he wrote on
@LegoAnimalCrossing Right...buy he wrote on so many...and also there may have possibly been indentation from writing on the other pages. I was just wondering lol
@@therecessionista6271the indentation wouldn't be major enough to actually get good results and there probably wouldn't be indentation except for people like Lind. L Tailor where light was going pretty hard on the pen because usually if you're writing a lot you're probably not pressing that hard
I hope they do another Deathnote series but with a separate timeline with a completely different user. Maybe even one even long before the timeline of the og Deathnote series.
That would be awesome
The dumbest thing about Misa not remembering L's name, is that L's real name was revealed in Vol. 13 as "L Lawliet". Like, OKAY if she doesn't remember his last name, but you'd think she'd at least remember enough to tell Light that it's 'L'!
Seems like a oversight by the writers, but maybe we can just assume that she's THAT dumb to not think that bit of info is important.
She also has no clue she's meeting L when she first meet Ryuzaki. sure, L is a weird name and would raise eyebrows, but there is no reason why she would think at that moment the name of this random dude has any kind of importance. And realistically, after a month of torture, losing your memory then regaining it again, I could imagine how the name of that one random guy that one day would be hard to recall
@@sebastienaguila2107 Yea but common... Even with your theory, 'L' is one letter. And the series even highlighted that she paid attention to his fake name. We can compare it to seeing a strange license plate; you'd remember if you met someone that pulled up in a car with "111111". And even if you don't remember the exact letter/number, you'd remember that it's just ONE of something, which would be a significant information to Light. Like, honestly, both of us is just making excuses for her lmao.
Don't get me wrong, Misa is my favourite character in the series, with me owning only the Vol. 4 single just because she's on the cover, but, yea the only canonical explanation for her not telling Light anything is that she's dumb.
I though dumbest thing is the whole manga 😂. Read it since released on weekly Jump.

I'm really excited for the musical album. I wonder how similar it is to the concept album as the cllips of the musical I've seen looks like they use the exact same songs. The only difference between the West End and Japanese one is the staging and actors.
What's your personal favorite song from the musical? I personally like 'Playing His Game' the most.
Same here I can’t wait! I’m sure it’ll be very similar to the original concept just with some cool additions (I’m thinking a choir might be involved in certain songs like “Kira” but that’s just a hunch based on certain stuff I saw)
@@canadacaden3266playing his game is easily one of the best for sure. The Game Begins is my personal fav
I feel like Mikami is the most slandered person in death note. I think some people have gotten gaslighted by Light into blaming Mikami for "making an unnecessary move". When Mikami and light spoke on the phone Light told Mikami ,"he could not move freely." Mikami understood that to mean that Light could no longer kill freely seeing as Kira gave Mikami a deathnote. Light could have during that phone call, during any of the meetings between him and Takada or asked Ryuk to tell Mikami correct hisself and told Mikami that he could kill a few people in an absolute pinch with the piece in his watch. Light did not tell Mikami this. Mikami Logicly assumed that of he didn't kill Takada then the piece of the deathnote she wrote Mello's name on could be discovered. So i would argue that Mikami's actions were VERY necessary if you look at the situation from an objective point of view. Light himself agreed it was necessary when he killed Takada in a car with two people who suspect him of being Kira.
If light and Mikami could have communicated without Takada them both writing her name down would have been discovered and the mistake could have been fixed. About Mikami not testing the notebook before coming to the meeting i prescribe to the theory that Near used to deathnote to control Mikami so I dont blame Mikami for that.
The second part of the manga-to-anime adaptation isn't as good as the first half. They leave out critically parts and it really loses a lot. Mikami is one of the victims.
Mikami is/ has been for a while, my favourite character and the hate he gets is really stupid, Light is so fucking vague with his "unnecessary moves" so it makes full sense that when Takada - the person who is literally the connection to X-Kira and L-Kira - is kidnapped he'd see it as a "shit, I have to get rid of her moment" Light legitimately does the exact same thing and since Mikami doesn't know that Light *could* kill still (the whole "kill for me charade" & "God cannot move freely") are clear pointers, if Light had been so great with foresight he should've at least said that he could deal with any *MAJOR* problems
It seems implied that shinigamis are not allowed to roam the human world freely. Cause I do not understand what is stoping Ryuk from simply going to grab apples on his own. Even in the series I was like “Go get you some apples. Why do you need Light for that?”
Amazing video!! Thanks for making it and adding all the details.
Thanks for watching :)
Light being gay is cannon at this point
Awesome video! But honestly anytime there’s a divine intervention in someone’s plans ( I’m talking about L and A Kira) that’s a AUTOMATIC 5 star
It's interesting to hear you say that, unlike C-Kira, Light could handle being called out by Near. When Near called out Light, he panicked and ended up being shot by Matsuda.
I'm not sure C-Kira actually created a new rule. He made the Shinigami King mad, yes, and there was a divine intervention, but his name was written by Ryuk. Therefore I propose that the Shinigami King ordered to intercept the deal by lying to the president and punish A-Kira for his plan...
ryuk explains that the users of his death notes will die by him writing their names in his notebook. this is shown at the end when light is already dying and ryuk still has to write his name. the rule still affected c-kira its just that ryuk was the shinigami who had to carry out the rule
I've always though something was off about Misa and that there was a deeper backstory for her, or it could just have been how she was written.
1) Her parents were murdered by a stalker(?) so who reported the murder and named the suspect.
- Then again, the IRL Japanese justice system seems 'Guilty till proven innocent', as a notable chunk of their prisoners are later found innocent. Even in other countries like America you get people who are sent to prison for DECADES and can later be proven innocent.
2) Also, it seems like she was modeling young and had a stalker(I assume from modeling) that was going to kill her. IDK why else a Shinigami who loved her would interfere and die from killing someone who was hurting another human.
- I think Misa's life was supposed to end there but that's my head cannon.
3) With her parents dead, who was taking care of Misa. I assume Misa was still underage/needed a guardian with her parents gone.
- Was it some relatives? or was Misa alone, and traumatized by her parent's death and nearly her own?
4) While Misa makes the Eye deal twice, she had the life spans of 2 shinigami... however does it seem like the numbers can change and not because of the passage of time?
- I don't think the life span numbers show WHEN they would die, just a time frame for a natural death. Assuming no murder, sickness, Natural disaster or self-deletion.
5) Misa gives me the impression that she is Codependent. Possibly her parents(mother) got her into modeling very young and did everything to make Misa look cute. I've noticed Misa is very short, then again not sure if it's just the art style.
- Misa being so small and saying sweet would make her fat, continuing to model and her clinging ness to Light. Maked her seem like she had been very dependent on her parents who treated her like a doll/money maker. With her parents gone she had not one to 'use' her. Thus she clung to Kira.
6) When she first appeared before Light, she said that she had taken care of a 'Freind' of hers that helped her make the tapes then never mentioned again. Probably killed.
- I think this 'friend' was a loner who had misa as their only a friend and was willing to do anything for her.
7) After the time skip, Misa is still with light and even tries to seduice him in a frilly pink thing that doesn't even catch his attention... yet the other men in the room react to seeing Misa in so little... Also misa's more adult wardrobe looked more Adult and less Lolita. Light telling her how to dress or is she trying to imtate the women she thinks Light likes.
- I mean seriously! The two MARRIED men gocked at her but light didn't even turn around! He's eather Gay or Asexual, my money is on Asexual.
2) she was supposed to die... that's exactly why the shinigami decided to intervene. he was in love with her and dreaded that day because he knew it was coming because of her lifespan that he could see. it's in the anime.
4) also explained in the anime. the lifespan indicates the real time of death, whatever the cause may be, not only natural causes. I'll redirect you to my point above, the Shinigami knew she was gonna die, even though she was meant to be murdered, because lifespan shows real time of death, whatever the cause including murder, sickness, natural distater or self deletion. the only cause of death that can't be seen ahead would actually be death by death note...
It is often better with supernatural stories not to look too deep into it. If you take a second to think about it, it's not very hard to shatter death note's plot into a million pieces, as too much makes strictly no sense.
lights may be asexual, but i think hes just preoccupied. after discovering the death note he becomes obsessed and cares about very little else
7) I'm pretty sure he looks down on her and viewed her as an interesting tool. A normal human would feel attraction but Light's pretty high up in the dark triad category and probably only pays attention to other individuals that he thinks can match him like L or Near.
Taro is by far my favourite use of the death note because you have to take into consideration that this guy actually was a child and that he had a greater understanding of the world than a literal super genius he even thought about using the death note to do with lighted but ultimately he decided against it because he knew that was in marvel he actually managed to live a full and meaningful life even though he both used and on the death note he even experience death itself it truly is magical by far my favourite user of the death note is the only person who boat used and owned the death note and yet he managed to live family good life and also not become a criminal they say that when you use the death note that there is something broken on you that your life is doomed to misery at the moment you writing that it’s gone and a piece of your humanity is gone you can never go back he was the one and only exception to this rule is the only person who ever wrote in the death note and still remained virtuous truly a chad
Light >>>>>>> all kiras
A-kira is the only person who didn't deserve to die, he was smart enough to get past Near ( most likely L too) and solved poverty in japan for those under the age of 60, he also used the death note without even using it, so that says alot .
Giving Mikami slack for potentially being controlled by Near using the deathnote, but not to poor Ray Penber who was pretty much certainly being controlled by Light using the death note.
This channel is surprisingly efficient with giving information. Maybe too efficient. The efficiency and professionalism of this channel reminds me of Kira. Kira would have made the exact same video if under pressure. I have no proof, but I'm sure I'm correct because I'm L.
0:25 is that trump 🔥🔥?
Actually yea it is
One of 4 things has happened to Misa after the end:
1. Near killed her with the Death Note out of pity or hatred
2. She's being held captive and monitored by the task force
3. She's living life alone and depressed unable to do shit about it
4. She relinquished ownership of the notebook, forgot about being Kira, and eventually stopped mourning Light and is living a normal life
For anyone wondering, she couldn't have killed herself. She recieved a quarter of the lifespan of 2 shinigami, meaning potentially thousands or even millions of years. There is literally NOTHING except a Death Note that can affect her lifespan. She can't kill herself with anything except the Death Note. And at the end of the series, she doesn't have access to one, since the Task Force knew she was the 2nd Kira and wouldn't let her anywhere near a notebook. So, she's either alive and doing something, or Near killed her. No other options. Even if she jumped off that ledge at the end of the anime, she would have survived. Poor Misa...
Why wouldn't she be able to kill herself? A longer lifespan doesn't mean you are invincible, just that you live significantly longer before dying of natural causes. If you could see the dates of someone's death floating over their head, you could still kill shoot someone who wasn't supposed to die for another 40 years.
I mean, unless they are Wolverine, but then again every story would be better with "...and then Wolverine showed up."
Maybe it's 3
-It was literally confirmed by the creator that she dies one year after light.
-Nowhere in the anime or manga does it say you cannot die if you have the additional lifespan of a shinigami. It just means you get that many extra years added to your potential lifespan.
-You are confusing being immortal with being invincible. Being invincible means you are immune to damage and cannot be killed by external factors. Being immortal means you don't age and cannot die of natural factors. To live forever with no threat of ever dying you need to be both immortal AND invincible. I know they are often treated as the same in anime and other forms of media but there is a very distinct difference. As such, Misa could still be killed.
-By your logic, if you have the shinigami eyes and can see when someone is going to die, that means that person could not be killed by a death note user because they have that many more years left to live.
-Being completely invincible is such an awful idea that it would ruin the entire point of the series.
@@andruism7 I literally said that the ONLY THING that can alter a lifespan is the death note. A person with shinigami eyes can still kill someone with the death note, because using the death note can end someone's life before their lifespan is over. She could not be killed by ANYTHING except a death note. And that's not to say she would be invincible to bullets or something, it means she straight up won't get into a situation where she dies. She won't kill herself, and noone else will kill her. Simple as that. Unless someone used a death note on her, she's staying alive as long as the lifespan says so.
And no, it's not a "potential" lifespan. It's the definitive lifespan. Nothing can affect it. Nothing, EXCEPT A DEATH NOTE. A shinigami or a human with a Death Note could kill her. Nothing else could though.
@@theoverseer1775 And yet, somehow, she dies a year after Light. You don't want her to die, so you are coming up with all sorts of reasons for her not to. The creator confirmed it. The end. If you keep arguing this then you are just in denial.
Matsuda: Misa will be executed.
Rem: Pardon me, where are the restrooms ?
Finally, you've made a Death Note explaining video. And I definitely agree with you about all its characters deserved their rightful rates. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯
Man, this reminded me how far the story jumped the shark after L lost. 😂😂😂
Oh thank you for that theory at the end. Through the rules of the death note they showed us how smart Near was instead of telling us. Wow! 🤔That makes me want to rewatch.
I think there was a movie were Matsuda had the Death Note and was Kira for a while.
Light and Armin would be an unstoppable duo
They should make a prequel or sequel to death note 🤩.
They did and he talks about it in the video
Yeah, it’s the one with Trump as one of the main characters
@@MrDanno Lemme guess, they made Trump a super villain?
@@deathbymazdanah he's just as retarded as his real life counterpart
@deathbymazda Actually no, they treat him as they would any US President in that story. It's pretty solid, you should give it a read
A-Kira was the best deathnote user. It's fucking hilarious that the shinigami king had to add new rule.
i just wanted to say i really appreciate you reading this all. it explains a lot of the questions to my head.
the rule is specifically to not kill a human to extend the life of another human you love
First oh and btw awesome vid turtle quirk
Thanks man, I’m glad with how it turned out!
Omg
Your vids have been really cool and interesting especially your Aot vids
The theories are superb
A-Kira was probably my favourite just because its so tragic how he didnt use the book to kill anyone and somehow hes the only guy to get killed
I dont like the Taro and Miura story. It violates everything in the anime if there was a previous user and the police were aware of it in the past. Plus if it was a popular franchise
Misa def needs to be ranked higher
It's funny how the reason Light lost is simply because he wanted to kill L. If he didn't kill Lind L Taylor or the FBI agents L would have no idea about who he was and many more people would support Kira and Light would continue doing what he did.
I think nobody could have seen the thing with Minoru coming. It was unprecedented after all, in multiple ways.
A Kira had the perfect plan the only that stopped him was his over confidence in it
The Mikami thing was an asspull anyway because they try to gaslight you into believing that Gevanni alone took only a night to copy all of or a significant amount of the Death Note with the EXACT SAME WAY the names were put in. So this could just be considered logic at all if the Death Note allows the aforementioned cheat
Wait was Light actually gay? That just makes the Misa thing so much funnier 😆
More like a sexual tbh
I mean, Yagami is Im a gay backwards
@@THEDEADDaleit was right there in front of us the whole time
Light was too busy trying to transcend the boundaries of the mortal world and become the God of the new world. Hence, he didn’t care about earthly concepts of being gay or straight. However, in reality he was just a sociopath who wore the cloak of whomever he needed to be at that particular moment. L has a quote about the types of monsters in society and I think Light perfectly fits that analogy.
Nope
I like to head cannon the idea that Taro story is in the real world and the events of the manga that was written in universe is the story of light.
27:41 "Hey Light, what's Yagami backwards?"
I’m crying not you just casually calling light gay and moving on like nothing happened 😭
So, A-Kira died because of a rule, he didnt know? and that wasnt explained to him?
Thats a cop out.
That's kinda the point. A-Kira tried to cheat the system, and got screwed by forces he couldn't control.
The rule was made after the fact, since the Shinigami King wants humans to *use* the Death Note to kill humans.
Ryuk told Donald Trump of the new rule, and even admitted it was last minute.
This video was freaking amazing
