What did he do again apart from being shot?

if light was so fucking smart why did he die?

1) Fell for Lind L Tailor trap due to his narcissism
2) Created a pattern with his killings
3) Used his father's database

The story basically is Light trying to fix all his mistakes from the first 3 episodes.

Was the "user can't go neither to hell or heaven" rule really necessary?

Kinda contradicts the idea that everyone who uses the death note can become a monster cause they're shown to be insane just by using it instead of how the person uses it.

you become a shinigami

because the story needed him to so it could conclude

That wasn't really my point.

I'm 100% convinced that if i were to recieve the death note with all the information i know of i would never be able to get caught even though i would still kill atleast multiple people a day.

How?
>Don't create a pattern
>Don't look up the victims through the internet because that would be the an easy hint for the authorities
>Don't kill people who know me
>Throwing out red herrings once in a while to trick the authorities by creating fake patterns
>Don't fall for obvious bait

He fucked Mello.

you're just a god of death, gods do stupid shit regardless of morals.
it's the morals of your own choosing

It's impossible to get caught if you don't try to profit from it and remain solo. Every single intelligence agency in the world combined can't carch some one who simply kills, and doesn't brag about it or try to be there in person to profit/observe.

The biggest enemy will be yourself when using the death note. If you can manage to control your emotions and think everything through you are invinsible.

Light is on the right side you blind idiot.

Exactly, no one would ever make the jump into the super natural. It will all be organizations/countries/agencies trying to place the blame on each other if you kill every single leader in the world. By the time supernatural methods would even start being consdiered as the cause of death, people in power to do anything about it would be too busy in their power struggles to give a shit about figuring out the cause of death. People could literally just decide it was an act of god. Light was just a retarded high schooler who wanted to play god in his own little world, had he not exclusively killed from the area surrounding him, and then gave them concrete proof that he can kill by some supernatural means, he would never have gotten caught.

I would start by taking out major players on the world stage just to see how they would react. Just like Kira i will made the heart attack my trademark so i can use other methods of murder to kill other inconspiciously.

Light's methods killed innocents and he relied on other people to provide information about criminals that he would kill. It wouldn't be hard for a shadow group of any world government to use media and the justice system to their advantage to have Light kill whoever they felt like killing. The longer things went on the easier it would be for the world to know how to counter the Death Note and crime would be back on the rise anyway. He wasn't a god of any sort, just a smart kid with a powerful tool. Someone was always going to take him down and restore order.

If he didn't made the stupid mistakes he made at the beginning of the show he could have kept it up untill his death.

L most certainly was not in the wrong, because Kira could have used his power to do more than just kill criminals once he established enough power. Even if Light’s killing of criminals was a good thing, Kira’s existence was still a threat and L understood that.

I'd be willing to say Light was right if he wasnt a god tier narcissist

It's also incredibly naïve to believe that 1 person has the correct judgement to justify him having those superpowers.

That's the problem. There is no perfect candidate for a book that can kill everyone.

>It's also incredibly naïve to believe that 1 person has the correct judgement to justify him having those superpowers.
What are you saying here

That the death note by nature shouldn't belong to anyone because no one is perfect enough to use it properly.

I think L could have used it properly. Keep it as a secret and only eliminate criminals when you absolutely have to, like the hostage situation in the first episode. You could even make them confess their partners in crime before killing them.

That would go against L's ethics, so he wouldn't use it.

It’s no different than killing a criminal by trial.

If you watch the show then you know that L believes in the current justice system and sees the power Kira posseses as a threat and doesn't want anything to do with it.

L. fuck the legal system, shoulda used the deathnote to kill the guys running it

>"user can't go neither to hell or heaven"
>you become a shinigami
The rule states:

>"The human who uses this note can neither go to Heaven nor Hell."

Which, along with the words Ryuk used to reveal that information to Light, are made to purposely mislead the reader into thinking Light has a special "after death" condition after becoming a Death Note user.
But we discover, by the end of the series, that the real meaning is the complete opposite.

>All humans will, without exception, eventually die.
>After they die, the place they go is MU. (Nothingness)
>Once dead, they can never come back to life.

In other words, a Death Note user does not gain a special "after death" condition, just like any human they will go to the Nothingness, in other words they will cease to exist.

Sadly that's not confirmed.

source: my ass

>not confirmed
Manga Chapter 107, pages 13 to 15

Then is that heaven or hell line just a red herring?

Ah i see. You're completely right.

L wasn't wrong.

>But which one is in your view the MOST right?
L because Light failed to raise a successor.
Meaning as soon as he is gone crime will not only go back up again but crime will get even worse because now law enforcement is shit now. Probably quite a few prisons who had to be closed down as well.

>That bonus chapter that attempts to play Light up as some kind of badass ubermensch for actually using the death note by giving some random loser the death note and having him get called out like "Lol ur a loser" on national television
>He kills himself just like that

Was this a literal middle finger to the audience complaining about the writing?

Then just kill them by goddamn trial

I'm not sure if it can be considered a red herring... I know it is a quibble, as the phrase is not giving any false information, but it is phrased in a way to mislead you

Fuck
Marry
Kill

Which one?

>Some faggot
OR
>Shin sekai no kami
hmmm tough choice

Light still needed good detectives and police to give him the names of all the people to kill.

I doubt that, but I'm speaking more on the inevitability of Light's abilities failing to get him what he wants. I never liked him or his extremist views.

Light's grand plan was to just clean up Gotham City.

>1) Fell for Lind L Tailor trap due to his narcissism
Even I knew that was a bad idea.

So what did you guys think of the Netflix adaptation?

Death Note was overrated trash.

>L believes in the current justice system and sees the power Kira posseses as a threat and doesn't want anything to do with it
source: your ass. L says that the reason he wants to stop kira is not because of morals, but because he wanted to solve the mystery. he was just playing detective. it was purely for ego.

I definitely agree. It's basically a teen's "What if I was god?" fantasy. But it was at least fun to see various keikaku play out.

Honestly I feel like L's role in the story jumped the shark immediately. He's introduced, and in about 5 seconds he goes "It's Light Yagami." Then he spends the time up 'til his death like "O MY 0.01 PERCENT CHANCE." Like, fuck nigger, you're literally just waiting for him to fuck up when you know it's him already for sure.

>when you know it's him already for sure
Was he ever sure?
