He fucking lost

This.
The credits should've rolled right after the funeral.

Because MUH HAPPY ENDING WE CANT HAVE THE VILLAIN WIN

Because when you put the world against you, the world will eventually always win.

but he's not a villain

His ideals were considered evil so he was made into the villain of his own story.

He didn't.

first post is correct, as usual

Light made the mistake of not killing all the task force when Rem went rogue. With Rem gone he could've easily pinned all the murders on Misa who obviously wouldn't kill Light but would kill the rest of the task force to help Kira. Light could be the one who captures her even and close the case in Japan. After that wait a few months and start killing people again but this time without a pattern that would link Japan to the killings. With the case closed in Japan, no one would force Light to enter the investigation team again and having lost a father to Kira would be all the excuse he needed to back out from pursuin Kira forever. Since L's data was deleted, the whole case against Light would be gone.

So the answer is he lost because he was retarded

Brainlets

Pic related managed to completely copy Mikami's Death Note, all the handwriting, ink-spills & fingerprints, in a single night.

In all likelihood, Near had Mikami's name written so he'd go full retard.

Heck, he shouldn't have killed Lind L Taylor while he identified himself as law enforcement. Light shouldn't have killed cops unless the cops are crooked.

Because God hates fags

It's been years since I read this, but previous to the very last confrontation, doesn't he also have the names of everyone on Near's team (minus Near himself), as well as the support of governments worldwide?

He could have just killed his own task force plus Near's and that would have been that. Near would have been completely certain he was Kira, but so what? The police was no longer after him, and without actual operational capability, Near would be powerless to do anything.

Because the author or editors willed it.

So? You know that there are people in real life who can pull that shit off , right? Google photographic memory

He had a sophomoric conception of Justice. His own philosophical naivete made his demise an inevitability.

I mean OP, the whole point of the last few chapter is to show that Light was little shit and couldn't deal with the consecuences of his actions, he tremble in fear, cry and then begs for Ryuk help like any common human

Copying is one thing. Copying to exact detail both the handwriting and every dog-eared, scuffed, unique page is another thing entirely. DID IT IN A NIGHT is unreasonable because it's a huge undertaking of forgery, not because he wrote a lot.

Nah realistically anyone with half a brain could have won with the Death Note. Light made one serious mistake, letting L know he was in Japan, but despite being one of the top students in Japan and being perfectly fluent in English, he decided to stay in Japan. If Light had just gone to Harvard or Oxford, L would have never gotten close to him. He deliberately told L who he was and where he was. It's the classic case of the serial killer who wants to get caught.

Light was obsessed with the idea of a "perfect victory" where he gets to play hero cop investigating Kira while still being Kira. If he was pragmatic, Near would have never even had the chance to be involved. Light wanted that showdown in the warehouse because he wanted to say "I win!" before winning. Same as with the Naomi Misora situation where he just had to say "I'm Kira" before killing her.

>have completely anonymous, untraceable, unprovable, infinitely reusable, global range instant murder tool
>gets singled out and jailed for it in like 3 months

I don't remember well, but did he have the option of not using that dude?

Mikami is a hack

He was very dedicated.

This, editors and authors don't have the balls to end a fictional work with the villain winning, unless they plan a sequel where they lose eventually.

fpbp

Yes, but he got complacent over the years since L died and basically got two lackeys (the bullied accountant dude and the newscaster bitch) to do the Kira work for him.

It was Misa's fault. Without her non-sense of sending physical evidence to Sakura TV, or rather without her very existence, Light would always have the failsafe of the self-immolation device, with the only danger to him being the few slips he had with him (and only if L's side even had an inkling what it was, though them being able to see Ryuk would be dagerous to Light as well), unless L went crazy and just forcefully jailed him regardless of Light's father's will.

Pride

>There people on this thread that actually believe Light was right

Based.

I understood that reference

Amazing how things like this happens

writer got lazy and didn't come up with a satisfying ending.

Because Light is an overconfident egomaniac which is why he makes multiple sloppy mistakes, starting with killing the Lind L. Taylor convict-pretending-to-be-L guy.

>global range instant murder tool
Not instant, 40 seconds to activate.

Because by winning against L author have created moral dilemma for himself, Light was wrong and everybody, including him creator, knew that, so he had to come up with something in order to cover up mistakes and to make Kira to look like pathetic loser at the end, dying in the most miserable way possible. Death note never needed it's "second half", it should've ended with L's death.

>Since L's data was deleted, the whole case against Light would be gone.
L's death sent a copy of the data to Near and Mello though, so he would have wound up fucked even harder by them if he'd done that.

Yeah , i can

...why did he not just leave Japan and do the killings from outside the country? All he had to do was go on a vacation(or study abroad) after he notes down all the important names from the police database in a separate notebook.

I don't get why we don't get any decent stories from Antagonists pov. I'm not a moral fag. I just need a good story from the other side for once, i relate more and more with Garo from OPM. The bad guys keep winning

Why didn't Light -- after killing L -- begin phasing out the detectives in favor for a more subservient crew?

It felt like that was one of the contributing reasons why Light ultimately failed. He kept around all the old ass holes who put their life for the case, and eventually one of them started getting suspicious.
