@@overanalyzinganimeit hasn't been that long actually tbh, 1 month ago for the last video and 2 for the last death note video. Considering the research that goes into those, plus scripting, recording, editing, etc, plus time where you're not working on the video for food, work, and also spending time with other people, I'm just grateful you're uploading these at all! I've been working on and off on a less than 10 minute video for almost a year and I'm barely even close to done, so I respect you 1000%. Keep going dude you're doing great.
A detail that I thought I might point out: The puzzle near is playing with symbolizes the kira case as a whole. It only having a few pieces left, shows how L was not that far from solving the case. When we see near dumping it out, it’s a visual representation of how he has to completely start from scratch due to all the data being deleted. To add him finishing it in a quick manner symbolizes, how quickly he solves it
another part of that: the puzzle is entirely white/blank because at the core there is no information, all the informations L got on kira where from lights mistakes, there is no murder weapon, no dna, no fingerprints or hairs next to the victim, realistically speaking there is no evidence and no information, all the information available is based on lights ego, so in other words L almost solved a case that is (in theory) unsolveable similiar to a blank puzzle which IS solveable but obviously alot harder
@@vhaelen326I don’t think Near ever planned on trying to convict Light using evidence traditionally. At that point, if Near were to say someone was Kira 100% and had evidence like THE NOTEBOOK, Then they’d either kill him or secretly imprison him. Witnesses are evidence in a court of law anyways.
@@gowiththeflow363 i never said it represented nears plan, im just saying that the virtually blank puzzle could also represent the kira case in other means namely that there is no evidence, and no witnesses in the technical sense i mean there is Light as a witness but he isnt gonna rat himself out, and ryuk but he isnt gonna snitch either and even if he would that would spark the question if non humans CAN be witnesses? oh and also good luck finding a judge willing to prosecute this trial, i mean who has jurisdiction anyways? japan? well Light did commit the murders in japan but the victims died all over the world, also is it even against the law to write names in a note book? but im getting away from my point: my point wasnt "near CHOSE this puzzle because HE thought it represented the kira case" my point was "the animators chose this puzzle because it represents the kira case"
@@overanalyzinganimeall good lmao your vids have gotten so entertaining and packed with analysis so it’s worth it! I’m excited for you to get to Mikami, he’s definitely my favorite aspect of the second half of death note
dude was my favorite character when I was a kid. lol. I loved the whole "delete" thing; and my ass was so cringe back in Junior High that I had "delete. delete. delete" as my 'quote' for my MySpace page. lmao.
8:14 I think it also says a lot about Near as a person. To just "give up" on the completed puzzle to just do it again shows a level of detachment. He does not hang puzzles around to say that he completed them, he just does it again. It's more about the journey, the "thrill"
In being more guitar dominant, Melo's theme becomes more reminiscent of Light's, speaking to their shared short tempers. He's a really good embodiment of what Light and L had in common.
Mello embodies the Ryuga side of L. Being that Bold Risk taker who would catch enemies off guard in the most unexpected ways. Near is the Ryuzaki aspect un being a great analyzer and being able to decipher the truth with the evidence he's been given
Funny thing is, Misa is 19 at the point of her being taken in as the 2nd Kira. Her manga birthdate is 12/25/1984--yes, Christmas 1984, and I'm as shocked as you probably are. At any rate, she's a year older than Light.
i'm so happy to finally find a video talking about Near and Mello that don't just throw a bunch of hate to them (especially Near) and point out how they're basically like parts of L divided into two people.
They're both fantastic characters. Shame the plot doesn't give either much chance to shine. 12 episodes just wasn't enough. It doesn't help that Near is compared to L so heavily and often either. It's also annoying that Light never meets Mello and only meets Near by the very end. It makes sense to be cautious, of course, but the 1:1 interactions between L and Light were amazing. Those were dearly missed in the second half.
Problem with Near is he just knows everything and people believe him about Light being Kira, has the power of the avatar state, doesn't take the risks L did and is ultimately the one who beats Light by the power of BS.
@@Leonard_Wolf_2056 1). The only thing you can say about him "knowing everything" is when he was able to deduce Mikami out of the moniters. And that itself is an ability that is unique to top Whammy's house members, not just Near as stated by the author. 2). Near isn't L we already knew that from the beginning, it's just a flaw in his job as a detective similar to how Mellow's flaw as a detective is his emotions getting to the better of him and how L's pride and ego is his. These aren't valid reasons as to why he's a "bad character" as most would say. 3). Near winning isn't "BS" it was stated that it was thanks to Mellow's interference that the SPK was able to find out about the fake Notebook. Mellow was able to deduce that his plan would eventually lead to the arrest of Kira due to all the information he was able to get from Lidner. By indirectly working together the two successors of L were able to beat Kira in the cat and mouse game. If you wanna say it was "BS because he got lucky" then don't forget about the time Light almost got caught before he even met L due to Naomi being at the Police station the exact same time Light was.
Honestly, I love Near and Mellow, I also was sad when L died but the moment I accepted it when I first watched this series was the scene where you see the chains around Light with L in the background. I was like, "Oh shit, L is still alive in a sense and Kira is fucked."
Fun fact: Near’s “N” logo contains all the letters of his real name, Nate, in its design. The “N” is… well obviously there. There’s two “A”s, one being upside down, made by the lines connecting the vertical and diagonal lines. The “T” is the right line. The “E” is backwards and makes up the left line. I like how each letter gets progressively harder to find.
That’s actually really interesting! Thanks for sharing this because I had never hear of it before. Also, just saw your Reddit post about this fact. At least, I hope it’s you and someone didn’t steal this awesome comment.
thats a fun fact even thought its probably not intentional, i imagine they just picked old looking fonts that looked nice (N in L's font is barely recongizeable as an N)
There's actually a funny story as to why Mello's name doesn't quite match his fiery personality. Due to an error in the naming process, Near and Mello had their names swapped, with Obata (the artist for the manga) only realizing their names swapped when it was too late. They decided not to go back and put the names back in the right place, so now Mello is the fiery one that's breathing down Light's neck and Near is the calm one.
@@ninjaguyYTthe opposites being: Mello is named “Mellow” despite being fiery, fierce, very aggressively active. He has no chill and is a force of chaotic justice, being very unpleasant and rough in personality and actions. Aka, “Harsh”. Near is named “Near” despite his methods keeping him as distanced from the criminals and events as possible, taking a passive and methodical approach to prepare (using subordinates to conduct meetings and investigations). Aka, “Far”.
@@ninjaguyYTWith Near and Mello, the symbolism works either way Near (with Mello's personality) would have been the danger that was "drawing near" While Mello (with Near's personality) is, well, mellow. But as they played out in canon; Near is the one who was the nearest to being a replacement for L, while Mello was nearly nothing like L, and thus his attempts were "mellow attempts"
In the English edition of the manga, the guy Light kills in episode 1 was written as "traffic accident," so it's not just "accidental death" but something more specific that allows it to be within the 6 minutes and 40 seconds without specifying a time of death. I don't know about the original Japanese though, but I feel like this is consistent with the rule.
As fo why the Mafia Bosses survived Kira/Light, it is probably because their appearance and names aren't publicly known, especially when people know that there's a death god killing criminals
I remember some anecdote that if you accidentally misspell somebody's name 4 times with the death note (has to be an accident, no cheating), you get rendered immune. Light accidentally does this some some Russian Mafiya guy, because he isn't good at Russian. Could be the same guy?
@@gowiththeflow363 I can't give any more information, I'm afraid, though I'm pretty sure you could find what I'm talking about if you look up the rules of the death note.
@@Dynamesmouse exactly, it's a rule the show has yet to expose for us. Plus yeah, it has to be accidental or you die for the intentional screw up. Although I don't know which Shinigami knows that rule, maybe the guy directly under the Shinigami King. Of course they are all allowed to read the official book rules that he has whenever they want but I assume most of them don't care enough to do so.
The accidental death thing might be another one of the weird quirks lost in translation, the Japanese seems to imply it is "within 6 minutes and 40 seconds." This is another case of just the creators having some roughness with their English and we are very fortunate to have the original Japanese directly on-screen. To be specific, the Japanese phrase is, "これから6文４０秒以降、最短で不自然でない事故に遭い、死亡する。” which is something along the lines of, "Afterwards, within the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds, the most immediate accident that will result in death will occur." For how the Death Note functions I think this does make sense - if someone is on a busy road then an accident can occur very quickly but if it's someone, like, in a warehouse then it might take a little longer but the Note could result in an accident to cause a death. But it makes sense that if there is no reasonable way for someone to die of an accident within 6.40 then it would default to heart attack like the guy targeted by Yotsuba who was written to have an accident at a specific location.
Glad to see comments like these. When analyzing something that has been written in multiple languages, it's always best to find the literal meaning and the actual meaning so you can fully understand. Not all languages have a 1:1 translation, you would need to use a bit more brain power to understand what they really mean. This isn't to speak badly about the homie, just commenting on languages cuz I see these patterns a lot.
I didn’t get this recommended. I’m glad I searched for your channel again, please continue this series… we’ll keep watching even if it takes a long time to make
damn, that's dedication. lol. meanwhile I haven't actually rewatched the series since I started doing these videos. so it's been over two years, which is the longest I've gone without watching it. I'm ready for these later episodes! lol.
I’m saying I haven’t, like, binged the series from start to finish. I write the script as I watch the episode, so I’m watching an episode whenever it’s time to watch a script, and maybe sometimes jumping around to other episodes while writing. But I haven’t started from Episode 1 and watched all the way through until Episode 37 since at least 2021.
Something not alot of people notice or talk about are Near's darts throws. I challenge everyone who watches or reads death note to pay attention to them. Like the Dart throw in this episode. Near when throwing out his idea hits the number 7 which is seen as a good number. But the dart doesnt hit the board or stick to the number 7 because while his idea is good its slighty off. Its off because Kira doesnt "get his information from the Japanese police" Kira is a member of the Japanese police.
dude i have to say, your observations have improved the show so much for me, youre doing overanalyzing so fkn well its insane. thank you for taking the time to make these videos for us and please know that your efforts are greatly appreciated.
35:55 I’m pretty sure pilots have died while in flight with passengers before without the plane ever crashing due to passengers (untrained in aviation) accessing the radio in the cockpit and receiving instructions to land the plane. So, in this scenario of the pilot being killed i’m sure that the passengers would figure something out.
Oh shit, so the notebook would probably scan the plane for a suitable backup pilot and if there is one, death is immediate for the actual pilot, if not then it waits until it's safe for the person to drop dead.
32:00 Criminals are probably actively hiding from Kira. 5 years is long enough for people to have risen through the Mafia ranks after Kira became popular. I bet you no criminal in this world uses their real name for anything anymore, and they'll be very wary of having photos and videos of them out there. Even something as simple as always wearing a mask when you're outdoors would make you Kira-proof.
20:11 There actually is. So in the death note manga data book there are these short, 4-panels stories, of Light, Misa and Ryuk living together. But they have a more comedy tone to them.
To me, both Near and Mello and their plots were 100x better in the Manga, especially Near, and I'm glad to find a video who doesn't just insult them both and instead actually analyse them as characters. I will forever be annoyed that they removed the whole 'manipulating the American president' plot between the two and Near kidnapping Mogi and pretending Kira killed him.
I think the weird rule kind of proves my thoughts on how accidental death works. It doesn't take 6 minutes, the Death note spends between 1 second and 6 minutes to determine whether the 'cause of death requested is possible and arranging it to happen. If it determines the 'cause of death is impossible (no cars around for a car accident for instance), than it just defaults to the heart attack death which takes 40 seconds. Ergo why it takes 6 minutes and 40 seconds for the death to happen. So the truck one at the start, the truck was already nearby, so only took 40 seconds to have it come over and crash into the guy. The Police Officer was driving past cars, plenty of candidates for accidental death there, so took less than 40 seconds. That seems to cover up the discrepancies pretty well.
I think that if a pilot's name was written in the death note while that pilot was piloting a commercial airplane, he would die, but either his copilot or the autopilot would take over. The Pilot's corpse would be put in some corner until the plane lands, and nobody else is hurt. If the plane is in some stage of the flight that requires human input that is (most of the flight is handled by the autopilot). It could even be that the pilot in question tells the copilot to take over because he's not feeling well, just to avoid endangering the passengers and other staff. Remember that suicide is viewed as plausible for all humans, so the simple act of asking for help, which cooperation is the main quality of humanity that has helped them survive and prosper as a species, shouldn't be implausible for any pilot.
The Larry/Rally error is a translation thing. Since japanese pronounce L as R, they translated the name Larry into "Rari". Its an animation error, since the right translation was Larry but the animators probably mixed up the placements of L and R.
I don't know why, but Near always seemed better in the manga than the anime, something about his introduction and the way he conducted his investigation kept the mystique (for lack of a better word) alive.
plus the manga also showed his thought process better. in the anime there's scenes where it seems like he just gets information from nothing, like he's a psychic or something, while in the manga it's shown what information he got from where and how he applied them to come to a conclusion. Reminds me of how Sherlock Holmes in the Arthur Conan Doyle books comes to conclusions by applying logic to information that the reader is also given, while in the BBC show Sherlock the information is hidden from the viewer until after Sherlock says his conclusion. One seems like the investigator is really smart and lets the audience also have a crack at solving the mystery (except in DN we know who's Kira from episode one) while the other seems like lazy writers making shit up to make the plot work and make the character seem way smarter than the writers are
The anime cut out a lot. There are 108 chapters of Death Note and L died on Chapter 58. The last 12 episodes of the anime adapt nearly as many chapters as the first 25 episodes did. Do keep in mind though that Death Note came out as 1 long run of 37 episodes as a single season, which started after the manga ended. So they likely planned to rush the later half of the manga from the start after seeing the negative reception to that part of the story.
My guess on why the director of the NPA only gave out the names he did, is because those are the people already known o be working on the Kira case by the police. The director probably knew Kira had some sort of ties with the police force, so most likely Kira would know of those members, and since Kira hasn't killed them they should be safe. The other ones, on the other hand, are new or have come back, and considering how much power Kira has, the director wants to keep it all as secret as possible, and as such, only gives the names of the previously known active task force
I think matsuda calling her pretty was more of an awkward compliment. I don't think he meant as anything by it. Just trying to compliment her for growing up into a beautiful young woman without being attracted to her. As for the mafia, it's likely either that there's not enough evidence they actually are mafia, or power vacuum, that he doesn't want to cause gang wars to escalate due to everyone wanting to be the boss and thus causing a bunch of good people to die
You have a point about Matsuda just trying to compliment her on her looks until you remember that he followed up by talking about how he wasn't able to ask her out or tell her how he felt.
hey so i found something out recently remeber how watari delted all the files and then somehow light manged to get them all back? apparently deathnote was suposed to end when L died but the producers saw how good the show was doing and forced Tsugumi Ohba to countie it which is why alot of staff in the "second part" of death note not make scene like how light got the files back or *SPIOLERS A HEAD* how Nears task force mange to break into a bank and leave 0 evidance and then replacate 2 DEATH NOTES in a perfect way even though SO MANY names were wirrten on it and thats after Mikami checks the death note every day with a microscope to make sure it hasent been tempared with
Interesting. I'd always heard that he wanted to do 108 chapters for the symbolism. It definitely makes sense, because a lot feels off about the latter half compared to the first half.
The book came out first, and a lot of information within the second part of the series was cut out due to the limited amount of episodes. So that's why the quality dips in the show. Not the fault of the writer
after rewatching this vid again and coming to the part where you mention how impressive it is for near to figure out all this info on his in, even if it took longer. But then i began thinking remembering how L told watari to delete all the data if something where to happen to him which did happen. so that all leaves me here thinking that; since L loves testing people so much maybe he set that up with a thought of being one final test to the next successor, in this case near and mellow, to see if one or both can figure out as much as he did on their own or together which near ultimately did and mellow too but probably not as quickly. idk just some food for thought. its L so i cant really tell what he's ever planning till he explains it.
30:35 The reason why his deduction is impressive is because he didn't have connections to the police while near did, making it much harder to gather information than near. Near would've easily be able to find out who was at the Higuchi incident while Mello would've had a much harder time finding out what a Death note even was.
Love the little fact about Near/Mello’s theme. Death Note has my favorite anime soundtrack and I love seeing it get the love it deserves. Also, I started watching and finished Code Geass thanks to your channel. Great series as well!
I think... Ryuk laughing "things are starting to get interesting" is also a symbol? Of light being bored again and excited coming back He loves his sister i dont doubt... His love for his Sister and Father is what makes this even possible Cause Unless theres a risk of losing something the thrill isnt there with a thrill the success is just that much more satisfying
Worth noting that image boards were a thing and well known. Futaba channel, or 2 chan had been a thing for 2 years by the point Death Note released, and that worked with the internet of the time, images and all. Add in those kira fan pages you see Light look at in episode 2, and you get a fairly time accurate representation of what is going on social media wise at the time. Still kinda funny to think that Light is basically having to force himself to look at 4 chan to get criminal information though.
If Light was having to deal with a troll nest site on a repeat basis to get his stuff going, I can see why he's irritated well before Near and Mello start giving him fits. Having to rely on scummy people to get rid of scummy people, when the site itself is absolutely dubious anyway, so Light would have to spike his double-checking frequency to make sure Kira is still credible and it would burn him out. Yikes.
"alright chill Leo" and "I've never seen a facial expression that screamed 'f*ck that' quite a loudly as his is right here" properly made me laugh out loud!
As far as the causing no other deaths rule, this likely is context sensitive. The Death Note, for a lack of better terms, has an effect on fate. So if say, a pilot's name was written where they should die mid flight, I could see the notebook basically responding based on the situation. Can the plane just crash safely? Is there a copilot or someone else who is able to take over? Does the plane have any passengers in the first place? WHERE is the plane when the pilot would normally die? If basically every single one of those questions came up something that would cause more death, the death would be delayed, however if there was a way to arrange things such that the death could happen mid air and everyone not written survives, then that pilot is going to die mid flight. This might sound insane, but at the end of the day, we're talking about an object that is for all intents and purposes, divine. Causality means nothing to it compared to the hard coded rules of it's function. Also, with regards to the accident clause and it's nonsensical timing, all those can effectively be explained. The episode 1 accident was specified as a traffic accident, not just an accident. This could be enough for the workings of the death note to not trigger the generic accident 6+ min rule. The Higuchi accident notably has the same sound effect that triggers when someone has a heart attack (something that didn't play for say, Naomi), so while it did seem to be a generic accident (rather than traffic accident), I suspect that the only accidents within that timeframe would result in other deaths. Given that the cop also died while calling for backup, it might be related to the cop having an accident when other cops start entering hot pursuit creating a situation where others would die. So the heart attack replacement happened, and he had a heart attack in the minimum time, and his corpse crashed a bike into the back of a truck in what still appeared to be an accident to an outside view. And yeah, the bus jacker accident was also not only a specific accident, but a highly specific one with a specified time, and also a time well past that 6+ min mark, so that rule wouldn't matter there.
In the pilot scenario, my guess is the pilot would feel a sudden need to use the lavatory and then suffer the heart attack there while the co-pilot has the stick. Commercial aircraft have both a pilot and a co-pilot for a reason, while especially long flights tend to have a third man in the cockpit who can spell either so they don't get too fatigued.
Light's apathy towards Misa, as always, is one of the strongest reasons why so many fans theorize him to be gay, myself included. Everyone else in that scene is salivating seeing her, blushing like crazy, meanwhile Light's just cool and composed about it lol. He dgaf
I disagree that characters like this are gay. The author simply has no interest in fleshing out this characters sexuality. It’s completely unrealistic for light to be like this. Someone in his position should’ve pounded misa out at least a few times before getting bored. Shonen MC’s are notoriously virginal not because they’re presumed gay or asexual, but because the authors are not confident about introducing any element of serious romance to their stories and the audience likely wouldn’t relate to the character as much if they were too successful with women. Romantic interest and actually succeeding at pursuing it would also change characters in intrinsic ways that would make it so the show has to be different.
OH yeah on the topic of people being grateful to Kira, i feel like that makes perfect sense. you gotta remember, we're seeing kira from the inside, we see what he's really like and why he really does what he does but to people on the outside, Kira is just this avenging angel coming in to smite people who, to them, should have already been smote. he's kinda batman-like to the average citizen, an invisible force of good meting out justice. they dont know that kira's an insane teenager with delusions of grandeur lmao they just see "the bad people die :)".
Without spoiling... *too much,* Mello is more then half the reason Near ends up doing as well as he does in the future; in this episode he flips the table and causes so much chaos and havoc that Light is left unbalanced and Near gets some good openings...
Bro, on god you uploading is like our favorite artist dropping an album. Don’t stop please, I know it’s hard making this videos but we need our fix man 💉
Me curious if overanalyzing the second half of Death Note will add more attention and respect to it lol, as a fan of (exclusively) Mello and Near in the second half. These are genuinely goated videos that make me appreciate the anime more, and I'm looking forward to your coverage of this arc :D
Funny enough, in the manga, upon his appearance with the SPK, Near was not suspecting L to be Kira undercover. So he just went "I can't believe you had 6 whole years and did not do anything about it, you're no closer to catching Kira, you did not study the Death Note in any meaningful sense. Hell I don't even know why L let you take over his name when you are clearly so inadequate" and Light is just like "... who dafuq is this guy and why is he scolding me?" It was only during Mello's kidnapping scheme that Near starts suspecting Kira might either be in kahoot with or have infiltrated the Japanese Task Force.
I think a plane with a death note bound death would land safely as the pilot would then be possessed to land and then immediately they would have a heart attack afterwards.
I think the reason Light killed the director is more that he doesn't want a hostage negotiation where they trade the directors life for their death note. Like if he wanted to prevent a information leak he probably would have killed him much earlier, and it's only after Near asks for their notebook that Light kills the Director. So he knows there are people out there who know of the notebook, and clearly one of them wants it. So it's not unreasonable to assume Light came to the conclusion that this is the reason the director was kidnapped, and that he had to stop the notebook from falling into Mello's hands.
Hope you're doing well man! I can't wait for this series to come back. The second half of the show is not as good as the first but I'd hate to see this series just die off. Speaking of which.... has Kira seen you face? It could explain where the new videos are..... Keep up the great work!
I like to imagine it like this; Mello represents L’s willpower and determination to get the job done no matter what. Near is L’s restraint and logic that dictates when and how to properly get the job done. Combine the two, and we get… Not L, but something pretty close to it.
Not sure about the one in episode 1, but the guy chasing Higuchi looked like he died of a heart attack before crashing his bike, not from an accident itself.
Something cool about L's theme too is that the guitar and the electric guitar are some of the dominant instruments in both of Light's/Kira's themes "Light's theme" and "Low of Solipsism." Light uses primarily electric strings, so the guitar in L's theme can also represent their rivalry and their similarities.
"while nears and mello's respective themes start out very different near the end they sound very similiar" huh... i wonder if thats supposed to symbolize something...
Obha confirmed Light spared his family during the time skip because they’re good people who deserve to live. He also confirmed his reaction to a little thing in episode 29 (iykyk) was not an act. So yes he cares
I'll say that Light's standards are still shaky to say the least, but when all is said and done, the Complete Monster trope is YMMV anyway, so I'll agree with the notion that Light's care for his family is existent, even if it's still too outweighed. It's simply that what we have regardless is somebody still worth having a crossbow out and about for to pin the dangerous threat willing to resort to delusion-bolstered extremism in his messiah complex.
@@joshuaagee-bass4049 I will say that screaming for the investigators' deaths before going into Villains Want Mercy mode, after making no effort to make Takada's death any more comfortable at least (I'm hearing immolation is particularly painful, but even in that case, Light and Mikami caring only about evidence disposal), isn't exactly a pretty site. Of course, I'm still with Matsuda in the epilogue in practically asking why Light did all this, why he went down his dark path. In that sense, Light still is a CM, but nobody said he can't be pitied in the midst of him being tight-laced without recognizing why that's an idiotic idea. There is a comment by Shadao worth providing here where he's talking about Aku and Vaatu: "You know, it's poetic to upvote both of them since I always use Aku and Vaatu as examples of truly evil villains that theoretically a thousand times worse than many Complete Monsters, particularly the self-righteous kind. Oh, the self-righteous fanatics are more real to us... but there is something truly scary about beings who are under no self-delusion of what they do... and yet still do it because it amuse them." I imagine Shadao is actually thinking about Belos from Owl House with the self-righteous fanatics point, but his point works. You MIGHT convince a Lucifer analogue intent on delivering their idea of justice to see the error of their ways, and even getting them to use any gifts they truly do have to contribute to the community's welfare is still a possibility simply made easier by having them depowered and under lock and key for life, even if the percentage for the chance of that happening is still inevitably a junk value. I would not expect even that much of a chance to exist with the likes of Roger Retinz who throws about and incites sadism like no tomorrow. If they will kill loyalists purely for cruel gain with no sense of pragmatism, if they will have people needing help subjected to slavery "where they can live miserably ever after", then that's not even survival efforts or the deadly sin of Wrath. That's straight up cruelty for its own sake, and letting it go unanswered inevitably sets an objectively bad precedent. The likes of Light and Misa are those who still actively need to be neutralized, but not killed if it can be helped if it means they can live as permanent Boxed Crooks with Light's detail management and Misa's creativity still put to work for healthier causes even by hook or crook, breaking the Kira philosophy in the process at that. Roger Retinz is the sort who would have me happy with the moment of the order for his execution being signed for his rampant, unmitigated, and unchanging cruelty that would have him refuse to do anything helpful to the end.
Excellent job as always! I remember dial-up all to well. We used it from 2004 up until 2014 iirc. From 2014 till 2023 we used 1.5mbps dsl, now we finally use a 30Mbps citizens fiber optic connection. Cheers!
Woaaah it is finally here! I managed to watch all previous episodes like 2 times and lost hope if it will be continued (especially that the second part of the show isn't that exciting) But 54 minute long video?! Made my morning, thanks!
I Love these so much..! 💜 If I'm not Homeless on The Streets in the next two months, I want to React to all of your Death Note Videos before the end of Next Year..! 😭
to answer your question 33:29, in the very first episode, Light wrote the name of the second guy he killed and immediately after 40 seconds, got turned into a pancake by a truck. Unless Truck-kun is a sentient being who would've killed that guy whether Light was there or not, it wouldn't make sense.
@@overanalyzinganime i really did!! you and korotos mystery shack are the best channelsn on this website! and i got the bonus points on the 'how to use it' accidental death thingy lmao
What surprises me is they blamed Kira when the Director died but it could’ve been the NPA using the notebook. I’m not sure why nobody considered that possibility because it does seem like something police may do.
I would assume Light couldn't get to the mafia bosses simply because it required field investigation he simply couldn't put effort into while also pretending to guide the investigation
I love your series and always look forward towards the next episode but when L sent the data to the wamy house (sorry for spelling) he sent everything he deduced and found out throughout the investigation he most probably told near most of the things u need to know about the investigation
