[@nessyness5447]

@@65firered you don't even need to go that far. Remember when after the first kill, he decides he should kill someone else to test if it really was the death note or just a coincidence? For a moment he contemplates killing one of his classmates from the afternoon school and says to himself that when he thinks about it , everyone seems like a waste of space. He only decides to not test the death note on them because he decides is better to kill someone non related to himself in any way.

[@65firered]

@@nessyness5447 I wanted to use an actual kill to get the point across first, but also consider how long he had the Death Note by this point, only a few days.

[@nessyness5447]

@@65firered i get that, but i think everyone forgets the moment i mention when they defend that light was good at first and went mad due to the power of the death note. Which is why i think that moment, or even when light is introduced before finding the death note,thinking about how he basically sees everyone as inferior, or when he says after realising the death note is def real, that he will kill big criminals from heart attacks while eliminating other minor criminals and people who are a bother to society, with accidents and illnesses. Those are all important moments to understand that light was never good or had any good intentions from the beggining. He didn't want to make the world better for everyone, he wanted to shape it to his liking and control it. It is the perfect example that power doesn't actually corrupt, it just brings out what one really has inside. And is why is pissed me off when in the live action japanese tv show from 2015 or the netflix insult of a movie they made light into a sort of victim who gets bullied and lost his mom, etc. The point of light is that he is an extremelly privileged kid who doesn't know suffering at all and so his vision of a perfect world is a selfish one from his privileged pov that doesn't contemplate the reason why some people commit certain crimes. Instead of looking into that, of researching what could be done to reduce crime rates , to prevent crimes, he just kills everyone who does something he considers bad. He even kills people who are already in prison, or in a mental institution like B was, he doesn't consider those lives or the lives of those who cause any " trouble" to have any value, he only sees as good people those as privileged as himself.

[@ellarose7114]

[@jokestermasteroflaughter7754]

This isn’t a girlfriend boyfriend relationship as much as it is a cult leader and follower relationship. leaders lure in those who fall for there charm and charisma in order to use them. They make promises and tell followers what they wanna hear so that they can take advantage of a followers assets. Light embodies both charm and charisma, he can tell Misa sweet little nothings and she’ll believe them because she believes she’ll get his love in return.

[@stephlastname9101]

EXACTLY! Light preyed on her vulnerability and adoration. The traumas that Misa faced were not given enough time to heal, and were instead "solved" by her belief in Kira. Her character is so tragic and it really sucks when people call her "stupid" when really she's just a broken woman who was used by a deranged cult leader.

[@blesskurunai9213]

@@demonkingbadger6689 I actually love Ryukes character. Even though it's completely true that the producers used him as a comic relief time to time but he always was a God of death. And he never lost this trait. Time to time he has proven that he's stronger, greater and just *more* than other characters. Even him being comical adds to that trait. He's just so on a whole different level that he's not even taking it seriously. Also another thing that I like about him is how he sometimes seemed more human than light empathywise. It shows how much Light has fallen that a non human God of Death is more human than him. We get to see that even from the first episode when Light was telling Ryuke how he would eradicate crime from the human world by killing every criminal in the world in which Ryuke replied by saying "Wouldn't that make you the only last criminal of this world?". Or how in this video when we see Light mercilessly yelling at Misa Ryuke clearly feels disgusted and says "Taking your anger on her huh?". And even in the last episode before killing Light he hesitates a little bit. A God of Death, killing people is who's only resson of existence hesitates to kill someone. It is completely opposites in contrast to Light, who is just a mortal mere human yet who hesitates less to take a life than a literal God of Death.

[@_vair_]

when people say stuff like Misa was too good to be light's girlfriend they always forget to mention the fact that Misa is also a mass murderer. When Misa was introduced as the second Kira, she only started killing people so she could meet the first Kira, another mass murderer. We all know how much Misa appreciated Kira at first but to go as far as to start killing people herself just to have the chance to meet the first kira is insane. Another thing that could have been a factor in Light and Misa's relationship is the fact that anyone who uses the death note will be cursed so it could be said that Misa was cursed to love someone who would never love her back.

[@Lunaticmist]

Also the fact that Misa killed innocents too even though Light only killed criminals and people who tried to catch him. She only stopped because Kira told her to. She is very callous about life, even removing 3/4 of it, again, just to please Light. She clearly has no self respect, value for life or morals. At this point Light just plays along with it because she literally treats him like a god, not a fellow human being. I don’t blame Light for treating Misa the way he did.

[@HoradricGuitar]

Except for the fact that to me it makes zero sense to give Misa the death note in the first place. Rem, a shinigami, gave Misa, a human she claims to love and have feelings for, an item that she should know good and well will destroy her life. Misa was going to live a long and happy life but everything went down the shitter for her when Rem gave her a notebook. Very compelling. Edit: and to add worse for ware, in the manga rem acknowledges that humans who are followed by a Shinigami typically have bad luck similar to a curse. So she outwardly acknowledges, that her existence in Misas’ life is just a bad idea.

[@anna.owo.]

If a shinigami kills someone to protect a human they die and the notebook and their life expectancy goes to the human. Also humans that use the death note become shinigami, so rem and her would be together forever.

[@HoradricGuitar]

@@anna.owo. Humans that use the notebook do not become shinigami that is not true. In the manga Ryuk states at the end that death is equal for all humans no matter what.

Ryuk told Light he'd suffer. One of the few remaining links to his humanity was his family, through which we could see the "real" Light: when he forgot his memories, he was an upstanding, moral human being. Like how he befriended L and found Kira abhorrent. He probably even loved Misa then. So Kira was incapable if loving anyone (just like he used and killed Naomi and Takata), but Light wasn't.

[@jj4123]

Hold on now. How didn't I think of this earlier. That's the ending. You proved all the hopes of the fans in that comment. Individuals that change because of the death note and are killed by the very shinigami that caused it become a shinigami themselves. It was shown that Light forgot everything that made him Light throughout the show. He didn't even remember his own dad at the end of the story. He also seemed to be an extremely moral and overall good person without it. Him changing to this degree is impossible unless it affected him differently. This is highlighted by the fact that other users of the death note didn't become as evil and consumed as him. You could argue that Mikume also changed drastically, similarly to Light. This would not affect the theory since he didn't die to a shinigami. Other users didn't change like Light at all. Death Note is also based on buddhism. Buddhism actually has many terms for nothingness. ''Nothing lacks independent existence'' Possibly refering to how a shinigami requires a human to use the notebook. ''Nothingness is something which makes something exist'' Death results in life. ''Karma, rebirth, Impermanence'' ''Nothingness is a condition for awareness'' ''Nothing exists in an enduring manner'' The nothing Ryuk talks about is himself, he would not remember it however. He himself forgot that he became nothingness once.

Exactly, these people are insane lmao. She dang near grapes him at some points. Also, if she truly loved him, she would put her wants aside and do what it takes to achieve his goals as efficiently as possible.

All she thinks about is how to be with Light, to the point that it overrides her ability to be anything more than a liability to him, a necessary evil. It was never love, it was an unhealthy and genuinely dangerous infatuation and obsession. She’s not in love, she’s codependent. She was a rabid chihuahua of a girlfriend. She’s a terrible person and a terrible partner, both in crime and in romance. To make things worse her brightest moments almost seem out of character, and only come when the plot demands it because the writers say so. I don’t know what these people are talking about.

He was basically forced to keep Misa around at all times to prevent her from exposing both of them and ruining his plans.

Misa is the definition of deserved better. She made the eye deal twice so now she only has a quarter of her original lifespan. Rem even realized that Light was toxic but only supported their relationship due to Misa being happy. Light's stupidity even resulted in Rem's death and his own. The only reason she made the eye deal a second time was because she couldn't remember L's real name and she didn't want to disappoint Light. Light would also practically emotionally abuse her. Yelling at her because she was asking if she was okay. Ryuk even commented on it. It is also believed that after Light died Misa ended up offing herself due to her losing someone she truly cared about and becoming depressed from it. The true first victim of Death Note was Light, the last one was Kira. Misa was an amazing character, not my favorite but after seeing this she is now my second favorite. Misa was such a good character she has two shinigami simping for her and they both died because of her almost dying

[@EllisM.11]

Misa isn't a good character though, she's sympathetic but in the end she forced Light into a relationship he didn't want, didn't leave even when she could without any repercussions, betrayed and used Rem on multiple occasions, and it was her naivety or stupidity that lead her to make the second eye deal (which even Light thought was dumb).
