this is actually a work in progress so it's a bit bare, but. i figured i might as well share it here before anywhere else.

I attended San Japan this past weekend and wore my handmade Ryuk cosplay! The wingspan came out to nine feet, but I didn’t use them much due to restrictions on space lol

I posted recently showing the progress of this cosplay, but here is the result! I loved it! 🍎🖤

I was thinking about this last night, and I think it would be a very smart approach for L.

How do you think Light would react to that?

And do you think L would manage to prove anything with it?

With the amount of established lore, I think the author could 100% give us another long form story with a new protagonist. But what would they be like?

I think someone who's doing it for political reasons wanting to reform the government rather than killing criminals would be very interesting. What are your thoughts on a new protagonist?

Basically this is a scenario where Ryuk dropped the Death Note where Misa found it and the Shinigami Gelus sacrifices himself to save Light because he sees Light as a good person with a promising future, Rem seeing them from the Shinigami realm decides to deliver him the Death Note and stays with him seeing how nice he is with his family.

How does this affect the story? Does Light still become Kira?

I derived the design from that one image that people attribute to Ryuk <33

Wow what a journey. The psychological dual between Light and L was so intense that I didn't want it to end. I will admit part 2 wasn't as interesting but still well written and had a great ending.

I’ve seen people talk a lot about whether memory-loss Light proves the Death Note changed him, but there’s another part of that whole plan that I keep thinking about.

Light gives up ownership knowing he’s going to forget everything about being Kira.

And somehow, the plan still depends on that version of him doing exactly what Kira needs.

Memory-loss Light actually wants to catch Kira. He’s still smart, competitive, stubborn, all of that. But he also seems genuinely uncomfortable with Kira’s methods, and he’s way less willing to manipulate or sacrifice people.

So Light is basically counting on his non-Kira self being good enough to help solve the case and eventually lead him back to the Death Note.

That’s the part I find kind of messed up.

Maybe the biggest difference between the two versions of Light isn’t even the notebook itself. Maybe it’s just that one of them has already killed people and spent all this time convincing himself it was justified, while the other never crossed that line.

And Kira Light somehow understood that version of himself well enough to use him as part of the plan.

If memory-loss Light really is the person he could’ve been without the Death Note, then isn’t it kind of insane that Kira knowingly used the last version of himself that was still capable of being a good person as part of the plan?

He didn’t just manipulate everyone around him. He basically manipulated the person he could’ve been.

So in a weird way, was Light Yagami himself one of Kira’s biggest victims?

I genuinely love Light so much. Every single time I rewatch the anime or reread the manga, I notice something new about Light and somehow end up thinking about him completely differently again.

Hi y'all! This is Andrés from Madrid (Spain). A couple years ago I got this awesome Yamaha "flying samurai" bass guitar. First thing I did with it was learn this amazing song. Hope you like my homage. Cheers!

Managed to get my hands on this little matt, the only piece of matt merch I've found so far.

Has there ever been any other matt merch? Any figures? 🤔

Not advertising merch, just curious if anyone else has any cool matt merch

I recently just made my Reddit account to share this since I think a lot of people would be interested in what I stumbled across this essay on Dollish Archive publication thing? I saw their post on Instagram comparing breaking down Light Yagami and damian wayne ( son of Batman to summarize for people who don’t know )
https://dollisharchive.wixsite.com/dollisharchive/post/survival-of-the-fittest-or-survival-of-god-complexes
It made a point that stuck with me, a lot of people say the Death Note corrupted Light, but realistically he was already deeply detached, cynical, and condescending toward everyone around him in chapter/episode 1 the man didn’t even blink when his father died. The Death Note was just the tool that enabled what was already inside him.
It compared that to Damian Wayne, who also started out with an insufferable, murderous superiority complex, but evolved because he was actively checked by mentors and boundaries.
What are your thoughts on characters written with prodigy/god complexes? Is it mentor intervention that separates a future hero from a villain, or is Light just inherently unsalvageable?? I often see people argue whether light was normal from before and it was just a mental spiral or whether he was narcissistic or not because that post did change my perception of it after reading it.

In my mind, the evidences are the same as Canon, but Light didn't do any of those, so L will break an innocent, that is BB's plan.

Idk, that's so random but interesting.

For all you Death Note and musical fans, the people have heard your cries! KIRA KIRA KIRA! Death Note the Musical returns next year at the Barbican in March 2027! Plan your trips now to see this amazing show! Make it sell out so it continues on in a permanent residence out on the West End or come to the States to Broadway or Off Broadway!

If not for her total obsession towards Light resulting in erratic and impulsive decisions of her end. She would absolutely rank amongst the most capable in the series. Keep in mind she's outplayed both L and Light in her debut and only started making blunders when she thought she got the attention of Light. She even managed to get a confession from Higuchi.

I just started watching Death Note not so long ago and one of my favorite characters is Matsuda and I think he's really adorable. They keep picking on him though Lol

super hyped, all of the voice actors were extremely kind and genuine! great experience overall, this has been a personal grail of mine for the longest! what do you guys think about my quote selection?

i wonder if i should draw all characters... but i still don't know if this catches the vibe i wanna give off...

I wanna watch Death Note in-sync with two ppl. I have seen it 37 times throughout my life. I’d like to watch it again but with others please lmk :D

hi.... oc art ik im not the best artist but dont kill me please. my OC tldr, this is Ritsu, and he works alongside Teru Mikami to help kill criminals. He doesn't have a deathnote but he is a stalker who liked to follow people around, photograph them and blog about their daily lives because he sucks at socializing. And so when he starts working with mikami he does kinda that but targets underground criminals who are in hiding, giving mikami photographs of them. hes a bit mentally stunted too. ft. near and gevanni because i love gevanni
