While they were travelling on the train to locate Dr Nikaido's lab partner, a television broadcast by Kujo (as part of her strategy to capture Maki) announced to the public that Maki was a patient infected with a lethal virus who escaped the hospital and her photo of herself in her school attire was presented on-screen. This led to widespread panic, especially to some train passengers who recognized Maki from her face and school uniform shown on the news. As such, L had Maki changed into a red dress (to prevent anyone from recognizing her) and they both, together with Near, had to stop using public transport to travel and used bicycles instead. During the time Maki spent with L and Near, while she bonded with both L and Near, she seemingly developed some signs of romantic feelings for the eccentric detective. Despite this possible affection, L generally views Maki as a younger sister and treats her like one. Naomi is one of the central characters in the spinoff novel Death Note Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases by author Nisio Isin. [22] The story is set several years prior to the start of the series and focuses on a series of murder cases investigated by L with Naomi as his operative. The resulting capture of the murderer helped launch Naomi's reputation within the FBI.

He wants to play God and pass judgement on people by himself. For me the main message of the whole book is “Judge not, lest you be judged” (Matthew 7:1) If Light killed only one criminal every day for five years, that'd be 1,850 people, but that's not taking into account several things that might impede Light's work. An unemployed 42-year-old man, Kurou Otoharada ( 音原田 九郎, Otoharada Kurō) is the first criminal that Light kills. Otoharada's name is announced on television as he holds eight hostages in a nursery school. As this incident was reported only on local television, it helped L narrow down Kira's whereabouts. The volume was well-received, with many reviewers joking that it is big enough to actually kill someone with it. "Forget having your name written in the deadly notebook; this Death Note could prove lethal if someone dropped it on your head." [1] International releases [ ] Language

Let’s be honest, every one of us has at least considered the line of thinking above at least once or multiple times; I still do sometimes. That’s part of being human, especially when everything you hear or see around the world is filled with injustice. The main character, Light/Kira Yagami, is a genius that accidentally obtains a Death Note, and he wants to use it for one single purpose: to make the world a better place by killing all scums, rapist, criminals that exist in the world; untouched or touched by laws, there’s no exception. This makes him an ultimate vigilante that practically untraceable by anybody because of its killing method, almost as if he’s truly a god. The plot, of course, became more complicated and engaging once his main rival, L, came into play. Not only Kira and L are both one of the finest characters I’ve ever read in manga, but their rivalry also to this day stands as one of the most highly praised rivalry in the world of manga/anime for many great reasons. To state a few, their characterizations and their deadly game of cat and mouse were so well portrayed that you can’t help but root for both of them. Not only is this a story that challenges you intellectually, it also challenges you ethically and philosophically. Light's goal is to change the world by killing off society's bad elements. But in his quest for complete peace, is it okay to kill the good people who seek to stop him? If these people are trying to prevent Utopia, doesn't that make them evil? In wars, casualties are always going to occur. But doesn't the death of a few justify saving the lives of the many? That's one of the many questions that Ohba poses, one that cannot be answered easily. Shiori Akino ( 秋野 詩織, Akino Shiori ) is portrayed by Yuu Kashii. She is Light's girlfriend, classmate at To-Oh University ( 東応大学, Tōō Daigaku), [36] and childhood friend. Shiori dreams of working in law enforcement and feels some envy stemming from Light's abilities. Shiori disagrees with Kira's methods, stating that she does not like the terror they incite; she believes that the law should judge criminals. Shiori argues with the "pro-Kira" Light, unaware of the fact that Light is Kira. [37] Light writes Shiori's name and the name of Naomi Misora in the Death Note, arranging the scenario to make it look like Naomi killed Shiori in a botched kidnapping scenario trying to expose Kira. Despite doing so, Light still express some remorse and sadness for using the Death Note to kill Shiori. Kad pagājušais gads gāja uz beigām, man ieteica lasīt grafiskās noveles vai komiksus, lai izpildītu uzstādīto gada mērķi.Ryotaro Sakajo ( 坂城 良太郎, Sakajō Ryōtarō) is a character exclusive to the Death Note film serie. He is the assistant director during the filming of Misa Amane's "Misa-Misa's Happy Sweets" video. He is obsessed with Misa, collecting a used tissue of hers after she throws it in the trash. In a sequence bridged between the two films, Sakajo corners Misa and brandishes a knife, stating that he wishes to die with her. Gelus, a shinigami watching from the Shinigami realm, kills him to save Misa's life. In doing so, Gelus dies and Rem, who was watching, finds it only fitting to grant possession of his notebook to the human that he loved. Since Rem was the first Shinigami to touch the dead Gelus's notebook, she gained possession of that one. I felt this series was just too long. The 2/3 of the book lost me a little as I did struggle to concentrate, just too many twists and turns that, in my opinion, were not needed. All 12 volumes of Death Note in one massive book, also containing a chapter never published in English!
