I wouldnt have ended it that way either, but what do you know, Light was really on the edge between being the good guy or the bad guy.  The fact that he is the main character of the anime tends to make you feel sympathy for him, but at the end, he was arguably a dude who's dream was worth sacrificing as many people as it would need, no matter if they were close to him or not.  Maybe he just deserved to end like that.

This being said, DN = L for me, so from the point of his death to the end of the anime, it was pretty much a downfall.  Near was nice, but even close to what L was, with his personality and everything.

Anyway, very nice anime.  Imo, no anime is like Death Note.  And I am talking about the style of the anime, not the awesomeness itself. 9/10

I watched Monster, would rate 7/10.  Nice but not much action, more of a psychological thing.  Ending was nice though.

Same for Code Geass.  Watched the first half, never got to watch R2.  Never really got into it.  Some people are real fans of this though, so maybe you should take a look, you might enjoy.


pick code geass back up because i had to struggle through R1 too but the last few episodes of R2 are a lot better
people will tell you that R1 was better but R2 was for me what L is for you

Agreed. I heard for ever how amazing Monster was, finally watched it and was horribly disappointed. Code Geass and Death Note both have some major plot holes but they are both amazing shows imo.



Ryuk stated multiple times he was "not on Lights side" . In one episode he just kept laughing at Light because someone was giving him a fake name and Light had no idea.

It was early in the series where he tells Light that he isn't on his side or against him
and was mentioned a few times after that


Does Ryuk really specifically tell Light that he cannot identify people for him?

Also, it doesn't matter if Ryuk was on his side or not. He could have helped Light if Light asked.

Like that scene where Light got Ryuk to search for how many cameras there are in his room/house, that's technically helping him.

He says multiple times he will not help light.

Light outsmarted him on that one..... Ryuk only helped because of his own selfish need for apples lol.

And so Light could not have paid Ryuk in apples to use his Shinigami eyes? I think they should have at least showed Light try it so that these questions don't arrise.
