Death Note episode 4

I'm glad Light didn't decide to take the deal for the eyes. Would have made the show really really easy then.

More rules. Considering it only makes then rules of the show more fair and the plot has to adhere to those rules, I praise it.

But holy shit that was a very specific plan Light came up with just to get the guy to say his name. If I was Light, I'd use my new found power of description of death to create a series of less frequent yet more intricate murders so I could get away with it easier. They'd think that since the pattern of mass heart attacks stopped, the case would be over, maybe even write in the Death Note about how a criminal gets tried and executed.

Episode 5

So much shit is happening I'll start putting spoiler tags on the summaries.

And this is Light's spiral down into villainy. Killing 12 FBI agents just to spurr L even more is fucking annoying.

Plus, those demands of Light when he was following the guy on the train were fucking ridiculous. But I see we have a new subplot with his fiancee following the case now.

I find it hilarious that the police force is now down to 5 guys and L, making them extremely easy to stop and toy around with.



Episode 6

So.... L's a shut-in?

I've been convinced this entire show that Light has been stupid and brash and revealed himself, but at the same time is so smart about all this shit. This episode proved that.

The FBI Agent's fiancee being the thing Light was missing in taking everything into account is an example of the terribly long road Light is gonna go down to become god. He's probably gonna kill her next episode and even if he lets her live, either way, he's screwed. Even if he kills her, via heart attack or some other means, is gonna raise suspicion.

This is how you do an evil character with a corrupted sense of justice. Not like Micchy where Kickback proclaims his coming around in the last 5 episodes as redempeion for all of the shit he did. No, you can not come out of this shit with blood on your hands and expect no consequences and a magical space fruit god to forgive you.

Episode 7

Damn, that was the most intense conversation I've ever seen between two people. I also thought her voice sounded familar and it turns out her American voice actress also voiced Soma Pieres from Gundam 00. So Setsuna just controlled Marie to kill herself lol. Taking an entire episode to kill this character was an awesome to see. But this episode shows the amount of exponential oversights this plan can have.

There wasn't that much advancement on L's side but giving Aliases to the cops is not gonna help them considering how close Kira is to them.

Light's getting further and further down the well of lies.

Episode 8

That was the most intense doing of homework ever. So now they've wire tapped his house and damn this is getting intense. Although I found the mini TV inside the chips to be a bit ridiculous. L
s plan is sort of working, but he still is narrowing it down to Light.

Episode 9

L revealed himself? I mean it makes sense given the story but L'd better have a backup. I wonder if L is gonna figure out the Shinigami thing.

Episode 10

This is getting into crazy mental battle territory. Like being screwed either way while making a decision is just mindfucking to me.

Although Light is getting ground on L, getting him to trust him more but at the same time raising his suspicion. I hope L wises up and puts up some guards before he lets Light in.

Episode 11

Holy shit there's two Kiras and the second one has the Shinigami eyes? I swear I'm gonna have a hear attack from all the tension of the show lol. But yeah, now this is going to be really really tense as the two Kiras have to kill each other without meeting the other with one at a severe disadvantage.

At the beginning where they didn't show Light, I thought they were going to show his involvement at the end, maybe to change up the formula of the episode. Like maybe show him using a laptop and some fancy dancy facial recognition program to give him the names. But damn, I did not see that coming so early. I knew there was a second arc to the show and I thought the other Shinigami were going to come down then.



Episode 12

Wow. I was mildly interested in the Shinigami aspect of the show before, but now I'm uber interested in how this realm works. The death note's origin for fake Kira was really powerful and completely changes the show dynamic.

And now it makes sense why she took the eyes deal, she had her life span added to by that Shinigami's death. So if that Shinigami had about 1000 years on his life, what's it to her to sacrifice half of that to get the eyes, she's gonna live well past the point of when she's gonna die anyways.

But in the opening, Light is reaching out to her like a certain Kiba Yuji ready to accept her. Is he just trying to kill her or is it going to be a legitimate attempt to team up.


I'm just wondering if we're gonna get some sort of meta Death note killing where one owner has the instructions for someone's death involve the other owner being forced to write down the name of that person in theirs as like a proxy/safety/ messing with each other of who's really killing who.
