[Death Note] What do you think was the reason for Light’s defeat in the end?

That’s right, I am Kira.

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx53

Jebani

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Publication magazine

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

I took the bait.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

You lose the moment you pick up the notebook.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

Low resistance to provocation

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

The fact that Lind L. Taylor was killed.

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>6

Originally, the first crime was already narrowed down to Japan, so even if I killed Linda El Taylor, it would just narrow down to the Kanto region in Japan.

Although it is part of the operation, leaking to L that I am in a position to access investigative information was problematic in a specific sense.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Although we lost, one could say we barely managed to kill Nia and it ended in a draw! However, I think it completely became a loss because of this grand speech here.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

>>7

It’s nice to be completely defeated by Nia, isn’t it?

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

The existence of misa and rem.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

It’s funny that even at this point, they think if they just kill Near, they can convince everyone else!!

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

>>11

I’m a bit curious about what kind of words came out.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If it was just about killing L, that move would have been fine.

Having revealed almost all my strategies and won, successors seemed to emerge.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Well, if America succumbed to Kira and the Japanese government also became Kira’s puppet, isn’t there no need for an investigation team? It would have been fine to just wipe out everyone in the investigation team and leave Near alone.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>13

In the end, trying to defeat Near, who inherited L’s will, was a failure.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that crimes and conflicts have decreased by about 70%, so it might be fair to say that ordinary citizens have won.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>14

But it seems like when the moon died, it quickly returned to the original world…

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Considering the current world, it’s truly admirable that we have eliminated war.

It’s just that the terror of executing criminals is overwhelming…

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though it’s narrowed down to being in the Kanto region, there’s still no certainty at that point.

If you ignore Lind L. Taylor, eventually the target would have moved to Kansai or somewhere like that.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Even if we manage to kill all of Nea’s group, there’s still a possibility that the moon could die depending on the mood of the Death God King.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if it’s narrowed down to the Kanto region, as long as Kira doesn’t do anything unnecessary, it’s absolutely impossible to identify any further.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it possible to lose under those conditions?

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

At some point, L started a sticky, almost obsessive reasoning saying he doesn’t have definitive proof yet, but he’s sure it’s this guy.

It seems that even without taking the bait from that one provocation, it would catch someone’s eye somewhere.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>23

L, Near, and Mello act based on intuition rather than probability, so there’s not much that can be done.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>23

In the first place, it’s because the investigation information was leaked that the Repenber was sent in, and since they are going to kill the Repenber, L has taken notice of them.

If you don’t do anything from the beginning, there’s no specific way to do it.

32: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>23

If you jump to conclusions and are wrong, you can just apologize.

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In other words, no matter how much I was squeezed, it didn’t really matter.

As long as I can keep hidden how I’m killing, there will never be any solid evidence that I am Kira.

The worst reason for defeat was because Misa forced me to expose the Death Note to others.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>24

L normally uses illegal means as well.

If the rate of unnatural deaths among criminals due to abduction and confinement decreases drastically, it might lead to the capture of Kira, even if the means are unknown.

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It may indeed be the power of God, but if it’s being used by a human like you, then it’s nothing less than a personal punishment, you crazy bastard.

At the point where I can’t even respond to Nia’s words, I’ve already lost to everything.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

I haven’t been looking at 2chan.

29: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Even if it’s not narrowed down to the Kanto region, as long as Soichiro is part of the investigation team, L and Light are likely to come into contact, and if they do, L will instinctively judge that this person is Kira.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

Once you killed Shibutaku, it would have been best to quickly burn it or shred it and get rid of it.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m curious about what happened after Kira truly took control of everyone and turned the world into a godlike realm.

I feel like it was an unexpectedly good world.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

In the end, at the point where one has no choice but to rely on police investigations and information from the media for judgment, it seems that false accusations will occur frequently.

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

There are various things like movies and anime, but I still love the original story’s ending the most.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

>>35

The most clumsy one is the best, right?

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>35

The conclusion was that I liked the movie the most.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it continued a bit longer, it seemed like politicians who spread false information to get rid of troublesome people would start targeting Kira.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t help but think that it would have been better to just keep a scrap of the notebook in a different safe every time.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a demonstration to eliminate evildoers, so whether it’s a wrongful accusation or not doesn’t matter.

44: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>39

As Matsuda said, this guy is someone we have to kill.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s Jump, I have to lose, after all…

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I think it’s the most beautiful story for the movie’s L to end in a tie.

When it comes to awkwardness, the original work is the only choice.

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Well, Japan is just a bonus; the direct reasons for victory are Mello’s actions and Mikami’s rashness.

The monthly limit for one-person operation.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>42

Didn’t someone like Matsuda say at the end that Nia probably used the Death Note on Mikami, not noticing Jevanni’s handiwork?

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>63

While that is true, it is the reason why Mikami never doubted the notebook.

The reason the notebook was given to Near in the first place is that Near kidnapped Takada and used the notebook that Mikami had hidden on his own.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it’s still at the stage where Taylor was killed, could it be that they managed to escape by saying they happened to be in Kanto while living in Kansai?

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even if it wasn’t a jump, we have entered a world where personal discretion can justify vigilante justice! I don’t think this will be adopted as an ending, though…

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>46

It seems quite possible for a canceled manga with completely broken ethics to exist…

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>46

There are currently serialized works where the death penalty is being enforced at an individual’s discretion…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>46

I don’t know what kind of ending it will have, but ninjas and yakuza exist in a world like this.

Well, it seems like ninjas might go extinct too.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

Most situations can be managed if you just have no pride.

48: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The clash between L and Light is beautiful, but the movie theater is a bit different…

To be honest, I can’t imagine L would adopt a strategy that would result in a draw at best or a pointless death at worst.

If I can’t prove that the moon = Kira without dying, then for L, it’s pretty much a declaration of defeat.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember seeing something similar in Sunday.

Something like brain something.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like endings that feel like they’re saying “you’ve worked hard” despite all the ups and downs in the anime.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

The place where you declare victory when you think you’ve won.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

Burning two-layered soles and a watch with a secret notebook tucked in, oddly skilled with my hands.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

The goal of becoming the god of the new world is

It was achieved because it became an object of faith.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>56

I guess they didn’t want to do business with the Grim Reaper until the very end and wanted to become a living god…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

From fairly early on, this guy is way too smart and too innocent; only Moon-kun could possibly be able to do something like Kira. There’s no concrete evidence, but I’m identifying him based on instinct, so there’s no way he can escape.

Finally, it’s because I erased my memory.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

The process is so terrible that convincing someone is impossible.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have decided to retire by handing the notebook over to a trustworthy person.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

The part where you look down on women regardless of the notes.

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>65

The rude man is looking down on you too.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

If there is a chance of a victory route, or rather a survival route, it would be when Shirotsuki, who has lost his memory in the Yotsuba arc, notices Kiratsuki’s scheme.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

Matsuda’s reasoning (wishful thinking) is merely a speculation biased towards light.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

The concept of the New World God Plan that thoroughly highlighted Kira.

To cover it up, they leaked internal police information and if left unchecked, they might kill Rei in a large-scale operation.

If we keep spreading this much information from the beginning, it feels like we’ll eventually hit a dead end.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

The victory declaration provocation is bad.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

Nothing has changed around here since the beginning…

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Regarding Matsuda’s delusion that Near used the notebook, there is no basis for it when you consider the reason why Near would go to the warehouse to settle things, risking danger in the first place.

For SPK other than Near, Near’s pride doesn’t really concern them, and it wouldn’t be strange if someone like Gevanni was manipulating Mikami on his own.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

Pretending to chase Kira, yet holding the control of the operations team.

Being called incompetent and saying “gnnnh” was a bit foolish.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>72

I think it’s because I’m competitive from start to finish, and I really hate being underestimated even as a joke.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the point where there was the purpose of making Kira’s existence known to the world and pride, there was no turning back.

If it didn’t exist, it would have likely been abruptly canceled as an overwhelmingly one-sided work that wouldn’t lose to anyone.

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s probably because both women of the moon were the landmine type.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>75

I think it’s the kind of guy who keeps a convenient woman around when he’s on the bus and treats women like that regardless of the situation.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

The height of pride and carelessness in crucial moments are truly beyond help.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

L, who lost to the thread image, undoubtedly lost because he got too caught up in the mood of the investigation headquarters. If he had been dry enough to expose that he was playing games like it was a game at the orphanage, he might have been able to win.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

The spirit of rounding down to zero people was insufficient.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s interesting that Mikami’s quick thinking allowed him to turn a nearly checkmate situation into a reverse checkmate, yet that same quick thinking becomes the reason for his defeat.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

L oddly liked the Kira game, you know…
