just finished death note
#txt#edit. i don't think i liked the ending#spoilers ahoy. nesting nesting nesting nesting nesting nesting nesting nesting nesting nestiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnng#ok. ngl i was kinda rooting for light for the entire series. OBVIOUSLY murder is bad#but in the context of this work of fiction. the world is so much more interesting with kira#and after everything the world just. goes back to normal? after all that? come on#i understand the point they're making about the futility of everything light did. but that doesn't mean i like it#i would have been much more satisfied if everyone else in the task force/spk had died and light got to keep kira'ing#also. i havent read the manga but i did read about the differences between its ending and the anime's ending.#in the manga light starts groveling and mikami renounces him bc of it. and then light begs ryuk to kill him.#ryuk writes light's name in his death note (full circle) and light panics and spends the next 40 seconds saying he doesn't want to die#in the anime‚ light gets shot‚ but mikami slip'n'slides himself and light runs away.#as he starts to run out of strength‚ ryuk writes his name in the death note (again‚ full circle)#i think having him run away is a bit more pathetic. so it might be more effective at communicating how light is ultimately just some guy#some guy who fucked up and played god and paid for it#BUT him running away removes him from the rest of the story#in a way that i feel detracts from his journey#idk i feel like it'd have been more poetic for him to die there in the warehouse#also. the thing about all the fake notebooks was confusing#apparently the manga has an epilogue where matsuda explains his theory that near controlled mikami with the death note#and that the 'yeah we copied his entire death note down to the molecule overnight' thing was just a lie#idk i feel like that loose end was just. presented to us and never tied up#not quite a loose end. frayed. whatever#EDIT edit. light hallucinated seeing l as the last of the life drained out of him. BITCH
