I love how originally psichopomps aren’t responsible for casing death but for guiding the dead to the afterlife

Shinigami (Japanese: 死神, lit. 'kami of death') are kami that invite humans toward death in certain aspects of Japanese religion and culture. Shinigami have been described as monsters, helpers, and creatures of darkness. Shinigami are used for tales and religions in Japanese culture. Miyazu, Kyoto Prefecture.

I really love that series The only question was did light really became one of them when he died if so, they should make a season where he tries to find Misa or a new vessel so he can take his revenge on n as payback 🤩☠️📝📓

[rachaeladams]

Finally one including characters from anime.😄

Saiyens also play a huge role in Japanese and surprisingly Mexican culture

I freaking love Death Note (Anime version) From the YouTube memes to the "I am gay" jokes back in the day. It was one of my favorite Animes. I just adored Ryuk's sassy nature. Didn't care for the second part of the Anime through.
