Video info:
The Death Note is a supernatural weapon, capable of killing any human by writing down their name, while picturing their face. As you’d expect the various people who’ve owned the notebook have used it in a ton of different ways and what’s interesting is that there are several characters in the manga who we never saw using it in the anime.

Don’t forget that Misa may have halved her life twice, but since Wrem & Jealous killed themselves for her, she inherited their lifespans. So, shy of execution or a death note being used on her, she’ll live much longer than any normal human

[Jiub_SN]

Lights dad thinking he was innocent before he died killed me inside lmao. Like it was happy for him but so sad and tragic that Kira really was light given how noble soichiro was

[Bonkpunktexe]

as a popular post once stated: light didnt have a slow descent into madness, he saw the downward slope coming and grabbed the sled

[Flipitmixit]

A-Kira was the goat. He used the Deathnote so well that he beat the game. So much so that the Shinigami king had to change the rules just so A-kira wouldnt win. Coward

[emilynyan]

I think what annoyed me about A-Kira was that he got done so dirty. When you initially receive the Death Note, you are able to read and accept all the rules *before* you start using it. You're informed about how everything works, so it's an equitable arrangement. Since we are already in Spoiler territory due to the video: If you read the Special, just as Ryuk is about to hand the Book to Trump, he does inform Trump about it, who promptly rejects it, but plans to never tell a soul that he doesn't actually have it (still giving him a lot of power because people would assume the US has the notebook) but Minoru is left entirely in the dark and then dies without ever having a chance to reject the payment.

By changing the rules after the Sale the Shinigami King broke part of the Core of what makes the Death Note so appealing imho

[Proygon]

not only did Light not like Misa in a romantic way, he didn't like her as a person

[Alegend.]

Misa wasn’t “intelligent to a certain extent”, she was very intelligent. She’s just basically a cult member, which is not a sign of low intelligence but of a deep seeded need for validation

[SomeBody-chsj]

Never realized that there were 19 ppl who used a death note

[ArcYT]

One thing I love about the a-Kira story is that it really drives home the fact that there is no way you can use the Death Note where it will end well for you. That, and Donald Trump drawn in the Death Note style. That was pretty funny.

[ArcaneEther]

Can you just imagine just how much better Light would have executed his plan had he chosen to take the Shinigami Eyes?

[TeeQueueSA]

A-Kira is what happens when a Chaotic Neutral player gets the Death Note and the GM rages so hard he has to smite the PC.

[ssaiyyrissssuzzuyyaa]

The art for deathnote is consistently amazing! Even the pilot looks astounding.

[MagandaMarieVA]

Didn't Misa also gain the life span of the two Shinigami that died for her? So, cutting her life down to 1/4 its span might actually still be REALLY long. We dont know how many years those Shinigami had left

[vanesslifeygo]

The fact that C-Kira did it to himself suggested he was self-projecting quite a bit. It may point to him being a victim of some misunderstood prior events.

[elielruiz]

hot take… Mello shouldve been the one to capture Light, Near was to alike L, which Light was most trained for, but Mello was more erratic, harder to figure out, the way the story panned out however wouldnt make sense for Mello to win thus they would have to be changes in the Near/Mello arc to work out, 😅

[ontoya]

Even though Higuchi was dumb, having a council use the Death Note instead of just one person IS smart. The Death Note was always power that one person shouldn't have

[Neku]

I guess, some of the Kiras really did live up to the saying, "A guilty conscience needs no accuser."

[AstonishingRed]

When Mikami wrote names in the Death Note, it wasn’t in a spirit of indifference like most others. That dude hated people so much that he wanted to delete them from existence.

[animeup]

Imagine if death eraser was introduced in Death note anime series 💀
