The second half of the show was such a letdown after the amazing set up done before L's departure

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They really should’ve just kept L around until near the end because Near and Mello were fucking awful lol. Literally no reason for their inclusion

Yeah, silly decision to throw away all the tension and chemistry built up between the mastermind detective and the illusive killer to do a "well the mastermind detective actually raised two orphans to be mastermind-1 detectives and they kinda hate each other but now they're on the case" twist. Addiction to twists and/or "this is successful, I have to keep writing more of it for financial reasons" after already killing off L have to be the reasons.

i-think-that the second half of death note was good

I'm proud of you, being able to stand up tall and loudly proclaim that you're wrong like that takes guts.

i-think-that near and mello are a good foil for l and are both really good characters, and their dynamics with light rule

Braver than the troops
