Death Note

[Board of Command]

I suspect that Light's father getting sick is all staged by L.

- Both are sitting there talking and suddenly both of their phones ring.
- The phones ring right when L is telling Light about the task force.
- L notifies Light about his father, thus proving that he is indeed on the task force.
- Light's father blows L's cover and even uses the name "Ryuzaki" in front of Light.
- "Ryuzaki" is only supposed to be used within the task force.
- L does not mind that Light's father just blew his cover.

The only way for this sequence of events to make sense is if the whole thing is staged.

Lol atleast the tennis match wasn't as dramatic as the "POTATO CHIPS!".

I dont know, compared to the manga the anime seems to be going at a much faster pace. We've already gotten up to the videos for the news station.

Next ep looks promising.

The tennis match was pretty dramatic, but they were both very good tennis players, and like L said they both are childish and hate to lose. Really, it would be best for Light to just opt out of the investigation, avoid L, and keep doing his thing. It would be almost impossible to catch him. But of course he won't do that...

As for the yaoi part? Meh, it's just silliness and pornography, staples of the internet. And like there's not yuri of pretty much every popular female character. Let them have their fun, it doesn't need to bother you any.

Also this gives us some more of Light's amusing logic: "If I do this will he think I'm Kira? But if I don't maybe he'll think I'm Kira but I'm deliberately trying to throw him off the scent, which is true, so maybe I should..."

I don't know if this will show up, but here's Light's most recent chat log...

[Kraco]

Let's have a closer look at the tapes...

Episode 11 - TW

[Yukimura]

Excellent, now we have a crazy chick with the Shinigami eyes coming out of left field...I definitely wouldn't have seen that coming... If Light plays this right he might be able to use this girl as a patsy if L gets too close.

Also we had more dramatic camera work, this time the Dance of the Two Cell Phones, very breathtaking.

[Aeon]

Was that the same death god that left for the human world a couple eps ago or could we have the potential for a 3rd Kira? The voice of this one didn't match up to any I remember.

[Kraco]

There is at least one thing this fake kira realised and then calculated correctly: She doesn't have the wits to avoid getting caught in the long run, if she does anything major (like she has), so it made no difference to make the eye deal. Her estimated life span won't probably reach even that what would have otherwise been left after the deal.

Interesting plot development, though. Certainly explains how they can fill the rest of the episodes of the extra long season.

[Knives122]

Isn't that cute? A Fake Kira(Misa) did some crap to get Light's attention and is practically obsessed with him. But wait there's more, she has the whole "I will kill you if you don't return my feelings" mentaility. It's like the perfect love story.

Don't you just love that sort of stuff?

[stratosthegreek]

This episode knocked my socks off. Thoroughly got into it it again. Series is for sure a winner. Can not wait to see what happens next. That chick looks like shes waiting to pull out a huge knife and stab Light in the back when he doesn't return her calls...psycho.

DN 11 by Live-evil

Yet another awesome ep, the twists just keep on coming!

[darkshadow]

lol that cellphone scene was awesome, drama ftw XD

[Psyke]

How did Misa know that Light doesn't have the Shinigami eyes?

[Knives122]

She probably made an educated guess about Light's crusade to become a god and deducted that Light wouldn't want to make such a deal.

That or magic.

[xDarkMaster]

Or if she is really obsessed with him she could have figured the same thing as L, that he needs a face and a name to kill, which wouldn't make a difference if he had the eyes.

[Yukimura]

She probably deduced it from the way he does things. He's never done something that would require the eyes so she probably thinks that he doesn't have them.

EDIT: I guess I should refresh the page before making a post.

[Psyke]

I don't really think Misa's as smart as L or Light, and so I don't think she figured it her herself. I'd be impressed if she does though. Another theory is that the Shinigami know each other, and that the new shinigami knows that Ryuk did not give the eyes to Light.

[Darknodin]

it'd be cool if she was as smart... or close... that would make an interesting three-sided war (or more, if shinigami's decide that this is a new way to have fun)

[darkmetal505]

Well she killed the police who were trying to enter the station. Maybe she just promotes killing in general and wanted Light's tapes to be played.

[xDarkMaster]

Another theory is that the Shinigami know each other, and that the new shinigami knows that Ryuk did not give the eyes to Light.

I thought they were supposed to be neutral. Even if the new shinigami knew, I doubt he would tell her as that would mean he is helping her.

Maybe she just promotes killing in general and wanted Light's tapes to be played.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought they are her tapes and she just used them to get people's attention.

[Darknodin]

The tapes weren't Light's.... she made em

EDIT: beaten to it
