    Is it just me or did they skip a big part in the anime?

    Great episode, just one thing:

    I must have forgotten that one, but...where did the 3rd deathnpote come from?
    One from Ryuuk, one from Rem, and the 3rd? Yeah, it was this new Shinigami´s deathnote, but where did the deathnote come from?

    Damn, that new Shinigami was totally useless even if he looked somewhat badass. What a loser...

    Well, anyway, there is one thing I don't understand: Why didn't M kill Light and all the Japanese team? They happily killed the American team, after all. Honestly, finding out the names of the Japanese team should have been a lot easier, seeing how it has been around for such a long time and everything. And of course they also knew Light's sister's name. This is just a detail I can't explain no matter how much I try. Unless M wants to beat Light by other means, but that'd be a bit unequal battle seeing how Light uses the Note as much as he can.

    It's highly probable M wants a total war and total win.
    He wants to put N and Light to his knees, prove he is the best among all others, even better than L. There's that, and probably the need to play with the preys before killing them.

    Wow...this ep rocked hard.

    We see a lot from it. Light is completely soul less. He knew his dad was going to die the minute we saw the words Father as the title. He knew his father was going to do the shinigami deal (he didn't protest it!) and all he wanted was his father to kill Mello. Now heres my Q...how did Light know what his father was doing without sound? It's alot easier to mic someone then to attach a camera! oh well.

    Now mello is running around knowing a key fact.. those rules are fake. Since he wants to be called the true successor of L, he's going to want to unearth who Kira is. Well...if he somehow picks up L's research it will easily point to Light, that was L's last line of deduction.

    Damn, this series just gets better and better. Near, where are you??

    Yes.... you're right. I thought some thing was missing as well, and went back to check. It's missing the quite a few scenes..... involving the President of the United States of America. I'm not sure whether this was deliberately taken out due to political reasons...., but the parts which were cut were really good stuff.

    maybe his objective is to actually capture Kira/Light before N.



    Light really did a good job of planning his moves in this episode, especially giving up ownership of the note so his dad would be able to die happy thinking his son was innocent.

    I agree.

    Because Light thought in himself this was a little bonus to his fake innocence.
    If he had planned this, he wouldn't have thought that way at that moment.

    In the same scene, I find that Light is very pathetic because is only aim is for his father
    to kill M... and he clearly doesn"t care about his father dying...

    I disagree. Like I said, Light knew his father was going to die, it was inevitable. It was his life or Sayus and he chose Sayu's. I believe he did plan up giving the note as he also expected his father to do the deal with Ryuk. He did this as a parting gift for his father, a last moment of peace before he passed away. This is evident with his reactions 'I can't look like this, I must seem concerned' or something when his father was dying.

    The reason he gave up ownership was because he knew someone was about to receive the eyes, therefore would have seen that he didn't have a lifespan.

    It had nothing to do with his Father.

    his life or sayu`s? i think youre lost, sayu`s life was not in danger here, as a little side note, he expected matsuda to do the deal, they cut that part and his reaction was that it was good for him but not what he planned.

    If I'm not mistaken:

    1st one's from Ryuk - Light's death note.
    2nd ones from Jealous - Misa's death note.
    3rd one's from Rem - Rem's own death note, Light picked it up when she died.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Light has a pretty funny personality, because usually he's totally cool and internally gleeful and gloating in his sense of superiority, but always with those weird geniuses from orphanages he suddenly shifts to 120% gear and is boiling inside, as if he's sure to lose, despite his past achievements and superior plots.

    I just watched the "father" episode. Just one thing that was weird. So when Light's father did the deal he just had like a couple of hours left to live or what?

    Seems too me that Misa should have reacted to him having such a short lifespan.

    I think those lifespans are meaningless as long as there's a Death note anywhere near. It doesn't indicate the shortened life of a death note victim, and so in that sense anyone who's going to be killed or saved just related to a Death note can't show a correct lifespan, either. For example, if an active serial killer shows 3 years lifespan "naturally", and is killed with the Death note earlier, all his future victims' lifespans would suddenly shoot up.

    Light's father's demise was so entangled in the note business that his lifespan numbers should have been meaningless.

    The shinigami eyes only let the user see the names, and without the Shinigami's help, he/she is unable to decode the seemingly random numbers which represents the person's remaining life span.

    Well, I'm sure Light or Near, being such geniuses as they are, would be able to do that easily enough should they try... After all, the shinigami so far have hardly shown any remarkable mental faculties (quite the contrary), so deciphering them can't be hard, you know.
