Did you not notice from the above? L.

I've read the spoilers... but only up to volume five or six. I know how it ends and such... I just didn't read the manga up to it. The library doesn't have enough Deathnote.

Hilarious ne?
I love the one where Near steals Matt's credit card to buy things. "I have white hair. How old do you think sonny?" That was funny. Along with Near messing with everyone too.

You should put a spoiler warning for the tittle of the thread.
A lot of teens seem to thing Light's the hero. I've spoken with friends of my teen who say they'd love to live in that world he creates (Scared of them). THey fail to see the author gives him a number of major character flaws.
It is a fascinating depiction of the old "Power corrupts & Absolute power corrupts absolutely" It seems almost uniquely Japanese in that Light is VERY much the stereotypical detatched brainy student we've seen dozens of times before in manga & anime. I think had an American created it, it would have been a very different story-more self-serving maybe.
another note Light obviously got far more enjoyment out of his relationship with L than his relationship with Misa. By that Granted, his relationship with Misa was fake and really a plot to get at L. I'd think more of Light as asexual... Maybe auto-sexual.
more on my rant later

I think if it was done by an American, they'd screw it up.
I think of Light as straight, but having a girlfriend really isn't that high of a priority. He only takes more interest in his relationship with L because he's more intellectual, Light wants to kill him (which is a high priority), but it isn't an attraction or sexual thing. He can't go off with Misa when he wants to kill L. Of course he's going to try to become closer to L than others. He just sees Misa as a tool anyway.
