This Is How I Expected Kira To Look Like

(VERY loooooong entry, i haf many things about tis to tok about...)

Or at least, tis is as close to the reality as possible... Someone like tt, i am sure there are still tonnes of gorgeous, tall, well built, cool artistes in e entertainment industry besides Gackt... Lol...

Not toking about Gackt, it jus came to my mind... I dun mind him being Kira, but he wouldnt be able to pull it off, especially e smart looking part and e amazing communication skills part... Oops, dun smash me, dears (gackt's fans community)...


Winner from e 2nd Death Note fan art competition... Supposed to be European perspective... Raito/Light as a Caucasian... Click to view e larger size, bigger one looks nicer...

Anyways, I took 2 nights to finish e remaining 5 books... I overestimated my reading speed of tis long n tedious manga (long as in content)... Lol... I spent about 4 hrs plus reading e last 2 1/2 books... It is tt heavy...

I like tis manga, one of the better ones tt ive read so far... I understood y it was tt popular... I knew it was popular, but i didnt noe it was tt famous... Haha... I feel happy having read it in the end after a yr plus of postponing... Although i felt rather sad at e tragic ending... *spoiler*

It is gd tt i waited anyways, since e last chapter was completed in may tis yr...

Having said tt, it is a very controversial manga and u really haf to read it wif a open mind... Otherwise, u would agonise over e contents... Its apparent e manga is catered more for males... As u can tell Kira is very sexist and often thot females are stupid trash (intelligence wise) and extremely predictable and can be easily manipulated by sweet n appropriate words/mind games...

So females reading these, they would generally get very worked up over how e females are being made used of and often killed in the end for stupid loyalty in tis series... We r not like tt in real life, i hope? Okok, joking joking... But on a serious note, i cant deny a portion of females r known to be like tt, which is y how some others view females tis way anyways...

Sexual discrimation is every where even in these days (especially occupational wise), even in Singapore, our bright peaceful sunny island... I hope u gals dun encounter tt though...

Strangely, the author Tsugumi Ohba of Death Note is female... But ppl r speculating e identity of tt author... Some agreed tt she is actually Hiroshi Gamou, a well known male manga writer, others also thot tt she is actually Yuuko Asami, a shonen jump female artist... Either way, theres no way we can find out...

I thot tt its quite strange if e writer is indeed female, coz e story's pt of view is very sexist in all areas... U can sense tt... E writer is a male without a doubt, otherwise shes a person who understand males very well and wanted her 1st manga series catered for guys...

It is also strongly speculated that the character "L" in e story is based on Ohba him/herself... If its so, i haf even more reasons to believe Ohba is a He...

I thot it would be interesting to see both sexes battle out each other wif their wits... I mean like y cant e nemesis be a female, an extremely intelligent n talented one? But i doubt tis will happen in Japan... Y do all e females haf to be underlings? Tts so pathetic... I haf no idea whether to call Kira or L/Mello/Near as nemesis... They r all in e grey area, no one is gd or bad...

Having said tt, i dun really care about e displacement of females in the content... Coz its a good story on e bigger picture...

Tis manga was banned in China, for obvious reasons... They claimed tt e manga creates evil in itself... I dun deny tt seriously... I am sure a young one would be influenced by some theories in the story... If u dun really understand e story, u would generally get e idea tt, if u attained a power to kill, it is ok to kill those who u judged as bad or evil...

But e story is not like tt... Not everyone would be able to judge so called effectively... The power was given to many characters in the book... Everybody strayed off into their own judgement and tainted Kira's initial intention... Tt alone showed how ugly humans are...

I wouldnt let my own young children to read tis as well, wouldnt wan them to grow up as psycopathic serial killers, passing their own justice... Lol... Tt wouldnt happen obviously...

To stop evil using murder is very sensitive, just like how all those ppl who act or are good ppl, saying death execution shd be banned all tt... There would be ppl who would be turned off by tis theory, but there would also be ppl who looked at the bigger picture and said its inevitable...

Honestly, all these ppl who say deadly criminals shd not be executed, i wonder how they feel when they watch super heroes movies... Even superheroes kill their enemies... I didnt even hear anyone complained to me "superman shouldnt kill", "its not right to kill a person, even if tt person is evil and killed many others, we shd give them a chance"...

*Spoilers* Actually wat e heck wif spoilers anyways, for me, even if i noe e complete story, i would still read/watch e actual thing... Coz experiencing it urself u get a different feel... Hearing n reading it off others isnt e same thing... But tts jus me, i noe i noe...

E story has 2 arc...

1stly its e Kira(Light/Raito) and L arc...

Death Note is about tis realm of Shinigamis... They can reach the human world and kill humans by simply writing their names in their notebook... If only e name is written, e person will die of heart attack in 40s, otherwise u can also control and state how n when e person would die but only up till a max of 23 days... There are some other rules as well... The only reason y they would kill u is so tt they prolong their own lives (wtf!!! we r like toys!!!)... They generally dun die but theres still ways for them to die especially if they r lazy...

But unlike Bleach, e shinigamis are not a bunch of gd looking dudes n bishounens... They are scary, creepy, rotten monsters wif wings... Their Death God world is a dry dessert wif ruins n skeletons... They dun need to eat, but apples are like cigarrettes/alcohol to them, they behave weirdly if they dun haf one... But in their world, apples tastes like sand... So our apples in real world tastes heavenly...

So tis bored shinigami tricked e king of shinigamis and owned 2 notebooks... He decided to drop one in human world for fun... The 1st human who picked e book, can use e power and kill ppl... However, u can only kill a person if u noe e name n face... But if u trade half ur lifespan wif e shinigami, u can get e eyes of shinigamis, whereby u can see the lifespan n name of others jus by looking at them... U cant see ur own and other notebook users though...

Yagami Light, 17, picked the notebook... Hes e top scorer of his reputable sch, very smart and very bored as well... He found out e secret fr e shinigami, actually basic instructions r written in the book as well... Only those who touch e book can see e shinigamis...

He wanted to cure tis rotten world, and started his plan to create his ideal, peaceful, righteous world by using e power of tis death note... Some ppl started worshipping his ideals, and called him Kira(Killer)... Of coz, e top detective of tis world L, took on tis case and they began a cat n mouse chase...

Then after a long procress, sigh, L died, his death kept under secret, Kira took over L's position and became invincible... I absolutely love e way Kira defeated L... Its so amazing... Kira was many steps ahead but he also ultimately really respected L in the end... He realised nobody could be compared to L, just tt a competition of wits n pride btw them, death was e price...

L did mentioned tt Light if not being Kira, can truly becum L's successor... I am sure, e seconds be4 he died, he still thot tt way...

Its kinda confusing Light and L haf e same initials, most of e time when i said Light, ppl thot i said L... Haha...

Tis arc is done very well, simple and neatly composed... I think all mangas start out well wif enthusiasm soaring...

2nd arc tok abouts Kira against Mellow n Near who were supposed to be e rightful successors of L... Did u realise tt its L M N? I thot its very funny when i realised it for e 1st time, i wonder was it intended...

Tis arc isnt done very well... Although its also wittyly gd, but e progress was too tedious, i had a hard time following e story, coz sometimes it too dry... Maybe trying to read all at one time isnt a gd suggestion... Readin a book at a time for mths might solve e prob...

It was abit draggy... Theres nothing much going on except conversations n conversations, analysis n analysis... I mean e 1st arc is like tis as well, but somehow it wasnt as boring... Maybe e characters were flowing very well...

But 2nd arc is more complicated... They spent a long time in the US... There are tonnes n tonnes of characters... The story involved more ppl, n countries...

Many ppl were killed in tis one... Mello was killed as well, although e true cause of death is somehow intrigueing... Many ways to look at it... But nobody haf any evidence...

Of coz, Kira's death, *BIG SIGH* sealed e fate of e whole story... E better world he created, returned to its rotten state as be4... Wars would be aroused, politicians/govt into corruption, the underworld doing their crimes, ppl returned to their evil n selfish beings, etc... All the books were destroyed... Near became e new L...

All of them were in e grey area... No doubt Kira killed ppl to create his better world, his utopia, L/Mello/Near also killed n sacrifice ppl along e way to catch him... Its e same... No right or wrong, jus a matter of which side u take... Taking e LMN side doesnt make u any less evil, coz u were also taking lives and e world returned to its original state, and crime rate increased, thereby more ppl were killed... Everyone's e same...

The shinigami revealed in the 2nd last chapter tt, there is no heaven or hell in reality... Death is equal, after u die, its nothing... Tts a pretty sad way of ending e story... There is no judgement... There is no kharma... The only way to judge was destroyed...

Everybody live a certain way due to afterlife and kharma, if death is equal, everybody would haf led their lives differently in their only 1 life time of existance... Anyways, tts only e world in e story...

Bleach world worst lor... In Bleach, after u die, u randomly go to tis place called Soul Society, depending on ur luck, u might end up in e worst n poorest state, and then when u live there, u continue to live, work, grow, u start to form ur own new families... U dun eat but u need to drink to survive... If u unlucky live in e worst state, then u would haf to commit crimes to steal water...

Just tt you can be killed if they catch u... Even if u dun do anything, there would still be rotten ppl in soul society who bully n kill ppl for fun... If u avoid all these, u would be able to live, drink, work, sleep for thousands of yrs... But then u could be stricken wif diseases as well, so make sure u drink more water n be healthy... Lol, tts my own line, e drink more water part...

If u suay get killed, nvm... U reincarnate back to ur original world... Tis is how e world maintain their balance...

How cool is tt? U get to carry on living for thousands of yrs after u die in another place, though u might end up being a begger... Then u slog(work) forever for e sake of water... If u are extremely lucky and haf strong spiritual power, u can upgrade urself to Shinigami Royal Palace, live in luxury and can eat food somemore... Otherwise, its back to living in ur town for wat seems like eternity...

Urgh, wat crap... Otherwise, its a gd manga minus e bounto arc in anime...
