It serves as a prequel to the manga series, with Mello narrating the story of L's first encounter with Naomi Misora during the Los Angeles "BB Serial Murder Case" mentioned in volume 2 of the manga. Chained Heat: Still distrusting of Light, L mandates that he must remain handcuffed to him and Misa as a means of surveillance, much to their annoyance.

Near kept millions of dollars ready to be dropped from the top of a skyscraper at the press of a button, just in case a Torches and Pitchforks mob attacks his secret hideout. Death Notes were originally conceived as changing based on time and location, resembling scrolls in ancient Japan, or the Old Testament in medieval Europe.On June 12, 2015, the Chinese Ministry of Culture listed Death Note among 38 anime and manga titles banned in China. As suspicion falls again on Misa, Light passes Misa's Death Note to a fervent supporter of Kira, Teru Mikami. As criminals around the world die from inexplicable accidents and heart attacks, the global media suggest that a single mastermind is responsible for the mysterious murders and name them "Kira" ( キラ, the Japanese transliteration of the word "killer"). Deciding that this design would be cumbersome, he instead opted for a more accessible college notebook.

It doesn't count as a Xanatos Gambit because, while the plan was flexible, several aspects relied on people acting predictably. He casually explains he needs the high calories for high intelligence, but it nonetheless demonstrates how much calmer L takes on Kira compared to his colleagues.The film L: Change the World was also adapted into a light novel with the same name on December 25, 2007, by "M", [50] While the novel is similar to the film, there are many significant changes to the plot (for example, Near is not a Thai boy, but the same Near that appears in the manga).

A cult following soon arises around the mysterious assassin killing off criminals across the country, christening him "Kira" (a Japanese Ranguage approximation of " killer").The player will attempt to deduce who their enemy is (Kira will try to uncover L's identity and vice versa).
