However, that was not the case when Raye wrote the names of every FBI persons present in japan. Death Note Season 1 Episode 5Īre you familiar with the working of Death note? Well, its basic concept is that it requires the writer to remember the faces while writing. What do you think of this plot hole? Do let me know your thoughts in the comments section given at the end of this post. Aren’t they? That’s the only thing I could not digest in this episode. A Shinigami is supposed to live centuries. So, that means, Rem had only 6 years to live. Near's lack of emotional attachment is partly of why he catches Kira, while L failed.That’s just 6 additional years. He knows detachment will lead to victory, but L cannot convey to them that he's incapable of it himself. What he tells his orphan admirers is, at most, a half-truth. L knows his feelings hinder his progress on the job.
He develops a genuine friendship with Light over the course of the Kira case, changes his unethical investigation methods when his team objects, and feels genuine sorrow when Ukita, one of the task force members, is killed. But L, likely to his own chagrin, never fully disengages from his emotions. In the Death Note one-shot special, L tells his potential replacements he works for the thrill of solving puzzles, not out of a particular desire to help anyone.
This, according to Redditor u/Azmek, is why L lies to the orphans at Wammy's House about his motivation for solving cases. As he gains experience, he learns the importance of approaching cases with little-to-no emotional involvement - in matters of life and death, getting too involved often results in self destruction. The start of his career remains unclear all we know is that he was an orphan and that this job likely wasn't his choice, but Watari's. L starts working as a detective at the tender age of eight. Some fans hypothesize Near's hair is the result of albinism, a group of disorders in which the body produces little-to-no melanin.
Near Has Albinism: Near sports white hair, a trait that wouldn't be remarkable if he existed in a different anime. But Death Note has a fairly realistic art style. Some people believe that L and Near approach their interpersonal relationships and their detective work in ways consistent with the autism spectrum. Autistic people may exhibit atypical and repetitive movements, a deep focus on a narrow range of special interests and non-standard ways of solving problems. Near And L Are Autistic: According to the Autism Self Advocacy Network, "Autism is a neurological variation that occurs in about one percent of the population and is classified as a developmental disability." It makes typical modes of social interaction difficult for patients. Light Has Antisocial Personality Disorder: Antisocial Personality Disorder, sometimes called sociopathy, is a " mental condition in which a person consistently shows no regard for right and wrong and ignores the rights and feelings of others." Light exhibits many of the symptoms of APD, though he was generally well-behaved and showed some empathy until power dramatically warped his personality. Though he never suffers debilitating health issues in life (as far as we know), L does have a curved spine and long, spider-like fingers. It also causes threatening issues in the lungs, heart, and nervous system. L Has Marfan Syndrome: Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder with a variety of symptoms, including spidery hands and scoliosis, a sideways curvature of the spine. Over the years, the Death Note fandom has diagnosed various characters with certain medical and mental ailments. These are the most popular ones:
