I find it funny when atheists defend Light. On one hand they don't believe in no god who determines what man is allowed to do and what is considered good and evil.

On other hand they defend average Japanese high schooler who lords over people and kills them according to his perception of what's good and evil.

I won't say Light is objectively wrong, I am just saying that I wouldn't want Japanese high schooler being able to kill any man he wants with zero repercussions just because he thought it's the right way to do, might as well agree to work for food because my chief says so.

Because people were afraid and/or jelly of his power. It was also going against rules of society.
For most part he was right, but he also had human weaknesses, that made him kill people out of sheer fear of being discovered.
I do believe such person would actually make world better place. From semirecent history of my country, there was guy, who was pretty much tyrant. He tried to win election and lost, so he gathered officers that were loyal to him and took contol of country with force.
Now he is reminiscent as one of better rulers, because country was in shit, but he made it stood up on its own legs.
>>
>>144140393
But he was just killing people who were already sentenced to jail according to the law. Without counting in probability of rehabilitation and wrongly accused.

And then he started killing people on his trail, who actually never committed a crime, they were just in his way.

So, complete tyranny is a right way to go?

You do know a lot of innocent people blamed for a crime they didn't commit get jailed every year because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time right?

You do know there is a long history of people executed only to be found out they were innocent years after their death only to get "pardoned" to clean their name for their families afterwards right?

Not everything is black and white.
>>
>>144138561
Its literally the most predictable "I have a black and white view of justice" situation I have every seen.
One could argue he was 'in the right' until he started killing investigators who were just doing their jobs. They weren't criminals. They were trying to catch a 'criminal'

Light started 'good' and became 'bad' at the drop of a fucking hat because he literally can't figure out any way out of situations besides "I'LL KILL EVERYONE"

Light wasn't smart he just had a deus ex machina notebook that lets him kill people getting close to him.

What's sad is that edgelords thinks this is the "absolute amazing anime XD" cause because they are mostly bullied in school and they just want to get back at their bullies without repercussion of them EVER getting caught.

How do you even get caught in that situation? You'd have to be a complete fool to even get close to being caught.
>>
He was a tyrant and a megalomaniac. One could say power corrupted him but judging by his attitude at the beginning you could see that he was a megalomaniac even then. He murdered plenty of innocents along with the guilty and used a lot of people as pawns in his game against the law enforcement. If he had stuck to criminals this MIGHT be more open to debate but even then you'd have to take into account the number of people who were had likely been falsely accused. It wasn't even about cleaning up anything to him, it was about playing God. L issues one little challenge at the beginning and it sends Light into the deep end where everything is expendable, even his own family.

Light was not and never, EVER will be right.
>>
>>144138561
He's just killing petty crooks and not corrupt politicians and white collar criminals.

All he's doing is trying to cure the symptoms, rather than the causes.
>>
>>144141567
Stop killing while the heat blows over?
Change his "hurr durr everyone dies of a heart attack it was me IT WAS ME" tactics?
Stop writing down names in his hosue when he knows its been bugged? Why couldn't he grab a newspaper, read it in the library and write down a few names? ITs against the law in japan for a student to read the newspaper and take notes?

He just goes through so many pants on head retarded hoops to 'outwit' L and the police.
>>
>>144141661
>not corrupt politicians and white collar criminals.

He did.
>>
>>144141632
Just because you have high grades in school doesn't mean shit in the real world. His plan was complete bullshit and only worked cause of all the coincidences that happened. You do know the probability of him succeeding was extremely low right if everything didn't fall into place perfectly which in real life you do know that never happens. The Japs don't really know the concept of Murphy's Law.
>>
>>144141743
He never got caught doing any of thay shit and having people die while L thinks he's doing homework is a smart move as there's no proof he did shit.

Also you are forgetting Light was trying to rule the world by fear of some entity so he was purposely killing people the same way to get their attention.

Can't even really call him retarded for this as it worked in the end for him if you ignore the filler post L arc.

Personally, I thought it was a cool series with a falling "hero" and a very likable "antagonist".

Then the antagonist died.

I recognized MOST kiddies liked it because the Death Note struck them as cool, but I'm just saying it DID have other merits.

There was barely any proof he could do it in the first place.
As long as no one found out about the notebook L couldn't do shit to Light.

He's going to go to the court and go "Yes your honor this young man had a list of the criminals who were killed and magically caused them to have heart attacks"
>>
>>144141798
>You do know the probability of him succeeding was extremely low right if everything didn't fall into place perfectly which in real life you do know that never happens.

No it was GUARENTEED to work.

Light knows he's gonna work with L and knows L will want to catch Kira and then investigate the death note when they get it since he needs to know what it is.

Since Light is obviously gonna contribute a lot to the case he's gonna get a hand at the death note at somepoint and he has a piece of paper hidden in his watch so he can kill off the thug and regain his memories quickly.

The thug also wouldn't be able to say anything too much about the note as Light knows Rem would kill the guy as Misa would get found out again. Light also had the rules rewritten too make sure L would be forced to accept he can't hold Light or Misa in any suspicion.

So yeah, don't know why you're acting like he had some tiny chance when it would have worked out 1 way or the other.

Light beating L WAS supposed to be the ending and everything pretty much seemed towards an ending and then the guys were forced to continue shit out of their choice.

Why didn't Light just us the Death Note to kill every single criminal on Death Row and every single inmate incarcerated for a Violent Crime or Murder? No need to kill for White Collar shit.
>>
>>144138561
His reasoning is reductive, over-simplified, edgy, and not well thought out. Crime is a complex thing. People often don't commit crime for the sake of committing crime. Certainly there are those that do but many do not. The world that he made was not better. It was ruled by fear. This does not mean everything was right or fair. What about actions of individuals that are immoral but are not considered crimes? The exploitation of workers, wage gap, and other social issues prevalent in society that are often created from seemingly crime-less actions of individuals in a capitalist society in general. What about authoritarianism? Where is the line drawn? Light didn't fix the world. He just shoved all the glaring flaws of the world in a closet of fear and called it "a clean world." It wasn't at all. There's a difference between law and morality is what I'm saying. Questions of law are strictly objective and based on the books. However, question of morality are more complicated. Light could not differentiate that because of his ego. Law is only a reflection of society's moral principles not the moral principles themselves.
>>
All the people hating on Light sure conveniently forget that he was straight up murdered without ever being judged

It actually isn't relevant to criticizing his actions. Just because somebody is a bad guy doesn't mean he can't be wronged, and just because somebody is wrong doesn't mean he can't be a bad guy. That's what Light logic fails to recognize.

You would need an ego larger than the sun to fall for such low-tier bait.

Light is the Law and Order the world needs.

Just look at our current world. You've got terrorist organizations like ISIS running amok over the world bombing and murdering people over religion. Western culture and civilization is clasping. People are dumb as fuck and apathetic and cowards to everything to the point that there is no outcry for a criminal like Hillary Clinton. You've got civil unrest with Black Lives Matter that wants a race war against Whites like what you saw in Dallas and they are not interested in peace and only want anarchy. You've got the kikes trying to create their new world order through globalism and want to destroy any sense of individuals and identity by suppressing free speech and labeling anyone that disagrees as "crazies". You've got cultural Marxism invading school systems and the people in them are taught to tolerate evil because they "dindu nuffin" and that the problems is because of White patriarchy. You've got rampant sjws and feminist destroying males and turning them into betas and think everything is "sexist" and politically correct.

Light was doing the right thing resetting the degeneracy that was falling upon humanity and there is nothing wrong with killing which is not the same as murder.
>>
>>144142536
The cops put down a threat. This happens every day in their line of work. Light went for a piece of note he hadden and got shot for it, no different than if someone went for a gun when the cops told him to stand down.

And ultimately it was Ryuk who killed him.
>>
>>144138561
Light would have done far more good if he had just killed George Soros and the Rotchilds. Treating the symptoms and ignoing the cause is why everything went back to how it was before he got the death note when he died. If he had just killed of the Globalists, he would have actually made the world a better place.

>>144142755
Seriously, Light's best course of action was consistently to do nothing, which is the exact opposite of what he did.

L challenges him on TV? Do nothing. Bunch of feds enter the country looking for you? Do nothing. Second Kira spouting off? Do nothing. L would never have been able to catch him if he had just stopped putting his fucking foot in it.

You're absolutely right, that "don't" make sense, retard.

You have a series, you intend for it to end in a particular way, but after a while you need it to go on for longer. So you insert material in the middle to stretch it out. This isn't fucking rocket science.

Light was a Nationalist and would at the very least protect his people from the trash of society. There is a reason why those third world countries are trash and it isn't because there is some boogyman keeping them down. They're the way they are because their values are not compatite with first world nations. Third World nations lack virtues and are cowards. You can see that with Syrian Refugees where the so called "Refugees" are mostly males between 18-30 and yet they're not helping to fight to protect for their homeland. Why the hell would any first world nation want those kinds of cowards and no virtues to be accepted into any first world nation?

>>144143123
His actions created a ripple affect that would solidified for future generations over the world.

Nobody said that. People are saying that Light was never intended to win at the end. That's it.

Do try to follow along here.

Thats assuming L knew Light's location. But if he hadn't fell for the Linda L Tailor bait, he wouldn't have any clue of where Light was.

>>144143442
well L already narrowed down the search to Lights town and down to Raye Penber's list. it'd take literally an afternoon to lock light up.

I'd say "what makes you think Light was meant to win", but I know you'll just respond with some barely intelligible gibberish about how L lost and that proves Light was always going to win.

He was published in Shonnen Jump. Light had to lose at the end, or be reformed. He couldn't kill people and keep getting away with it.

It's like in Reversi from Bakuman, from the same author.

This was assuming Light did nothing from the beginning.

By Light's own admission very early on in the series, he's evil.
>>
>>144143804
True then it would be just him killing off fags for 100+ chapters without getting caught

There should be a VN of this shit. Way too many choices and options Light had.
>>
Light was always meant to beat L but he was always going to die at the end. Ryuk told him that in like the 5th chapter. When it was all done Ryuk was gonna kill him. The original ending was probably Light killing L then Ryuk killing Light soon after instead of much later after the Near stuff.

This.

Imagine.

Light Celebrating that he beat L after ages just to die soon after.

Would have been hilarious.
>>
>>144143109
L should've had a bomb vest that detonated upon death. He knew that Kira was close to him physically. The others would surely have died if L lost anyway, become more monstrous than the monster you're trying to kill.

But he would've known that they would die anyway, since once L died Kira would have no real mental opponent but would want to cover his tracks by killing those involved. It's a cold calculating decision, very L-like.

Probably would have been screaming and crying about how he needed to live to rule his brand new perfect world.

He never trusted her completely and was manipulating the fuck out of her. You can see how he never cared when she said she forgot L's name because he knows relying on people like her 100% isn't worth it.
>>
>>144144551
Women mess up things. They would fuck up like Misa very quickly.
>>
>>144138561
Because a person can't decide the fate of another person. It's hard to tell what deserves death and what doesn't. It's necessary to have many knowledge and have lived a lot for deciding the fate of a person. I personally think that Light was doing good, but not everyone can do that. its the position of a superjudge.

Perhaps I was unclear.

I was referring to income inequality in generality.

Well for me I liked him more just because of how weird he is. I love the childish style of him. When he's doing his work he's playing with toys. and that one scene where he makes Rester come back to New York because he doesn't want to ride the air plane to Japan alone. Stuff like that.

He's a lot like L in his mannerisms too so he's kinda L-ish to begin with

Its a world where death gods exist... they are really easy to trick.

He has knowledge on a weakness they aren't prepared to fight. I bet with enough planning he could gather 1,000 years from one of them self sacrificing.

Additionally theres nothing to suggest he couldn't become a death god or at least obtain their power.

Light stopped giving a shit about justice very early on. All he cared about was being some godlike figure, by killing anyone who broke the law.

Hell, had he actually cared about justice, even a bit, he would have got the eyes. But no, he thought himself above that, and had a pair of retards get the eyes instead.

>>144138561
At first he did good, but he over did it by time when he started to kill innocent people who were in his way. He also confirmed he wanted to kill the old, the sick or the NEETs because they aren't useful for society.
The he fucked up when he felt into L's trap with the fake L in the TV. He just killed him because "I disagree with you Kira". That's fucking wrong mate. I put himself above his own laws and lost his integrity this way.
>>
Because murder is murder, no matter what.
Power simply makes might, not right.

It's a very simple matter of morality and in his case his actions are incredibly immoral.

If you believe in a free society for the people by the people in which no one is above or makes the law then you cannot justify or condone his actions.

Light was a psychopath at his core and most psychopaths are pretty arrogant and easily b8ed since they think they're invincible. Obviously it would have been smart not to fall for L's tricks but at that point it was just a matter of ego more than ideals.

It was never about ideals for Light really. It may have been at one point but it's clear he just got off to playing God and winning cat and mouse games of death. If not for the notebook he probably would have eventually started killing people one time or another.
>>
>>144154580
>Light was a psychopath at his core
He wasn't. that was the point when he lost his memories, I think.
We saw Light could be someone who could pursue justice relentlessly and was a decent person overall.

The whole point of the Death Note was that Light was completely corrupted by being given a power a human being shouldn't have.
>>
>>144154832
i remember near the end of Yotsuba arc Light was agreeing with "Kira's" ways.
>>
>>144154832

It was left pretty ambiguous actually, at times he had doubts whether he was Kira or not. Somewhere deep down he had feelings like that. But I concede that, given that type of power, people's psychology would change drastically. I suppose it's fair to say that he had those sorts of feelings and ideals a little bit but the Deathnote simply dragged out what was already there and enhanced it or gave him actual power to carry it out.

Sadly, Anon is right. Ever played the Ace Attorney series? That's not much of an exaggeration, of Japanese justice save the part that innocent people get let free.
