Hi! I expect to have to explain this every time we upload for a side character haha - but the DNG Universe genderbends Light, L and Misa. The rest of the characters retain their original gender. We wanted to explore how this affects the relationships in the show - with Soichiro and Sayu watching their precious, studious daughter/sister become a monster, with the leading detective in the world being afab nonbinary leading a group of male detectives, with a male Misa being in love with Kira without knowing who Kira is, implying the possibility of a queer male popstar. It also changes the dynamic for Light & Misa with their Shinigami as well. Hope that helps give some context on our choices! :) - L / Kiki
I really agree with the choice to keep Sayu as a girl. Somehow hits so much harder to have her idolise her big sister 😭😭💔 also thanks for still covering songs that dont feature the genderbent characters, cuz these covers are really good and i love this musical
Sayu and Fem!Kira is such an interesting dynamic imo it adds alot to both of their characters. I think you've done an amazing job of capturing that here !

Idk if it's been planned ahead, but what about Ryuk and Rem? They could be fun to be swapped!

With Light being a female, this song suddenly feels like a female empowerment ballad. The older sister breaking ceilings for her younger sister.
How the dynamics change with these gender swaps is one of my favorite parts of doing this! :) -Kiki/L
This is such an emotional song. It really helps Light reflect on his actions, and makes his commitment to them more tragic.
Stacy's voice sure sounds nice. Ditto with the instrumental track. Like, DANG I felt hit in the feels just listening to it. 🥰
Thanks for tuning in, Toon! And for mentioning the track as well. Producing these is super fun for me! - Keeks
OMG I MISSED THIS UPLOAD ????

Unrelated but in the Japanese musical sayu says kira should be more like light in his his approach
This is absolutely beautiful!! !! you have absolutely done this song justice and you sound amazing

I love this so much! Please keep doing these, they give me life.
That's the plan! We're working on some group songs and a Rem solo rn! Thanks so much for keeping up with the project
What song will you do next?😊
We're working on Secrets & Lies, When Love Comes and a few others right now as well as some dubs!

The DNG universe genderbends Misa, Light and L. The rest of the characters retain their original gender identity! - L
