I disagree with the people saying the anime had a better ending. I think the desperation the manga shows is a perfect ending for him- nothing but stress, pain, and true human feelings.
The anime is perfect, he tries to run away but to no avail, gunshot wound and all then dies in the middle of the staircase as a metaphor for where he's going in the afterlife, the middle
To me it ended when Light killed L which I think it's a better ending, like we see in the anime Light becoming a death god killing people with no one to stop him
The manga ending is so satisfying because you've been literally going with lights, righteous bull crap God complex, for all this time for him killing out so many detectives are trying to catch him, And here he is literally cornered and now desperation he ends up getting what he deserves.
he only killed a handful f detectives, but thousands of other killers, criminals and s. assaulters which contributed to a drastic reduction of crime. Light was right. Thanos was right.
I kinda like the anime ending , the manga ending felt like the mangaka were scared of their creation , they felt the need to make light look parhetic to just show that what he was doing is evil , ending the debate if light was evil or not , and thats just coward writting , cuz the biggest thing that made death note as famous rather the L light battle , was the morality debate , cuz for many many ppl light was doing 100% good , even if he killed innocent ppl it was for the greater good , thats why i like the anime ending , when he was remembering his life before death note , he was thinking if he became like that cuz of DN or he was like that feom the begining

That's cool but i love the sweeping shot of the city, at least the little warehouse area they're in. The colors, Ryuk looking cool on the water tower. Perfection. The manga ending is still really good in how unforgiving and mocking it is to Light. So far up his own butt he genuinely thought Ryuk cared an iota about him.
I love when characters show their true colors when faced with death. In the story I'm creating, my main villain does the same thing. When he's cornered by the protagonist, he pleads for his life. Despite the horrible things he did, he begs forgiveness and tries to convince the protagonist to spare him.
I think the musical ending is even better, with Ryuk believing that only L could provide an interesting enough challenge to Light and writing his name right after L died. It solidifies how intrinsically connected they've become, with each of them quite literally being the other's reason to exist.
It may make thematic sense, but its narrative is unsatisfied as fuck. You win against your archnemesis using your brain, and then you fall down the stair case and die.

Bruh. People call Eren a crybaby and pathetic bc he let his emotions out to his childhood friend and say that the ending was horrible with it in it, but as soon as its death note, light being a coward and begging for his life people call that brilliant.
Light was an egomaniac with a God complex, getting brutally humbled down was the only right way to end the story. He may be the protagonist but he was also established as the villain right off the bat, and with everything he did up until that point, the humiliation was very much deserved.
Tbh both, Manga's and Anime's, edings are gr8. This new info. was also totes top notch, especially that was INDEED BRILLIANT AND ABSOLUTELY GENIUS of showing 2 blank pages. ❤❤❤❤
I prefer the anime personally because it seems more like Light All throughout the anime and Manga we see Light perfectly fine with The idea of dying he gives rem permission to kill him if misa isn't saved and also in the beginning of the anime, he makes a comment to ryuk Saying it's either I get executed or I deal with a house fire showing that he's aware he will be executed if he's caught the main thing that I like about The anime ending is that his follower kills himself. In order for light to escape and light ends up going into a quiet place, probably knowing that Ryuk is going to kill him and he goes out in silence it just seems more like Light.
But, what about the shinigami eyes deal? He said the wouldn't want to reduce his life span just to make the process of eliminating his foes easier. He also added that he wanted to remain "The god of the world" for a long time.
I mean, you see him with all this composture when he has things under his control. What I saw was a coward who view himself as superior than everyone, and developed/nurtured this superiority/god complex when he accidentaly got access to otherworldly powers. You can see how he value his life over others in the way he uses Misa like a pawn, he didnt struck the eye deal himself and put her life on the line to get L. Despite claiming to be the best on that battle of wits with L, you see how he was actually outmatched and scared when he makes his first mistake, and how much trouble he got while having access to supernatural powers. And at the end of the day, it was all a facade, that so calm, fearless, godly and self righteous man, was, at the end of it, just a man. Light's hubris may be the reason Ryuk found his jouney amusing.
I think Light has always seemed perfectly fine with the idea of dying. Also, fun fact, Light dying in the middle of the stairs was showing how Death Note users don’t go to the top (heaven) or the bottom (hell)
Ryuk lied when he implied heaven and hell exist, at the end of this very short it shows the death note rule that when someone dies they go to nothingness, which was compared to the same state as being unborn, and similar to the 2 black pages, TLDR: no, he went where everyone else went
Somehow I thought he became a shinigami too. At some point, a shinigami appears wearing an identical tie to Light and I thought it would make sense that those who use the deathnote won't go anywhere and instead be stuck doing the same job for eternity...
The movie has it like this but instead of near, it was L. In the movie, L pre-wrote his name in the deathnote so he would fool Light into thinking he died. L faked his heart attack and Light fell for it confessing he is Kira. It cuts to Light being cornered by everyone and L at the top of the stairs explaining he pre-wrote his name. Then Ryuk wrote Light in the death note
I don't read manga, just the anime. But knowing this, both endings are brilliant. Him having the name Light, and when the light goes off, darkness comes next.
I think the thing which makes the change cool is the fact that it gives two different endings with different meanings allowing whoever views the series can choose which ending they see as fitting basically being the judge for Light Yagami, the same way he had judged others, and neither ending is better than the other both are really great.
Thats actually amazing. They gave Light a more peaceful death in the anime which i like But the manga's ending, just listening the way its described in the video sends chills
I like both endings, but the scene when Light sees HIMSELF when he was just a student it's HEARTBRAKING. And not mention that he sees or alucinante with the silhouette of L. That's pure 🚬🚬🚬
I like both endings, the manga one definitely shows what type of person light is but i prefer the anime cuz it’s just really beautiful with the sunset lighting and seeing light run by his past self and then die on the staircase was just 👌 Also the vision of L he saw at the end was nice
Sorry, but you can't beat the part of the anime ending where light runs by himself as a highschool student. He sees his unsuspecting younger self casually walking back towards the warehouse he fled from, approaching his death without a clue. As the present light is desperately running away from his fate, I can only imagine he sees his younger innocent self and wonders "how did he become this?" Light was a brilliant student with a strong moral compass. If he had conquered his pride, he likely would have had a bright future ahead of him where he could have contributed greatly to the world. Instead, he took the innocence of himself and the world and transformed it into ruin.
The author may pull weird series themes, but he ends it, imo, in a very fitting to the setting way. Like in platina end, the way that everything dies, then potentially resets, seems appropriate cause being introduced to such morbid and dark characters who were chosen to be god candidates right after facing death under different circumstances seems like a literal game of picking poisons not knowing what would happen next under a being with a touch of that dark humanity
I think the anime is better since it shows good symbolism. Light dies in the middle of the stairs, symbolising how he will neither go to heaven nor hell
Ryuk lied when he implied heaven and hell exist, at the end of this very short it shows the death note rule that when someone dies they go to nothingness, which was compared to the same state as being unborn, and similar to the 2 black pages, TLDR: no, he went where everyone else went
The manga ending is just as cold as how Light was as he initially decided to be a death god to his fellow humankind. He ends just how he ended everyone else. The playtime was over.
Its funny because this was probably my second or third anime ever, and when I was very young, I idolized Light and was on Team Kira for "doing what needs to be done to make the world better for good people". I was looking through the lens of a child who had been victimized by evil before. Now that I am an adult, I see how messed up Light was, and I have completely different beliefs about how to handle crime. No real point to my comment here... It's just fascinating to me to observe. I rewatch this anime about once a year; solid storytelling for sure. It's definitely a top favorite of mine. When my GFs kid is a little older, I hope to watch it with her, too.
I LOVE this raw, desperate, human ending. I haven’t really known about it but the fact that Light died with so much dignity always rubbed me the wrong way. It’s kind of beautiful but also why does he get some semblance of peace. I like the idea of him knowing fear before darkness.
Both work. People disagree because of a info card that says there is no heaven or hell there is only nothingness, but that's never stated in the show manag and it contradicts the rule that says the user can neither go to heaven or hell
@@miguelzurita3216 I mean, it doesn't really contradict the rule. It just makes the rule meaningless. If heaven and hell don't exist, then the rule is true: the user of the Note can neither go to heaven nor hell.
It's quite a complex topic, but i'll bring in some quotes... "You see the good in others even when it's not there" -Tighten, Megamind "That (Seeing the world as it is) is a loser's reasoning !" -Sosuke Aizen, Bleach They may be inaccurate, but i hope they bring the points properly Light simply kills criminals that he views to be unpardonable because somehow, they are still out there, boasting (Like how Junko Furuta's torturers are somehow STILL OUT THERE UNPUNISHED (Unless being a severe NEET counts))...the unfortunate agents are simply in the way of a man with severe superiority complex with a strong sense of justice
Perfect ending I loved the anime ending on the stairs letting him get away from near and the rest of the police, dying from ryuks hand alone fulfilling his promise that one day he’ll write his name In the manga it shows that ryuk was aware that this was the last day he would give light watching his end before writing his name
I thought of something the other day. If Mikami was as smart as Light he could have written Light's name in the notebook towards the end of his list and if people started dropping, scratch his name out before the note could kill him. If nobody drops then Light goes on to fight another day
Same with attack on titan People don't wanna see their cool characters having emotios They just want them to die like cool , but they are not signifying the rawness of eren and light last moment , i love those things
Eren is killing 1.8 billion people and instead of crying over them (like he did and no one had a problem over) he started crying over a self inflicted problem of the possibility a girl that he never showed romantic interest in might move on.
@@justaguy7732 I don't know about you It might not even be romantic feelings She is like a family to him who he is with him for majority of his years Don't forget he is just a teenager, so he might misunderstand those feelings for family as romantic interest. And for crying over a girl you said , even if I got caught with a extreme crime and was decided to be executed by the court , I would probably cry thinking about my loved ones , how I am going to leave them alone Can't eren have that right? It's nothing out of character for eren to express his emotions openly, if you have been watching AOT from season 1 you would know that .. he was finally putting down his cold act with his best friend and I don't see any out of character moments in there
@@jyothishlal3128 the thing is that Eren having emotions is fine, chapter 130/131 is loved for that. But didn’t eren show extreme emotion too in 121? When he was full of rage that Karl Fritz dared to take away his and his people’s freedom? Wasn’t Eren showing deep emotion with Ymir, when he freed her? Eren was always very emotional, but his maturity was to stop breaking down and instead handle it better. As for Eren’s breakdown, it makes no sense because Eren is the founder, he has all the power to do something. If he goes “I don’t want to die”, it’s hard to feel bad because he is literally a god and can change his fate.
@@jyothishlal3128 then what is the appeal of a character who is so helpless and unable to make any choice? In the finale Eren flip flops between “I wanted this” and “I had no choicr0
I like the anime ending because i believe in the Death Parade theory. He died in the middle of the staircase, which jeans he didn't go to heaven or hell rather he was trapped in limbo.
This just proves that even if you have a God complex, you shouldn't see everyone else as being below you and there is no escape from death, but one thing I noticed you got wrong, is that you said "everyone elses fate that Light killed," when one of the Death Notes rules is that a USER can't go to neither Heaven nor Hell, which doesn't apply to everyone killed with the Death Note, that rule only applies to a user of the book
This is the perfect time to plug DEATH NOTE THE MUSICAL No, seriously, it's really good. The ending is more similar to the manga. It sounds stupid for death note to be made into a musical, but it's AMAZING.
Uh oh, god complex boy gets to feel what he put other people through! It’s a perfect ending. He needed his comeuppance for thinking he was god when really he was just as vulnerable as any mortal.
So, the difference is essentially the time and the way that Ryuk decides to kill light, which changes the entire behaviour of light which changes the entire mood of the scene... Nice Both endings are very nice. I can't say I prefer one over the other, because I like the speech that Ryuk gives in the anime at the end too, which he would have had no chance to give in the manga version since it all happened so fast. But the manga ending has a better "emotional punch"
Wow. I always hated the ending and I never knew why. It’s exactly what I thought I wanted. Now I get it. The manga is much more what I wanted from the ending. Although the anime ending was very symbolic.
That makes me change my perspective on the ending of the movie, which I thought it didn't make sense because Ryuk kill Light out of nothing. But it seems it's more faithful to the manga. Gotta read the manga!
There's a fanfiction manga where, Light wakes up in the world of shinigami. Ryuk proceeds to tell him, that he promised him he can neither go to heaven nor hell, instead now he has to experience every death of every person he's ever killed which is 124925 people. Every suicide,heart attack, strangulation, hit by a truck, set on fire. Thats a really intresting ending ^^
Don't forget about the reveal that there is NO heaven or hell, just Mu, just nothing. That makes the double black pages even sweeter as it is literally where Light ends up, where everyone he's ever killed or used till they died ended up. Just a black void of nothing. The final two rules of the Death Note: "All humans will, without exception, eventually die. / After they die, the place they go is Mu (nothingness)"

@@Ash_Wen-li Better? Like for him to react a different way or like he deserved better
Bro did not just compare Eren and Light 😂
Would’ve loved if that was adapted in the Anime and the show ends with just a black screen for like 5 minutes as you process what just happened.
I guess you could say there were 2 pages with no light 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tbh both, Manga's and Anime's, edings are gr8. This new info. was also totes top notch, especially that was INDEED BRILLIANT AND ABSOLUTELY GENIUS of showing 2 blank pages. ❤❤❤❤
I prefer the anime personally because it seems more like Light
All throughout the anime and Manga we see Light perfectly fine with The idea of dying he gives rem permission to kill him if misa isn't saved and also in the beginning of the anime, he makes a comment to ryuk Saying it's either I get executed or I deal with a house fire showing that he's aware he will be executed if he's caught the main thing that I like about The anime ending is that his follower kills himself. In order for light to escape and light ends up going into a quiet place, probably knowing that Ryuk is going to kill him and he goes out in silence it just seems more like Light.
But, what about the shinigami eyes deal? He said the wouldn't want to reduce his life span just to make the process of eliminating his foes easier. He also added that he wanted to remain "The god of the world" for a long time.
I mean, you see him with all this composture when he has things under his control. What I saw was a coward who view himself as superior than everyone, and developed/nurtured this superiority/god complex when he accidentaly got access to otherworldly powers. You can see how he value his life over others in the way he uses Misa like a pawn, he didnt struck the eye deal himself and put her life on the line to get L. Despite claiming to be the best on that battle of wits with L, you see how he was actually outmatched and scared when he makes his first mistake, and how much trouble he got while having access to supernatural powers.
And at the end of the day, it was all a facade, that so calm, fearless, godly and self righteous man, was, at the end of it, just a man. Light's hubris may be the reason Ryuk found his jouney amusing.
The quality of your videos (and webtoons you read lol) gets better every time. I'm really excited for the next video!!!
I think Light has always seemed perfectly fine with the idea of dying.
Also, fun fact, Light dying in the middle of the stairs was showing how Death Note users don’t go to the top (heaven) or the bottom (hell)
That kind of adds more to the hypocrisy of the character
Nihilists when you point a gun at them
Ryuk lied when he implied heaven and hell exist, at the end of this very short it shows the death note rule that when someone dies they go to nothingness, which was compared to the same state as being unborn, and similar to the 2 black pages, TLDR: no, he went where everyone else went
@@quora_the_sith7345 Symbolism doesn’t imply truth, I don’t see how this is relevant to the point at all.
Everyone knows this fun fact, stop saying the same thing over and over again because you're stupid.
LITERALLY MY EXACT THOUGHTS THANK YOU FOR SPREADING THE WORD
L 's death was light's plan
Light's death was author's plan😔
I think you'll be surprised to know that L's death was also the author's plan 😔
@@smart-ass8518 light was manipulating the author 😂😂
It's the 2nd best ending for me 1st is code geass that ending bro 😢
US 🤝
Somehow I thought he became a shinigami too. At some point, a shinigami appears wearing an identical tie to Light and I thought it would make sense that those who use the deathnote won't go anywhere and instead be stuck doing the same job for eternity...
That Shinigami is only in the ReLight movies, that were the anime story reanimated and retold.
It's a popular theory, but nothing for certain.
The movie has it like this but instead of near, it was L.
In the movie, L pre-wrote his name in the deathnote so he would fool Light into thinking he died. L faked his heart attack and Light fell for it confessing he is Kira.
It cuts to Light being cornered by everyone and L at the top of the stairs explaining he pre-wrote his name.
Then Ryuk wrote Light in the death note
So L wins?
I don't read manga, just the anime. But knowing this, both endings are brilliant. Him having the name Light, and when the light goes off, darkness comes next.
The manga was wayyyy more unapologetically awesome
Death note will never get old or boring.. not many anime have achieved this position.
Counterpoint, I haven’t read or watched death note
Same
I think the thing which makes the change cool is the fact that it gives two different endings with different meanings allowing whoever views the series can choose which ending they see as fitting basically being the judge for Light Yagami, the same way he had judged others, and neither ending is better than the other both are really great.
Thats actually amazing. They gave Light a more peaceful death in the anime which i like
But the manga's ending, just listening the way its described in the video sends chills
I finished this show and I don't know what to do with my life now
That's poetic
I remember the anime was my first ever anime and man this video just reminded me ive been meaning to read the manga 😅
Death is the only thing equal to everyone -johann
i prefer manga because it gives you satisfaction of seeing him beg😂😂
I like both endings, but the scene when Light sees HIMSELF when he was just a student it's HEARTBRAKING. And not mention that he sees or alucinante with the silhouette of L. That's pure 🚬🚬🚬
I like both endings, the manga one definitely shows what type of person light is but i prefer the anime cuz it’s just really beautiful with the sunset lighting and seeing light run by his past self and then die on the staircase was just 👌
Also the vision of L he saw at the end was nice
Sorry, but you can't beat the part of the anime ending where light runs by himself as a highschool student. He sees his unsuspecting younger self casually walking back towards the warehouse he fled from, approaching his death without a clue. As the present light is desperately running away from his fate, I can only imagine he sees his younger innocent self and wonders "how did he become this?"
Light was a brilliant student with a strong moral compass. If he had conquered his pride, he likely would have had a bright future ahead of him where he could have contributed greatly to the world. Instead, he took the innocence of himself and the world and transformed it into ruin.
The author may pull weird series themes, but he ends it, imo, in a very fitting to the setting way. Like in platina end, the way that everything dies, then potentially resets, seems appropriate cause being introduced to such morbid and dark characters who were chosen to be god candidates right after facing death under different circumstances seems like a literal game of picking poisons not knowing what would happen next under a being with a touch of that dark humanity
It ended? When did this happen?
I was hoping for absolutely nothing in the end.
Finally im happy that im not the only one to think Manga ending was far better and according to the lore of Death Note
I think the anime is better since it shows good symbolism. Light dies in the middle of the stairs, symbolising how he will neither go to heaven nor hell
Ryuk lied when he implied heaven and hell exist, at the end of this very short it shows the death note rule that when someone dies they go to nothingness, which was compared to the same state as being unborn, and similar to the 2 black pages, TLDR: no, he went where everyone else went
Light not wanting to die doesn’t make him a coward, it’s self preservation
Remember the sikigami at end with ryuk,that's our boy light.
That would have been heartbreaking to watch. Glad they changed it in the anime
The manga ending is just as cold as how Light was as he initially decided to be a death god to his fellow humankind. He ends just how he ended everyone else. The playtime was over.
NAH I GOT THE BEST ENDING WITH JOSUKE AND OKAYASU🗿🔥🔥
Its funny because this was probably my second or third anime ever, and when I was very young, I idolized Light and was on Team Kira for "doing what needs to be done to make the world better for good people". I was looking through the lens of a child who had been victimized by evil before. Now that I am an adult, I see how messed up Light was, and I have completely different beliefs about how to handle crime. No real point to my comment here... It's just fascinating to me to observe. I rewatch this anime about once a year; solid storytelling for sure. It's definitely a top favorite of mine. When my GFs kid is a little older, I hope to watch it with her, too.
In the manga, at the end, it also shows someone, presumably Misa (it been a long time since i read it) starting a new religion for Kira
I LOVE this raw, desperate, human ending. I haven’t really known about it but the fact that Light died with so much dignity always rubbed me the wrong way. It’s kind of beautiful but also why does he get some semblance of peace. I like the idea of him knowing fear before darkness.
but him dying on the stairs was a little bit better from a written stand point
Both work.
People disagree because of a info card that says there is no heaven or hell there is only nothingness, but that's never stated in the show manag and it contradicts the rule that says the user can neither go to heaven or hell
@@miguelzurita3216 I mean, it doesn't really contradict the rule. It just makes the rule meaningless.
If heaven and hell don't exist, then the rule is true: the user of the Note can neither go to heaven nor hell.
It's quite a complex topic, but i'll bring in some quotes...
"You see the good in others even when it's not there"
-Tighten, Megamind
"That (Seeing the world as it is) is a loser's reasoning !"
-Sosuke Aizen, Bleach
They may be inaccurate, but i hope they bring the points properly
Light simply kills criminals that he views to be unpardonable because somehow, they are still out there, boasting (Like how Junko Furuta's torturers are somehow STILL OUT THERE UNPUNISHED (Unless being a severe NEET counts))...the unfortunate agents are simply in the way of a man with severe superiority complex with a strong sense of justice
Perfect ending I loved the anime ending on the stairs letting him get away from near and the rest of the police, dying from ryuks hand alone fulfilling his promise that one day he’ll write his name
In the manga it shows that ryuk was aware that this was the last day he would give light watching his end before writing his name
Personally I prefer the anime's ending. I like the poetic aspects of him passing away alone and with Ryuk acknowledging the time they spent together.
I thought of something the other day. If Mikami was as smart as Light he could have written Light's name in the notebook towards the end of his list and if people started dropping, scratch his name out before the note could kill him. If nobody drops then Light goes on to fight another day
I don't know if you even can just cancel the person's death by scratching their name
The live-action version had this
Same with attack on titan
People don't wanna see their cool characters having emotios
They just want them to die like cool , but they are not signifying the rawness of eren and light last moment , i love those things
Eren is killing 1.8 billion people and instead of crying over them (like he did and no one had a problem over) he started crying over a self inflicted problem of the possibility a girl that he never showed romantic interest in might move on.
@@justaguy7732 I don't know about you
It might not even be romantic feelings
She is like a family to him who he is with him for majority of his years
Don't forget he is just a teenager, so he might misunderstand those feelings for family as romantic interest.
And for crying over a girl you said , even if I got caught with a extreme crime and was decided to be executed by the court , I would probably cry thinking about my loved ones , how I am going to leave them alone
Can't eren have that right?
It's nothing out of character for eren to express his emotions openly, if you have been watching AOT from season 1 you would know that .. he was finally putting down his cold act with his best friend and I don't see any out of character moments in there
@@jyothishlal3128 the thing is that Eren having emotions is fine, chapter 130/131 is loved for that. But didn’t eren show extreme emotion too in 121? When he was full of rage that Karl Fritz dared to take away his and his people’s freedom? Wasn’t Eren showing deep emotion with Ymir, when he freed her? Eren was always very emotional, but his maturity was to stop breaking down and instead handle it better. As for Eren’s breakdown, it makes no sense because Eren is the founder, he has all the power to do something. If he goes “I don’t want to die”, it’s hard to feel bad because he is literally a god and can change his fate.
@@justaguy7732 if you think he can change his fate
You didn't watch the show main theme
@@jyothishlal3128 then what is the appeal of a character who is so helpless and unable to make any choice? In the finale Eren flip flops between “I wanted this” and “I had no choicr0
"Alright, next we're gonna have two completely black pages"
Printer: ....bro what the fuck?
I like the anime ending because i believe in the Death Parade theory. He died in the middle of the staircase, which jeans he didn't go to heaven or hell rather he was trapped in limbo.
LIMBO?!?!!?!?!?!??!!?!? IS THAT A MFING GD REFERENCE?!?!?!??!!?!?!?!!?!??!?!>!?
I remember seeing him on Death Parade, the crossover is pretty cool. 😆
This just proves that even if you have a God complex, you shouldn't see everyone else as being below you and there is no escape from death, but one thing I noticed you got wrong, is that you said "everyone elses fate that Light killed," when one of the Death Notes rules is that a USER can't go to neither Heaven nor Hell, which doesn't apply to everyone killed with the Death Note, that rule only applies to a user of the book
celebrating with Light.
This is the perfect time to plug DEATH NOTE THE MUSICAL
No, seriously, it's really good. The ending is more similar to the manga. It sounds stupid for death note to be made into a musical, but it's AMAZING.
He's in purgatory 😂
i like the subtlety more though
So the two movie japanese live action follows the same ending as the manga. Thats good to know
Uh oh, god complex boy gets to feel what he put other people through! It’s a perfect ending. He needed his comeuppance for thinking he was god when really he was just as vulnerable as any mortal.
So, the difference is essentially the time and the way that Ryuk decides to kill light, which changes the entire behaviour of light which changes the entire mood of the scene... Nice
Both endings are very nice. I can't say I prefer one over the other, because I like the speech that Ryuk gives in the anime at the end too, which he would have had no chance to give in the manga version since it all happened so fast. But the manga ending has a better "emotional punch"
The Manga show L as Human
Those heavy panels was a chefs kiss
I wouldn't ask for any ending it was portrayed perfectly
The director 🗿🙌🏻😮💨
That 2 Black pages means 2 minutes silence maybe ☠️
Wow. I always hated the ending and I never knew why. It’s exactly what I thought I wanted. Now I get it. The manga is much more what I wanted from the ending. Although the anime ending was very symbolic.
Ngl it hits harder when u realize why he was tweakin so much... bros going to the void for using the death note💀😭
I think both ending are good for different reasons!
In short: anime ending is for the Light fans and the manga ending is for the L fans
That makes me change my perspective on the ending of the movie, which I thought it didn't make sense because Ryuk kill Light out of nothing. But it seems it's more faithful to the manga. Gotta read the manga!
Nah FMA's ending was better. Though, Death Note's manga ending was goated.
“one of”
@@What-eo1jm ?
@@emiliotrees2933 one of the best not the best
There's a fanfiction manga where, Light wakes up in the world of shinigami. Ryuk proceeds to tell him, that he promised him he can neither go to heaven nor hell, instead now he has to experience every death of every person he's ever killed which is 124925 people. Every suicide,heart attack, strangulation, hit by a truck, set on fire. Thats a really intresting ending ^^
😳😬
I hoped he would survive but i knew it would never happen.
I paused the vid so you wont spoil it for me ama read it rn
Gosebumps🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
I was reading Death Note as it dropped, and i celebrated so fucking much when he died. Zero dignity, zero recognition. I was so happy
Don't forget about the reveal that there is NO heaven or hell, just Mu, just nothing. That makes the double black pages even sweeter as it is literally where Light ends up, where everyone he's ever killed or used till they died ended up. Just a black void of nothing. The final two rules of the Death Note: "All humans will, without exception, eventually die. / After they die, the place they go is Mu (nothingness)"
