I did. It was very realistic, though I wished Light would've lived.

Yeah I love it. Some of Yagami's mistakes revenged in the end and ending was indeed realistic. Also generally my point of view is: sad ending/death protagonist = + for the show

It was a great ending, very realistic. Light is not a badass. Don't expect him to give up without overreacting. Probably the saddest ending I've ever seen but appropriate. If only Mikami wouldn't have acted on his own accord..

I disagree. It was very unrealistic and extremely stupid. I know that they had to make Light lose but they could have done it some other way. I'm talking about anime. I couldn't read the manga.

The manga ending was better, this could have been animated:
it would be a way better ending to the Anime:

I didn't like it. Near was a smudge in a great series, and the way he "won" at the end was a bit dumb, something Light would have normally overseen. I hated to see light lose, but if it had to happen, Near should have died as well.

I was freaked out by how Light utterly broke down in the end. It's realisitc that he would go a little insane. And I think it's good that he died even though I didn't want him to. But I wish they would have ended the series like they ended the live action movies. It was always about L vs Light. Near and Mello shouldn't have been involved.

Sorry, that image from the manga is confusing. What happened to Light in the manga? I haven't read it.

If you're not really satisfied with the anime ending, you should watch the first Death Note 'special': Death Note Rewrite: Genshi Suru Kami, it has a few new scenes. If you're on Light's side, you will really enjoy it, since this special has a good ending for him. (One of the new scenes is WICKED XD )

In the manga, Light dies the same way, there is no differece (except that Ryukuu kills Raito in the "warehouse", close to him), the difference is that the manga has stuff that happens AFTER Raito's death, and should have been animated, it would be much better to the Anime ending:

One of the best endings I could have imagined, despite my undying support/admiration/love/obsession for Raito. It was inevitable that he lost at some point, and it was done in a beautiful way.

Plus, I don't think I've ever cried that much in response to anything I watch/read, etc. I could barely see the screen.

I didn't really see it as a fitting ending to such a wonderful anime. In all honesty, I truly believed that in the 2nd last/last episode, that Light would win and continue to live!...
...
Which would mean another season of DN...yay!

That unfortunately wasn't to be :(
But, if Light had to die, I guess it was a great way to end it.
Def, my favourite anime :D

I thoroughly hated the ending. Yea it woulda been perfect if Light lived & Near died but they didn't do it that way. However if Light had seen the DN before hand he would have noticed that it wasn't the real one.

I <33 Light ^.^

Mikami would have never wrote that Kira spokeswoman (sorry bad with names) because Kira told him not to worry & not to act on his own. Mikami respected & feared Kira so it makes no sense that he would betray an order. I liked Mikami in the beginning of his character but grew to dislike him some before the ending even occurred.

I like Misa ^.^ However I felt that allowing her to regain her memory was such a turning point to Light's demise. A part of me wonders if she had a hand in stopping Light. The ending leaves it open for speculation.

As for Light losing it, its believable. But thats because Light was use to having everything go the way he wanted & in the end he no longer had any control of the situation. Light clung on to whatever he could use no matter how small & insignificant it was.

The whole Near & Mello deal was just screwbally. I mean some of the stuff they did L did too. There were differences between them but not enough to have Near catch Light so quickly. I agree that Light began to read L kinda like a book & took advantage of a great situation in order to kill L. However I can't phantom how in the hell with so much little actual proof that Near was so quick to figure everything out not including what Mello helped unearth.

Hmm quoting myself .. I just had a Death Note marathon with my friend .. (http://myanimelist.net/history/Marco-Kun) I'm tired ^__^ lol ..

But I have to adjust my opinion after seeing it again ..
--
Of course, I still love the idea of having Light being victorious in the end ..

But now I like the ending .. It's pretty sad and the song at the end pretty much sets the mood.. From approxiametly the first shot from Matsuda till the end it was just dead silence in my room .. And that says a lot if I am quiet lol

It was tend to happen that Near or any other force hunting Kira would win .. The ending was just sad, with Ryuuk finishing it .. I am satisfied ..

No -.- I think that L should win... Heh, well, ok - he died, but after this, Raito should win! I am not satisfied... ;< It was their fight from the very beggining, not Near's, in my opinion.

I love the ending. It's quite hard to guess and i think, it thrilled my heart to see the way Light die. It's also interesting to see how Ryuuk commenting the situation and his 'sympathy' to Light. Also the way it ended Misa.

I love tragic ending. It's more realistic.

yea, i guess it was realistic, but i just dont like he's reaction at the end, through the show he was so confident and genius but when he got caught he acted like a huge pussy and completely killed he's image.



Are we talking about the manga? Cuz in the end of the manga he is begging for his life and yes it does destroy the image of a God he created for himself. However, I found it fitting cuz it shows him desperately holding on to his life like a HUMAN, and not like an immortal God. Don't get me wrong I admire how he, a mere student who only had a notebook to kill people and his brains to rely on, was able to reach so close into creating his vision of a perfect world complete with Kira as the ruler. But his downfall was perfect because he was put through the same fear that those criminals and policemen experienced when he carelessly ended their existance and by this his apathy was eliminated replaced by the human feelings he had abandon.

It was a fight between L & Light so Near should not be involved - btw I hate that kid! It's a shame that there is no ep which ends different - I mean, when Light wins or at least continue to live. Generally, ending was very sad imo, the picture of Light with sadness in his eyes... Geez, I cried, srsly :@

I don't know how I felt about the ending really...I mean, some parts I thought were wicked awesome, while others I felt were over the top and weird. I think I'm indifferent about it because L was my favorite character and I loved watching him, so after he died I was kind of reluctant to watch the rest.
