Note:This is not a comparison between looks

Title explains everything.


I like Light Yagami because he is smart and is the saviour of the world. He protects the innocent people from kidnappers,murder,rapists and all other types of criminals. He is a justice hero but most confuse him as a villain.He even sacrifices his soul for doing good for the world and was even ready to sacrifice his family.


While I hate L because he is annoying. He is a pervert and has ugly eating habits.


Well,try listening this amazing soundtrack

Light 100%. He's cool, intelligent and the way he can manipulate and perceive others is remarkable. I like that he doesn't let any feelings get in the way of his motives.

if you love death penalty then obviously you will love Light more

but im not totally onboard with death penalty because of false confessions and wrong accusations

so the lesser evil is L so he is my pick

world peace through fear is not nice

yeah I definitely prefer sociopathic Light to autistic L

Light wants to do good for the world even though he's a heartless tyrant whereas L doesn't give a shit about anything except feeling gratification.

L because he seems to be somewhat optimistic about the world. I'm more of a Light in terms of assuming the worst of people and I don't think it's a good outlook to have at all, hence why I think L is the stronger person emotionally speaking.

Definitely L, because Light is such a bland, boring and bad character imo. No interesting emotions, no interesting internal struggle and ends up dead in the end for becoming so arrogant that he literally turns into a dumbass. He doesn't even believe in his own ideology as even his ego is more important to him which becomes his downfall. Just a disappointing character.

L isn't a great character or anything (but I don't think he's bad) and we get less of an insight into his mind than in Light's but that's honestly for the better for me, because what I've seen in Light's mind is just disappointing.

L tho I think Light is far better as a character. I just found L to be very entertaining and I don't like Light's god complex.

Also Light's way of just killing off people just by seeing on the TV or reading the list of suspects from the police records is pretty dumb. Cases can be more complex than just person a killed person b so he bad. If he really is a savior he should come up with a system where he can evaluate each and every case and deliver true justice.

In general tho both of them are unlikeable, the only good likeable character in death note is Soichiro Yagami.

I hate both L is the lesser evil so I choose him. Only character from death note I found very likable in death note was Touta Matsuda.

Light and L are basically front and backbenchers of a class and their chunibyo dream coming true. Matsuda is more of the real representation of inbetween general population, so i can relate to him more

Light, since he makes for an interesting character study.

Death Note is pretty much the story of how a pyschopath gains the power to entertain his fantasy of his god complex.

Light is a much more interesting character. L is a well pretty written intelligent character but that's about it.

Light's view of humans is IMO wrong but he acts logically if you would assume his views as truth. His ego feels more human in terms of giving him problems and his development and actions are pretty consistent (at lest before the time skip).

- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers

(SPOILER WARNING FOR DEATH NOTE)

Light because his goal was more understandable then L's . It was well executed even though it failed at the end. L was a great character, but he had less personality. L's goal of finding out who Kira is doesn't feel like he ever wanted to do it until he was kind of made to do it.

When I was a young child I preferred L for his quirkiness. Then as time went on and my memory and love for death note aged like fine wine, I finally allowed myself to re-watch it again and came to the conclusion that I prefer Light much more because he is a wonderfully written, fleshed-out character, and not only that, but an actual villain with every intention of remaining a villain until the very end.
