Great episode and it confirms Light is nothing but a cold blooded murderer, no better than the scum he was originally after.

I love this show, peak peak peak. When Light takes her card and writes down her name and the officer passes by at the same time was cool and especially when she asked her why does he keep checking his watch, and Light tells her that he is Kira, her facial expression i loved it

Most of the focus of this episode was just a conversation between Light and the FBI Agent as he tries to get her name, but there are so many moving pieces and smart dialogue that leads to it being very interesting the whole way through, with great tension and an amazing finish to the episode. Of all the episodes up to now, this one was exceptional.

Naomi was so careful and clever, and all of a sudden she's not suspicious anymore ! Even though Kira was acting weird this whole time ! It feels like she's a cold blooded, level headed former FBI agent that turns into a naive high school girl... the death note is stupid

What saved this episode however is when Ryuk starts laughing as she gives an alias. Of course he can see through her lie thanks to his shinigami eyes hehe

Damn, that's sad, i was really hoping she'd make it. 

Very well written! They really did everything they could to make it seem like she'd be able to avoid giving out her name.

Ryuk's laugh is so goated

This is still one of my favorite episodes! Incredible! The entire episode is just them walking down the street and the entire thing is engrossing from start to finish. This episode is representative of what makes this anime so great: Light is in an impossible situation and somehow talks himself out of it. There's so much tension and angst the entire time, all the way until that clock strikes at the end. And then there's the providence and luck behind his success...it's all so entertaining to watch.

great, Light refused the Eye Deal and at the end it wasn't needed. He gave up and began acting desperate to a dangerous level, but succeeded. And damn, Aizawa almost got into everything at the worst possible moment.

Been eons since i last watched it.

Light was so excellent with manipulating naomi so much he pushed her in reverse psychology manner.

when she was hesitant to join his "task force"
"u are so young and cute, maybe this aint for u"
"no, I will do it."

fell into his trap hook line and sinker when earlier she was apprehensive and wanted to only speak to L

Damn he changed immediately from cute boi to psychopath


CHECKMATE BITCH



Even the universe started snowing when she gave her drivers license to stop another policeman from witnessing ahead of time when light wrote into his desu note.

REALITY WARPER

light demonstrated how he used a lie of knowing task force wasnt there to present doubt and then convince her that "whoops u got me, i am a member of it".

He first knew she was apprehensive and untrusting. He posed a excuse to make her trust him more while ensuring she doesnt go back to head quarters.

First condition cleared.

Then he got her intentions to be with L and how she was a FBI agent, in order to use it against her by emphasising that they need people like her, driving her to action with him.

Second condition cleared.

And finally he reverse psyched her into making her join task force by making a process up about how she will need to join it, by identity proof, detective recommendation(via light himself) and finally L's recommendation. By making her focus more on detective recommendation she failed to notice the real reason, that is the identity proof by which she would die.

All conditions were cleared, and all Light had to do was bide and wait.


L lost huge advantage, just like that.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

And yeah Light was so prideful that he told to naomi, "yeah i am kira"

while it worked sooo well here, if naomi gave a fake identity card(not very difficult to make), honestly,
Light would have been screwed, but he had awesome coincidence working with him (or another kami with shinikami).

And he turned the tides of battle in an instant with a lot of quick thinking.

BOOM.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.

The best episode so far. I was hoping she would suspect him and call a double bluff with her name. She did look at him looking at the time the first time she told him her alias. I hope she survives and creates more of a thriller.

Whelp, I kinda hate Light now lol. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I can blame him for trying to cover his tracks but that doesn't make Sh- I mean Naomi's death any easier to swallow. And why the fuck did he have to make that "I can call my father now" joke. What the fuck, Light?

Did not have a favorite scene in this episode as I'm too saddened by Naomi's death.

R.I.P, Naomi Misora. I really wished we could have seen your glory days in the FBI

Just as I was thankful that she gave Light a fake name, she actually gave him her real identity at the end. How could someone who should've had high trust issues at that time accept the idea of ​​a stranger she had just met at that time to work together, just like that? Maybe she's very desperate and Light looks very convincing, but if her status is just an ordinary citizen, then I'll accept it. However, she is a former FBI agent who is said to have even worked directly for L. Shouldn't a high level of suspicion be at the top for her if she is investigating a case? She could tell Light to give her time to think about it first and ask him to meet again at the police station in a few days. She doesn't need to give her real identity, she doesn't need to give a number either, and she can still confirm it with the police first.

Well I'm just very grateful that there is L here who is able to match Light's brain level by providing fake identities for the police, and the belt idea is also very clever.

But on the other hand it seems that Light is under suspicion in the next episode... hmm but Light is very smart so he will definitely get around that. I want to see L trick Light again :( because even though I'm annoyed with the two agents who were killed by Light, these two were innocent people who shouldn't have been killed. Light has gone away from the initial idea of ​​wanting to "enforce" justice. Right now I think most of the people Light will kill in the future will be the people who tried to capture him...

But okay, seriously, Light is really, really smart.

This episode was so good! He was in hot water but he found a way to get her name. Aizawa saw him though, I wonder if that'll ever come back to bite him. I mean I guess maybe he didn't realize he passed by Light (he didn't really get a good look), but still the fact that they were right next to each other is crazy

Oh yeah and I guess there is also the fact that they may never find Naomi's body, so it doesn't matter anyways. Problem solved, and loose end tied

This is messed up tbh, your fiance gets murdered doing his job and you set out to get justice for him only to get killed yourself. The scene where Light reveals himself as kira reminds me of the ending of Alien Covenant.
Not the exact same situation but similar enough imo. Either way this is just a horrible thing to do to a person but it makes it entertaining to watch.

tension at its peak as Light tries to find out the name of Ray's fiancee who goes to the police to give information that nne's fiance talked to someone on the bus. Light cannot allow that, so he tries to find out her name by all means. Top episodes!
