| NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I totally cried. And the whole L friendship thing with Light got to me and L's sorta acceptance about what was to come. THERE IS NO DEATH NOTE WITHOUT L!! |
 ~ A woman's determination can move the mightiest of stones~ |
| I legitimately hate Light. I know of so many people who adore the guy, but I can't stand him. Ever since he killed Ray Penbar (and how he got him to kill his coworkers) I thought he was a douche. And then when he killed Penbar's wife I wanted to bitch slap him. He's such a heartless little dick, for lack of a better word. Who said he should be the one to pass judgement on people? Get off your high horse and just die. Stop using everyone around you to your personal gain. And balls, the 'new world' that you're trying to create with only kind hearted people is so flawed. You can't even make it into your perfect world because you are the worst of the worst. c: anyway, L - ya shall be missed. and LOL @ the foot scene ;) did look incredibly gay even if it was a ref. to the bible. |
 "It's just...a bad dream! Wake up, wake up...!" |
| So L submitted to Light being the so called 'God'. He knew he had Kira by his side but found it hard to stay one or two step ahead of him towards the end of his short lifespan. Could watari be his grandfather or something?? From the start of the episode we see L in front of a house, which could have been his. Light really pisses me off to no end. Half the time i feel like dropping this series but end up watching anyways because of Light. |
| L was raised in an orphanage, that 'house' was called Wammy's House and was where L was raised as a child. L knew he was going to die and there was nothing he could do about it which is why he did something so pathetic as washing Light's feet. It was his was of paying homage to Kira. Bravo, Kira, you win, you're going to kill me and there is nothing I can do about it. |
 |
| I think L for sure saw what was going to happen though. Remember when he said "We'll be parting ways soon." My theory is that he knew exactly how light was going to kill him, but he couldn't find a way to stop him. |
| The whole bit about L referencing the ringing bells was pretty creepy, that he could sense his death. |
 |
| This was one of the saddest moments I've seen in an anime before, L is the best ;___; |

| I really cried. |
| L knew that he was going to die. There is a lot of symbolism in Death Note. |
|
| How sad, L was the best of them all. This episode almost makes me cry everytime I watch it. |

| This is the episode the anime should ended with.. It could have different ending with Kira's death instead of L's, but it's not an option... The main thing is that it is definitely final episode on the story.. The rest 12 are artificial bullshit :| How sad... I was about to give Death Note 10 point, but with such a dumb "second part" all I can give is 7 :( |

| anyone knows what the insert song was? the one sung by misa? |
| Even before, L knew that somehow he was going to die one way or the other since pursuing Kira brings only danger and death... but this time he's certain that the end of him is very near and is inevitable and he has accepted that fact (hence the reminiscing bit of the past and blah blah).. but it still proves that in the end he knew all along that Light was indeed Kira but was only powerless to convict him because of the lack of evidence and he can no longer pursue the case further since he knows he doesn't have much time left and whatnot still L is hardcore, for me he's the only one that makes this whole series interesting! looking forward to the awaited appearances of both his successors though even if they're not as good as him.. heh |

Roketsu said: I'm thinking it relates to the whole 'god' complex Light has. Think of the story of Jesus washing the disciples feet for them. I knew it was like this from the start(unlike these pro-yaoi comments here). I really felt that L will die - he knew it at this point too, but it really was heartbreaking when it happened. And not just L - Watari died too. I hoped that Watari will be in great help for L's successor, but I guess that nothing goes like I'm expecting at this point... L revealed parts of himself just before his very end. Really sad episode. Anyway, the singing Misa was... yeah, she was creepy. |

theberserker said: I don't get it why she dressed up all in black and started singing all of sudden, but other than that this episode was excpetional. Now i wonder where the story is headed now since L, the guy who made the past episodes so great, is now dead. Lemme guess, relating it to Roketsu's post about Jesus washing feet, and relating this episode to religion, maybe her wearing black has to do with black friday (was it black friday? i can't remember the name, but i'm referring to the part where theists do stuff when Jesus supposedly died), but then it could have been just random stuff to add to the weirdness of this episode and the impact of L's Death |
Shadowfox48 said: ok, so everyone, there is alot of symbolism in the Death Note episode 25"silence". The first one i will talk about is L's saying, "the bells are ringing." this refers to when L was a little kid. he was in a church by himself and was crying, (i personally think that his parents died, which makes him drawn to murder cases) so with that him saying that means that he knows that he's going to die. the second one im going to talk about is L washing Lights feet. many people are repealed and even disgusted at this scene. But the scene isn't that weird when u get it. Basically it revers to the bible, when Jesus washes the feet of his guests, showing humility. that is what L did, showed humility, and integrity. The third one has to do with what L said while he was washing Lights feet," Its sad, we'll be parting soon" this says that he knew that he was going to die and accepted it. But again he showed that he cared about his first and best friend. there are many other "symbols" throughout the death note series. i think these are the most important. L died confirming that Light was Kira and he was killed by his best friend :( He died at the age of 25, on November 5th, 2007. just 5 days after his birthday on October 31. Honestly im sad that he died and i know that he didnt die in vein. This is L, signing off... are you saying that the boy who was crying was actually L?, that's interesting |
| this episode was so great!!! but why did people keep commenting on the foot massage while the most important thing is, L died!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cant believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????????????????????? why does people doesn't seem to shocked about the fact that L died??? ps : i didn't read the manga |
 |
| PS: the foot massage thing was so cute! ;) |
|
| R.I.P L AND WATARI I LOVE YALL TO DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Now that L dies.....downhill time |
| Rem :( |
 |
| When Watari's heart attack set in, I gripped my pillow, knowing that Rem had done it and that he was going to die. It took Rem fading into the darkness and everyone frantically wondering where the flying expletive she'd gone. I figured it out and when L fell out of his chair... I screamed, almost swore, and threw my empty styrofoam cup across the living room. Oh, and I almost cried. D*MN YOU, YAGAMI LIGHT!!! |
| It is such a shame that Rem did not write the name of all the other policemen characters in that book. The death scene was handled beautifully. Instead of the following the manga where L just said his last words, the anime's portrayal of the two of them just looking each other in the eye, silently, while Light's look of concern slowly transforms to an evil grin was far more powerful. Brilliant. |

| PURE EVIL! Effing epic episode! Was epic when All the data was removed and than that L died! Sad though, he was a great character in this Anime! I do wonder what's next! |
 |
| Killing rem was cruel. she could have been a good ally. But wow, i didn't think l would actually die. He kept on escaping using a stupid excuse so i figured it would continue until he discovered light |
 |
| Did L really die? I kind of have my doubts. In any case, gripping chapter. L and Light kind of deserved each other as intellectual equals. |

| indeed,it was sad,im kind of speechless from this episode. overall i suppose it was good. |
| RIP Rem and L, you both were amazing. |
 |
| Nope nope nope that didn't just happen nope nope nope this episode took way too much of a toll on me even though I'm rewatching the series why did I have to get so emotionally attached to L ;A; |
| Watch that not actually be L and L is actually someone who was watching from a distance the whole time! But Rem and L dead, man, I can't believe it! How does this anime have 12 more episodes? |

| As far as I am concerned, I just finished my 5th run of Death Note. The series completely dies from this part on. I would suggest watching the next episode, then skip to the end. Here is what you will miss: I'll see you at the finale. |
| Time to lie down and cry. |
 |
| that's some serious shit o.o poor L D: |

| That foot massage scene was mad gay. Great episode though, cant wait to see where it goes from here. |
 |
| I already knew about L's death even before I started to watch death note that's why every episode I was sad for him but this episode was just wow it killed something inside me when they make L so nice and then he dies. Death note is not going to be the same I know it. |
| Oh man, really sad the L died without saying anything really special. Since I was spoilered to when L dies, all I had to do was imagining the way he dies. When a shinigami dies, the remaining life time goes back to the person he saved, right? Well, then Misa has more life time once again. Since I don't dislike her, it's good to see that. And well, Kira is back. |
| I can't believe that L is dead ;_; |
| And now Detective Jesus joins the halls of the dead. |
