| You might be a psychopath or something if you root for Kira because of his actions. What are your views about it? |
 |
| I've personally always root for L ever since Kira killed Misora Naomi. |
 |
| Because this world is rotten, and those who are making it rot deserve to die lmfao. |
 |
| I assume it's because he kills rapists and shit. |

RebelPandaSFan said: I root for him because he is handsome I'm not talking about liking the character. but actually, people who think that his actions were morally justified. |
|
| authoritarians and extremists like death penalty fans love him |
| You dont have to be a Psychopath for this. What he did wasn't wrong, his goals and action are actually good for the World and no one can deny it. Its of course not right what he did in the view of Justice, but if a person has to make his hands dirty for a bigger Good, then its worth it. BUT light lost his goals after half of the show and got corrupted, he wasn't someone who wanted to bring balance. He became what he wanted to destroy in the first place. Or.. did he became something what he actually was all the time and stopped finding excuses for his acting? Who knows? |
| I don't root for him because he killed people other than murderers and rapists. |
DrPirahna said: I root for Kira.Light said in first episode that he is willing to throw his humanity in order to make his plan work.What we saw in this show is him throwing his humanity and using his brain to become a “God of a new world”.Crime dropped drastically and people were afraid of him.World is a better place and only thing he did was throwing his morals.Heroic in wierd and generic way if you ask me.Innocent people died but that is more real then classical shounen where character turns villains good and makes everybody in his friend... You clearly weren't paying attention in the second half. |

Light only killed Criminals who were broadcasted on TV, what about the criminals who never got caught? and there are millions of other crimes like corruption, race, and gender problems, what about those? The world never became a good place. In the end ignorant mass win. |

| I honestly don’t know. I personally despise him. However, most of my friends like him either because they believe he is attractive, or because they admire his intelligence. |
 |
| I rooted for L Reason in episode 2 when Kira decided kill L who was just taunting him and thus breaking is own rule of killing only criminals (the TV scene where L provokes Kira with linde l tailor?) |

| because if villain bad why hot |
| I'll honestly take light instead of L, Yeah you know,i'm childish,but he's the most well-written anti-hero or villain with childish ideology ever made,he's relate to teenage at age 14-17 do that's why teenagers love death note and kira, especially it's tagged shounen,His ideology and character is excuted perfectly Now i ask. Why Kira Yoshikage Loved so much and said he's the best villain even better than hisoka or on par with johan liebert? Why DIO have 12.000 favs higher than yoshikage while he's a generic villain? |

| He is a great character, but his thought process is too convoluted, too much inconsistency and delusions, in my opinion. I never found any justification to support him, even without ethics taken into an account. So, I was always on L's side + I liked L more, from every perspective. |
| Not saying his morality is justified but he actually gets the job done vs most of society's slow-running, biased and overall flawed justice system. |
 |
| I don't support his ideologies but i like him as a charecter. |
| Kira views the world without nuance. He believes he alone can fix all the problems. I think it's easy to trick yourself into going "hey that's not bad" but there's a ton of nuance. The whole point of the Kids character is that because he believes he should be god that he needs to stop everything and everyone that may stop him from making the world his ideal world. I think if you like at Death Note very superficially it may be easy to trick yourself into rooting for Kira. But at any level beyond that (i.e. giving the show's themes some level of thought) he comes to be very apparent as a despicable human being who is worse than the rapists and murderers he is seeking to eliminate. That said he is a fantastic character and truly part of the anime & manga canon. |
| Because he has some prime edge. Also Death Note isn't nearly as smart as it thinks it is. Jokes aside, plenty of people think capital punishment is a good idea and they often tend to overlap with people who think the justice system is too slow or too lenient and you need someone to "get the job done". There's a reason why cops idolise Dirty Harry or The Punisher. Charisma is another factor. |
| Because he is the ideal of edgy children's dreams. They don't realize that the character was actually meant to be a critique of the Nietzschean ideal. |
 |
| Because most people like things that society considers Evil also He is damn cool |
