| if you so wish, than you could certainly read some undertone into the series. I mean they were 'rivals' (which always invites a rivalry in bed according to yaoi fans), and they were chained together for god knows how long. |
     My pokemon bring all the boys to the yard... |
| LOL, they so are. XD |
  |
| WTF are they gay? |
 |
| No, just... No. I don't think either of them really had any kind of sexual thought in their heads. The drying scene was more of a symbolic thing then a fanservice scene. |
| o.O..... W-well...even though it was like OBVIOUS with all those chains and smirks and lovey dovey stuff but... I DECLINE TO ACCEPT THAT! NO WAY!!! NOOOOOOOOOUUUUU WAAAAYYYY~!! WELL... unless light is a SM. |
| No I never saw them that way. If anything, it seemed that L was a bit attracted to Misa? |
| I would have to say no. Although I believe they really enjoy each others company because they haven't found anyone else that is as intelligent as they are. |
| They are not gay, but there are some weird scenes, like cleaning each others feet. Which is weird.. and I think this is fanservice for girls. |
| Seriously this thread made me laughing XD Afshan15 said: i think so..... i mean wats yagami wen u read it frm bckwards.... Im A Gay....... *That grammar XD Then all of his family??? |

| As much as the idea turns me on, it kind of puts a damper on your relationship when your potential love interest is working day and night to find a way to send you six feet under. Having said that, Ohba-sensei has said in "Death Note: How To Read" that if Light had never come across the Death Note, he would likely have spent his life fighting crime side by side with L. So there you have it, yaoi fans. If not for Ryuk, Death Note could have been on its way to becoming the greatest shounen-ai series ever. |

| Of course! |
I luv u |
| no ther gay i saw them once um kissing n stuff >< |
| Obviously. |
| Why else would L handcuff him? Why else would Light be obsessing over L even after |

Red_Keys said: Does it matter? Apparently for the curious minds of youngsters it does. But no probably not. It's impossible to really know what L's feelings towards light, or anyone for that matter are. Light is a little too hellbent on becoming god and getting rid of obstacles to even think of emotional matters. Though Light does hold obvious heavy respect for him, and L's probably the only person who made any sort of effect on Light. They could have been best friends if Light didn't get the death note to say the least. |
gr33nhippo said: No they're not gay. The whole foot drying thing was a scene taken out of the bible I believe (I'm not Christian, so don't quote me on this) It was a story about Guy A that rubbed Guy B's feet (knowing that guy B is deceiving him), and then Guy B stabs him in the back. Look it up, not sure if I'm recalling correctly. How in the hell do people not pick up on this? I was 13 when I first watched Death Note, hadn't even read the Bible, and I was still like, "that's definitely some sort of biblical reference." If the bible advocates anything it's pedal hygeine; In fact, I'm pretty sure that Footbaths was the last name of one of the apostles or something. |

I just saw it as L being his usual tricky self into seeing how Light reacts to being treated as a superior I mean, after rewatching the series I have confirmed Light has more attatchment both physically&mentally to L than Misa, in a matter of a fact, he doesnt have any attraction to misa what so ever I suspect L is bisexual since he had an attraction to both light and misa |

| It was most definitely a Biblical reference. Like. There's no question. http://garyware.me/2010/10/21/jesus-washes-judas-feet-a-lesson-in-humility-via-ligonier-blog/ Jesus knew Judas’ heart, but washed his feet anyway. Why did He do it? Well Jesus models for us here how we are not to practice presumptive excommunication. Jesus treated Judas as his own, in order to show the need to leave time and opportunity for repentance and turning. The wheat and tares will grow up together, and we are not to be presumptuous about who the tares might be, but to be longsuffering with one another. L knew Light was Kira. But he still saw him as a friend and with humility. I didn't even read the Bible, and this was obvious. |

| This reminds me of a final essay I wrote in my Senior English class where I claimed that Batman and the Joker were soul mates. I think that a valid argument can be made, even if it is little more than fan speculation in an effort to kill time. |

| Yeah probably,but matsuda is the sexiest |

| To answer your question: Yes, as gay as Mello is for Near. To answer your question seriously: We'd all like to think that. But most likely..no. Imanza said: Having said that, Ohba-sensei has said in "Death Note: How To Read" that if Light had never come across the Death Note, he would likely have spent his life fighting crime side by side with L. So there you have it, yaoi fans. If not for Ryuk, Death Note could have been on its way to becoming the greatest shounen-ai series ever. Damn you, Ryuk. He just had to show up. Pshh, whatever we still got Near and Mello. Nothing could interrupt that. *cough cough* |
EarlCiel said: Damn you, Ryuk. He just had to show up. Pshh, whatever we still got Matt and Mello. Nothing could interrupt that. *cough cough* Sorry, couldn't resist. I mean come on, Ohba-sensei created Matt for the sole purpose of giving Mello someone to talk to. As for the whole L washing Light's feet thing, yeah, that's definitely a biblical reference. But I also think it's L trying to screw with Light one last time by doing something utterly submissive and intimate, and thus making him as uncomfortable as possible. |
| "Go bald, Kurosaki." |
| No. |
 |
| Hmm.. makes sense. |
 |
| Someone has probably already said this, but it's a reference to Jesus washing Judas' feet before Judas betrayed him. |

| My two cents: L admires Light's intelligence. At the same time, he suspected Light to be Kira. This physical act he did with drying Light's feet could have been his way of both expressing appreciation for his intellect, while at the same time exercising a moment of physical control over him, giving him a sense of conquest. Just a thought. |
| I'm sure they do things in their free time.... |
| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| Considering that they were handcuffed together for, what, a month? Hmmm... all the usual bodily functions have no privacy in this case. |
| Nope. |

And... well, I hadn't seen that point... she told me when they dry each other, the end, the chain thing, and some other things are signals... I saw them and DAMN! I think they were! :o wathcha think Nah. |

| Dude both their names start with L. Obviously. |
Happy Halloween  |
| Whatever, is not like their sexuality is relevant to the story |
 |
| Might be possible but. Nah. |

| I think Light is asexual (or that's how creators portray him as). After all, he wants to become a God and acts like one. Gods usually don't have a gender or sexuality. I don't have a clue about L though. He might be asexual too. I just don't think his sexuality is relevant enough to even mention it. |
| Whenever two guys are paired together it's always gay. Always. |
| This thread is just too old and still makes me laugh. But I used to though that Light was kind of gay. Who the hell would NOT fall for Misa? She's beautiful. Annoying, but beautiful. |

|
| I don't think Light is "asexual," technically. I think he definitely displays more heterosexual tendencies than any possible homosexual overtones that might exist between him and L. I just don't think that he has any inclination towards anything besides using people, females included, towards his psychopathic ends once the Death Note ball gets rolling. |
| Male rivalry=gay Come on now,this ain't a mecha or sport anime. |
| Hell no. |
 |
| By putting all my fangirl desires to the side, which I think everyone should do when answering this question, I say no. I just think they were in unnatural circumstances that could have given off a certain impression that people fed off; by 'unnatural' I mean it's not very typical for the detective's #1 suspect to be working alongside him. Any exchange the two had was always filled with undertones, but not of the sexual kind, just of the "I'm going to get you eventually" kind, that created tension that is misinterpreted by some as a sexual nature. |
