Despite many things already mentioned here which make this show a bit worse,
it still does not cease to entertain me. I still have not the slightest clue of what
might happen next.. Not to mention what might happen at the end. ^______^

These L moments never cease to entertain.

Matsuda might be reckless for doing that on his own but at least he managed to pull information off from that infiltration, we'll give him that.


“There are two kinds of arrogance. One where you are unequal to the task and one where your dreams are too big. The former is commonplace stupidity... but the latter is a rare species that is difficult to find.”

It almost feels like a filler, but it was a good filler. A very funny filler, indeed. Matsuda is a very funny guy. I almost thought he was going to have a heart attack of sheer fear.

Light is so....shounen hero right now. Not interested in girls, energetic, and idealistic. That thing really changed him. I wonder if there will be a clash of personality when he gets his memories back. It's like meeting your child self, I think.

This episode was a bit random, but it all worked out I guess.

L's all about detection & sweets.

Matsuda, I don't even know if I should call you stupid to be so reckless or praise you for your quick wit.
It's surprising to see Misa kinda helped him out. Of course those guys fell for that, typical Japanese.

And 7 instead of 8, 1 got killed.

Matsuda is the real MVP pretending to die. That would be so scary dropping down the balcony, even if he knew they would catch him ^^;

Yup, Matsuda is an idiot but I could understand what he felt like being useless all the time and others were thinking he’s always not serious and just thinking like this whole case they’re trying to solve was just a game. He wanted to prove them he can be useful in his own way and finally achieve or contribute something.

Moreover, this episode is really good. That scene with Light and L eating a strawberry shortcake and L gave his strawberry for that guy not to spill his secrets then that guy actually put that strawberry in his pocket! Hahaha!

Also that scene with saving Matsuda was breathtaking and I’m glad he wasn’t get killed by those guys from Yotsuba. Yay! That ending though, looking forward what’s gonna happen next!

Well, at least Misa is loyal to Light.

Hatori get ignored and then killed.

Uhm, I couldn't stand Matsuda in this episode. He was a police, yet he went alone straight to baddies' hideout. Worst episode so far, although, still entertaining.

“we’re so understaffed that I had to be a part of this” LOL that had me laughing

and LOL @ the strawberry 🍓

meh episode.
nothing important is going on.

this is one of those anime is feel awful about because holy shit those first 13 episodes were on a fucking win.
then.. it's now becoming predictable-obvious shit that's even tiring to continue watching.

i really want light to have the death note again, regain his memories & finally have ryuk back in the anime.
that whole memory-loss thing & all that stuff just annoyed me. evil light is so much more entertaining.

Another mediocre episode and a slow downfall for the show although again, its an intentional detour for Light and his journey with the Death Note so its the phase where I just have to put up with it till it hits back. At least Matsuda's antics to save himself from danger against the Yotsuba group were pretty decent not gonna lie, and Misa helped out nicely too in the end.

Matsuda is trying sooo hard, poor guy.

Even though L set up Mr. Yagami to pretend kill Light, he's still brilliant. (His eating and licking his fingers sure gets on my nerves, though).

Misa cracks me up, what a great actress.

Pretty cool how they use the con artists to play along.

Matsuda, lol (*insert sad trombone music) never stop being the butt-monkey. Entertaining episode overall even if this isn't the best arc.

Misa-Misa... what a brat is on stage too.

The ED theme (well, for the last time) used as a ring tone was a nice bonus.

Reminds us that all men, no matter how evil, have the same vices. XD Loved that.


not really... and it's never too late to call out double standards.

Some of the direction choices in this cult classic made my viewing experience even more enjoyable along with the initial intent (and need) to fully binge-out the plot in one sitting. I did find however that some of the "anime comedy tropes" did not fit the series' atmosphere at all at times. Granted, I don't think this affects the show negatively overall, any plot needs moments of relief and some "down-time" between the sets of theatrical drama and grand suspense. So ultimately the plot gives a little bit of everything to everyone, usually at the right time, this show is really good at that which is why I think it garnered a strong reputation among conventional media.
