L wasn’t trying to confirm that light was Kira, he already knew that. He was only trying to get solid proof.

Everybody Kira till the entire Alphabet gets up to beat you.

You would’ve thought Kira had took an L but little did he know the end was near

I once read a comment that said, “Light cared about L’s death, Kira didn’t,” and it has stuck with me ever since.

I feel like people hate Near because L was too lovable they can't get over him

I love the line "you're just a serial killer. nothing more, nothing less.

cliche death note comment : The world without L is just a word

The fact that Light is brought down by someone who says “you ain’t special. the death note is special.” when Light is so convinced he’s a god is a spicy and delicious take. Love Near, the fans need to get wise to his awesome.

L wasn’t afraid when he found out that shinigami exist he was shocked because his insane theory’s are right

It's been 15 years but still people talk about DEATH NOTE

The author confirmed that when L. Said light was his first friend he was lying, L. had no friends and was just trying to lore light in

"The Boy Who Cornered God"

Wtf this title is one of the best I've ever read

I think that Near and Mello are underestimated, tho I think that it'd have been a lot better if the anime had taken it's time to properly breathe and develop the characters more and etc

I like Near and Mello's relation. While Near seemed to care less about Mello, Mello was just mad about how he was always No.2 and was jealous of Near. Yet at last when both of them knew that catching Kira and saving the world was much bigger than their own private rivalry, Mello sacrificed his life to make work easy for Near. And after winning at last, Near owed his victory to Mello. OUTSTANDING. Wish they got more screentime.

The thing that truly set Near apart from all the other geniuses is that he had no ego. L had a bit of ego, he got depressed when he felt he was wrong. Light had the biggest ego of anyone in the entire series, and died in the end because he became more delusional ego than person at that point. Mello had huge ego and an inferiority complex from feeling lesser to Near. But Near, he had no ego. He just looked at reality, and worked it. He didn't care about getting one up or making someone look bad or feeling like a big baller. He just cared about getting the result.

The dart scene with Near is very important. He's good at all games and puzzles, but he absolutely sucks at darts. He misses every single time. How does he react to his miss? Does he get depressed like L because he missed? Does he get angry and emotional like Mello and Light? No. He picks up another dart, and throws again. Near was the one character in this story that did not allow his misses or him being behind to affect him. He really didn't care, he just kept throwing darts. He didn't allow the noise in his head or the noise around him to affect his actions. He had no ego, therefore nobody could manipulate him by any means. No matter what was said or done, Near was still going to go for the result. And the result is what he got.

Near is the Ultra Instinct of the mind. No ego, no anger, no obsession, no superiority, no inferiority. Just pure, straight to the point thought.

Why the 4k likes?

L was more of a risk taker and confrontational in this case and in general. Near was more like you said set traps, observe, strategist, force opponent to make a mistake without up right in person confrontation

This is why I think most people's hate of Near is misplaced. Just hearing this analysis if I had never seen death note, Near's cold calculation and lack of ego would make him mine and most other people's favorite character. The problem is that he doesn't show up until late in the series. Over the first few episodes you like either Light or L and cheer for them to win, and when at the end of it all a third party is the one left standing, I think a lot of people felt dissatisfied

Braaah when he said "the boy who cornered god" I got a shiver down my spine
