Honestly I haven’t really rewatched this (especially the beginning) since the first time I watched it back in 6th grade which tbf probably wasn’t age appropriate. I did really enjoy it the first time of course but idk I don’t usually rewatch plot heavy series because I already know what’s happened. But I do remember when I watched it as a kid, I honestly was supporting Light for the first episode or maybe two (idk exactly when I switched to supporting L but I’m pretty sure it was around the the part where he killed the ‘innocent’ guy just because he didn’t agree)— it’s insane how black and white my interpretation of the world was then. I was a kid and I guess like “bad” people should die so they can’t keep hurting anyone else and also the ‘warning’ for other people to not commit crimes made some sense to me. I also didn’t have any nuance about good vs bad as a sheltered kid, but like I think it felt like the more ‘edgy’ like Lights pov here with people in society versus how they actually think, but like even while watching this series my pov flipped entirely not just because of this show but just because I was growing as a person. Rewatching this now I’m like how in the world could I have ever ‘supported’ Light because he was pretty psychotic even through the first episode. Also knowing all the systematic issues now or even by the time I got to high school the whole idea is so insane lol. It’s pretty startling to think how much I’ve changed from that time in my life even though as a kid I thought I was so mature and like wise lol. Like you don’t really realize it until some moments like this come up lol. Thanks for the reaction and I’m loving the philosophical and sociological discussions you’ve been bringing up! Love y’all!

Ryuk is honestly loveable lol how I approach him is he's a ancient death God that lived in limbo for Gods only know how long and humans are only one of thousands of species. What are human lives to a death God? So it makes complete sense that he is abject of human morals therefore, we can't expect him to sympathize with humans and can't hold him accountable for that, for he doesn't know right from wrong in human terms. 😌 In conclusion, Ryuk is my 3rd favorite character and I have no regrets. After all, the Christian God has a whole laundry list compared to Ryuk's bout of "I'm bored, let's watch humans screw with each other" lol

lol yeah, monotheists keep avoid reading the Old Testament as if it never happened lmao but YHWH was clearly a psychopath.
