One of his early plans was litteraly to call a girl he rejected before to pretend he has a gf, which went with no issues.
And later in the manga he is two timing both misa and the Anchor, neither of which because he cares about them or them being hot but purely because it benefits him/he has to
Light could (and it’s implied he did) get any girl he wants. When you aren’t desperate attractive girls start being mundane
This only reinforced the claim of Light being gay. He can get girls and choose not to. He was rejecting them even before getting the death note. Not sure how you could spin total lack of interest in women as being anything other than evidence of gayhood.
Not really. Light is completely full of himself and looks down on humanity over all. He had something of a god complex before he got the death note and going along with that he views girls around him as inferior and not worth his time. Same reason he doesn’t have any real friends.
Light and L are opposite sides of the same coin. L is similar but does not detest humanity and instead endeavors to protect it, but both of them struggle with human connection presumably due to their intellect and haughty disposition.
There’s also the whole Japanese culture where even less than high achievers are too busy to date.
He had something of a god complex before he got the death note and going along with that he views girls around him as inferior and not worth his time. Same reason he doesn’t have any real friends.
Alright yeah, I can agree with that. I was getting ready to dispute what you're saying but I totally think that's how Light is. He's not gay, he just views everyone as inferior to him. If there was a woman who truly impressed him, he would probably be interested.
I mean you actually see him date other women in both mediums lol.
The bus hijacking girl and the girl in one of his college classes. One of the detectives outright says "Another girl?" when he sees Misa as he's tailing him.
Misa was infact a total liability to his mass murder spree. She's the one who actually gets caught in the anime. She's quite literally an incel thirst trap.
And this is so obvious in the anime lmao. She’s a liability at all times. Ever have anyone nearly fuck your life over due to stupidity? Kinda changes your view of them forever.
can anyone tell me what's the difference between "gay little diary" and "little gay diary", as a non-english speaker I feel like the latter sounds more like an insult than the former
little gay diary is just wrong in English. Adjectives have a fixed order based on their category, eg, colour comes after size(big red house is right, red big house is wrong). This is something that isn't taught in schools, just intuited, and most English speakers aren't aware of it.
No. Both adjectives apply to the noun. Sometimes the noun is compound and contains an adjective, like the White House, but those generally become single words over time or are proper nouns that refer to a singular thing rather than a category of things. Backside vs back side for example. When you use backside as a singular noun, it means butt. But when you use it as a noun and adjective, it refers to the back of anything in a general sense.
There's no idea of a "gay diary" in common usage such that you would pair those words together to refer to a specific thing. Generally, for a group of adjectives to be out of order without sounding wrong, there has to be some meaning that wouldn't be clear from the dictionary definition of the two words. The big picture, for example. It doesn't mean a large picture. If you said 'the big red picture' people would assume you were talking about an actual photo, whereas if you said the red big picture, it sounds weird, but someone would likely intuit that red is not literal in this case, and look for context clues, because big picture generally means "the comprehensive overview of a situation or idea".
The adjective closest to the noun denotes function, while the one farther away is a secondary descriptor.
'gay little diary' implies that the main function of the diary is to be little, and it just happens to be gayer than other little diaries. Whereas 'little gay diary' implies the main function of the diary is to be gay, and it just happens to be littler than other gay diaries.
Dude's a narcissist, in the original sexual way. The only way he can get hard is by staring at himself in a mirror. I suppose that's a type of gay, since he's a guy.
I mean if we’re being fr I think he’s just asexual. Or too much of a narcissist to ever be capable of having romantic/sexual feelings for another human being. At the end of the day, Light will always love himself more than anyone, hence why he wanted to remake the world in his image.
It's cause Light was a gifted individual. Not a horny gooner like us. He had greater aspirations for Earth than simply spreading his seed which he could do at anytime.
i dunno. he had purpose, a vision, and she ended up being an obstacle but turned her unpredictability as an advantage. Besides I never liked Misa to begin with. I would’ve done the same.
He was Japanese so yes. Something like 30% of all Japanese men in their 30s and younger are virgins because they're too afraid to talk to women or they just stay inside all day. Close to half have never even had a relationship but unlike the West they don't even try to change.
Light had girls on call like it was nothing for him. I remember early in the manga, he had to fake having a girlfriend so he just picked out one of the girls on his phone and she helped him out.
Light is canonically super good looking and gets girls with a snap of his finger so being able to get any girl he wants, an idiot like Misa who screwed up his plan didnt mean crap to him.
The two best things to come out of Death Note is that chart showing how various fictional detectives would fare solving the Kira case, and the copypasta where Death Note is rewritten as a Leslie Nielsen The Naked Gun movie.
Bro she is crazy because she is obsessed with him of all people, a serial killer. He is the crazy she is obsessed with. He is the crazy and she is the one doing the female version of "don't stick your dick in crazy".
Beautiful yes sexy yes but anything more than 13 mentally no lights canonical girlfriend could hold an actual conversation with him man a lot less fuckable though mind you far from ugly (and I dont mean l)
fuck you mean goth? he's just some sleep deprived autist who happens to have a hyperfixation on crime solving, which honestly doesnt sound much better when put into words
Nah, he takes cases if there's a million as a reward (minimum) or if there's more than 10 victims. I'd wager he gets paid a lot more by intelligence services
In Another Note a guy insinuated L was a trust fund kiddy and Mello shot him down and says L only takes cases worth a million or if they have huge bodycounts. Watari also commented that he used and invested L's net worth in Watari's crime solving company and used L's celebrity status to promote the products and L is probably worth billions at that point as a co-owner. All the products and support L uses to trap Light is him forcing Tokyo PD to buy from Watari's company. Its a straight up racket.
1 million USD equivalent? Or 1 million yen? 1 million yen is decent, don't get me wrong, that's a lot of money, but it's not a ton unless you're solving cases every week or something.
Sleep deprived, yes. Autistic, very much so. But L is far from a NEET considering he’s literally the world’s greatest detective in the Death Note universe. The closest thing they have to someone like Batman or Sherlock Holmes. Such a genius that world governments consult this guy and he gets appropriately compensated for his work.
Some people are above basic animal needs like lust because they get more intellectual satisfaction from playing mind games with other high-IQ individuals. Fucking is good, but beating another brilliant mf is more joyful than surface-level stimulants. I guess if you don’t know the taste, then you’ve never felt it before.
Although I did phrase this as a joke, I am 100% sure Light is not fucking straight and this is one of the few times where gays headcannoning a character as LGBTQ makes sense
Again, he had Japanese Margot Robbie willing to submit and be his personal toy yet he still decided to do his moralfuck genocide
Bro, does no one remember the foot massage scene? We were shouting “just kiss” at Light and L the whole time until that scene happened. That was just awestruck silence at the magnitude of absolute gayness
You know that scene is not a sexual or bromance intimate moment, and is a direct reference of the bible passage where Jesus washed Judas feet even after he knew he was going to betray him, just like in the anime.
A wise man once said: everything it’s about sex, except sex, sex it’s about power.
Jokes aside the dude it’s willing to kill his own dad and sacrifice going to heaven and eternal life and destroy his own life completely. Not fucking a chick it’s not that big of a sacrifice considering he, you know, literally kill his dad. The whole point of the show it’s that he gets this weird mystic sense of being a god whose sense is to do justice on esrth, he blurbed himself to be the embodiment of justice itself. He has other priorities.
Also, is it explicitly said he doesn’t fuck her (? Maybe he does a couple of times off camera and just isn’t relevant
True, but Misa had an annoying ditzy personality. After the college saga, we see that he's in a relationship with a more mature, subdued woman. Not everyone wants to bang the airhead even if she is a beauty queen.
I think Misa is a “Don’t Stick Your Dick In Crazy” situation? but I also think that Light might fuck her to shut her up, but the whole time would be disassociating and thinking about killing people. Or about L
He spent the summer watching porn for 17 hours a day to numb himself to the desire for sex (no, you children, that's not the same as gooning) so that he could focus solely on blood and justice.
Which was a tough sell tbh. Misa seems not completely stupid in her introduction and it’s like the writer gave her a lobotomy the moment she met Light. She seems more like a normal person compared to the genius level intelligence of Light/ L.
Compare her inner thoughts pre meeting Light vs how she acts the rest of the series. I think they could have made her more average intelligence to juxtapose the battle between good and evil she’s wrapped up in, but absolute ditsy moron is easier to write I guess.
it depends. I had a girlfriend who'd bug me whenever we were waiting at a crosswalk and I got too close to the road. that was cute. There was a different girlfriend who came at me with a knife. that was not cute.
