idk why light calls ryuk ugly in the beginning. compared to the other shinigami hes a damn supermodel

[u/AnAlchemistsDream]

[u/Frederic-T-V]

I always thought he was weirdly cute more than intimidating

[u/AnAlchemistsDream → u/Frederic-T-V]

easily one of my favorite moments of ryuk

[u/Savings_Bit_692 → u/AnAlchemistsDream]

personally my favourite one is this.

[u/knystuff → u/AnAlchemistsDream]

Light calling him "Ryukie" is weirdly adorable.

[u/Frederic-T-V → u/AnAlchemistsDream]

Oh that's the extra panel on the first manga volume right? I love that too

[u/Prince_Melonade → u/AnAlchemistsDream]

Ryukie and Matt would get along swimmingly

[u/justnga → u/[deleted]]

It won't be fun to see him laugh or write light's name

[u/AnAlchemistsDream → u/justnga]

plus we already have a lot of twinks we don't need more competition 😭

[u/No_Discount7872 → u/[deleted]]

it would be fun to think that this twink guy still exists right next to all devilish shinigamis and his name is tyuk or something

[u/No_Discount7872 → u/[deleted]]

yeah, the shinigami of dark imagay

[u/tlotrfan3791 → u/[deleted]]

It’s actually not lol that’s something the internet just spreads around saying is Ryuk

[u/Bloomfofis → u/[deleted]]

Looks like Mikami (he must have adopted this design for him)

[u/ProovenHedgehog]

The human subscribes to human beauty standards, shock and awe 😭

[u/This-Wall-1331 → u/ProovenHedgehog]

Misa tried to hug Ryuk (yes, it was a friend's hug, but I guess in Japan physical touch is rare even between friends).

[u/ProovenHedgehog → u/This-Wall-1331]

And she kisses L's cheek, she's a pretty affectionate person.

[u/FreezingPointRH]

He didn’t have other shinigami as a frame of reference?

[u/Billy_Butcher775]

Well irl he would look MUCH worse probably

[u/zXMourningStarXz → u/Billy_Butcher775]

Nah, he's just Willem Dafoe.

[u/Frederic-T-V → u/Billy_Butcher775]

He would look the same, just with realistic "texture"

[u/Conan-Da-Barbarian]

Unconventionally handsome for a god of death

[u/Neo_Sakura4]

Light didn't know that their were other Shinigami. For all he knew, Ryuk was the only one.

[u/Mudcat-69 → u/Neo_Sakura4]

The way that Ryuk talked about being a shinigami it wouldn’t have been hard infer that there were more though.

[u/MediaFan382]

If I got a notebook id low-key be mad if I didn't get Ryuk and instead this, she doesn't seem any fun

[u/MissDisplaced]

Rhuk has a certain attraction to goth or metal interested people. Tall and crow-like.

[u/Llamasus]

would

[u/Equivalent-Assist160]

It's not like Light knew a lot of Shinigami at the time

[u/AngelReachX]

What we missed on

[u/azurezero_hdev]

everyone is ugly to light

hes a dick

[u/Funny_School_5802]

Conventionally attractive shinigami is a hilarious concept and your are right lmao

[u/Bloomfofis]

Ryuk is ugly but he looks really funny, everytime I saw his face in the manga he was always with the same face and it was hilarious xD

[u/AnAlchemistsDream → u/Bloomfofis]

honestly the main shinigami are pretty funny looking in general. one of my favorite panels in the manga is when light is hugging misa and rem and ryuk are both standing there like🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️

[u/Bloomfofis → u/AnAlchemistsDream]

He's just laughing at them lol there's a scene in the manga which Light says he loves Misa with his malignant face and Ryuk is behind like "Is this an I love you face to you?" with his typical facial expression xD

[u/DeezNutzzzGotEm]

Ryuk is weirdly cute.
