LEGEND/GOD

au where Light’s memory loss is accidentally permanent and he spends the rest of the series helping L in his lifelong attempt to track down the mysteriously vanished Kira

Everyone dunking on my mans Light for being “less likable” than Minoru smh….. sorry that literally everything Light does is iconic and that’s true for 12 entire volumes of manga, Minoru is cool too but he could never pull off an evil laugh or a good ol’ pair of khaki slacks

I watched Light eat one (1) potato chip a hundred times and had fun. Minoru could never. Sorry boy.

And you think the next time Ryuk decides to come mess with Earth he’s gonna be like ‘oh gotta find somebody like that Minoru Tanaka, somebody who can feed me apples for all of 2 weeks and get my ass called to the Shinigami principal’s office’? Naw. He’s still thinking ‘wonder if there’s anyone like Light Yagami’ at the end and the answer is no. Man’s a bastard but he’s a legend

Amen

Amen

Amen

“Light May be a bastard, but he’s a legend.” He entertained a Death God for SEVEN. YEARS. Minoru could fucking never. ALSO. All his claims about wanting to be the ‘God of the New World’? HE SUCCEEDED. Whether the textbooks called him evil or not, he made history. That is nothing to sneeze at. Legend indeed.

Can we take a moment to realize that Light really made Ryuk sapiosexual and now he goes around looking for smart guys

MINORU TANAKA IS AN ANGEL, THE ONLY CHARACTER FROM DEATH NOTE WHO DID NOTHING WRONG AND DESERVES THE WORLD, THE TRUE ANTI-CAPITALISM KING WE DESERVE, HE SAID FUCK AMERICA, I'M GONNA GIVE MY MONEY TO THE PEOPLE AND I RESPECT HIM WITH ALL MY HEART 🙏🏼✨ BITCH I REALLY AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GUY WHO DOESN'T EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH, I'M 💖💙💚💜💞💟❣💝💗❤💘💓💕💫✨💥 FROM NOW ON THIS WILL BE AN ONLY MINORU TANAKA STAN ACCOUNT I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT HIM FOREVER I HAVE NO OTHER INTEREST IN THIS WORLD.

Trying not be a downer here, but I think you might be missing a point? Minoru didn't kill people, yes, but he indirectly could've by giving it to people of power who clearly isn't gonna use it for peace. Also, he just wanted to be rich. The reason he gave 1B to other people was for camouflage. Anyway, what I'm saying is, Minoru is not an angel and what he did was wrong so that's why he dies. But he's practical and smart, for sure.
