Shitpost but serious

Love this little scene of L and Watari and how he immediately went into dad mode when L wasn’t feeling okay 😖❤️

I don't think the story ever consciously addresses this. The Watsonian explanation for that would be that we don't really get to see exactly WHAT values Light's dad instills in his children - he's a major character, but Light spends far more time putting him on a pedestal than actually engaging with him. A couple Doylist explanations might be either that Ohba didn't condone Light's actions, and considered an outside exploration of his motivations to be either uninteresting to explore, or perhaps too much of a challenge to pull off in a story that so heavily revolves around the protagonist's inner monologue. I think it's far more likely, though, that this wasn't intentional - Light's dad was a cop so that he could be on the Kira taskforce and we could get the drama of Light being hunted by his own father, and the blind spots that created for both characters. Knowing the story, and how these characters are used, I find it hard to believe there were intentional ramifications beyond that. But that doesn't change the fact that they're there, and more than anything it serves as an explanation for why Light was the way he was.

Light of My Life.

Oldhead still makes their yaoi animation the flipnote fashioned way

Also happy birthday Mikami!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I was gonna draw something for his birthday but got too caught up in drawing Light.. gulp.. (also watched TADC last act in theaters)

I know its because they decided to change his design, but it's more entertaining to imagine that he got it trimmed because Watari told him that he needed one so he can meet the Task force or smth

this should've taken like max a week but i was busy asf and also John Procrastination
