The cool thing about death note is you could feasibly explain the basic premise of it like the mechanics of the note and also L and lights weird homoerotic shit and you would have a pretty good idea of what the entire plot is like without ever having to explain the terrifying floating clown monster
Yeah the terrifying death god who looks like a clown, likes apples, and follows you at all times
He is just hanging out
#does he actually do anything the entire show#i watched the first episode and it was boring. so i stopped#but from what i coudl tell he really jast didnt do shit ever
He really didn't. He will very occasionally do something very minor if it helps him (like when Light's house is under surveillance and he can't eat apples inside any more, he finds all the cameras hoping for a blind spot where he can eat apples), but on the whole it's a massive victory for Light to get him to do anything at all. He really is just there to watch and heckle because he had nothing else going on.
