Matsudapilled

YESSSS i’ve been waiting for this question!! Before watching death note, undertale was my main fandom(i still love it). And in the way i love matsuda, i loved papyrus. Like… so so much. I couldn’t even watch(or sometimes think about) his death scenes without tearing up, yada yada.

fast forward to november of 2025, and light was actually my favorite for a bit, just in more of a regular sense(no shade to light obviously. I still like him). but i really loved matsuda from the start. i had just already verbally established light as my favorite, so i just went with it. But like… over time i just realized that i really really loved matsuda so much more, and i also just kinda understood more about what kind of characters I like.

i did some kind reflection when i kinda embraced matsuda as my favorite and noticed the similarities to him and papyrus😭 they’re both young, naive, hopeful optimists and who technically act as antagonists but dont actually threaten the main character at all. It’s just stuff like that that is just oouuugh i could eat it up.

however, i also think he has objectively the best take on kira(maybe im biased idk). Kira’s methods are messed up, but it’s undeniable that he’s still improving the world, and he can’t hate him for that. I also love that he’s also a comic relief, but still has depth to his character. I’ve touched on this before, but i really hate how the fandom tends to ignore how actually interesting of a character he is and not just the silly cop on the task force. Tl;dr i love matsuda because he’s everything i want in a character. Someone who’s extremely optimistic and hopeful, but still really naive(and highkey lonely. Idk why). I love him if you couldnt tell <3

[VERY SCARY AND FRIGHTENING]
