as a child there's nothing cooler than a kid who gets subjected to evil experiments and gains special abilities. it's even cooler if these abilities also cause unfathomable suffering to use/against others. children love stories like this.

one characterisation of mello I really enjoy is when he has childish fears. he's worried about looking like a fool in front of all these men older than him, despite the power he holds. he's afraid of loud voices, the dark, crowded rooms, all despite how armed he is at all times. acting like he never grew up from being an 8 year old crying over grades

sometimes when I get mad online I have remind myself that the coolest and most reasonable friend I have doesn’t know who dril is and asked me to explain what the acronym “MCU” stands for, because she spends most of her free time watching documentaries about industrial disasters with her girlfriend and going to quarries to collect rocks together. a better world is possible and it’s out there right now

One thing we don’t talk about enough about light Yagami is the fact that he creates stuff. Ryuk was right saying he’s ‘good with his hands’ because we see multiple times him inventing and physically altering things to the point where it is such in interesting character trait. He puts a bomb in his desk (actually sawing and soldering and building himself), alters his watch to pop out after 3 pulls on the tab, he synthesises the L and Watari voices from scratch, he invents the spy phone thing in the manga, it’s just so fascinating that the ‘god of the new world’ who’s so above it all likes getting his hands dirty and is actually really GOOD at it

guy who's having gauzy idealized wife flashbacks for the whole adventure but it turns out she isn't dead or anything he just really misses her and wants to get home

I am truly a giggler. A laugher. A chuckler. Just somewhere in the background snickering.

people are always saying “they have should be at the club” about characters who would immediately have a panic attack if even put in the general vicinity of one
