I know I'm late and others might've already pointed this out (I'm too lazy to read all the comments to check :/ ) but Light's dad passed due to "natural" causes (no death note) so even if he hadn't made the deal for the Shinigami eyes, he still only had about a day left to live at most given that the deal takes half of his remaining life span and then passes away after just a few hours.

2025-06-23 10:49:23 +0000 UTCI also think the middle part was weird because Light had lost his edge and become complacent after the years and then that complete defeat and then death of his father woke Kira up completely. I could be wrong here, but it seemed like he felt like the show was interesting again once he could listen to Light's manipulative internal monologues etc lol. Also my take on Light's behaviour is that they say once you become intelligent beyond a certain point, life can become somewhat unbearable and feel meaningless or boring and once you understand human behaviour and understand how to manipulate the emotions of those around you for personal gain. You stop building real connections with people and never truly show yourself to others which isolates yourself as you start to live never as yourself as you put on a massive facade because you think "why am I telling people what I think instead of telling them what they want to hear to get them to do what I want?" . As stated in the first episode Light was extremely bored because he had it all and felt as though the world around him was rotting. He may not have been manipulating people in the past but if he really wanted to back then he definitely could have, the deathnote then acted as an enabler for all those thoughts and feelings in the back of his head, it also gave him a goal and something to work towards and spend time on, like a game. I'm not a therpist or anything and I haven't really studied human behaviour I've just been around my fair share of narcissists and manipulators etc, but I could definitely be wrong about a lot of this.

2025-06-19 21:13:06 +0000 UTCI cried when chief died and Light had emotional breakdown, and i believe this emotional breakdown was pure guilt (if i hadn’t done what i have done my father could still be alive) I agree with you saying about the connections we make and the reminders we have. Tho i hate Light i cried for HIM mostly, not just for the Chief. I cried way more about Light. Because according to my experience, I am a person who feels guilty easily or i am a guilt-ridden person. I tend to feel guilt or responsibility for things, often excessively. And i know when someone is suffering from guilt… i cried in this show when i first watched it 2 times. And that emotional guilt breakdown Light had i felt it to my bones and watching your reaction on that episode i cried again If i wasn’t a guilt-ridden person i would understand this is guilt but i wouldn’t have cried… but i cried. I general in movies and series i don’t cry over deaths, i cry everytime i see a person repent or feel the guilt after realising they caused awful consequences.. something i am battling for 15 years straight I am not saying it’s correct but i truly believe that was pure guilt from Light

2025-06-18 13:18:11 +0000 UTCI'm really glad Death Note led me to your channel. I'm REALLY enjoying your Game of Thrones reaction, and looking forward to getting more of it later. Also looking forward to seeing the end of this finally alongside ya. Hard to resist watching it myself but yeah, it's worth waiting.

2025-06-18 12:02:38 +0000 UTCYeah mostly likely. I’ll run through my thoughts at the end of the series.

2025-06-17 22:02:08 +0000 UTCMy thoughts to the second episode : I totally agree on that middle part feeling somehow weird. For me it was the death of L and kind of 'griefing' and being kinda sad that the good old cat and mouse game was shifted to other people. And I think just like you said it got more intresting for me as a viewer because we get to see more of his character and personality and how it changed or manifest throughout the show. To be totally honest: for me he is an insanely intelligent but manipulative asshole 😂 I am really trying to think what factors he may had to develop such characteristics because I think with NPD or ASD usually there is some kind of trauma involved, right? Please correct me if I am wrong since it's not my profession, just an observation throughout my work and life as a social worker. Similar to BPD too there seems like most of the time there are risk factors. Maybe the abscence of his dad because of his work could play a leading role?

2025-06-17 20:40:15 +0000 UTCI think I’m going to move anyway from the categorical model and more into the dimensional model at some point as a way to explain it. The ICD11 has removed those diagnosis now and the DSMV includes both, I reckon the DSMVI will remove them too. I’ll do a video about it in the end of the series.

2025-06-17 19:12:28 +0000 UTCI can tell u for a fact light does not just have NPD, definitely ASPD. I'm diagnosed with NPD and SPD

2025-06-17 16:34:57 +0000 UTCTotally think you should keep doing these pre-reaction sections for every show (if you have current thoughts about the characters’ journeys, of course). They hit the perfect sweet spot between following along your thought process when you watch and more in-depth analysis.

2025-06-17 16:33:39 +0000 UTCComment to the first Episode since I am not sure if I can watch the second episode directly afterwards. As someone who lost both my parents it made me so angry to see Light just caring about himself. The chief really did everything he could to save his family. Usually I am someone who is too honest and want the truth even if it's not nice. But I am glad the chief could die in peace. If it was real anger Light would have shown... I would understand it because it's one part of griefing BUT since I know, he is just acting like it... really freaks me out.
