"L. Lawliet." "I've decided there's nothing I won't do!" "Goodbye." "L. Lawliet." "He's alive?" "How is he still alive?" "The human whose name is written in this Note shall die." "If the cause of death is not specified, the person will simply die of a heart attack." "If you lose the Death Note or it is stolen, you will lose ownership of it unless you retrieve it within 490 days." "ownership lose" "L. Lawliet." "That is indeed my name." "It can't be..." "This isn't the Death Note?" "Yes." "It's a fake that Watari created." "Yagami Light." "No..." "Kira." "You cannot kill me." "That was a fake?" "Yes." "If Light-kun is Kira, he may have been tricked into confessing by now." "So L won?" "My name is" "written in this notebook in your handwriting." "Proof better than a confession." "Thank you." "Why not just admit that you're Kira already?" "That's right." "I'm Kira." "My inference was correct from the start." "Ever since I used Lind L. Tailor as my stand-in." "Justice always wins." "Justice always wins." "No, it doesn't." "That's why Kira was born." "No, it doesn't, that's why Kira was born!" "I will destroy your childish plans." "You think the police can do something like this?" "Do you really think you're needed?" "It's saving a lot of people." "The things no one else can do..." "Kira can do!" "You're just a murderer." "I'm punishing evil." "Do you feel like you're God?" "Kira could become God!" "From my perspective, you're just a hopeless, stupid murderer." "And..." "You were my only friend." "I wish we could have met in some other way." "This is the only way we could have met." "L!" "Light-kun!" "Time's up." "I want you to atone for your crimes." "Why did you cut the broadcast partway in?" "What are you two doing?" "Yagami-san." "I'm going to tell you everythi—" "What's wrong, L?" "L!" "What is it?" "I am Kira." "L!" "L!" "L!" "L!" "L!" "He's not conscious!" "This is Himura." "Send an ambulance to Isokawa Warehouse right away." "L!" "L!" "L..." "I'm sorry." "Light-kun!" "Light, calm down." "What's going on?" "What happened here?" "I..." "L..." "I killed him." "L called me out here abruptly." "He told me to admit that I was Kira." "I kept telling him I'm not..." "But he wouldn't believe me!" "L told me his real name." "He said, "Try and kill me."" "I said, "I'm not Kira, so I could never do that." Over and over again." "He tried to write my name in the notebook." "Yagami Li" "This is it." "L really tried to kill Light-kun?" "That's why" "I..." "L. Lawliet." "I killed L." "Light, you didn't kill him." "That's a fake." "What do you mean?" "L entrusted me with the real notebook." "I have it in safekeeping." "I never even told L where it is." "So why did L make a fake?" "Likely to get Light to confess." "At any rate, writing a name in that notebook wouldn't kill anyone." "Someone else killed L." "Then..." "You aren't Kira." "Bring L." "Right." "Thanks." "Well done, Mikami." "It is as you commanded, My God." "It's been a while, Light-chan!" "Ryuk." "It has been a while..." "You finally got L, huh?" "Yeah." "I killed him." "I won." "I beat L." "L is?" "Yes." "Yes." "I understand." "What's wrong?" "Watari?" "I must change his shirt." "It seems it was heavily dirtied." "What happened?" "L is..." "Dead." "Dead?" "Dead?" "Was it Kira?" "Mello!" "Are you saying he killed him?" "Is that it?" "!" "I don't know!" "I don't know the particulars!" "You've got to be shitting me!" "I'm the one who was supposed to kill L." "That son of a bitch." "I'll kill him!" "Please, calm down!" "Mello!" "Near!" "Hold Mello back!" "L..." "L..." "L... you were right about everything." "You're in Kanto, aren't you?" "You are Kira, aren't you?" "I still suspect you of being Kira." "I appreciate your talent." "Be my friend." "That's the favor I wanted." "So admit you've lost." "That you're Kira." "You were just wrong about one thing." "Listen to me!" "Justice always wins!" "It's not that justice wins." "The one who wins is justice." "This is really goodbye, L. Lawliet." "You really do make such willful requests..." "This is..." "I will avenge L." "Light..." "I'll solve the Kira case." "As a parting gift to L." "Because we're going to catch Kira, right L?" "Now I can stay in the Countermeasures Office." "Now I just have to wait for the right time to get the" "Death Note that's in my father's possession." "L..." "Dummy." "This is no time to be crying." "I'm not crying." "With L gone, deceiving the men in the Countermeasures Office will be a simple matter." "Everyone!" "Are you all here?" "Watari-san." "Thank you all for coming here for L today." "It was his strong wish that you all be here to lay him to rest." "That's what he said in his video." "Yes." "L has a message for all of you." "L..." "L!" "I am L." "That bastard." "Even dead, he's still trying to sabotage me!" "The fact that this video is playing means that" "I have reached my final rest in the land of Japan." "What is this?" "It's rather like a video message L left behind before he passed." "Message?" "He left quite a bit of data behind, and it seems to offer a hint as to Kira's identity." "What kind of hint?" "Now, Matsuda-san." "Don't be so impatient." "This isn't live, is it?" "L anticipated everything." "Matsuda-san." "Please wipe your nose." "Wh-Who cares!" "Anyway, enough joking around." "In the end, I was unable to catch Kira." "It's possible that the Kira investigation has grown more complicated than I anticipated." "Thus, I will introduce my successor in running the Kira Countermeasures Office." "Successor?" "His name is "Near."" "Near..." "I have already told the higher-ups in the police force about this." "Everyone, please work with Near to expose Kira's identity and capture him." "And... please take all due caution to keep Kira from stealing that killer notebook." "How long will these people continue to..." "Near, I've brought everyone here." "I'm Near." "Hello, Yagami-san!" "Hello." "You've met?" "L introduced us before he passed." "He prepared for this?" "The name "Near" is..." "Like L, merely an alias, of course." "But even if the higher-ups have acknowledged this... right?" "How old are you?" "Is it not okay because I'm a minor?" "No, not necessarily." "There's no need to worry." "Near, please update everyone on the situation." "I believe the Kira who killed L is in the Public Prosecutors Office." "On what basis?" "L was killed because his name was seen." "Which means they saw his face?" "Yes." "The day L was killed, in addition to you all, the only ones who saw L's face were..." "The Prosecutors Office!" "Bingo." "That day, the ones who came to confiscate the notebook were..." "Fifteen people, including Mikami Teru, Yamanobe Takayuki, Yokowada Ken, and Sawajima Ryuji." "Public Prosecutor Public Prosecutor Public Prosecutor Yamanobe Takayuki Mikami Teru Yokowada Ken" "Amazing." "Look, he's just as good as L!" "Okay, let's investigate these public prosecutors." "Right!" "L, just how much have you told Near about me?" "Light-san!" "Can I call you Light-san?" "If I called you "Yagami-san," it would be the same as what I call your father." "If I called you "Yagami-san," it would be the same as what I call your father." "Yeah." "Sure." "Thank you." "L told me that you were his best friend." "I'm very happy to get to investigate with you." "Light-san, let's do our best to work together!" "The feeling's mutual." "Let's work together." "A child from beginning to end." "He can't hold a candle to L." "You were the only one worthy of being called an enemy, L." "You two investigate the five Public Prosecutors, starting with Mikami." "Right." "Himura-san, what about the administrative officials?" "I'm investigating now." "Here's our next story." "Today, in Taito Ward, a man forced his way into a consumer credit union," "The Suspect, Yonoo Akasuke (36) killed four employees, and escaped with 3 million yen." "Be on your guard" "I'm not seeing anything suspicious." "Not in any of them." "It's possible he was just wrong." "Thank you for your warning." "It saved me." "You weren't followed?" "Of course not." "The Countermeasures Office has begun to suspect public prosecutors." "Will it be dangerous to continue?" "No." "Since you have the shinigami eyes, we still hold the advantage." "I'd like you to continue your judgments as Kira's right arm, if you would." "Lord God." "But I would like to reduce the burden on any one person as much as possible." "Where's your notebook?" "Here." "Take it." "Hey there, Light!" "You remember what you said to me when you gave up that notebook?" "You forgot?" "!" "You said you'd show me even more interesting things!" "Isn't that right, Yagami Light?" "Of course, Ryuk." "Now that my obstacle is removed, I already know what I'm going to do." "Light!" "Titty Girl!" "Misa." "What?" "What's this guy doing here?" "Misa..." "I thought we were going on a date!" "Are we not?" "I think this will make you happier than any date." "You found the notebook you were looking for?" "I'm so glad!" "Touch it." "Death Note." "Shinigami." "I started this battle myself." "Yagami Light" "I'm writing your name in my Death Note." "The one who punished him was you." "I'll share it with you:" "Kira's dream." "Kira..." "Make sure you never take this scrap of paper off your body." "Then your memories won't go away." "Light..." "And from now on, you're going to perform judgments with me." "You must do exactly as I tell you, without any deviations." "Okay!" "Misa." "Mikami." "It's possible I'm acting rashly." "But this will be a great step forward for humanity." "Creating a world without criminals, where only kind-hearted people can live." "If that's what the world wants, then that day will come." "I'm going to show you." "The curtain's rising on the new world Kira will create." "Curtain's rising, huh?" "And I..." "Will be the God of this new world!" "It's gotten interesting." "Suspect Naniwa Nekono Wanted on Suspicion of Serial Arson" "The suspect, Naniwa Nekono (28)" "Kira's judgments grew fiercer." "Kira's "Purges" Ongoing" "Security camera catches image of culprit in Shinagawa Robbery-Murder" "Even if the culprit's name was not revealed," "Mitoya Ryoji" "Kira continued to punish them." "Delete." "Delete." "Delete." "Delete." "What's wrong?" "Ryo-chan!" "Amane Misa Meet-and-Greet" "Thank you so much!" "Here's our next story." "At dawn today, in Setagaya..." "In order to deter Kira," "Man Robs Convenience Store, Kills Clerk." "the police tried obscuring the culprits' faces during the broadcasts." "I'm cheering for you!" "But immediately after..." "Kakigo Kinta" "The criminals' identities began to be leaked on the internet." "Kakigo Kinta, 30 years old, from the Setagaya convenience store robbery." "We have confirmation of his cause of death." "It was a heart attack after all." "Damn it." "These daily Kira judgments are insane." "Ironically, crime rates have sharply dropped." "Almost like we're the real bad guys because we're trying to catch Kira." "Matsuda!" "Sorry!" "Is this really okay?" "He's the detective L chose." "We just have to trust him." "But he's really not as good as L, is he?" "Representative Imaizaka is receiving support within his party." "He also said that it is important to find ways to cooperate with Kira." "Representative Omori Speaks in Favor of Kira" "Just between you and me... bullying and stuff has dropped in my school, too." "Delinquency, too." "Thanks to Kira, maybe?" "Don't tell Dad, okay?" "I won't." "The new world where everyone accepts Kira:" "It's come this far already!" "Let me know if you need more pages." "Let me know if you need more pages." "Is it about time I took back the Death Note?" "Let me know if you need more pages." "Delete this message?" "This 1-message thread will be deleted Cancel Delete" "Hey." "How long are you gonna keep losing?" "Don't be impatient." "Be more impatient!" "The more you wait around, the bolder Kira becomes!" "The seeds have been planted." "I'd rather cull them before they start sprouting." "Just what is this successor of L's doing?" "Public opinion is shifting in favor of Kira!" "We're continuing our investigation in order to stop that." "You still don't even know how it is that Kira kills!" "Find Kira already!" "Right this way." "How'd things go with the Superintendent?" "I still haven't told the higher-ups about the notebook." "I see." "We allow for the possibility of pranks causing a panic out in the world when we haven't even caught Kira." "Yeah." "So it's only the people here who know about the notebooks?" "I guess letting the public know about the notebooks really would cause a panic." "Yeah." "If that were to happen, someone might even try to steal the notebook." "L warned us about that." "In that case... should you really be the only person watching over it?" "Maybe you should divide up the risk." "Hey, why not let us help you?" "I can't place the people under my leadership in danger." "That includes you." "I'm doing everything I can to keep it safe." "Sorry, but I can't tell you where it's hidden, either." "That's fine." "That's probably the safest way." "Damn it." "Sayu!" "We're home!" "What's going on?" "Hey, Sayu!" "Incoming Call Unknown Caller" "Yes?" "Is this the Chief Inspector?" "Just call me a friend of your daughter." "What did you do to my daughter?" "I want to trade her for something." "Something?" "The notebook." "Dad!" "She's not here!" "Recording Voice Memo" "Where did you take my daughter?" "I know it's pointless to tell you not to tell the police about this, but you must act alone." "All I want is that notebook." "If I see any larger action on the part of the police," "I will kill your daughter." "Put my daughter on the line." "I want to confirm that she's okay." "Wait for my next call." "Hey." "Hey!" "Incoming Email Subject:" "None" "Sayu..." "Sayu..." "Will this do?" "Damn it." "Who could have done this?" "He wanted to make an exchange for Sayu." "An exchange?" "For the killer notebook." "All I want is that notebook." "If I see any larger action on the part of the police," "I will kill your daughter." "Why Sayu-chan?" "Chief." "What are we doing?" "Let's call the department!" "Wait!" "You heard him." "If the police take action, he'll kill her!" "But if we don't do anything..." "Yagami-san, do you have any idea who the kidnapper could be?" "I see." "In that case, this might be..." "The work of Kira." "Kira?" "The world doesn't know about the notebook." "The only ones who know about it are the people in this room and Kira." "And the fact that Kira's judgments are continuing is a sign that there's another killer notebook out there." "Kira's using that to carry out judgments." "He probably wants to acquire the Death Note in the police's custody and take complete control over the world." "There's a very clear motive." "Of course." "First killing L, now kidnapping..." "What a piece of shit." "Let's catch him soon." "Anyway, let's save Sayu-san first thing!" "Okay!" "Chief, it's okay." "We'll get Sayu-chan back safely." "Right." "Near." "Sorry to say, but you missed the mark." "Public Prosecutor Mikami Teru" "Delete." "Mikami wouldn't move without my direction." "Delete." "Delete." "Misa wouldn't either." "The person behind this is someone besides Kira who knows about the Death Note." "The fact that he went after Sayu means it must be someone who knows my father has the Note, and someone who knows our family structure." "In other words..." "There's a traitor in this room." "Yesterday?" "I don't think I saw anyone suspicious." "I see." "Thank you." "Sorry for taking your time." "Excuse me." "Could I have a minute of your time?" "The culprit must be someone in the Countermeasures Office." "Just what is he after?" "Welcome back." "Thanks." "Yagami-san." "Please, take a break." "Don't worry." "We'll get Sayu back safe." "Just a little bit longer." "Footage taken from security cameras Near hacked." "He can get into almost all of the ones in Kanto." "Amazing." "Oh, I found Sayu-san." "Who's that with her?" "H-Hey..." "No way!" "So it was her." "Himura-san..." "Why?" "Where is Himura-san?" "Actually, yesterday she said she was going to the department and she hasn't been back since." "Watari, put Yagami-san's cellphone on speaker." "Go ahead." "This is Yagami." "Chief." "Himura-kun." "It seems you've found out about me." "Why did you..." "Sayu..." "Sayu is safe, isn't she?" "Sayu!" "Dad, what's with this woman?" "Give me the Death Note and I'll give back your daughter." "You understand the meaning of what I'm saying, don't you?" "Chief..." "What's going on, Himura-san?" "Why are you doing this?" "That's right!" "Be rational!" "I am being rational." "It's just..." "I want the Death Note, that's all." "This damned woman." "So she gave in to the temptation..." "Chief." "No..." "Yagami-san." "Give me the Death Note." "I know you have a strong sense of responsibility, so you'll be very resistant to the idea of handing over a deadly weapon like that." "Please, think about it." "I'll contact you again in 30 minutes." "Hey." "What kind of person is Himura-san?" "What kind?" "Well..." "I don't really know..." "She worked under the Chief." "But she specifically asked you to be added to the Kira investigation, didn't she?" "The first one who suggested that the "Kira" people had started talking about might be behind the ongoing heinous criminal murders..." "Was her." "Excuse me for interrupting you when you're busy." "Are you Chief Yagami, the one leading up the special investigation for the heinous criminal serial murder case?" "That's right." "Who are you?" "Himura Shoko, from the 2nd Criminal Investigation Support Division." "Sure, I'll catch up with you." "I've found a clue to the culprit." "What kind of clue?" "First, could you take me to the investigation headquarters?" "I see..." "It could be that the reason she first approached you was to ascertain Kira's method of killing." "If so, her entire career history may be a lie." "It's clear that she's been planning this very scrupulously for some time." "I trusted her implicitly." "That was my mistake." "Dad..." "It can't be helped." "What do you mean?" "Saving lives is our first priority." "Let's go along with the notebook exchange." "It isn't that simple." "Even if I save a member of my family that way, what will happen if they get their hands on that killer notebook?" "It could result in more victims." "Chief..." "Near." "Sorry, but could you let me and my father decide this one?" "Of course." "I trust both Yagami-san and Light-san." "I'll go along with whatever you decide." "Thank you." "That damned woman." "Who the hell is she?" "It's been 30 minutes." "Yes?" "Have you made your decision?" "Give us the day and place to make the trade." "Thank you." "Then let's meet up tomorrow at noon." "I'll send you the place later via email." "Got it." "Damn it." "Doing just what she wants?" "Chief." "We don't have time." "Let's figure out a plan." "As a member of the police, I can't just hand over that killer notebook." "Let's think of a way to save my daughter and keep the notebook in our possession." "I hope this goes well..." "Himura Shoko" "But is there a way to manipulate Himura to get the Death Note back?" "Is this another fake name?" "It doesn't matter." "I'll use Mikami's shinigami eyes..." "No..." "This could be my chance!" "We meet again, Rem." "In other words, this is the real Death Note." "We're going to save Sayu-chan." "We're with you." "Dad, I'm going, too." "Sayu is my sister." "All right." "Let's go." "Thanks." "I'm going to use this kidnapping." "Take care." "Watari, please take care of this." "You will, won't you?" "Another willful request." "You remind me of a certain someone..." "If you're viewing this second video, it means the investigation is proceeding, right?" "Of course it is, L." "Near." "Kira is Yagami Light." "It took you this long?" "I've known that for a long time, L." "Expose Yagami Light." "I will." "The one who puts in the final piece might not be me." "It could be you, Near." "I will put in the final piece." "I'm going to recover the Death Note." "I'm going to expose you, Yagami Light." "I'm going to kill every one of you!" "Yagami Light." "Hand the Death Note over already." "I'll show you what happens to those who stand against Kira." "This is the last favor I'm doing you, as a father." "Don't do it!"
