So, I just watched episode 25 on Adult Swim. I've read the manga, and you'd have to be blind to not see it coming, but... it's still a powerful scene. So... Can we have an L solo thread? Because L really was alone.

Also because I don't feel like waiting 12 weeks to see his comeuppance.

If anyone has "L in the rain" because my god, you saw it last night. you saw him in the rain and after with the towle on his head. It was great
>> Anonymous
That episode was really sad. It drove the point home that poor L really felt like he was alone in the world. And the one person he would call a friend betrayed him since the beginning.

I seriously wanted to punch Light after that. Hard.

That part when they came out of the rain, was really gay. Maybe that's what friends do in Japan I guess, that shit don't fly over here.

Fuck, episode 25 had the most fanservice-y farservice ever. It was kind of ridiculous. I mean, how come the frolic in the rain and the foot rub got 5 times more screen time than L's death? It just doesn't seem right.
That being said, I love episode 25 and I love this thread.

The footwashing is blatant Christian symbolism. I mean, you don't get more obvious than that. Also, the episode is full of crosses. Martyrdom, forgiveness, sin, etc. I took it to mean L forgives and understands Light for the sociopathic bastard he is.

It's probably one of the only instances I've seen where an anime used religious symbols in a way that actually made any sense.

LOL. Word, Nyuggas!
Every Saturday night my b/f and I sit to watch DeathNote and during that scene my b/f was like "WHOA! This shit's GAY" I just laughed to myself and thought 'You haven't seen my "DeathNote Yaoi" folder!'
I went from incredibly turned on to incredibly depressed by the end of the episode. I knew he was gonna die and I still shed a tear. I'm still not over it.

It makes perfect sense when you know the story. L is Jesus. Light is Judas. Like, the day before Judas betrayed Jesus (subsequently getting him killed, like how Light did with Rem), Jesus washed his feet as a "washing away of sin" sort of thing, showing how he knew what was going to happen, but forgave Judas anyway.

So basically the scene suggests L knew fine well he was going to die and forgave Light. It was also an excuse for fan service. That massage was just unnecessary.

I don't much like the analogy anyway. I love L, but he's not 100% pure goodness. Compared to Light, maybe, but still. Also, I can't see L forgiving Light.

L's entire life was a tragedy.

First of all he's an orphan, God knows how that happened and how badly if effected him.
Second of all, he's sent to The Whammy's House. Now, I sure it's not like the evil orphanages often portrayed in fiction, but think about it. What kind of place leaves it's top four student with dead, hollow eyes. If you take into account the BB case, one also went insane and became a serial killer and another killed himself. I've got a feeling that whatever training they're put through, it's not the healthiest for young children, physically and psychologically.

Then, as he comes out of that less-than-desirable situation, he's thrown into being L. He rarely goes out, spends all his time working, he avoids, for the sake of his life, most contact with people and society, he has to constantly investigate often morbid crimes (image the amount of dead bodies he's seen), and finally, he dies - is KILLED - at the tender age of 26 and no one really cares.

Did he complain? No. Not once.

He never got to know love, or even friendship. He never got to know how good life can be.

STILL NOT OVER IT

You just brilliantly summed up why I care for this character so, so much. He's incredibly strong for having to endure that sort of life for as long as he did.

For those who can't read katakana (lol newfags). He's shouting "Watari", then, he remembers Watari's dead (it's from a doujinshi where L comes back to life in some way, can't remember how).
>> Anonymous

It's a doujinshi called "Pieta" by Balgus REC (also found in a compilation by them called "God Eye").

There's a scanlated version here: http://rapidshare.com/files/101326148/Pieta.rar.html

Are you impyling Jesus and Judas were gay for each other? An important part of that story is that Judas killed himself soon after because of his guilt, but Light does not show a shred of guilt for bringing about L death.
Also, this conversation is much too deep for 4chan.

No, I'm saying the peeps making the animu wanted to be all arty, but were also trying to be all fan-servicey at the same time. Attempting too much at once, the scene just ended up looking weird and OOC.
