What is Justice here?
Both L and Light have their own conception of “Justice”. Justice for Light is that criminals should die, and Justice for L is that people shouldn’t be killed and that Kira must be stopped. It’s a very different justice. Light’s ‘justice’ is idealistic, not realistic. Even if everyone feared a Kira, there would still be people doing bad things, and crimes. There are so many people out there, and people make mistakes. He himself becomes a hypocrite anyway, because he’s killing people for being murderers and criminals, while he himself is a mass-killer. L doesn’t want anyone to die, he values life. Just like the police chief (Light’s dad), etc, and other people in society, they all think Kira’s actions are evil… no matter if his motive was for his ideal of justice.

To the supporters of ‘Kira’:
You have to realise that we human beings, living in a society that has a sense of morality. We have already created a system to deal with criminals and catch crime (police etc). No matter how bad we think criminals are there is justice taking place everyday, under the judical system. Whatever system is put in place there are bound to be errors sometimes (guilty person let free under the judicial system, or ‘Kira’ killing innocent people, if for example, someone who was wrongly convicted).

Also, killing people is like letting them off their sentencing. Languishing in prison should be worse than death anyway, they have no freedom there, its boring, and they have basically no life. Letting them die is like not letting them learn a lesson or be truly punished for their crimes. Prison should be the right sentence for criminals, to keep the public safe, and to punish them.

L: he’s very thorough when he thinks of everything.

Light still thinks he’s better than everyone else, and that the deathnote wont bring him misfortune in any way. Everyone else already suggest that it something bad will happen, even ryuk suggests so .Light thinks he’s perfect and in control. he wont believe that anything bad can happen, and he wont consider any situations where he will put himself into danger or the bad possibilities, he thinks he can get out of anything and that his plan will succeed.

In anycase, i think that Light is just 17 and he’s very optimistic about things. Like where other people would fear and think about the consequences of the death note, he immediately thinks of doing something ‘constructive’ with it, he’s very idealistic
and whenever he hears someones ‘name’ he’s kinda always like heh heh e verythings going to plan, i can kill them now with the note as if everyone were suckers. L wasnt

L is just as smart as Light is, but they reason differently
Light goes for the most obvious way, like kill the bad guys, world will be a better place, he doesnt think of it in other ways. Also wheneve rthere are ‘obstructions’ to his plan, he only plans killing them. I think L is wiser and more intelligent, because he can think of why killer wants to do this, and then reasons that its immature, etc, and that he thinks of really interesting ways to investigate Light, almost like some chess moves or something that makes him look vulnerable, when he’s being backed up by alot of things
and then Light realises this
cos when L reveals himself to Light, it makes him much harder to kill actually, to kill without consequences, which is what Light has to work out
but he was initially surprised that this guy in his university was L and that he suddenly introduced himself this way
L is very good in gathering information psychologically etc
L becomes the aggressor in this situation as Light tries to avoid any traps and work out how to play it so that hes not the killer

Light only thinks of this in a positive way, like that the world would be a better place.
like basically everyone’s telling him he’s ‘evil’ for doing this u know
From L’s tv broadcast, to his father
to Ryuk saying he’ll be the only one with a ‘bad personality’ left
Nearly everyone else is saying a similar message but he doesnt get it. There are other people that support his actions, but mostly school kids and stuff . ‘kira is killing the bad guys etc’ i mean, if u kill murderers, and u are a murderer, doesnt that make u bad also

but what everyone else is saying that by doing so he is the one who is evil
its saying hes a hypocrite

He kills killers, but he himself is a killer

Because to kill someone takes another person
His defense is always that its for ‘justice’ but its a justice with no morality or not the same morality that the police, and people like L have one that cares about other people, and their lives, no matter if they are criminals or not.
His morality is that he acts like god so that these criminals will be too scared to do anything, yeah it somehow works, but he ended up killing alot more than criminals, innocent people also.

I know the big difference between L and Light now. L tries to, and succeeds in finding win-win situations. Light on the other hand, finds win-lose situations, for example, to realise his ideal, he has to kill ‘bad guys’, people obstructing him, and people who might find him. L sets up situations where no matter how Light tries to act or get out of, will give L clues towards a lead.

Secondly, Light kills to cover his steps, which L tries to use damage control, like to stop as many deaths as possible
