FUCK YOU!"

Hibisawa stop!

Freeze!

Go fuck yourself! PIGS!

HIBISAWA!

Stop right there!

"Wanted: Yûsuke Hibisawa"

Get away from me, assholes!

Don't do it! Let her go!

I'm gonna kill this bitch!!

YOU'RE SURROUNDED!!!

What's the matter?

Hibisawa!

"Foreign Ministry, Deputy Director: Katsuya Seta"

Any comments on the testimony sir?

Try to give an honest answer!

We just want the truth, sir!

-Criminals selling organs on the black market. -Did they pay you off?

I don't remember...

You were using the ODA as a cover for your dealings, weren't you, sir?

I don't know.

Look, get out of my way!

Did you know you're responsible for the deaths of innocent children?

Mr. Sata, we're waiting for a statement from you!

"The Municipal Court"

Please, follow me!

Did you want to apologize to the victim's family?!

Congressman, is your son really innocent?!

The verdict was not guilty!

It's over, and that's official!

"Another Criminal Dies"

"Mysterious Deaths"

"Series of Deaths"

"Heart Attack"

"Sudden Deaths"

Yet another criminal has died.

All of them suffered heart attacks.

It's hard to explain since none of them had a significant history of medical problems.

The question is, are these deaths linked in some way?

Police are continuing to investigate the events.

Hey!

What's going on?

"Killers Found Dead"

Following up on the recent unexplained deaths,

the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare announced at a press conference

that they have begun an investigation into whether the

deaths may have been the result of an unknown pathogen.

and 53 related deaths.

these deaths...

To date, the victims have either been criminals

or those merely suspected of committing a crime.

This is being given top priority.

Authorities confirm that this is now a worldwide

phenomenon and that all avenues are being pursued.

Criminals who thought they had escaped justice

are being struck down right in their tracks all over the world.

God has judged them and is sending the sinners to hell.

Angered by those who commit evil,

he passed the judgement.

Let the light shine down on us!

"Savior Kira"

Kira is so awesome.

Who is Kira? I mean, really?

You don't know?

He's our savior.

"Praise Kira"

"Please kill more criminals and make this a better world."

"The thought of them in fear makes me smile."

You know! Kira is nothing but a murderer.

"He's an angel of the Underworld."

"Criminals deserve to die."

"I want the lot dead."

Did you get it?

No, not yet.

"Trash to trash can, criminals to Kira"

"Kira is a devil. He's the one who should be punished!"

"No one bullies me anymore at school."

"Thanks to Kira."

Oh yeah! He's all over the internet.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he exists just because of what's been going on.

Seriously, definitely does exist.

So what?

They're just criminals, aren't they?

I don't think murder is an acceptable way to solve our problems.

But that doesn't mean we shouldn't kill criminals.

Would you mind killing my parents? Just kidding.

We interrupt this program for a breaking news update.

The armed suspect who has barricaded himself inside a

Tokyo Consumer Finance Company has just been identified.

His name is Hiromichi Imaizumi, age 45.

Police have provided us with the following information.

Apparently, he is a man heavily in debt.

Though all the facts are still unknown,

this could very well provide a motive for why he would commit armed robbery.

We now go to our reporter live on the scene.

"Hiromich Imaizumi"

We're live from Shinjuku.

Three employees are dead.

In the building behind me, the suspect still

has five more hostages under his control.

We can hear him shouting.

Five hours have passed since the holdup began,

and though everything is being done to ensure the hostages' safety...

I see people gathering towards the entrance and exiting.

The riot squad is rushing the building, and the suspect...

It seems he's still inside.

The hostages are being evacuated.

They all appear to be safe and unharmed.

We've just received shocking news.

Apparently, the suspect is dead.

According to eyewitness reports made by the employees

that were being held hostage in the building,

Ima Izumi suddenly clutched his chest and then collapsed in agony.

Another mysterious death.

Is she implying that...

I can't think of anything else.

It was Kira! He's the one who did it!

That's unbelievable!

I got him! I got him! I got him!

Down the middle!

Here we go!

Good shot! Good shot!

Here we go! Here we go! Here we go!

Ohhh.... man!!!

That was your fault!

Nice throw!

Crazy!

Thank you very much!

Lucky! That was a lucky shot!

Luck? Yeah.

The future superintendent making bets?

I'll buy you lunch.

Not with that dirty money you won't.

I worked hard for this money.

-I was planning on buying you lunch today. -Yeah? What for?

I saw the notice board...

the bar exam... congratulations are in order!

You're making me look bad.

I'm the one that wants to be a district attorney.

Just go at your own pace Shiori. I mean there's no rush.

But I just want to catch up with you soon... that's all

-I totally support Kira. -He's our anonymous Savior.

Yeah right

He ignores civil rights and the possibility of false charges.

I'm afraid I just don't approve of him.

Which is better, studying the law or Kira killing criminals?

Undoubtedly Kira.

I'm with Kira!

You know what? We should do our own research.

Even in our department, everyone's talking about Kira.

He looks like the god of justice to people.

I wouldn't call him a god. More arrogance than justice.

Is it arrogance?

No matter the crime, the legal system should be used.

You know, if I had his power... I just might do the same thing.

I don't think so.

You can change the world in your own white-light.

Isn't that the real reason you're studying law?

Unfortunately, the law can only do so much.

There are limits to everything.

One month ago, I hacked into the police database looking for answers.

I wanted to know what kind of people were committing crimes.

How they were serving their time and whether they were being adequately punished.

But instead, I saw the limits to the legal system I believed in.

What?

"wanted"

"Case Dropped"

"Unsolved"

For some reason, many of the worst criminals were never prosecuted.

The confidential data showed they would never be punished for their crimes.

"Takuo Shibuimaru"

"Case Dropped"

To prevent a general public outcry, we're being kept in the dark about it.

Is that really... possible?

I know. I couldn't believe it either.

That's why I needed to see for myself.

I heard you got away with murder.

That doesn't seem fair.

You know, when I snap, I don't know what's going on anymore.

And then...

I hear this voice from far away.

Voice?

What does it say?

It tells me to kill you!

Ahh, just kidding.

What the fuck?

You scared the shit out of me.

Did you guys hear?

The parents of the kid I killed, they were...

they were crying when the verdict was read.

My baby!

Hey! What are you looking at?

Huh? You a relative of the kid or something, huh?

It's coming back.

How it feels.

When the knife cuts deep into the flesh.

And when it finally sinks right into the heart.

What am I doing here in this place?

I don't remember!

No one's ever gonna put me behind bars.

Why did you do something so dangerous?

Please don't.

Shiori, do you still disapprove of Kira?

Tell me.

Do you really believe the law is going to punish them one day?

I won't tell her what happened next.

Even if I did, she'd never believe me.

Besides, there's no need to tell anyone.

"The Compendium of Laws"

The human whose name is written in this notebook shall die.

The trial for the murder of a female high school

student killed last October commenced this afternoon.

The alleged killer, Kaonuma, showed little remorse for the crime,

eliciting angry outbursts from the victim's family in the courtroom.

Tai Taeyama, a 17-year-old resident of

West Kamata, Matsumoto City, in Abeno Prefecture,

was allegedly kidnapped by Yosuke Kaonuma.

She was on her way to school when someone dragged her

into a public park restroom and stabbed her to death.

He has already admitted to sending the letter to the press,

confessing to the deed.

Taking this letter into consideration,

the police are presently investigating

whether other charges may be laid in the case.

All set?

Got your train pass?

Yep, I'm good.

Okay, see ya.

Ah, about time you got up.

College students are so lucky.

Be careful of weirdos out there.

Right.

Later.

Goodbye.

Oh, Light.

Hurry up and eat.

I'm cleaning up already.

Yeah, I will.

"A Sudden Death in Jail"

"Yosuke Kaonuma"

"YOSUKE KAONUMA"

Light? Aren't you having breakfast?

This note will not take effect unless the writer has the

person's face in their mind when writing his or her name.

Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.

"TAKUO SHIBUIMARU"

If the cause of death is written within 40 seconds

of writing the person's name, it will happen.

But, if the cause of death is not specified,

the person will simply die of a heart attack.

Somebody help!

Takuo!

Takuo, wake up!

Takuo!

Come on!

Takuo!

Takuo!

Takuo, come on!

Hey!

Takuo!

Takuo!

Takuo!

Takuo!

Takuo!

Takuo!

What?

What's happening?

Oh shit no!

You've taken quite a liking to it.

What's wrong?

Do you doubt what you're seeing with your own eyes?

Oh, a Shinigami pays me a visit.

I'm the one who dropped that notebook you're holding.

Did you come here to take it back from me?

The moment you touched it, you became the notebook's sole owner.

Do I have to trade for it?

Are you going to take my life now?

I won't do anything to you.

If you don't want it, just pass it on to someone else.

In which case, I will erase all memory of the Death Note from your mind.

You're sure there isn't a price for this?

The only fee would be the emotions the user experiences.

Agony and fear.

But... that might not bother you.

I can see you.

Can other people see you too?

Only those who touch the Death Note have the ability to see me.

Tell me your name.

Is that curiosity I sense?

You can call me Ryûk.

Ryûk.

FOUR MONTHS LATER THE METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT

It's like trying to catch smoke.

Nothing about this case makes sense.

Sure, the victims are all criminals, but they're from all over the world.

We don't see any connection whatsoever.

Well, Chief, it seems unlikely, but maybe

this was caused by some kind of unknown virus.

Are you implying... that we should throw this over to the Ministry of Health?

My gut tells me...

that we're dealing with mass murder.

I won't allow it.

killing criminals like this.

Let's nail the bastard.

We're with you on this one, Chief.

No matter what happens.

I have to report this.

The Commissioner is waiting.

THE NATIONAL POLICE AGENCY

Excuse me.

Matsubara.

When did you get back?

Uh, yesterday.

The ICPO have come to the conclusion that the culprit is in Japan.

And how did they come to that conclusion?

The first suspicious death seemed to have happened in this region.

From that data, L concluded that the murderer is in Japan.

L?

Oh, you mean him?

The mysterious detective who solves cases all

over the world, seemingly unsolvable cases.

We called him in.

He's our only hope.

Watari.

Our only means of communicating with L...

is through him.

Gentlemen, I believe this is a good time to let you listen to L's message.

Greetings, members of the N.P.A.

I am L.

The unexplained deaths of criminals all over the world are

most likely being caused by a single, very intelligent individual.

A genius who can only be described as a mass murderer.

These are figures depicting mortality rates

during last year's Micrwa virus outbreak in Asia.

The data on the deceased has been further broken

down into sex, age, nationality, and criminal record.

This is a distribution chart.

It indicates that random natural events create a

gentle, graduated slope when graphed accordingly.

And here, we have a chart of the recent mysterious mortalities.

Now I see.

So you're saying these deaths are murders and not natural occurrences.

Yes.

For now, I will call the murderer Kira.

Yes, but...

this information doesn't necessarily...

mean we're dealing with a lone killer here.

The X-axis indicates number of people involved in a crime.

The Y-axis shows the success rate of a crime.

Crimes in which many people are involved are far less successful.

Let's examine this particular case.

We have multiple murders occurring simultaneously all over the world.

If it is a group crime, the killer would have to have at least...

80 accomplices scattered around the globe.

The rate of success for a crime with 80 accomplices is very low.

Virtually zero.

This leads me to the conclusion that one individual is committing all the murders.

But unless you can explain...

how he can kill people all over the world simultaneously...

your theory won't work.

With direct confrontation, I will successfully draw Kira out...

thus revealing how he has been committing these murders.

What's your plan?

That is for later.

You won't be disappointed.

I know that look.

You don't agree with him.

It's not a matter of agreeing.

When you come right down to it, we don't have a choice.

I'm ordering a full investigation.

Yagami... you will lead the task force.

Yes.

"Kira"

Look here, Ryûk.

Just by typing in the word Kira, over 50,000 links pop up.

The world is sensing the presence of someone who is passing righteous judgement.

That someone is me.

Kira.

Looks like you're really enjoying this light.

Everyone knows that the bad guys are being erased.

Even if no one is talking about it.

The good are rejoicing and encouraging Kira in their hearts... while the wicked...

are shaking with fear.

History is about to change.

With the Death Note in my possession, I can create an ideal world.

The future has been entrusted to my hands.

Ah, how very heroic.

I've subscribed to a website that updates me on the latest Kira news.

A special live broadcast.

We interrupt this program to bring you a special live broadcast...

airing simultaneously...

to all nations of the world by the ICPO.

The International Criminal Police Organization.

My name is Lind L. Taylor.

Otherwise known as L.

I've been asked by the ICPO...

to assist with the investigation of the serial murderer.

To begin, I'd like to say that these are the most atrocious crimes...

that have ever been committed.

The mastermind behind them, known as Kira... has an extraordinary ego...

and is himself a hypocritical, vile, and immature criminal.

Immature? You think so?

And I, L, assure you that Kira will be arrested at all costs.

Kira, I can easily guess what you're thinking.

You're exactly like a child.

You are a criminal that must not be allowed to exist in this world.

Kira, you are far lower than those criminals you have no right to judge.

I feel the same way about you.

And I'll show the whole world...

now.

However, I know many people support Kira.

It is because he is judging all those criminals

who have escaped punishment up until now.

I wish I could have played this game a little longer with you...

L.

But if we allow people to be judged apart from the ruling law...

then this civilized world born out of a long and terrible history...

will be reduced to brutality and violence.

40 seconds.

Oh, is he all right?

Oh, no, oh, no!

Hey, somebody's got to help him!

Somebody's got to help him!

Let's get him out of here! Get him out! Come on!

Let's get him out.

Get him out. Get him out.

Set him down. Right there.

I'm surprised.

Apparently, you can kill people without lifting a finger.

Listen carefully, Kira.

The man you just killed was an inmate on death row.

The police arrested him in absolute secrecy...

so you wouldn't have heard of him from TV or the Internet.

As a plea bargain, he agreed to pretend he was me.

The real L is still alive.

Come on. Try to kill me now.

It looks like there are some people you can't kill.

I should let you know... I obtained a

critical piece of information... just now.

You are in Japan.

In the Kanto region.

Although we announced this as a worldwide broadcast...

we're actually only on the air in the Kanto region.

The first reported casualties were Japanese criminals...

so I expected you to be somewhere nearby.

But now... we know where you are.

Nice one!

This is no game.

Watch your mouth.

Sorry, sir.

The net being cast by the investigative task force is closing in on you.

Kira...

there's no doubt we are going to catch you.

All of your secrets will be revealed...

and I will see to it that you are sentenced to death.

You'll sentence me to death?

I am Justice.

Justice...

I am Justice.

I'm a savior, the god who will liberate people from evil.

And anyone who opposes me...

they are the evil ones.

Killing in the name of Justice?

Humans are so much fun.

This will be good.

l've gotta see who wins.

Alright then.

Chief...

it's definitely confirmed.

The fake L from the broadcast...

really did die.

He found Kira's general location.

This L is pretty impressive.

Sacrificing criminals' lives for an investigation?

In my mind, it makes us no better than this Kira, really.

"L vs Kira"

"Convict Killed On Air"

"Kira, the Killer"

"A Full investigation"

"Detective L vs Kira"

"Heart Attack, Lind L. Tailor"

"Kira Kills Convict"

At first l thought it was like "Candid Camera" or something, but it was real!

Sayu, what do you think of Kira?

I don't agree with him... that's why we have the police.

And courts.

What is it?

Last night. Did you see the broadcast?

Oh, yeah, that.

Come on in.

Sayu!

I still can't believe a person died on live TV.

They used a convicts life as bait.

Pretty under-handed actually.

So, right? I guess you still support Kira then?

He's better than this L anyway.

Kira is a murderer. This isn't your kind of justice.

Kira's actions are suppressing criminal activities.

He's just using fear to hold us down.

Try to think of this as a revolution.

Revolutions have been known to betray us.

This one's a real fighter.

Shut up.

What?

Nothing.

Hey, let's go out somewhere.

Do you want to do what they're doing?

Why not?

I can't.

Not with so many people around.

Not unless it was for some really important occasion.

What if she found out that you were Kira?

What would that girl do then?

It's okay.

One of these days, Shiori's gonna understand.

Hello, L. The task force is ready to make its report.

Please begin.

As requested by L, this is a chart indicating each of the victims' time of death.

l don't see anything up there that looks particularly special.

Have you ever heard of the Law of Great Numbers?

Law of Great Numbers?

lt's a theorem that Bernoulli devised in the year 1713...

through his observations of nature.

-It states that even... -Can L, see all this?

There's a direct link-up to L's computer.

Right.

I will take this seemingly random data and separate it into seven sections.

Is L doing that?

Yeah, I guess.

Right.

What is that?

I know that shape. It looks familiar.

Hey, a timetable!

A college student's schedule!

Mondays run from noon till evening.

Tuesdays are an early start.

Hmm.

There are no murders during his classes.

Our killer is a hardworking student.

You've sure been in a good mood lately.

Huh? Not really.

Look, you promised to tell me if anything was happening between you and Shiori.

I didn't say anything like that.

Wait, what's going on? I'm curious too.

Oh, Dad's home.

Hey, not so fast! You're not getting away from me!

Hi, Dad.

Oh, welcome home.

Dad, guess what? Light and Shiori are gonna be...There's nothing to tell him.

Huh? What about light? Something up?

There. After a hard day's work.

What a day. I never thought it would end.

I knew you'd be exhausted, Dad.

Meaning what?

You're in charge of the Kira case, aren't you?

Why do you say that?

I've never seen you so stressed before.

I want to help you with this case.

Listen.

I know you have a knack for deduction, and you've helped us before in the past.

You do have a keen intellect.

I'm proud of you. Very proud.

And I'm proud to be his sister.

Yeah, that's right.

But this time it's a very different story.

We're dealing with a dangerous and unstable killer.

This guy is pure evil.

And he can kill people seemingly effortlessly.

I can't justify involving you.

-But if I could help... -No, Light.

You can't. This is my case.

Don't worry. The cases you'll be solving

are waiting for you five or ten years from now.

For now, you'll have to wait. So save your strength for then.

No need to rush.

I understand, Dad.

I'm gonna go study... for ten years from now.

Hey, Dad?

Mm-hmm?

I just want you to know that if anything happened to you, I'd

make sure that this Kira would pay for his crimes with his life.

Who would have thought that your father would be put in charge of the Kira case?

Is that the police database?

It's a progress report on the investigation. Dated today.

Kira's a university student. They figured that out.

Twenty-four criminals dead in a single day?

At a rate of... one per hour.

Uh, what does it mean?

Maybe our student theory is completely off-base.

That is not what Kira is telling us.

Okay. Then what?

He is telling us that he can manipulate the time of death.

He can manipulate...

the time of death?

And one other thing...

Somehow, our investigative findings are being leaked to Kira.

It was only three days ago we determined that he was a university student.

And then the next day, the patterns of death changed.

Which means that Kira...

He's telling us that he can see what we see. In fact, he could even be among us.

Hey, Ryûk.

How many revolutions have afternoons that are this peaceful?

The overall crime rate has dropped dramatically.

And it's all thanks to Kira.

Every day we're getting closer to a completely crime-free world.

Who would have ever imagined such a future was possible?

What's the matter, Ryûk?

No apples today?

Don't worry, there's no one around.

Looks like I'm being followed.

Did you know?

Uh-huh. I noticed two days ago.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because I'm not on your side, Light. Nor am I on L's.

Do you think it's the police?

No. It's still too soon for them to have tracked me down.

So? Who can it be?

Hey, Light.

A Shinigami's lifespan grows when we take a human's life.

What does that mean?

Imagine someone's name is written in the Death Note.

They die prematurely. The remaining years...

So you get to add the years they were

supposed to live to your lifespan. Is that right?

How do you think Shinigami know all those names?

You see them?

Yes. I can see your name and your lifespan.

You can see how long I'm going to live and the name of the guy who's following me.

Would you like to see through a Shinigami's eyes?

Oh, now I get it. And... what would I owe you?

Half of the years remaining in your lifespan.

Out of the question. Then how will you ever get his name?

After writing the cause of death, details of the death

should be written in the next six minutes and forty seconds.

Chief, take a look at these. Three more died in prison.

While in his cell, Shirami sliced open

his fingers and drew a pentagram on the wall.

Yadanaka left a suicide note written only in hiragana and tobei.

He escaped from his cell, ran thirty meters down the hall to

a staff washroom, where he subsequently died of a heart attack.

Mr. Yagami. This time, please don't tell the press anything

other than the fact the victims all died of heart attacks.

The reason?

Kira seems to be manipulating these deaths in order to test something.

[Television] - The water main leak is thought to have been caused by an

accidental breakage in the pipe at a nearby construction site.

A site supervisor was questioned regarding this leakage, but declined comment.

The municipal council has voiced their concern over this...

Look at that. They weren't in the press release.

But all the details of the criminals' deaths are recorded right here.

Several offices had to be evacuated...

I didn't think the instructions I wrote in

the death note would be carried out so precisely.

What a surprise.

This afternoon at 2.40 p.m. in Fujisawa City of Kanagawa Prefecture,

three armed men stormed the Miyamai branch of the Teikai Bank.

Three employees were killed.

The men disappeared with 2.5 million yen.

Two of the suspects were quickly apprehended as a result of

emergency police deployment, but one of the men eluded capture.

Still at large is Kiichirô Osoreda, age 36.

He has a history of assault and drug charges.

The three employees who were killed...

Ryûk.

Huh?

Who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

You told me that anyone who touches the death note will be able to see you.

So what if I did?

The company's management was questioned

if appropriate security measures were taken.

But no comment was made.

The spokesman eventually responded by saying that the measures of the

company had in place were up to standard and adequate for the risk involved.

He was quoted as saying...

The bus is moving. Please take your seats.

Taking the bus is a nice change of pace...

Actually, someone's been following me around for the past 3 days...

Tell me...why are you following me?

You from a private agency?

Who hired you?

I'm Sorry. What are you talking about?

What's going on Light?

Alright... you want to keep breathing? You do as I say.

Just shut up! Stay in your seats!

Light.

Call up your dispatch.

This is Sasaki on bus 124.

I'm taking the bus!

Give me 100 million yen or I start killing hostages!

"I’ll find a chance and grab him."

No, don't. It's risky.

Leave this to me. Got it?

No. How do I know I can trust you?

I'm the son of a policeman.

Let go!

Look, just wait.

Stay away from him. I'm keeping you safe.

I know you've been following me.

How can I be sure you're not this guy's accomplice?

Accomplice?

They want us to think there's only one.

But there's usually a second guy who acts as a kind of backup.

Alright...

The FBI.

His name... His name is...

Raye Iwamatsu.

Hey!

What are you up to?

You've got some balls.

You're gonna be a hero, kid. Huh?

Whoa! Son of a bitch!

What the hell is that thing?

Looks like you can see me.

Stop fucking with me!

Where'd you come from?

Oh, I see. That paper's torn from the death note.

Fucker!

Get down!

Nice try asshole...

But I'm a shinigami.

That thing's not gonna kill me.

Stop!

Stop the damn bus!

Okay!

Kiichiro Osoreda... accidental death.

On March 29th, 2006...

At 10:12 am, he boards the Kyonan bus at the fifth bus stop in Okukawa District.

Which is heading back to the bus garage at the time

He is carrying a gun with eight bullets in the clip.

He makes an attempt to steal the profits from the Kyonin-Okukawa line.

Upon seeing a terrifying apparition from

another world, he fires his weapon eight times.

Realizing he's out of bullets, he flees the bus in a blind panic.

Hey, wait!

Look, if you've got something you want to

know, just come and ask me straight to my face.

I'm not gonna run or hide.

Your mom said she's on her way.

And... the hijacker?

Died instantly. Serves him right.

The police are all over the crime scene.

We should go.

It's okay. The police already know about everything that happened.

I told them.

Right now, you just take it easy and get some rest.

Promise me you'll never do something like that again.

If something were to happen to you, Light, I don't know what I'd do.

Shiori...

[Knock, knock]

Welcome back!

Hey hun.

What's wrong? Something happen?

No, nothing's wrong.

This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.

She shall be called woman because she was taken out of man.

Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave unto his wife.

And they shall be one flesh.

You know that one?

Genesis 2:23.

Hey, when did you say you'd scheduled us to meet with the priest again?

-Saturday. Is that okay? -Yeah, yeah.

Raye, I know you're after Kira.

You've got to be careful.

And who used to go on the most dangerous of missions?

For the famous L?

You changed me for the better.

This is the note the latest victim left.

Hmm...

Hmm...

L...

Do you know...

Gods of death...

love...

I know! They love apples!

Sorry.

Hmm...

I doubt that the FBI would have only one agent on this case.

Because he suspects Kira is involved with someone on the task force.

L has asked the FBI to secretly follow all the police.

If that's the case...

he's not the only agent here in Japan.

Killing him would make me an automatic suspect.

If I kill him...

I'll just have to get rid of the other agents at the exact same time.

Hey, Light.

The FBI agents aren't criminals.

You're gonna kill them anyway.

"Minami-Aoyama Catholic Church"

Raye.

Naomi.

I'm sorry.

I got called in.

I'll join you later.

But the priest went out of his way to make time.

Try and explain.

But...

"Raye lwamatsu. l am Kira. Use the transceiver inside."

"l will talk to you directly."

Hello. I'm Kira.

I am watching your every move.

Continue facing forward while you're on the train.

Don't forget that I can kill you at any time.

How do I know... you're really Kira?

I'll give you a demonstration.

Do you see the man sitting next to you?

His name is Taruhito Ozaki, and two years

ago he was arrested on multiple rape charges.

But because the victims were afraid that he would come

after them, no one would take a stand against him.

The police couldn't charge him for lack of evidence.

That alone makes him deserving of punishment.

Taruhito Ozaki will sit in the priority seating

section of the train in the rear corner.

As the train passes Akasakabashi Station, he will

suddenly feel chest pains and will have a heart attack.

He'll die looking like he's fallen asleep.

Now just stay calm.

Don't make the passengers suspicious.

Check to make sure he's dead.

Then move the body so it seems like he's sleeping.

Well... Do you believe that I'm the real Kira now?

You took someone's life... just to prove that?

It's time to answer my questions, the FBI agents in Japan.

Tell me how many of them are there and how are they organized?

If you refuse to tell me, I will begin killing these passengers one by one.

Four teams. Eleven people, plus myself.

Do you know the names and faces of all the members of these teams?

I don't.

Listen to me. I'm telling you the truth.

Fine, then what about the identity of the superior leading the team?

Surely you know that much.

Yes.

You'll find five pieces of paper in that envelope.

There's a blank cut into one of the pages?

Write your leader's name down in the space provided.

Don't make any mistakes.

Trust me, if you try to write down a fake name...

I'll know immediately.

So don't even think about it...

Now, turn on your laptop.

Your superior is going to email you the

identities of the 12 agents working on the case.

"Free WiFi Access Available"

I've got the email.

You can open it.

Now, carefully examine the names and faces of the agents in the attachment.

Write their names down clearly and accurately in the spaces provided on the remaining pieces of paper.

Even if you do not actually possess the Death Note, the effect will be the

same if you can recognize the person and his or her name to place in the blank.

I'm done.

Now put the pages back into the envelope, then place it on the luggage rack.

You're going to stay on the train for a little while longer.

You can exit at Shinagawa Park Station.

When you get off the train, leave the train...

leave the transmitter behind.

Raye.

Naomi!

Raye!

Raye?

Raye!

No!

Raye!

Raye!

Raye Iwamatsu.

Heart attack.

He cancels all plans and heads for the Kanjo subway line at Akasakabashi Station.

He boards the 10:40 AM train through the rear door of the

4th car... and picks up the manila envelope in front of him.

He dies three seconds after exiting the train.

Five in Tokyo, three in Kanagawa, and two each in Saitama and Chiba.

They all died of heart attacks.

Also...

Their commanding agent died in Washington at almost

exactly the same moment that the rest of them fell.

They were all FBI agents?

They were under instructions from L to secretly follow

and investigate members of the Japanese Task Force.

L ordered this? Did you know about it?

It was a mystery to me.

"A Report on FBI Activities"

All the FBI agents that were investigating the Kira case have been killed.

They all suffered heart attacks.

From this, we can conclude that Kira is utterly

ruthless and he is killing more than just criminals.

It is possible that all of us here may be targeted by him.

All of you should take a moment and think about your families and those you love.

If you so desire it, you are free to leave the Task Force.

I guarantee that you will not be punished or suffer a demotion for leaving.

But I want those who decide to stay to be fully

aware that they might have to sacrifice... everything.

Finally, I thank those who have been fighting with us.

That is all.

There are only six of us left, sir.

No, Watari and I are still with you.

I have faith in people who have a strong sense

of justice and you all possess this trait.

L, I'm sorry, but it's getting hard to trust you.

You hide your face from us, giving orders from a safe hiding place.

I can't trust someone who acts like that.

We're going to hunt down Kira, but we're going to do it our way.

He's right.

To be very honest, I can't trust anyone who behaves like you.

I can't support the deceitful way you've been conducting this investigation.

However, in order to catch Kira, your cooperation is desperately needed.

If you want to work with us and you're sincere about wanting to catch him,

then perhaps you should show your face.

And then we can fight together.

I understand.

Watari!

It will be my pleasure to take you to L.

Nice to meet you. I'm L.

My name is Yagami.

Ukita Aizawa.

Mogi.

Sanami.

Matsuda.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Hey, what the hell?

Matsuda!

If I happened to be Kira, you'd all be dead by now.

And what does that mean?

From what we know so far, in order to kill his targets,

Kira needs to know their names and faces.

Therefore, in the future, I suggest you do not give out your real names.

As for me, you should call me Ryûzaki from now on.

All right, then.

And one other thing.

I believe Kira can control one's actions.

The strange suicide notes written in jail,

or anyone who acted abnormally, were probably Kira's experiments.

Experiments?

Before he killed all those FBI agents,

I think he ran tests on how well he could control people.

After all, he sent me a message hidden in those suicide notes.

You're saying that Kira wrote those as well?

Consider the fact that eight days passed

between the suicides and the killing of the agents.

He likely made contact with one of the FBI agents in that time,

controlled him in some way,

and acquired the agents' files.

Kira has to be a police officer

or somebody who was trailed by the FBI in Japan before the experiment.

That is correct.

You know what?

This narrows it down a lot.

Yeah.

Kira's conduct and speech indicates he is immature

and that he hates to lose.

He's just like me.

Till now,

I have been losing this battle, I know.

But I am going to win the war.

Let's grasp this victory together.

Ryûzaki.

This is a serious investigation.

It's no game.

But the final result is the same.

"Busjacker Killed in Accident"

"11 a. m. Kyonan Bus"

As requested, this is everything.

These are the security camera tapes of the agents when they died.

Thank you for your trouble.

Here.

This one.

And this one.

And this one.

And this one, too.

Hey.

Okay.

Right.

This is him.

Oh, yeah.

He was sitting at the back.

I remember him.

He was arguing with a young man sitting in front of him

just before the hijacker got on.

Do you remember what this young man looked like?

Good-looking guy, actually. Not that I'm into guys.

And he was completely fearless.

He had a gun stuck right in his face,

didn't even blink an eye.

Did the police question him about that?

That's strange... But he disappeared during all the chaos.

I guess... he didn't want to get involved at all, like him.

Here.

You see this?

You already have a list of suspects?

Yes.

Who's on it?

The deputy director and the chief's families.

Tell me.

What's your reasoning?

This is the footage of Agent Raye lwamatsu's death,

as you can see, even as he is dying he is clearly pointing in to the train.

Someone was on the train?

Presumably Kira.

Who's that?

Raye's fiancé.

She is a talented former FBI agent.

In the past she's done some work for me.

She's very perceptive. She must have sensed something

and was following Raye just in time to see him die.

If that's the case, let's talk to her immediately.

She's vanished. She disappeared after Raye's death.

It seems likely that whoever he was following is our suspect, Kira.

And you're saying he was following one of our family members?

Yes, there's a probability of between one and three percent for each one of you.

You're going to interrogate us?

No. I'm going to go directly into your homes...

and have hidden cameras and bugs set up to monitor your families.

That's illegal! We don't do things that way in Japan!

If this gets out, they'll have our heads on a plate!

I was under the impression that you knew the risk you were taking.

Okay. Then do it.

No, Chief!

But on the condition that you do it so thoroughly that there is no room for doubt.

Chief! We're talking about your wife and daughter here.

Yes, I know that.

But if we don't take this step, we'll never clear our names.

There's no point in dragging this out unnecessarily.

We'll put them under surveillance for about seven days.

Listen. It's the Chief's family.

Can't we at least let him run the surveillance?

All right, then.

Mr. Yagumi and I will watch his family in his house.

The rest of you take turns and watch everything in Mr. Kitamura's house.

This guy...

You recognize him?

Yeah. He was following Light.

Did something happen to him?

He died.

He was investigating Kira.

And he was killed.

Hey, Light.

Why are you scheduling all those deaths for the weeks ahead?

It's to throw off suspicion.

In case something happens.

Like if I'm hospitalized or somehow tied up.

You think of everything.

Hi, everyone.

Welcome to the first episode of my new program, Misamisa's Happy Sweets.

And what special dish am I making for my very first show? Here we go.

Somebody eyeing your man.

Make him fat with croissant pudding.

Mm-hmm! Really good!

In love? Like him more?

-What's up? -You gotta use every trick you've got.

Nothing.

If a rival's making moves on your man, bake something delicious and calorific for them.

You can fatten your love rival by as much as five kilos.

I was thinking about this the other day.

And you wanna know who my rival is?

That's right. It's the teen idol, Ayo Tsuka.

So that's why I came up with this plan to help her pack on the pounds.

I'm such a little devil.

And the croissant puddings are finished.

For all you rivals, pig out!

Fantastic!

Okay. Somebody who you admire?

Put down Kira.

What? You're a follower of Kira, too?

There's just something that's so cool about being a silent executioner.

Huh! All the kids these days say exactly the same thing.

As a matter of fact, Kira's my savior.

Could you define savior?

Misa! I told you not to talk about Kira.

What?

Why can't I?

Our sponsors are pretty sensitive.

Make sure that comment's off the record.

Uh, sure.

You're so controlling.

Hmm.

So does that mean all personal questions are off limits?

No.

Just the ones about that particular subject.

But Kira's the hottest topic out there right now.

Big thanks, everyone!

See you all tomorrow!

Hey, good show.

Hey Light.

Light. This is Shoko Maki.

She has a few questions. Stuff she'd like to ask you.

Nice to meet you.

Hello.

I'm writing an article on the Kira case.

I hear that you met Raye Iwamatsu.

Remember?

The man from the bus who was with the FBI?

Oh, yeah.

He was investigating the case when he was killed by Kira.

Oh, I didn't know that.

You didn't?

But... all Light knew was that someone was following him.

Right... Because he suspected that you were Kira.

And that's why you think I killed him?

Is that what you're saying?

People die once Kira finds out their name.

That's why you used the bus hijacking.

To find out Raye's full name.

This is just ridiculous.

Tell me, did Raye die right after I confronted him?

Three days after.

Call me naive, but if I were Kira...

And if I learned his name...

Why didn't I kill him right away?

There's no way Light can be Kira.

You're just...

I've had enough of your rudeness.

I'm going to write down what you're saying.

In case I decide to sue you later.

There were other FBI agents on the case.

Killing Raye would have made you the prime suspect.

You needed to get the other agents first.

That's why you didn't kill him right away.

So? Sound right?

All of the agents died?

There was nothing about this in the news.

It was a top secret case.

You're making all of this up.

I'm sorry, Light. I was wrong about her.

On the subway...

Somehow you forced Raye into giving you all the names of the agents.

Then you killed them.

Shiori. This is a joke. Let's go.

Light Yagami.

Don't think you're going to kill me.

The name I gave you was an alias.

Haven't you had enough?

Raye Iwamatsu was my fiancé.

I'm making it my personal mission to find this Kira.

And see that he pays.

What was that?

Something's wrong with her.

An alias, huh?

You've got another one.

Someone's following you.

Shinigami eyes... Would be useful.

You know, I think you're in deep shit, Light.

The people who set up the cameras told me that Light checks for signs of entry after.

And he's been out for a while.

Other than that we found nothing suspicious or unusual in his room.

All of these cameras?

Just in Light's room?

His personality.

His I.Q.

his lifestyle, taking these factors into consideration,

Light fits Kira's profile more than anyone else.

I still say this is a waste of time.

We must pursue all avenues, even if the possibility is only 1%.

Without due diligence, we will never be able to corner Kira.

Hey Light, talk to me! No one's watching us!

Give me an apple. Hey, I said give me an apple!

I just want an apple!

Apples?

What's wrong?

L is trying his best to get evidence on me.

Huh?

There's something different about the house.

Someone's been in my room.

There are probably cameras and microphones hidden all over the house.

Hey Light, maybe you underestimated L.

As long as I'm being watched, you can't eat apples in my room.

What?!!!

Let's look for cameras, see if there's a blind spot.

When he's in his room, all he does is study.

A son you can be proud of.

Yes, well, he wants to join the police force.

So what will it take for my son's name to be cleared?

If Kira makes a move while we continue to watch Light,

then I suppose we'll have to say he's in the clear.

Are you saying we're waiting for a murder?

That would seem to be the case.

Tokabob?

DAY THREE

Light! Dinner's ready!

I'm taking a break.

Chief, you should really rest.

You haven't slept at all in three days.

How could I go to sleep... when my family is under suspicion?

Yes?

I understand.

We've confirmed five deaths.

Three of the targets were fugitives who were at large.

The last two were on death row.

Is that so?

Let's not celebrate just yet.

Kira has the ability to designate time.

Do you remember?

We won't know for sure what's going on until... a fresh crime appears on the news.

-Let's eat. -I'm starving!

DAY FIVE

DAY SEVEN

Mom, aren't you getting worried?

-Hmm? -Dad hasn't been home for a whole week.

I'm used to it.

Dad works hard, Sayu.

You should learn from it.

All right.

What?

Eating chips right after dinner? You pig.

It's all right.

I'm following Dad's example.

I'm going to be studying till dawn.

Thanks, Mom.

Wow.

The trading of the company closed with a

strong surge and a recovery of over $10,800.

Staying with commodities, this morning the price

of crude oil dropped to just below $60 per barrel.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are receiving some late-breaking news here.

It concerns the shocking kidnapping of a five-year-old girl in Edogawa City.

We have word that a suspect has been arrested.

The man allegedly responsible for kidnapping five-year-old

Kasumi Miyuchizawa is Toru Kashimayama, age 29.

The young girl's body was found hidden under the floor of his apartment.

Kasumi was last seen playing in a park near

her home in Edogawa on the 28th of last month

when neighborhood children reported seeing her

get into a red car driven by a strange man.

Later, the suspect made several calls to the Miyuchizawa residence demanding a ransom...

He doesn't seem to be watching the news.

...set up a response team at the girl's house

and waited for news concerning her release.

It was at the home that the suspect, Kashimayama, was

apprehended by officers of the Funobori Police Department.

Reports indicate that he is not cooperating with the police.

Something seems to have happened at the scene of the arrest.

Let's take a look. Mr. Murai...

Live from Funobori.

We have confirmation.

Kashimayama has just died.

According to the information provided to us,

the Funobori Police Department had the suspect in custody.

He was being questioned when he suffered a massive

heart attack and died in the interrogation room.

Mr. Murai. Mr. Murai.

Yes?

Do you suspect Kira to be behind this death?

The official cause of death is still under debate, but

it seems likely that this was a Kira-related murder.

Clearly, this is the most recent Kira crime.

But this is great. It means Light couldn't have done it.

The police are adamant that violence is not used to raise...

Ryûzaki. Isn't this enough?

-and that his death is due solely to a... -Ryûzaki!

...beyond their control.

"TORU KASHlMAYAMA"

This proves that both families are innocent. Isn't that right?

Ryûzaki...

Do you have any further doubts now?

Watari...

Would you please remove all surveillance?

from both of the households?

Yes, understood.

This is great news, isn't it, Chief?

We'll have to start over.

Light! The cameras are all gone now! All of them!

There's nothing like eating a juicy apple away from prying eyes.

But tell me, Light. What if your sister took the chips?

You would have been really screwed.

I'm the only one who eats consomme-flavored chips in this house.

L... Naomi Misora is on the line.

It's been a long time.

L.

In the next little while, I will prove to you that Light Yagami is Kira.

By risking my life.

"Shiori"

Hey, what's up?

Can we meet?

Now?

Are you free?

Sure. I was just thinking about you.

I'm at the art gallery.

Okay, I'll be there. Just give me half an hour.

Hey, Light.

Yeah, what is it?

Shiori?

We are now connected to the cameras in the art gallery.

Show me the feed, please.

Right.

I'm at the entrance now.

Come inside. I'll be standing in front of the Exuzo Kenak's painting.

"Masks and Gods of Death".

OK

I heard you found out how Kira kills people.

Ryûzaki, what's going on here?

That's Light.

It would seem that... Light is Kira.

You bastard. You still suspect my son?

Shiori!

Light, no!

I'm so sorry.

Light Yagami!

The only way you can save her life...

is by confessing.

Confess that you killed Raye.

And that you are really Kira.

-Go and call back up -Right!

You've got it all wrong. I swear I'm not Kira.

If you keep lying like that...

I'm gonna kill her.

Hold on!

Look, even if I was Kira, Shiori's innocent.

If you want to kill someone, kill me!

I'm gonna teach you what it's like to lose a loved one.

That's what pain is.

No, don't do it!

Please, don't hurt Shiori.

Light.

Such a pathetic little person.

Being Kira and all, you can't even kill me.

You're reduced to crying and begging for your girlfriend's life.

Please, I already told you I'm not Kira!

If you don't have a person's name, then you can't kill them.

I'm gonna tell you my real name.

Naomi Misora.

Misora is written South and Sky.

Naomi's just plain katakana.

Well...

Now that you know my name...

I want you to kill me!

Naomi Misora.

The backup?

They should be showing up any second now.

No, don't.

Keep them back just a little bit longer.

But why?

It's just getting to the good part.

What the hell?

This isn't a show.

You want to save your girlfriend, don't you?

Then go ahead and kill me.

Like you killed Rei.

Like all the criminals you've executed.

Do it without laying a hand on me.

Go ahead and kill me now!

I keep telling you, I'm not Kira!

Shiori!

Shiori...

Shiori...

Shiori...

This can't be...

This can't be happening...

Shiori...

Shiori...

Come on, Shiori...Shiori...

Light.

Shiori...

We just kissed.

In public.

Shiori...

Shiori...

Shiori...

Why did this have to happen?

Why did you have to shoot her?

Tell me why?

Shiori...

Shiori...

No, don't!

This was... a miscalculation on her part.

Naomi Misura's miscalculation was that I saw her that day on the subway.

And she shouldn't have told me that she was Raye's fiancé.

Another miscalculation.

Nobody uses a false name when they get married.

The church is open to everyone, so it was easy to find out her real name.

Naomi Misora. Suicide.

Devising a plan to bring the one person most likely

to have killed her fiancé to the Ome Art Gallery,

she takes the killer's girlfriend hostage at 2.15 p.m. on April 15th, 2006.

She makes the girlfriend call him.

She then contacts the task force and has a third party confirm her identity.

It's been a long time.

By doing this, she arranges for the investigation team to

watch as she attempts to draw a confession from the killer.

At 2.55 p.m., her hostage tries to break free.

But she stops her.

Naomi then becomes emotionally unstable.

And commits suicide by shooting herself.

I'm sorry!

If only we'd gotten here a little earlier.

I'll send a car for you.

Shiori died back there. That was your miscalculation.

Shiori's death wasn't a mistake.

I killed her!

Huh?

With the "Death Note" of course.

Well that's kinda weird.

Naomi ended up shooting Shaori.

But writing in the "Death Note" doesn't make people kill.

If you wrote their names down...

they'd all die of heart attacks.

Yeah... I know how it works.

After writing down Naomi's instructions,

I went to the next page and wrote down Shiori's name.

Shiori Akino. Killed by a third person.

She becomes involved in a hostage situation at the Ome Art Gallery.

At 2.15 p.m. on April 15th, 2006,

She is forced to call her boyfriend.

She escapes, just as police enter the premises.

But at 2.55 p.m.

[gunshot]

A stray shot hits her and she dies, trying to protect her boyfriend.

I didn't write down that Naomi would shoot Shiori.

And I didn't specify that Shiori would die from her bullet.

So...

you're saying that Naomi killing Shiori... was all just a coincidence?

That's a pretty roundabout way of doing things.

Just to kill Shiori.

It was no coincidence.

I planned it all.

I wrote in the death note

that Shiori would be killed by a gunshot.

And that Naomi would be carrying a gun so

she could carry out her plan to kill herself.

In Japan, no one carries a gun.

Which means that only the weapon Naomi carried

could be the murder weapon.

You know what, Ryûk?

The death note is powerful.

It can change our destinies to make it all look natural.

Even though I never wrote down that Naomi would shoot her.

It all went according to plan.

You know...

you are a devil.

My beloved Shiori was killed before my eyes.

If I tell them I want to join the task force

and throw my efforts into capturing Kira,

everyone would sympathize.

They'd believe me.

Shiori...

Well, Light.

You are...

far more ruthless

than even a Shinigami.

Shiori loved you.

You had her heart.

But you...

didn't you love her at all?

I don't know.

Woman screams

Misa! I know you've been lonely for a long time.

Stop chasing me!

Get away!

I heard it.

I heard you say you wanted to die, Misa.

I never said anything like that!

Come on!

Your parents are waiting for you in heaven!

I'll die with you!

Hold it.

You're my A.D.

Do you know what's gonna happen...

if you don't stop this right now?

At the studio...

I always stand in the hallway...

and watch you.

I'm gonna die for you... die with you.

That is my destiny.

Moron!

Just go away!

I don't want to go to heaven or hell!

No!

It's okay. I'll make sure you don't suffer too much.

No, don't!

Somebody! Help me!

[Woman screams]

Light.

The car is here... Come on.

Let's go home.

Dad, I have a request.

What is it?

Let me be part of the task force.

Hmm?

The most important person in the world to me was killed because of Kira.

I'll never forgive him for that.

So please, Dad, let me join the investigation team.

We welcome you.

We meet at last, Light Yagami.

I am L.

I'd be honored to make use of your intellect.

Let's work together to capture Kira.

But before that... apologize.
