Ahhh finally Misachan is introduced :)
And asjdahskjdhkasjd Ryuuku's love of apples just gets more adorable as we go.
I have to say that I applaud Raito for his intelligence, it's not enough to say a character is intelligent and have the audience buy it, the writers actually went out of their way to construct a really confusing game of cat and mouse between Raito and L. I would have got caught out a long time ago, trying to guess L's motives and trying to cover my tracks.
I'm still drawn in by the story, and it's intriguing to see how humans can descend into hysteria when law and order are taken away - even though Raito is essentially killing the criminals which should make society safer, the fear is palpable.
While I initially empathised with Raito's desire to create a better world, I no longer sympathise with his cause, as his sadism is becoming increasingly apparent. It's one thing to knock off a few murderers or molesters, but as Raito is getting sucked in further by the Death Note, and in turn getting more and more worried about being caught, his rationality goes out the window.
Like Ryuuku said, it's not worth killing off evil to create a perfect world, if you're going to be the only one in it =|

When I read a series I am usually worried that the books will get worse as I go through, this (so far) hasn't happened with the Death Note series. I like how the book switches between the characters and it isn't hard to understand who is talking.
I would definitely recommend the series and I plan to read the next book in the series soon.

Sono proprio curiosa di sapere cosa riescono ad inventarsi per mandarlo avanti per così tanti albi ancora!

The tennis game was not really necessary, though the volume is saved by further complications.
