Misa Amane (弥海砂, Amane Misa) is an aspiring model and supporter of Kira who eventually becomes the second Kira. After receiving the Death Note, she seeks out Kira to thank him for killing the man who attacked her family and to offer him her help. After purchasing Shinigami Eyes, Misa learns that Kira's identity is Light Yagami. After meeting Light, she decides to dedicate her life to helping him and discover L's true identity. Misa is a short, slender, and attractive woman. In the manga, her eyes are primarily pale brown; however, they sometimes appear green. In the anime, they alternate between light brown and blue. Her eyes turn bright red when she uses her Shinigami Eye power; through them, she sees a person's name and lifespan above their head. In the games, her eyes are usually light brown, but are occasionally pink. In the film, she has black hair tied in pigtails.

Misa often dresses in a gothic and punk style, though her style changes significantly after the time lapse between L's death and Near's appearance. Misa typically wears cross-shaped jewelry, though in the anime adaptation, these were replaced with heraldic crosses. Misa had patrons among the Death Gods. Initially, it was Jelas. He extended Misa's life at the cost of his own, writing the name of her killer in the Death Note, as Death Gods have no right to extend anyone's life, and anyone who breaks this rule dies. Another Death Goddess, Rem, was present at this and decided to give the Death Note left by Jelas to Misa. Furthermore, Rem herself appears in the human world and follows Misa, protecting her. Misa first received Jelas's Death Note from Rem (episode 11 of the anime, volume 3 of the manga). She also received the Eyes of the Death God at that time.

At the beginning of the manga and series, Light is Japan's top student; at the beginning of the film, he's a college student. He's the son of Soichiro Yagami, the second-in-command in the Japanese police force. Light always wanted to become a police officer to catch criminals and punish them for their crimes. He was skeptical of the world around him and didn't enjoy life. Light believed the world was mired in lies and demanded the arrival of a new God who would cleanse it of its evil deeds.
Light came into possession of the Death Note, and he dared to use it to transform the world by killing criminals. Initially disbelieving in the Note's power, Light decided to test it on a criminal he'd seen on television, who had taken refuge in a kindergarten. According to the Note's rules, a person would die of a heart attack 40 seconds after their name was written in the Note, with no cause of death specified. Light couldn't believe his eyes when a reporter announced that the criminal had died of a heart attack. Afterward, Light encountered a god of death named Ryuk, who, it turns out, had deliberately dropped the Note into the human world from the world of the Death Gods out of boredom. Speaking with Ryuk, Light revealed his intentions to cleanse this world of criminals and become the new god of a new world, given the opportunity. He decided to kill all criminals using the same method: a heart attack. To do this, Light searches the internet for the names and faces of criminals and makes entries in the Death Note. Very soon, people begin to notice a pattern: all criminals die the same way. Interpol then decides to dispatch its best agent, known only as L, to capture him. This man has successfully concealed his identity and face from everyone throughout his career and has promised to catch the strange killer.

Light is introduced as a teenager with exceptional intellectual abilities, a calculating and cunning man. However, after receiving the notebook, Light Yagami decided to become God and create a new world without criminals. He partially succeeded, but he didn't realize that by killing other criminals, he himself became one. He is moderately sociable, but lacks stable friends and girlfriends. He is uninterested in the activities of his peers, constantly remaining alone with his hobbies. Since childhood, Light hated crime and was guided by a sense of justice in his actions, but he did not show himself unnecessarily.

Yagami possesses a sharp, tenacious mind and analytical thinking. He is skilled at cunning, lying, and manipulation, often using people as puppets because he sees no one as his equal.

On the surface, Yagami appears emotionless and calm. In reality, he suffers from delusions of grandeur, hypocrisy, sudden emotional outbursts, and manifest psychoses. By nature, he is cruel, apathetic, and adventurous. Under the influence of emotions and psychological problems, he makes serious mistakes, creates dangerous situations, and fails to understand the consequences of his actions.

However, despite all his crimes, Light will never become the embodiment of pure evil. He sincerely loves his father and sister (he didn't care when his father died, so this is debatable) and will never stop caring for them. Thus, humanity and compassion will forever remain within him.

Light is a young man of above average height with light brown hair and brown eyes. During Part I, he sometimes wore his school uniform, consisting of a brown suit and a red tie, and casual clothes: a shirt with a jacket or a V-neck sweater with a collared jacket underneath. During Part II, he prefers to wear suits.
Light has medium-length brown hair with bangs and hazel eyes. Yagami's other features include chiseled facial features, perfect white skin, and an infectious, charismatic smile. He is always neatly dressed. Light prefers strict and not provocative clothes, which emphasizes his discipline.

Original name: 夜神月
Real name: Light Yagami
Nicknames: Kira; First Kira
Age: 17 years
Light Yagami (Japanese: 夜神月) is the protagonist of the Death Note series. After discovering the Death Note, he decides to use it to rid the world of criminals. His murders are eventually dubbed by the Japanese as the work of "Kira."

Sweets and desserts: cakes, pastries, candies, pudding, ice cream, and sugar (he constantly adds copious amounts to his tea or coffee). As he himself has said, sweets help him boost his brain activity during investigations.
Unusual dishes and combinations: for example, meat with melon or other strange combinations.
Tea and coffee: he drinks them by the liter, always accompanied by a mountain of sweets.

L is a young man of slim build, with pale skin, tousled black hair, and dark eyes. Due to constant insomnia caused by constantly investigating crimes, L has large bags under his eyes. L often wears blue jeans and a white long-sleeved shirt. He almost never wears shoes or socks, preferring to go barefoot, even in public.

Powers and abilities::
L possesses a genius-level intellect, supported by his official title of the world's best detective, recognized by intelligence agencies around the world. He also effortlessly earned top grades at a prestigious Japanese university. L is unique in the world in solving the most baffling crimes, seemingly unexplainable. Before meeting Kira, L's intelligence was compared to the combined intelligence of all employees of five regular investigative agencies and seven intelligence agencies.
Hand-to-hand combat skills - In the fight scene with Light, L demonstrated skills in capoeira, a Brazilian martial art.
Agility - L is agile enough to steal Misa's cell phone without anyone noticing.
L's only weakness is that, when he assumes a normal posture, his mental capacity is reduced by 40%, likely reaching normal human levels. Therefore, he constantly sits in a very strange position, with his legs tucked underneath him. It is unknown whether this is a joke, self-hypnosis, or if it actually somehow influences L's thought processes. He also has a weakness for sweets, but he won't break the law or harm himself because of it.

With his suspicions high, L decides to push his investigation forward and enrolls at Tooh University—the same university where Light studies—using the name of the famous singer and actor Ryuga Hideki. L continues to attend Tooh, confident in his convictions and interrogation skills, while attempting to expose Light and make him an enemy. He does so without skimping on subterfuge and provocation, appearing to be ready to "go on the offensive." L understands this is something of a gamble and knows well that his act of direct confrontation could prove fatal, but because he is convinced of his cause, he is confident that his adversary will not yet risk revealing their secret identity by killing him.
When L reveals his true identity, giving his real name as Ryuga, Light increases his guard but doesn't attempt to write it down in the notebook—it's clearly fake. Light has no way of knowing whether it's the real L or a plant. He's also certain that L has already introduced himself to Soichiro's father, and if he kills the boy, he'll expose himself. If this plant is L, and his real name is Ryuga, then if Light kills him, L will live on and won't reveal his identity, giving him an advantage over Kira. Furthermore, by writing the name "Ryuga Hideki" and remembering the face of the singer bearing that name, Light will mistakenly kill the pop singer, further shifting the blame to Light being Kira. Thus, if L's thoughts are correct and Light is at a dead end, unable to continue killing people, any attempt to eliminate the pursuers will confirm the detectives' suspicions and Light will be caught red-handed and later killed.
After L believes he has Light cornered, L tests his deductive powers through a tennis match, and L and Light end up becoming friends: L believes Light's intelligence would be helpful in the investigation; if Light really is Kira, L would get closer to Kira; and if not, Light would still be useful.

L notices a large number of criminals dying of heart attacks in a short period of time and suspects someone in Japan is behind it. He decides to join the investigation and seeks cooperation with the FBI. First, he decides to test his suspicions, so he broadcasts news segments at different times in different regions, with anchor Lind L. Taylor, introducing himself as "L" and claiming that "Kira is evil." This provokes Kira to commit murder using the Death Note. Kira reveals himself, and L confirms that this is the work of a specific person and that the killer is located in the Kanto region of Japan, as that is where the broadcast was broadcast. Soon, due to the fact that the criminals are dying during free time outside of school, L hypothesizes that Kira is a high school student or college student. Shortly after this incident, criminals begin dying within an hour of each other, deliberately contradicting L's theory by revealing that Kira has access to sensitive police information. He therefore requests that 12 FBI agents monitor those closest to each member of the force. All the agents sent to conduct surveillance are killed by Kira. This frightens the FBI staff, and most of them quit, fearing death. Only Soichiro Yagami, Toda Matsuda, Hirokazu Ukita, Shuichi Aizawa, and Kanzo Mogi remain. L books a room at the hotel (which he requested be considered his headquarters) where the six first saw L, so they can regularly conduct their investigation. He gives them fake police badges, as well as belt buckles, which allow them to contact L in case of emergency. El finds photographs of Ray Penber, which show him reaching for something behind him before dying right next to the train. Furthermore, Naomi Misora, Ray Penber's wife and a former FBI agent who once solved a case with El involving serial murders in Los Angeles, mysteriously disappears. El assumes she died at the hands of Kira.

As you might have noticed, L has quite a few quirks (presumably traits of Asperger's syndrome). For example, he prefers to sit with his legs crossed, even on chairs and armchairs. However, there is an explanation for this. He claims that when he sits normally, his ability to reason drops by 40%. He enjoys sweet and unusual food combinations, such as meat and melon. He holds objects with his index finger and thumb, while raising his hand upward. It is also interesting that in the manga, L sits in a meditative pose while thinking. While thinking, L also often rearranges objects or arranges food in a certain way. Meanwhile, Lowlight's habits are considered inappropriate and rude, namely: biting his nails, slouching while walking and sitting, sitting on furniture with his feet, chewing, talking with his mouth open, and expressing personal observations that could be offensive to the recipient of the conversation. Like Light, L has pride and a fear of being wrong about his theories. This stems from his worldwide status as the world's top detective. L spends most of his time sitting, but this doesn't stop him from being a good athlete. After living in England for five years, he became the champion of the English Children's Tennis Cup. He also has martial arts skills, which are clearly demonstrated during his fight with Light. In chapter 38 of the manga, Light suggests that he remains skinny because he consumes mostly sweets, with his brain using all the glucose.
According to Tsugumi Ohba, when asked about L's ethnicity, he says, "I think he's a quarter Japanese, a quarter English, a quarter Russian, and a quarter French or Italian, something like that."

L is quite secretive and communicates with the outside world only through his assistant, Watari. He never shows his face to the outside world, using only a capital L written in either Old English MT or Cloister Black. He most likely uses Cloister Black, as Watari's initial, W, is written in a different font than Old English MT. After meeting the Japanese task force, he asks them to call him "Ryuzaki or Ryuga" as an additional security measure. None of the task force members ever learn his real name, and it is never properly revealed in either the manga or anime. Many, seeing his disheveled and listless appearance, doubt his powers of deduction, although in reality, L possesses a remarkable intellect. L tends to doubt everything he sees and is extremely meticulous and analytical. He is adept at deceiving his opponents and is willing to go to extreme lengths to solve a case. Some of his tactics are quite drastic, such as sending death row inmate Lind L. Taylor as himself to lure out Kira, while others seem bizarre, such as handcuffing himself to a suspect, Light Yagami. He also has a dry sense of humor and isn't above making sarcastic remarks to people. While he's generally polite to some (such as task force member Shuichi Aizawa), L can sometimes come across as condescending. Using all sorts of tricks, misinformation, omissions, psychological insight, and sometimes even criminal intel, L lures the suspected killer into a false sense of security. Thanks to his analytical prowess, L always calculates the probability of the killer appearing. For example, he puts the probability of Light being Kira at five percent, though his calculations differ from his personal opinion, in which he's over 90% certain of the killer's true identity. This suggests that L suspected Light from the very beginning.

L Lawlight, better known as L (エル, Eru), is one of the main characters in the anime and manga series Death Note. Considered the world's best detective, he investigates the case of a serial killer nicknamed "Kira."

L is a young man with a slender build, pale skin, long, tousled black hair, and dark eyes. One of his most noticeable features is the bags under his eyes, a result of insomnia. He wears blue jeans and a white long-sleeved shirt. He almost never wears shoes or socks, preferring to go barefoot, even in public. He arrived at Light Yagami's school barefoot and sat on a bench, not even bothering to put on shoes before going on stage.
