Incredibile! Tanto anni fa avevo visto l’anime e me ne ero innamorata, leggere il manga mi ha fatta innamorare di nuovo! Mi ha anche aiutare a superare il blocco del lettore!
Sono sempre più convinta che Raye Pember si sia meritato di morire e che non sia stato lui il primo assassinato da Kira pur essendo innocente , dopotutto stava costringendo la fidanzata a “restare a casa a badare ai bambini dopo il nostro matrimonio”, cosa di cui lei non era particolarmente felice

Well, it was much better than the Netflix show, purely because the author wasn't afraid to go super dark - our protagonist is pretty complex, arrogant and naïve at the same time, and it's interesting to watch his descent into villainy. The conflict with L is still a little odd, his ability to solve crimes is a bit frustratingly uncanny and given that there are so many volumes still to come, I wonder what new ground can be covered.
