The short stories of the Little Kiras were entertaining, a little sad, and, more importantly, great additions to the Death Note storyline. 
Seeing L again filled me with joy, and his a-day-in-the-life story was funny but not surprising. I wish they delved more into his origins, but L is an enigma. It makes sense to keep it that way.
It says a lot that they had Trump purchase the Death Note lol. And the end of this Little Kira’s short story shows the Death Note’s misfortune shows no prejudice towards its owners, no matter how its used.
The appearance of the Death Note eraser is an interesting (and innocent) choice.
