| That was really good. He didn't want Ryuk's eyes and the plot to get the FBI mans name was clever |
 |
| That was a great plan. I feel bad for the detective now or later. |

| i feel for ray :( |
| Poor girl he used for the date, prob gonna be scarred for life. |
 |
| I really liked this episode |
 |
| Why light still wanna kill the fbi inspector after the inspector was gonna call it a quit? ITS CUZ LIGHT DOESNT KNOW THAT!!! HE STILL THINKS HE'S BEEN DOUBTED! Com'on guys! You honestly think that light can read minds!? As for killing him, I think its so that L will start doubting light, and thus shortening their distance. So light will increase his chance to find out who L is. But of course, im sure tat light wont leave any evidence. |

So light will increase his chance to find out who L is. But of course, im sure tat light wont leave any evidence. I was also thinking the same that Light may still think he's suspected, but the whole date thing is set not only to know his name but also persuade the agent that he's not "Kira". Besides, in preview he confirms he's not suspected anymore yet Light still insists on killing all agents including Ray. He could kill all criminals without leaving any doubt that there's a culprit behind their deaths if he wanted to begin with. It would only take him extra time to plot different cause of death for each criminal. But he rushed all of their deaths by the default cause on purpose to make his existence clear so I'm assuming he's doing this on similar motives. Except it's more risky this time, but he must have something on his mind, whether to get close to L or something else. |
   “There are two kinds of arrogance. One where you are unequal to the task and one where your dreams are too big. The former is commonplace stupidity... but the latter is a rare species that is difficult to find.”  |
| Light's plan was impressive. Best episode so far. 5/5 |
 |
| Light is the smartest character i've seen in anime so far holy shit that dude's insane! |
| rly intense episode. But yeah it should be obvious that if he kills the fbi agent L is gonna get an idea that its him |
 |
| Ray actually seems like a cool character, and to think Light knew nothing would be found out about him, but he still wants to kill him :v |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Holy shit, Light's good. It's common sense not to accept the deal, what if he had already lived half his life span? Then he wouldn't get to do anything. But I don't think he'd be dumb enough to off his stalker, though. If only his stalker gets killed out of God knows how many, then they're definitely gonna suspect him, plus I think he successfully convinced him that he's innocent. |

| That's one heck of a plan, Light! Raye, you're next! 5/5 |
 |
| Light's plan was really smart, I just hope he doesn't kill the FBI agent. He seems like a mice guy and is just doing his job. |
 |
| Really liked this episode 😇. I didn't thought that Light Yagimi will be so intresting |
 |
| Damn, that really was one hell of a plan. |

| Impressive episode, Light really is a genius. The only thing that disagreed with me here is Lights intention to kill Ray. Or as he says in the preview ''all of the FBI agents''? I don't yet see a reason behind this, because they're not criminals. They're only threatening as in terms of finding out Kira's identity. But this would be selfish, to kill people who jeopardize your mission. While he is doing this for a bigger cause, wouldn't the whole idea lose its meaning if he started to go around killing innocent people? Therefor this all seems kind of contradictory. So I wonder what he will do next. Or maybe he just wants to get closer to L like this. It would probably work, so that might be possible. Also I'd really like to find out what connection L and Light have other than the whole situation right now. It seems that they're connected somehow besides that. I guess I'll just have to wait patiently like the rest of you. Or it could also be that I'm just overthinking it all. Didn't expect this to get so much more exciting in such a short time. Death Note is great. |

| And now Light is slowly becoming crazy with his power. |
 “Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| kind of thrilling, Light feel kinda suspicus by being all cool an shit too me xD (but thats me xD) Poor Raye Penber, he might die as well , n its was his last day on the job... very, Very interesting on how its going uhuhuhu |
| cause MAL is doing there job for once. |
| Light's character seems kinda funky; he's only supposed to be killing criminals but he's easily willing to kill L and FBI agents who have not posed any crime, but only because they challenge his authority. |
| maaan. so clever. im rooting for both L änd Light xD I want L to use his impressive detective skills to somehow catch Light. But at the same time I want Light to outsmart L |
 |
| Light just well played everyone with his test on the capability of Death Note. And the usage of the DN sheet to make the criminal be able to see Shinigami sure was a nice twist. |

| great episode!!! light is very clever, but i do agree that l will just find him out quicker if he kills that fbi guy |
| It's been awhile since I've seen this series, so my memories on the details aren't the best. I'm hoping that each FBI agent was given the name of a prisoner soon to be put to death, which would confirm the suspect in the off chance of the corresponding prisoners death. I don't think this is likely though, as it would lead to Lights capture too quick, not to mention I don't recall this happening. |

| Why??! He doesn't even have to kill the dude...he's gonna stop investigating him now...the murder's not necessary! Please Light, don't kill the hot FBI agent ;_; Also feel kind of sorry for that girl- worst date ever amirite? Kind of guessed Light wouldn't take the Shinigami eyes offer (at least not yet anyway) since it'd take a lot of the fun out of the build up. This episode wouldn't have even happened if he could see everyone's name above their heads, and it'd take the charm out of the series imo. |

| Damn I love the ending scene. Makes me love this anime more always I see it |
| As Ryuk said Light isn't the smartest high schooler in the nation for no reason, and honestly I'm surprised that was never taken into account as the series goes on, but whatever |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| I really like the short scene on the bus. Maybe because it was serene and slice-of-life like and then it shoves you back into drama, reminding you this isn't your typical anime. |
 |
| Fortunately Light didn't take the offer or else it would degrade the detective tension for the show. L caught a big hint it seems.. So, deathnote can make an action command prior to their death but still realistic command. Light, if you're really that smart, I'm assuming you would not kill Raye Penber first, but kill all of the FBI Agent all at once at the same time. If Raye Penber had a meeting after the investigation, Light could use this to kill the other FBI Agent, since he can control people action prior to their death. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| I'm liking how clever light is. Impressing a girl to go kill a guy is some manipulative stuff right there. I wonder what happens next. |
| Numbuh 3, you've got to get off the couch, you cannot sit in that tree house, girl you like Rainbow Monkeys so grab your little shit and then swing! Hand tracks be tracking me to different doorways. In a maze, and I don't know what to do. Guaranteed though, Ima find the emeralds. |
| awww, but i like ray penbur |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| I kind of read the comments in this thread (it's not that long) and I don't understand why ppl keep asking why Light should kill Ray and the FBI agents, I mean, he actually said the reason episode ago that eventually they will return to investigate all the ppl connect to the police again so in the end, they might have find some clue or evidence on him, either it's Ray or another detective, and it actually said again in something like 10+ episodes and not Light himself saying that but the detectives. |
| That was quite a plan honestly, but I'm not sure what would be the best course of action: kill the agent or wait until he stopped stalking him. |
 |
| that plan was perfect and so well thought out, poor girl he had with him though is gonna be scarred for life |
| Honestly the plan Light hatched to get the FBI agent's name was pretty clever. |
| This will gave a hint to L that he is Kira |
 |
| So Light is cool with killing the people who are trying to find him now, not just criminals. It's a slippery slope, as they say. |
 |
| Am I the only one that finds Light idiotic at times? First by killing the fake L and now by wanting to kill the agent instead of not acting supiciously for some time |
| Man, listen to them tear into me. Good thing I'm used to it. |
| damn.. i wouldn't be able to think of anything as smart as that. but i think L would start to suspect light anyways. |
 |
| I might sound too nitpicky, but why is he trying to kill the guy following him? Wouldn't that just make him suspicious? |
| It's just fun seeing the wacky ways that the Death Note is being used for Light to survive suspicion in an almost addicting way for him since by no means is he taking the easiest route to rid of everyone who deems to be against his vision of an idealistic world, but he sure is taking one that makes him satisfied with the game of cat and mouse that he's playing. The way Light used the Death Note to plan out the entire hijacking situation, to the degree where the guy even had physical contact with the paper that was a part of the Death Note and utilize the shinigami Ryuk's appearance to him after that, to throw him off was so wacky but it's so Tsugumi Ohba that its awesome to watch. Maybe the Bakuman fan in me is enjoying the craze of it more than I expected when I decided to rewatch this. Plus, the music and dub voice acting continue to excel as usual. Makes the scenes feel incredibly gripping in the process. Four episodes in, and I've really enjoyed myself, I have to say. I find it already more appealing than Code Geass too, although I can't assertively still say that until reaching the endpoint and experiencing the tons of twists to happen in the future. Code Geass was a show that was crushed by its own ambition and took so many stupid directions with its plot, characters and their indecisiveness and switching nature and plotholes that I still can't fully say Death Note has cleared it convincingly till the end. The start though has won me over with interest. |
| Light is soooo smart, it just adds to the intrigue of everything However, this FBI agent doesn't deserve to die. He JUST said Light wasn't suspicious. Such a bad idea. |
