One of the things that have always bothered me about Death Note is that Light is a totally different person depending on whether he has the Death Note or not. I always found this to be idiotic.Another thing would be that L always talks about evidence but mostly operates on assumptions. I guess most of the plot wouldn't happen otherwise so I'm willing to forgive this one but where I'm not willing to look the other way is him pretending to be the arbiter of justice and like he has some sort of moral high ground when he has no problem ignoring every privacy law there is or kidnapping people to torture and interrogate them.

>>291942181Seeing how the post-story one-shot manga about the guy who sold the Death Note firmly established that the Shinigami King apparently likes to slap arbitrary new laws and restrictions onto the existing Death Notes to the point it makes even Ryuuk appear considerate in comparison, I have developed the headcanon that perhaps in the past human users of the Death Note could actually keep the lifespan (or at least a part of it) that they took from others which would explain ancient myths and such, but then one day the Shinigami King changed the rules so humans could no longer gain the lifespan of those they killed, which might have "bugged out" the Death Notes for long-term human users as blocking them from getting the designed-for lifespan causes side-effects like massive personality shifts, perhaps because they forgot to also remove something like an adjustment for a human to be able to life as a long-living individual who can exist for a thousand years or such. So Light might be the victim of a "bugged system" managed by a retarded Shinigami King that caused Light to think like a 1000-year old quasi-immortal despite merely being in his late teens and his 20s for the entire story.
