waiting patiently for the polar icecaps to finish melting so that we can all be subsumed by eternal winter



This has got to be one of the funniest moments in the Death Note manga to me, when Near pretends to butt-dial Kira to get information. Light’s over there sweating his ass off to come up with diabolical schemes months in advance, and Near’s just like “oops my finger slipped lol sorry”

I mean, sure, it could be his clothes but I would start with the smiling and the fact that his eyes are happy because he has yet to learn his hero died and in fact the good guys do not always win and the world is cruel and unfair and he’s alone in it, but you’re the artist so you would know, I guess.

not to make an extremely niche post but not only do i think that chrissy strangerthings likes bugs. but i also. i also feel that near deathnote does. this ("likes bugs" headcanon) is a prize awarded to only my absolute most darling faves. which is funny bc i am a little scared of bugs
At the risk of sounding like a furry, what do you think the death Note lads would look like as cats?

honestly one of my favourite things about near is that he is, imo, a fundamentally unhateful person — he forgives quickly and he accepts slights against him as non-malicious and therefore not worthy of anger. HOWEVER he absolutely despises light in particular and his passion throughout the series is batting him around in such a humiliating fashion that the task force suspects him more than they did when there was near-irrefutable proof of his crimes. it’s like all the anger he doesn’t have for everyone else is concentrated solely on this one single person. black hole density levels of hatred.
and still in light’s final moments he is not forgiving and he offers no comfort whatsoever, but he isn’t cruel. everyone else stays silent but near answers his questions with the understanding that he is still a person. he lets light keep his humanity, however pathetic he’s become.

i think a lot about akio's proposal in episode 37, and the role utena's rose crest ring plays in the final arc.


in episode 34, the first episode of the arc, he comments on the way she's always wearing it (even on "that night", referring to the night he assaults her. i suppose that is when he expected her to give it up). this episode is, not coincidentally, also the one that reveals the real reason she wears it. it does not represent her devotion to the prince, but rather her promise to anthy from when they were children, and by extension her conviction to continue to fight for her.



in episode 35 akio brings the ring up again in his discussion with touga about the earrings, and just like how utena worries about those not really suiting her, she says she's starting to think the ring doesn't suit her either in episode 37. this is when akio suggest getting one "more suited to her new look". the intent here is obvious: a real engagement ring. kanae is out of the picture by now, and we see in episode 38 that akio intends for utena to... replace her, pretty much.


at the start of episode 37, utena takes the ring off for the first time. i believe she does this in response to seeing akio and anthy together the night prior, being unsure whether playing prince is really the right thing for her to do anymore, but the crucial thing here is that it happens after what was supposed to be her last duel, the one with touga. (we like to call the one with akio in 38 the final duel, but it wasn't really supposed to be one. it wasn't part of akio's plan for utena to try to fight him, but rather to accept his offer of eternity). she is taking it off right when akio doesn't need her to wear it anymore.
the rose crest ring, the thing that allows utena to participate in the duels, represents her role of prince, while the earrings and the engagement ring akio offers represent the role of princess (and bride). both are roles akio has been grooming utena into, and in this arc he is deciding that the first (of course the one that is most meaningful to her identity) has served its use, and that he wants her to give it up in favor of the other.

utena, of course, does not. she puts the ring back on at the end of episode 37, having regained the will to keep fighting for anthy and for their relationship, after the cantarella scene and their heartfelt conversation on the rooftop.


and in the final episode, when the image of dios leans down to kiss the ring and she slams her fist against the ground, she shatters the ring, rejecting akio and everything he stands for, and giving up the role of prince as well. she doesn't need it anymore.
If you answered either one of the yes options, please put in the tags how much taller you think he got.
There's no canonical answer to this (as far as I know) so I just wanna know people's takes on it. Just a reminder that he was 155cm (around 5'1) at age 18 by the end of the main story.
