Though the chains of destiny may bind you, though you may be fated to fight, know that a noble heart is strong as a diamond, and as free as golden wind in the sky. Though you may be imprisoned in a sea of stone, you can keep walking toward the light. There’s always a blessing waiting in the wings, and as many signposts to guide you as there are stars in the sky. Go now, and journey beyond the stars!

I may be going slightly mad but I just can't help but think that in chapter 53 when Josefumi's trying to save Kira he looks like he's trying to say something. Like I know he's dead at that point but he just looks like there was something he really wanted to say before he died. Was I the only person who saw this

//i’m assuming by ‘he’ u mean kira, right? i took a look at chapters 52 and 53, but here’s what i gathered from 52 mainly:

obvs we’re led to believe kira likely died on impact with the explosion shrapnel; the first time his face is shown after the explosion is i think to show how clouded n lifeless his eyes are, probably to convey how futile josefumi’s following efforts are

even tho i think he’s pretty much gone, it almost feels like his expression changes in some of the panels after that, so maybe that’s what you’re reading into? (i know the first time i read this chapter i was half in denial and was hoping that was a sign he wasn’t completely gone)… could also just be araki’s famed Lack of Continuity as usual fkdjglkj

but!! curiously in the very last panel of this chapter, kq is briefly shown:

was that just an aesthetic choice on araki’s part? or does that imply kira was still a tiny bit alive? if so, he sustained heavy injuries and probably wouldn’t be able to move or show any sign of so at all… perhaps he was just slightly conscious, unable to do anything, and fading fast. they say your hearing is the last of your senses to go when you die, maybe he even heard some of what josefumi was saying before he was gone for good…

IN ALL i think your take on the situation is plausible :3c
