happy pride month!!!

The concept of Mello, if he does in fact hold any Catholic beliefs due to the amount of religious symbolism surrounding his character, finding out that Shinigami are real and the Death Note exists, essentially shattering his religious beliefs and challenging his entire worldview. He can't even reliably cling to his faith anymore.

Additionally, the concept of this shift breaking down Mello's internalized homophobia and finally giving him enough reason to just say "fuck it" and stop being weird about his weird homoerotic situationship with Matt.

Little Matt and Mello doddle while I work on a comic, some color testing as well

To stand infront of 13 men all pointing massive guns at you and say ‘you won’t shoot’ is an unfathomable level of arrogance no normal person has

Quote out of the “LA BB Murder Cases”, so full credit to that

I imagine Matt is calling Mello emo as he’s writing this.

I truly hope you enjoy as I plan to illustrate more of the book! Sadly I think these few pages are a bit too busy, but still.

//Interesting Mello things I’ve noticed while attempting to make a canon-accurate cosplay:

Mello’s gun in the manga is specifically a Beretta 92FS INOX, which is stainless steel with a black grip and details, as opposed to the standard Beretta 92FS, which is all black.

Also, as you can see, Mello has attached a Celtic cross to his gun in the manga. None of the other crosses shown in his design are Celtic, but this one is. Go figure.

Not only does Mello wear one rosary, he wears two. In addition to the five decade rosary he wears around his neck, he wears a shorter, one decade rosary around his left wrist. (Also noticed: Mello’s rosaries have cross pendants, not crucifixes.)

Contrary to what I always assumed, Mello only wears biker boots during the Takimura abduction part of the plot, before Obata completely settled on a design for him (he also wears white pants at that point, which he never does again either). Once he becomes the black leather pants Mello we all know and love, his boots–as you can see above and below–are just square-toed dress boots.

Mello’s leather pants are consistently shown as being frayed or torn at the hem. Why? Aesthetic, apparently.

There are no clear images of the weird lumpy shapes on Mello’s wallet chain, but they seem most likely to be skulls. Which is so perfectly “teenage boy attempts to look badass” that I can’t help but love it. (It also appears to attach directly to his belt, somehow? I don’t even know.)

Mello’s hairstyle changes subtly after the explosion. Unscarred Mello has a very neatly coiffed bob with the ends curled under. Scarred Mello’s hair is straighter and wilder.

Sorry if this is unwanted commentary, but I was reminded of what someone else has pointed out long ago, namely the fact that Mello’s gun is almost exactly copied by Obata from the movie Romeo+Juliet:

This is Benvolio’s gun (or a good replica anyway). Striking resemblance. (Though upon googling apparently the model is not the same despite the rest of the design matching because this seems to be a  Sword 9mm Series S ?)

[yagami-raito-kun]

//That is definitely wanted commentary, because now I get to talk about one of the few bits of handgun history I actually know something about. Though Benvolio’s gun is labeled a “Sword 9mm Series S” in the movie (in order to make Shakespeare’s lines about swords sound less ridiculous when everyone’s waving a gun around), there is no such model. Benvolio’s gun is actually a spiffed-up Taurus PT99 with the original lettering erased:

Which, as you noticed, looks an awful lot like a Beretta 92FS:

Why the similarity? Between 1974 and 1980, Beretta was under contract to provide Beretta 92 handguns for the Brazilian military, and one of the terms of the contract required them to open a factory in Brazil and use local Brazilian labor. When the contract expired, Beretta sold that factory and everything in it to Taurus (which was already based in Brazil). Taurus proceeded to make minor cosmetic alterations to the Beretta 92 and go right on producing them, now as the Taurus PT92. (Since the patents for the original Beretta 92–which the Taurus model is based on–are expired, Taurus could do this without having to get a license from Beretta. Weird but true.) The Taurus PT99 is merely a PT92 with an adjustable rear sight. The two lines of guns have been updated and developed independently since then, resulting in more divergence in their appearance than there used to be, but they’re still undeniably close cousins and almost impossible to distinguish from a distance.

You can tell that Mello’s gun is a Beretta rather than a Taurus based on the exact position of all the fidgety knobs (this is where my limited knowledge of handguns runs out, shut up) and the fact that the black grip continues back further toward the back of the gun at the top, but it’s definitely possible Obata was inspired by Benvolio’s gun and confused the models when looking for a reference image.

mattmello but it's mello yearning from a distance in this really embarrassing teen crush way. he kicks his feet in bed at messages, tries his best to stay around matt during everything they do, constantly questioning if he's awkward or looks stupid or if his outfit it too much or too little or if matt even notices. and matt sure doesn't lmao
