Jdrama Reaction Ep 6+7
Ryuk is such a tempter. He tells Light to Kill Misa after already telling him to kill his dad
Misa isn’t just begging Rem to kill her, Light can hear her through the phone! Despite saying earlier that he’d kill her if this happened, he still sounds in disbelief and sad.
OOOHOOOHOOO Light panicked yelling at his dad to release Misa or else she’ll die (‘cuz of Rem, and in this universe, it’s less obvious that Rem cares for Misa so Light genuinely believes it will happen). But man! He really wants Misa to live despite all his big talk earlier.
Mogi running in, I love him.
Soichiro doesn’t even have to vouch for his son in this show (which makes sense since the two of them have a complicated relationship), Mogi and Matsu defend Light instead.
Light left a note behind. Camera zooms in on note and thankfully Soichiro is like “a trip?” Because the captions on the app I’m using to watch this don’t translate the note lol.
L: Let’s put Light on the wanted list 😼 Mogi: HE HASNT BROKEN THE LAW!!!
DN, but Hot To Go
Aka who I think would know the dance, and/or like Chappell’s music in general
Misa would try to teach the whole task force. I feel like she’d be a big Chappell fan.
Matsuda is very enthusiastic about learning it.
Mogi learns it only because he feels as Misa’s manager it might be something he should know.
L has no interest in it until he sees how annoyed it makes Light. So he feigns interest and encourages Light to do the dance too.
Light hates Chappell’s music and is not quiet about it. Bitches every time Misa plays a song. Refuses to learn and knows L is only learning to get under his skin. Later it’s stuck in his head and he wants to scream.
Soichiro refused to learn from Sayu and is also refusing to learn from Misa. “We’re in the middle of an important case!”
I’ve always head cannoned that Matt would be very up to date with slang, and I feel like he would research any trends going on. So if he happened upon the Hot To Go dance he would definitely research it. Would not teach himself the dance.
Mello on the other hand. I feel like he would pretend like he doesn’t particularly like her music or know the dance, but he secretly loves it and will indeed blast her music sometimes and dance around. He needs something to release some tension in his life. Matt walked in once and at first Mello was embarrassed, but eventually Matt can be like sitting on the bed playing a game and Mello will just throw on the music and attempt to annoy and distract Matt from his game. Matt ends up learning the dance to dance with Mello.
Near has no idea who Chappell is and has never heard the song. I feel like the only music Wammy Kids were allowed to listen to growing up were like, instrumentals, and Near just never ventured beyond that.
I think Beyond’s music taste would truly be a mixed bag. Like. Super chaotic, you really don’t know what is going to play next. So I feel like he would like the song, but not necessarily know the dance.
Bonus shinigami.
Misa teaches Rem and Ryuk the dance. Rem learns because she is a simp for Misa. Ryuk learns because he enjoys pissing Light off. Will just be in one of Light’s classes by the teacher doing the dance like “hey, hey light! H-O-T-T-O-G-O, I would like to fucking go” because he’s bored af and probably forgot the lyrics. Probably the melody too. He’s trying. Light hates it.
How would an all-female take force be?
Umm wow! Either Death Note now takes place in Barbie- Land or L is getting a lot more shade for hiring only female officers for his task force. As regardless of how skilled they are, there's always going to be questions about the task force, and now there's going to be questions about if it really is the most skilled force for the job.
Because unfortunately as a girl, people have this barrier of you first needing to prove you can do the job before they let you go do the job. Social progress has been made in the 20 years since Death Note was first written, but in Japan has different values then western, a big one being valuing the collective over the individual.
For the collectivest to work, everyone has to value group cohesion and stick to the natural order of things over the individual needs the west favors.
Anyone who is outside of that norm, is labeled troublesome, which leads to isolation and bullying, a problem which people of mixed heritage have enough of a problem with in Japan.
So this many ladies becoming prominent figures in the police force and being born in the 1950'-70's is going to stand out. And they are probably a lot more cynical about their jobs, to say the least, and likely not as highly placed.
If we are going for realism on this Soichiro is probably not Chief in this AU to say the least. And L is losing a lot of social credit for this decision, as this Kira case is not going anywhere fast to say the least.
Here's a video from Lady Virgilla that talks (amongst other things) about Japanese culture and female leadership in the workforce (part 4 has statistics about females in the workforce)
At the same time, being on the task force is also a choice that all of them made in Canon, and I don't know if they would be willing to risk their jobs in the same way as females, given how much work it took them to get where they already are. The cost-sunk benefit would weigh a lot heavier here.
I don't even know if all of them would want to stay on the task force if they were all female as I would imagine it would not do positive things to their jobs long term, particularly after the funding was discontinued, I imagine leaving would be a thing more of them took him up on.
That said you guys are probably here for funner headcanons, and I plan to expand on this in the other Anon ask. May be yours, may not be, so stay tuned, and lets start.
So Mogi is kind of a Stoic, though he seems to get a kick out of messing with Yotsuba Kira.
E:-He probably regretting this after a week.
Mogi really is the best jk.
K:-Hes also a good actor, and does a good job as Misas manager.
E:-He needed a raise.
K:-What if we flip it for Female Mogi.
Acts cheary and friendly around people she doesn't know, but get to know her and you find that she actually doesn't like talking all that much, preferring to spend her downtime quietly.
Can fade in and out of a scene, stealing the spotlight and leaving like a ninja exiting stage right.
Secretly likes quietly appearing behind people and startling them.
I think Mrs. Ukita in this one is a little more cautious, which means Misa doesn't kill her as easily, having the investigation last longer.
E:-Not as hot headed. Still is reckless but instincts much higher.
Do Mello or Matt know how to cook?
I need to know how they even start off their business. Does Whammy prepare them for adult home ec life?
K:-I have no idea? I suppose that depends on what Whammies considers necessary orphan skills. Most in Japan don't, though that's more mostly there's more children than caretakers.
I doubt L learned.
E:-"Cake is a nutrient. It has all the food groups necessary to function properly--"
"That's bullshit and you know it."
Lmao ok I have an idea. But also the idea of Matt and Mello having to do small gigs but influential enough to get their mafia gang appeals to me.
K:-I don't know. I feel that Mello more got the job in part because A Kira had killed off the old boss and they needed someone less high profile. So they made a deal.
Honestly I don't even begin to pretend to have the background knowledge of crime to try to map out how Mello became a crime boss in 4-5 years, so I'm chalking it up to Kira, rule of cool, and Mello being good at psychology in spite of being impulsive as hell.
E:-Nah its fine. My brain wants to fill in the gaps. But also thinking about the fem versions of them. While I can see the same recklessness of a fem Mello, I can see some precautions she takes and more tough around the edges she has to be running a mafia group.
Ohhh. MELLO AT HOT TOPIC!
K:- Eclipse, I think Mello would tell you true punks make it themselves not shop for it
E:-Very true. He has taste lets be real here
K:-I'm thinking about Honne and tatemae, and how the task force probably tried to take L out for work drinking so they could give honest opinions and show face with drinking as the reason for letting social barriers down to give him honest criticism, and L just said Nah, so they went and complained about L drunk.
If you're a newcomer in Japan, you may be in for some memorable work nights out. Here are some survival tips.
E:-Bwhwhahahha. Okay okay thats hilarious. Eyo flavor shots!!
I want them having fun for a bit since this is such a stressful case.
K:-Maybe it would be fun, but actually it serves a social purpose l, such as maybe telling your boss that maybe his ideas are not working so well, or to tell people things you don't like about them, as expressing it publicly/at work would be a social faux pass, but expressing it "drunk" has an excuse, and as its a different setting you can all go back to work and put your "face" back on.
Well sort of. The article I read explains it better.
Arriving in a country full of unreadable people, I was unexpectedly labelled a wild barbarian for the first time of my life. I laughed on…
Emotional honesty. Terrible for the liver.
E:-True very true. Sometimes its an imbalance and most would rather have gone home than attend a mandatory drinking session.
Hey new article popped up. Apparently Japanese citizens are having a lawsuit against Japanese police due to their racial profiling.
So apparently due to the rise of foreign workers and those with obvious mixed race they do get stopped more and checked 'randomly'.
I still remember the podcast of Trash Tase about how when a officer came over checking their 'noise complaint' Conner and Joey didn't need to be checked too much when they answered the door.
But they mentioned Garnt as a Thai man and instantly the officer voice changed
Very little info but here is an article
The case, to be heard in Tokyo District Court, comes as Japan in recent years has seen an influx of workers from abroad.
Also I forgot until someone reminded me Light swallowed a piece of the death note paper he used.
Or he played fucking mario kart with Ryuk.
K:- I forgot that too
E:-Light and video games give me a whiplash. Most time I feel like Light cane out of the womb with a sneer and a pocket protector.
K:-He might have a god complex but he knows how to blend. Video games are blending. Besides, could you see Light having friends over and pulling out a deck of cards or something?
E:-I mean I can see him being decent at poker. Delinquents jk.
K:-But gambling. From the top honors student *shocked gasp*
E:-Lmao top student my ass. He needs a bit of thrill once in a while.
I mean surely making bombs doesn't come out of nowhere.
K:- Who taught him that. I just want to talk. I need to ask. WHY! Why in the world would you teach Light Yagami how to make a bomb!
E:- Me thinking bruh he totally had some bad influence friends. I mean 'classmates"
I doubt his dad would let him see things.
But Soichiro also seems to be the dad to go over safety things with his kids of what not to mix
You be surprised how many people die by mixing bleach and ammonia (spelled it wrong) together accidentally making homemade mustard gas. Or that tiktok trend of mixing cleaning supplies in a batch.
And kids are curious. Light is smart enough on what chemicals can make a home made bomb. But I'm more concerned how he figured the trap. Or his lie about a diary.
That makes it even more suspicious Light. Makes me think u did illegal shit.
K:- Youtube wasn't exactly big those days.
Seeing as how death note takes place in 2003. And youtube was 2005.
E:- Time travel jk. Then again chatrooms were a thing.
K:- "hey all, how do I best trap my desk to keep people out of it. I need to know for reasons. Lol.
Aside from the Yagamis, Aizawa is probably the closest to Matsuda in the task force.
Aizawa is kind of Sochiro's successor. In both Job and team dad energy, and I doubt that would change with gender.
In contrast to Sochiro whose family is used to her being away, Aizawa is in more conflict with her spouse then canon, and feels guilty about it.
She's cooly polite to L, as L drives her absolutely nuts. And has a kind of tranquil furry building up towards her. An increasing air of "I'm done with your bullshit"
E:-Aizawa can be the voice of reason. And its amplified during times when the team needs to be grounded even if she doesn't like what L does. However Aizawa does show sympathy at times to L.
Aizawa has that scary outburst when she has had enough and those types who are consistent about the details of why she's at this point. A strong duty of justice but also loyalty to Soichiro.
K:-Do you think she should leave at the same point of when L pulls the money stunt. Or sooner, in part to be at least a better more present mother she feels her child needs her to be, while returning to a more scheduled time at the police force.
Family means a lot to her, after all.
E:- really? Yes. Yes she would especially seeing she would still be the bread winner.
Soichiro has just as much to stake one
K:-Yah, at one point Aizawa is having Martial troubles with his wife and comes in with a bruise.
E:-However Light is with him. Sayu is almost an adult, and his household is a lot more solid as to Aizawa's newborn child and his wife. Where they have a less stable financial status in case he ever died. Or as L had said no longer funded.
Aizawa want to do good and to do justice. Regardless of their gender its something so Aizawa. But duty and family is what makes him head to the door but breakdown leaving his team behind.
Oooh I forgot about that. Also Aizawa wanted to avenge his friends death too right.
K:- Yes. Though I think we averted or delayed that .
Wait doesn't he have a daughter too? Yumi?
E:-Wait what! Eyo i feel like we don't see much of their family. Did Matsuda have a dog or was I imagining that. I feel like fem Matsuda has a cat or some plants.
K:-I don't know if he would have time for a dog.But maybe he has an old dog he got from his friend. Can see a cat and some plants though. Does the cat get on with cat Misa?
E:-Matsuda does give rescue dog vibes.
Ah yes the cat named Misa. Have made a cameo. I honestly thought of Matsuda genuinely contemplating getting a mask for her dog......in case Kira can kill dogs
"Why would Kira do that?"
"I dunno feels like they can."
K:- Bringing his cat to the office would mean he got to spend more time with said cat.And the plants would have a better watering schedule there too.
In a nod to Australian Matsuda (KTPS4tv) i'm naming one of the pets Bikkie, (Biscuit)
E:-Hehehe. Matsuda moves her cat in and some plants in.
"Matsuda please remove your cat off of me."
"Awww thats sweet. She must really like you L."
"And I wanted to use the restroom for the past two hours."
Fem Matsuda gets a cat. She be lonely since she is single and has a very stressful job.
K:- name?
E:- Lets stay with Biscuit that sounds super cute.
K:-Does human Misa make an anti sugar comment?
E:-Lmao. Probably hahaha
awe yeah, halloween time.
Fuck it

Day 5 of Misa Kissing Week: Mogi × Misa
i’ve been tryna figure out what weird shit matsuda would be into and i can’t figure it out- thoughts ?? like he has to have some sort of weird hobby 🤧
help because the entire task force is definitely into doing weird creepy things ???? also i ended up going all in and i have thoughts for the spk so those might come soon!!
~~~~~
matsuda; he listens to people's conversations and reads messages and emails over their shoulders inconspicuously. L is the only person who knows he does this, but matsuda gave him eight boxes of Pocky sticks so he keeps quiet.
L; he stopped when he was 16 because he made watari mad but he used to bite his nails (and toenails 😐) and like throw them to the side ???? that was the only time watari ever yelled at him in front of the computer, so all of Wammy's house knows this. they wish they didn't
Light ; does """personal things""" on work computers. one time while they were waiting on evidence from the lab he wrote an entire fanfiction about him getting married and falling in love with Hideki Ryuga because he was bored. His dad knows about it, and so does Sayu.
Aizawa; He genuinely enjoys watching gory stuff. It's not really creepy, but off putting. He really likes those unsolved really gory crime cases, and he talks about them a lot. He says they help sharpen his mind but he just liked the blood and graphic descriptions/pictures
Soichiro; Unironically calls his wife "shnookums" and other gag-worthy pet names. in public. With everyone around to hear. The first time it happened was the first and last time they saw Light cry from shame.
Mogi; sweet gentle giant who is to be protected. but he has a Misa Misa shrine. he's got signed stuff, selfies, security footage from headquarters, and an old sock that's actually from Light's mom that got into his laundry by accident but he thinks its Misa's. Its surrounded by ritualistic candles and he talks to it for advice every night. No one knows why Watari laughs when he sees Mogi.
Ukita; He talked to himself. Loudly. everyone knew about everything in his life cus they heard it from him before he even wanted to tell them.
ide; he knows everything about everyone. he doesnt snoop, he doesnt eavesdrop, he just knows. he made matsuda cry once because he knew that Matsuda's fish was dead before he did. Matsuda never told anyone he had a fish.
