Talk:L (character)

I'm not sure the picture of L is the most appropriate... I think that his pose looks too much like Near's..
 * The picture of L that is on the 'main page' also used to be on the 'L' page. However, not too long ago, somebody decided to swap it with another image they found somewhere on the net. I was going to revert their edit, but because nobody appeared to dislike the new picture, I decided to leave it there. So if you want to change L's photo, please use one we already have on this Wiki (unless, of course, you can find a much better one). Oh, and next time, please sign your posts using four tildes ( ~ ) so we know who you are. --Dreamanderson 20:37, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Is the information about the photo shoot one-shot true I didn't find anything about it anywhere except here.Pro.Modi 21:03, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

L should have a higher intelligence level: even Near stated that only with Mello's help was he able to surpass L, as well as Light. L is not less intelligent than Near, and might even be smarter than Light, for he was never truly defeated by Light, he was only killed because of Rem's love for Misa. In any case, L is obviously more intelligent than Near and therefore, he should not have an 8, he should have at least a 9/10.--Dynel 13:51, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

This isn't a huge deal, however I noticed that when you click on the picture of L which says underneath it 'artistic perspective of L' It actually says in the comments that it is from the manga. I'm fairly certain this is incorrect as I have seen this picture posted online and it is from an unofficial text based Death Note game. 82.29.131.138 01:35, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Quirks
I think we should add a column on Ryuuzaki's quirks. How he walks, talks, eats, sits, (doesn't) sleep, drinks, etc. Anyone who is familiar with with L should know all of these things.

(I'm being L for halloween, so I studied L in all of the manga, anime, movies, and animated movies for hours just to see how he acts. I think I can perfectly impersonate, once I dye my hair.)

L's Knowledge should be 8/10 - source : Death Note : How To Read volume 13

Ryuzaki?
I have to say the article is fairly satisfying on L, except some of the pictures. But I was wondering if his alias was Ryuzaki or Ryuuzaki with one or two U's

L could still be alive!!!
Did any of you notice that the L killed in the book could have been BB? When Rem wrote down L's name, and when Misa saw L's name, they could have seen BB's name. When L died, that could have actually been BB. Ohba said that BB was killed by Kira and the Death Note.

I think that was when Light first got a hold of the Death Note. He killed prisoners too, so it is possible that he killed the incarcerated BB. Lady Nevaeh 10:04, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

No BB would have been in prison. BB died in prison. and the thoughts L are thinking is unlike BBs.

About the Trivia
In the trivia, it says 272 days is roughly one and a half years, however it is more like a little over half a year. Would anyone mind my changing it?Terror of Death DG-X 01:19, April 18, 2010 (UTC)

Also in the trivia it says that L, Light and Misa are in Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid episode 6. How far along in the episode are they in there? --John 117 spartan 19:46, June 8, 2010 (UTC)L's

young L
in episode 25, i think the kids standing next to watari is L when he was young.

Very weird bug
on some pages, like L's and mostly other charecter pages like mello, BB, even aizawa, i get an enormous text and i think that it's the complete BB novel, can someone fix this weird bug?

L Change The World
I think it should be noted that this was also made into a book. And that a major flaw in it's storyline is that L wrote his own name in the notebook while it states in Death Note 13 How To Read that nothing will happen if you write your name in the Death Note. I think that those are pretty important details. 66.81.37.166 19:28, July 5, 2010 (UTC)Izaka

Actually i think in The how to use section it says you can even shorten your own lifespan. are you sure you didnt read if theres a seventh death note dropped nonething will happen if you write anything in it.

What "L" Actually stands for.
Due to L's behaviour, attitude, and persona, I devise his name stands for "Leonheart Lawliet"

Did anyone notice Light and L and misa met way before?
this took me quite some time to actually find and actually look at. due to many pauses and slow ups of this scene. It is when misa and l are entering a building. unfortually the episode escapes me on the name of what the episode was. but i noticed a man on a bike with a white t-shirt. when i paused the screen to go get something to drink; i noticed the man on the bike was L! now im not sure if anyone has noticed this sudden thing also but i noticed and it freaked me out. here is a picture of that scene.

i still couldnt belive that was what i saw o.o;

That's not Death Note, That's Full Metal Panic, L & Misa made cameos in one episode Greg-T-Hedgehog 23:30, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Mello and Near met L?
Well I've always wondered if Mello and Near actually even met L in person. I did the math, and if I'm correct, when L died at the age of 25 Mello was 13-15 I believe? And that means when L was 18, a legal adult, and most likely left Wammy's Mello was 6-9. Near's even younger than Mello, and I just don't really see in my mind that L would have talked to the two of them. I know they were picked as L's succesors because they were the top two smartest people at Wammy's House. I think I recall that the orphans at Wammy's all had a chance to talk to L over the computer, and ask him questions. Mello and Near were the only two that didn't ask any questions, and so L picked the two of the. That is what I remember, it might of just happened in the Rewrite, or maybe it didn't happen at all, but that's what I think.

So do you think we should say that the two boys have met L or no? It's an interesting question, on that we may not even be able to answer.

L Deuteragonist?
L is more than Deuteragonist.he's looks like more Protagonist in novel and film L,Change The WorLd

I don't know, but he's definitley not the protagonist. The protagonist is the main character, which would be Light.The antagonist is the character who gets in the way of the protagonist. If anything, L would be one of the antagonists of the story. Mikazuki 05:02, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

i think hes talking about the movie and nove L change the world. a book in which L is the protagonist.

he is the Deuteragonis in another note. and a antagonist(until he was killed that is) in the main series and anime.

Ulquiorra
Can I just say how ridiculous the trivia point on Ulquiorra is. First, I don't think they look that much alike. Secondly, Ulquiorra has no relation to L. Ulquiorra is a Menos level Hollow meaning he is the combination of hundreds of different hollows and then there is the fact that Bleach is not Death Note, they have no relation to each other. They are two separate works by two separate artists. They are two separate universes. The trivia point should be taken down.--God (Pray)  19:20, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

I agree, I was reading it, and I found it quite irrelavent. Mikazuki 19:42, January 1, 2011 (UTC) i have to disargee to make a hollow one have to be obsessed with something in this case it was L trying prove that light was kira coulda tranfers over to the hollowied L which hollow L might have enough willpower kill other hollows which turns a Menos level Hollow who still willpower left when aizen found him and make in to a a Arrancar and also hollow are to be oppsites of who they were L having a heart and Ulquiorra not having a heart

Knowledge Rating
Why is L given a Knowledge rating of 9? In How to Read, the stats show that L has a Knowledge of 8. Also, Near has a Knowledge rating of 9, NOT 8 as written on this wiki.

If that's the case then I'll fix it. Mikazuki 16:12, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

Edits
Did some editing - mostly syntax-, grammar-, vocabulary-, punctuation-related (there were also far too many instances of "X said that...", "Y said that..."), and some minor additions, clarification up to:
