New World (episode)

New World is the thirty-seventh episode of the Japanese Anime Death Note.

Synopsis
The contest between Kira and his pursuers finally comes to an end. After Near states that the Death Note Mikami has is a fake, he tells Light that he has lost. Out of options, Light goes insane and desperately claims that Near has framed him, but he finally confesses and gives a speech about how he is now justice. Light tells Near the notebook from headquarters might be a fake. He finally resorts to trying to write Near's name on a piece of the Death Note in his watch. Before he can, Light is shot several times by Matsuda, the latter angry that Light did not care about his father's death. As Light writhes on the floor in agony, Mikami stabs himself with his pen in the wrist, unable to handle losing his "god". Light manages to escape the wharf while Mikami bleeds to death, blood even spattering on the camera, and he runs away. Near orders the Team to leave Light, as it is unlikely he has other hidden pieces and his wounds will probably stop him soon, but Aiwaza decides to go after him. Flashbacks are shown from the earlier episodes, along with an image of a younger, more innocent Light walking past the wounded Light. Ryuk, from atop a tower, looks on as Light escapes, and says that he had promised Light that Ryuk would be the one to write Light's name in his notebook.Ryuk then writes Light's name down in his Death Note. Before Light dies, Misa Amane is shown standing sitting in a train. Light dies of cardiac arrest,lying on a set of stairs (in a sense symbolising that he couldn't go to heaven or hell), and sees L's figure in front of him before he dies.
