Talk:Manga Timeline

Hello,

I cannot edit this page &mdash; I presume it's restricted &mdash; but there is something that I think should be corrected:


 * May 26
 * Sayu Yagami get 5,000 yen from Light for not telling anyone about Misa Amane.

This occurs in Chapter 31 "Easy". There is no actual scene of Light giving Sayu any money. I think that we can assume that she is joking &mdash; even Light smiles at her request &mdash; though their mother disapproves of such humour &mdash; shown by her reprimand and hitting Sayu on the head.

Something more appropriate may be:


 * May 26
 * Light asks mother Sachiko Yagami and sister Sayu Yagami not to tell anyone, including his father Soichiro Yagami, about Misa Amane.


 * Hello, and welcome to the wiki! I agree this needs to be changed, thanks for bringing this to our attention and I'll edit it now. :)  MarleneZ.     Talk     05:07, January 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hello,

Here is another


 * May 28
 * L arrests Misa Amane at the university.
 * Misa Amane's manager is arrested on drug charges.
 * Misa Amane's manager is arrested on drug charges.

This occurs in Chapter 33 "Removal". I don't think that the manager is arrested &mdash; there is no indication of that in subsequent chapters and no apparent reason why she should be arrested at all (in the whole manga, she only appears in two panels in chapter 32 when she hurries Misa off to the photo shoot). The fact that Matsuda and Mogi later take over as her manager during the Yotsuba investigation is because they want to keep her under watch until they can explain the evidence that does indicate that she is the Second Kira &mdash; as stated by L at the end of Chapter 36 "Father and Son".

In fact, what L is saying in "Removal" is that Misa has been arrested on suspicion of being the Second Kira but that in order to avoid a panic the official charge is drug possession. And it is Mogy who makes the arrest as confirmed in a phone conversation with L in Chapter 34 "Imprisonment".

Maybe we should have:


 * May 28
 * Misa Amane is arrested on suspicion of being the Second Kira &mdash; though the official charge is possession of illegal drugs.

Cheers,

Adding a Chapter column
Hello, I'm thinking of adding another column to the tables in order to list the chapters in which the events take place. This could help readers in identifying the chapters involved and then referring to them in order to read more details. I've already done the year 2010 (one of the shortest) in order to show how this will work. Any views? :) Intelspy (talk) 01:34, January 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * I like that idea a lot, and think it'd be pretty helpful. :)  MarleneZ.     Talk

Naomi quits FBI
In how to read, the list of events concerning Naomi Misora is listed in chronological order, except for the last one. It's probably a typo, but it says that Naomi quit the FBI in 2001 in anticipation of marriage. So, is there another source we can reference to verify that this is a typo and that she actually quit in 2003?

President Hoope's death was not caused by Kira
I've never thought much of the Timeline and Character Fact File as given in "Death Note 13", hence my remarks above concerning Sayu's request for money and the supposed arrest of Misa's manager. Ohba the writer and Obata the artist may have contributed to it but I suspect that a third party wrote these entries and used his own analysis, based on his own assumptions. Ohba and Obata were not necessarily consulted on these, such as Hoope's death by Kira as mentioned on page 35.

The manga gives no indication that either Light or Mello used their Death Notes to get Hoope to commit suicide. Towards the end of chapter 70, Mello actually tries to contact Hoope following their escape from the hide-out and there is no indication that Light killed Hoope since he is more concerned as to why a Shinigami helped the Mafiosi get away.

I think that Hoope's death can be put down to committing suicide of his own accord, out of fear that the failure of the raid would lead Mello to carry out his threat and force Hoope to provoke World War III.Intelspy (talk) 23:56, October 30, 2013 (UTC)
