Opinions On Kira.

Well up until he started all that "god of the new world" crap I actaully Liked Light yagami AKA Kira, I mean he was killing criminals and everytrhing, I can understnad how people think moraly wrong but acoording to Immanule Kant he belives that and I quote:

Nothing in the world—indeed nothing even beyond the world—can possibly be conceived which could be called good without qualification except a good will

Then he continues to talk about that it was not the consequences of actions that make them right or wrong but the motives of the person who carries out the action.

With these two factors, We can say that Light's good will of merley wanting to rid the world of criminals is good, but as he started imagining himself as a god and forcing people to obide by him is when we can say he is truely what the world calls "evil."

Thats just my way of looking at it, feel free to post what you got to say on the matter here, Im interesting in as to what people might say.

Light Yagami, in my opinion, if not tainted by the evil power of the Death Note, would have grown up to have a very successful life. He would have been, as he'd said, "The Model Teenager", then Model Adult.. I think he would have really helped Japan, probably Joined the police, and solved many cases.. maybe even worked aside L. It was quite sad, at the end, when he'd reflected on the person he had become, and who he was. I felt sympathetic towards him.

Kira was considered evil in my book by part 2. Not because he killed L, but because he just became more of a... dick. For lack of a better word.

Yes, Light would have lived a very worthwhile life. "You may be popular in your younger years, but the unpopular people will become popular later on!". That wouldn't have really affected Light Yagami. I felt sorry for him in the end when he was reviewing the beginning with the Death Note, and the end with the Death Note. However, he somewhat did deserve it. He was good when he killed only criminals, but when he wanted to become the god of the new world, that was when ... things went out of hand. If Light Yagami hadn't picked up the Death Note makes me wonder...

When Raito killed L I almost stopped watching the series.
I also did feel a LITTLE bad for Raito when he got shot up but y'know...
It's called Karma. =D

I tend to dodge the question... I can't decide whether or not I think it's right to kill bad people.
In general, I use these two points to avoid giving a real answer:
1) What were Light's criteria for being a "bad person"? He didn't ONLY kill Criminals...
2) Light became evil when he chose to kill the FBI agents rather than at least trying to avoid them.

I believe kira's actions were needed for the world. Though I believe Light's intentions were wrong... If Light had wanted to rid the world of criminals for sake of the world and purely for the sake of the world He would have been completely in my good books. But because of the fact he wanted to be 'The god of the new world' He is in my bad books. I still would support him if he appeared in the real world, and in fact I do support him in the Death note world.

((GAAAHHH!!! That thing "^.^" It burns! Anyways...))

I liked Light I enjoyed every single moment of L's death. I for one actually did like the "God of the new world" thing.

Misamane, stop reviving dead topics.
