Death Note - Ryuk

Ryuk loves apples because it is an addiction and all Shinigami love apples. He finds Raito's desire for a "Eden" interesting and decides to stay in the human world to enjoy himself and see how things will turn out.

It appears he is constantly bugging Raito to accept his offer of Shinigami eyes, which allow humans to see how long other humans have to live and their real names! This makes things much easier because the DEATHNOTE needs a real name and image to kill.

Raito refuses because it will cost him half his life and he wants to rule as god longer.Every Death God has only one DEATHNOTE but Ryuk tricked the King of the Death Gods and got TWO, he gave one to Raito(Light) for fun.

Death Note - Yagami Raito

His nickname is Light.He attempts to create a world without evil, an "Eden". he is very smart and is cappable of doing this but L gets in his way. Light is known as Kira(Japan's way of saying killer) Light joins the investigation team on episode 12.On episode 13 Misa shows up at his doorstep, and asks him to be her boyfriend!!! With that Raito got a secret weapon, Misa, who will be his "eyes" because Raito doesn't have shinigami eyes.Raito is VERY good at lying, and is a VERY good actor too. L called him a friend and Raito told him he was his friend too.

Death Note - L - Ryuzaki Hideki

Ryuzaki Hideki is the fake name he uses when entering the same college as Raito. Raito already knows it is fake because it is the name of a famous pop star lol! Although L chose that name on purpose... L loves sweets and it is strange he doesn't get FAT! He is a world class dectective and a genius, he maybe the only one who could stop Kira(Raito) since his reasoning skills are equal or better that his. Besides eating sweets all the time L doesn't wear shoes, and holds things in a certain way.When Light(Raito)was on the investigation team, L called him his best friend. That's sad, he's trying to kill you L!

Death Note - Amane Misa

A Death God, Jealous, fell in love with Misa and saved her life. That was WRONG Death Gods are only for taking lives, not saving them! This is the only way Shinigami can die, so Jealous dies and gives his remaining life span to Misa. The only thing left was his DEATHNOTE so another Shinigami, Rem, stole it and gave it to Misa because it was now hers.

Misa is devoted to Light(Raito). Light just plans to use her but Misa is not smart and leaked out a lot of information to the investigation team! She is often troublesome and brings attention to Light because she is a famous supermodel!!! Light once thought "I want to punch her!"lol, he didn't punch her T.T Misa has the "Shinigami Eyes," which allows her to kill by just looking at their face.

Her eyes allow her to know someone's name and how long they have to live. Even though it cuts one's lifespan Misa could afford to except the deal because her life span was very long because of Jealous.

maybe, she is the cutest and poorest character in Death Note.
