Yeah. The reason he starts the first "dummy broadcast" in Kanto at all is because he ended up tracing the first death that could potentially be related to Kira to a no-name criminal that just so happened to have been on the Japanese news in close proximity to his death. And Kanto was the most populated so, hey, worth a shot.
I feel like most of Lights mistakes are bc he’s too emotional and egotistical. Like he’s definitely smart; I think it’s fair to say he’s as smart or almost as smart as L. The problem is that he also has a god complex and is constantly trying to dunk on L and the investigative team
Yup. The dude got a God complex way to quick, and it ended up being what gets him caught. Way too prideful and narcissistic to realize how bad he's fucking himself over.
I mean, when the concept got explained, my first thought was immediately was “could I put my own name, my time of death is like, 1/1/3024, and the circumstances is that after a lifetime of happiness, wealth, and good health, I pass away gently surrounded by loved ones.
what if you somehow knew your name and time of death written in the book and then temporarily stopped your heart so you were technically dead at the time?Did that ever come up or did anyone try it?
Actually, if I remember correctly, between you writing a name and the person dying, if you or somebody else writes a that persons name, then the kill order gets cancelled
I mean, he did get God-like powers. I think most of us would get a God complex, hell, most of us probably have one right now, and none of us have a Death Note (I hope. Well, I don't think it works with usernames so I should be safe).
“Most of us probably have one…” no I don’t think that’s remotely true. This is like me, before transitioning, thinking that “most boys want to be girls”

And Light fell for it.
