"Death Note" (US) Episodes 27-37 Quiz

Answer: S.P.K.

Even though in the episode "Comrade" L asked Light to replace him if he would die, L's true successors were between two orphan boys from the orphanage Watari owned, Wammy's House located in Winchester, England, named Mello and Near better known as N. The Japanese police did give Light the title of L just to keep the world thinking that L was still alive. L did not decide between which one would replace him before he died. N and Mello decided to investigate Kira separately. Mello used the American mafia in attempts to steal the death note from the Japanese police. N however created an American organization called the S.P.K., Special Provision for Kira, it had both F.B.I. and C.I.A. agents working together to apprehend Kira.

Answer: Los Angeles

Mello and the American mafia originally had the director of the Japanese police captured but he died while he was being held captive, Light killed him with the death note. The mafia then abducted Souichiro Yagami's daughter and Light's sister, Sayu. Souichiro was the only member of the Japanese police to fly to Los Angeles.

The flight landed at an unknown location before landing in Los Angeles. That was where the transaction successfully occurred. Mello acquired a death note and Souichiro had his daughter returned safely.

When Mello first received the death note, he used it to kill the majority of N's S.P.K. members and some of his own mafia members who had betrayed him. The members of the Japanese police involved in the Kira case eventually flew to Los Angeles as well in search for Mello.

Answer: Sidoh

The death note that Mello acquired from the Japanese police originally belonged to the shinigami Sidoh, this was the same death note that Ryuk dropped in the human world and that Light found. Sidoh first saw Ryuk and asked for the death note back but Ryuk no longer had it.

When Light found out the address Mello and his members were residing, Sidoh found out and went to Los Angeles to get his death note back. Mello and the mafia members were first scared of the shinigami and attempted to kill Sidoh but they were unsuccessful as shinigami can not die from being shot at. Sidoh then told Mello about the rules of the death note and that two rules written in the notebook were fake.

The rules that were fake were "If the owner of the Death Note does not kill within thirteen days of the last entry, he or she will die" and "If the Death Note is burnt, destroyed, or otherwise damaged in any way, all those who have touched that Death Note will die." These were the rules Light told Ryuk to write down before he relinquished ownership of his death note four years ago.

These fake rules convinced L that Light was not Kira then. This was very valuable information for the Kira investigation that Mello learned from Sidoh. He later on told N that two rules in the death note were fake.

Answer: "Kira's Kingdom"

Hosted by Demegawa, "Kira's Kingdom" was a tacky television program that was only interested in making high ratings and profits. Light was disgusted by this show and was worried that this show would repel people away from Kira and his message. He did use this to his advantage however. Light leaked out information about the S.P.K.'s location to Sakura TV. Demegawa then broadcasted from New York City, the location of the S.P.K. headquarters, and urged Kira supporters to destroy everyone inside the building. Light hoped that the Kira supporters would chase N out of the building and that Misa, using her shinigami eyes, would find N on television and then kill him. N and the S.P.K. escaped from the angry mob unharmed.

Answer: They threw money off the top of their headquarters

When the thousands of angry Kira supporters charged at their headquarters, N and his team knew they had to think of a plan quickly to escape. N was prepared for this moment and decided to use his inheritance he received from L and throw it out of the top of their building.

The plan worked and the Kira supporters along with Demegawa were focused on the cash falling from the sky rather than the S.P.K. N and the S.P.K. members then put on police uniforms and escaped from the mob without anyone noticing.

Answer: Teru Mikami

Mikami grew up believing that everyone was either good or evil. He felt that he should confront and eliminate evil so that the good shall prosper. Mikami viewed Kira as a god and was willing to do anything he said. Light noticed him on television and thought that Mikami was the perfect choice to be the next Kira. Kiyomi Takada, a news reporter for NHN and Light's former girlfriend from college, was chosen by the media as Kira's official spokesperson. Light initially did not like that idea but he used it to his advantage and told Takada that he was Kira and that she should be "goddess of the new world".

The three of them worked together but it was Mikami who was the owner of the death note.

Answer: Mogi

Misa was suppose to perform at NHN's annual pop music festival but the S.P.K. took her and Mogi to their headquarters. N knew that Misa was once the second Kira and as a precaution had her held captive so that she could not communicate with Light. Misa at first did not agree to this but Mogi understood why and told Misa that it would be all right. N did tell Light and the Japanese police what he did and Light was fine with it as long as both Mogi and Misa agreed to it.

Answer: Mello

Mello abducted her in hopes of revealing who was acting as Kira. He was successful at that however Takada managed to kill him with a piece of the death note. Before the Japanese police arrived, Light wrote on a piece of the death note for Takada to kill herself by burning the building she was in along with everything she wrote on.

This would eliminate all evidence against Takada at the same time killing Mello.

Answer: "Well Near looks like I win"

Light and Near agreed for both of their teams to meet at a warehouse called "the yellow box" on January 28th, 2013 at 1:00p.m. Near set up this meeting to reveal to everyone that Light was Kira. Light planned for Mikami to show up with the death note and write down everyone's names down except for Light's in order to kill them. Near told everyone that he tampered with Mikami's death note and that he was writing in a fake one. Light expected Near to do this and had Mikami make a fake death note for Near to tamper with, what Light did not know was that Near actually did tamper with the real death note. Light said "well Near looks like I win" at the exact time that everyone was suppose to die which concluded the second to last episode.

Answer: Yes

At first Light acted hysterical and claimed that this was a trap set up by Near to frame him. The evidence was very clear that Light was Kira and he eventually confessed that he was Kira. He claimed that he was the symbol of justice and that the world was better off with Kira. Near then told Light that he was just a crazy serial killer. Light attempted to kill Near with a piece of the death note he had in his watch but Matsuda shot him in the wrist. Light still tried to kill Near by writing with his blood but Matsuda shot him in the arm. Light then trembled out of the warehouse severely bleeding. Ryuk thought that he should end Light's suffering and killed him outside of the warehouse by writing Light's name in his death note.

When Light first found the death note, Ryuk did tell him that he would be the one to write down Light's name when he died and he did.
