Death Note
One-Shot
Death Note
This one-shot takes place 3 years after the Light’s death. The public doesn’t know L’s and Kira’s death.
A new "Kira" appears. He only kills old people in terminal states that want to die or that their families want them to die, like some sort of euthanasia.
All the characters reappear. Matsuda maintains his open-minded spirit towards the use of the death notes.
It seems that Riuk’s actions in the human and the fact that he took human apples to the shinigami world are making other shinigamis interested in the human world, like it it happened to Rem. The shinigami who took the death note this time is called Midra.
It’s cool that Near recognizes both L’s and Light’s intellect as really intelligent people.
This chapter also shows that Light must really have been someone strong-minded in order to use the death note. Since the one now could bare realizing that he was actually a murderer.
I think the true objective of this one-shot was to show the development of Near ’s character and how he tries to imitate and follow the original L’s personality. I personally don’t like the way Near is thinking, because he could probably catch this new "Kira" quickly and put an end to the killings. But, on another point, this "Kira" is probably a dumb person only trying to imitate Kira, and he probably won’t pose much difficult to the Japanese police, since they already know about death notes.
There was also a nice poster as an extra.

i’m not sure anymore, it was some time ago already. anyway, not sure.. this was a oneshot that came in some magazine, I doubt that magazine or particular issue was released in america.. but, you never know, i think viz sells shonen jump there, so, if it came out in shonen jump (not sure) you can go to their website and search for it
