Oh wow, that brought back memories! I'm not much of an anime fan in general, but the animation style of Death Note is visceral and breathtaking. I watched the English dub, but even the visuals leave a lasting impression - they, at least, didn't falter after L was gone. I wonder how much more the narrative could have sustained my interest if he'd either stayed alive, or started to haunt Light's dreams (or waking hours) or something.
Light is a great character! I'm definitely fascinated by your Light/himself ship - parallel dimensions? fantasies? dreams that bleed into reality? So many ways it could go so wrong right. I think I've also seen some great unrequited Mikami->Light thoughts over at fail_fandomanon.
