*** Wait, L's hair is green? What?
*** Its black, it just has some green tints to itsometimes.
*** ...[https://web.archive.org/web/20120301171326/http://www.animecorporation.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/death_note_05.png it looks dark green to me.] Am I missing something?

Heard someone use "Godfearing" as a synonym for morally upright?

** Once he is done killing his genius rivals, he can start looking for and grooming a successor so the world will always be ruled by Kira. Hell, maybe he would finally consummate his marriage with Misa and produce the next God of the new world himself!
