'''Soichiro:''' ''And why Japan?''
'''L:''' ''Because all anime characters come from Japan. Don't be a stupid asshole.'' }}
Line 8:
In this series, rather than trying to kill all the criminals in the world, Light is killing off other anime characters, in order to become the most popular. Meanwhile, the taskforce thinks Matsuda is Kira.

Line 26:
* [[Clueless Detective]]: L flat out states that he bases his assumptions on absolutely nothing, and decides who to suspect on a whim. If Light is to be believed, at one point L was convinced that Kira was a bowl of rainbow sherbet. He only announces that Light is a suspect to have an excuse to get closer to him, and later to punish him for not answering his text messages.

* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Light and Misa don't want to go to [[McDonald's]] with Soichiro, so he decides to shoot them.
* [[Dirty Old Man]]: Watari, the joke about tying Misa up.
* [[Domestic Abuse]]: Soichiro hits Sachiko as a punishment for speaking during dinner, sells Sayu into medical experimentation, tells Light he's not his son and tries to kill him for refusing to go to [[McDonald's]] with him.

'''Light:''' * [[Laughing Mad|Heh]],* [[Stepford Smiler|What problems?]] }}
* [[Double Standard Abuse (Female on Male)]]: "Aizawa, your wife hits you? This is serious." Actually, this seems more like an subversion to this trope because when Mr. Yagami said the previous quote, he sounded concerned about Aizawa. Also, none of the abuse Aizawa gets from his wife is portrayed as comedic or justified. It's pretty obvious that she's not a nice person, especially when she verbally abuses him in front of their children. Furthermore, Aizawa uses the "She hits me because she loves me/it's my fault" excuse that people in abusive relationships often use.
