Character Summary: The most famous detective in the world who chased Kira to the end of the world.

He was one of the top detectives in the world, but because he had never appeared in public, for years, his real identity was shrouded in mystery. With the Kira case, he stepped onto the stage for the first time, but the result of that was . . .

Caption #1: He takes initiative with his words which held the undertones of a lie. He put pressure on Light by pushing him.

Caption #2: If you only look at the results, L lost against Kira. However he had discovered the truth behind the case after his long struggle.

Page 10:
Personality: A stubborn child-like personality who hates losing.

L himself knew about his almost child-like trait of hating to lose eveni n the most trivial cases. He was extremely suspicious (of things) and in order to ascertain the truth for himself, he used various means to uncover the truth. Because of this, there were many times in which other people misunderstood him.

Caption #3: For some reason, he had South American martial arts Capoeira mastered. He also showed us these serious fights many times.

Habit: A very picky eater.

Even during the investigation there was no record of L, with his sweet tooth, having ever eaten a decent meal. Usually, he was seen eating sweet food like candy. It seems that he needed to replenish his sugar level in order for his mind to work. For him to be able to remain in good shape even after eating so many sweets was one of his abilities. Even Misa was envious of him.

Caption #4: Even in the middle of a meeting, there was no lack of snacks. This might seem like an ignorant attitude, but it was his style.

Strength: A genius who has a bold ability to take action.

It is obvious that L's reputation as a famous detective was the result of his intelligence and perhaps also because of his ability to take action. From the boring activity of looking at a monitor day after day to the fast arrangements of securing the culprit, he could do everything by himself.

Caption #5: He stole Misa's cell phone in the midst of a crowd. It was an illegal action, but it was only in criminal cases that he would not hestitate to do so.

L's Speech Quotes:

"Come! Try and kill me!" Vol 1; pg 75
For L, who was cautious, this is a very bold statement, but he was confident that "he cannot kill me".

"Justice will prevail." Vol 2; pg 87
A line that is too immature. Being able to say this without feeling embarrassed shows the strength of his resolution, or does it have another hidden meaning?

"Light is my very first friend." vol 4; pg 132
In the battle against his enemy, L acted out his friendship with Light and Misa. Their cooperative investigation against Yotsuba was a geat comibination.

"I might end up liking you!" Vol 6; pg 49
L's words towards Misa. From his expression, his real intention was hard to read, but this is most likely false. It might seem that he was not totally immune to a lady's attraction.
