Light Yagami

Light Yagami is the central character in the anime and manga series 'Death Note'. As a highly intelligent and gifted student, Light possesses a strong sense of justice and desires to create a world free of crime and evil. His preference for order and control leads him to use the eponymous 'Death Note' to execute criminals anonymously. Light's complex personality is marked by his manipulative nature, charming demeanor, and a growing obsession with power. Relationships with others are heavily influenced by his ambitions; he partners with Ryuk, the Death Note's owner, and clashes with L, a brilliant detective intent on exposing him. Light's journey is one of moral descent, from a self-proclaimed god of the new world to a figure consumed by his own hubris.
