A masterclass in tension and subtle power. Every pause, glance, and shadow between Light and L tests their wits like a high-stakes battle, while the haunting soundtrack and precise animation turn quiet moments into something deeply gripping.

Just like code geass the protagonist is very smart, but this one is a bad guy. He really shows how smart he is in this episode, and it is very unexpected that is why it is so interesting and fun.

Episode 25 serves as the definitive benchmark for narrative closure. The rooftop standoff and the intimate foot-washing scene offer a haunting, non-verbal climax to the rivalry. The technical precision of the final act is both brilliant and devastating.

This episode is chilling in its simplicity. The rain, the silence, and Light’s brief smile before turning away are made more unsettling by the still, minimal animation and careful framing.
