About this episode
The episode discusses the conclusion of the rivalry between Light and L in Death Note and reflects on the manga's impact while considering The Emperor and I as a follow-up.
We close the book (for now) on Death Note - the manga so good we keep calling it One Piece for no apparent reason. As Light and L’s rivalry comes to an end, how are the boys feeling? And is The Emperor and I an adequate palate cleanser?
