This film contains unmarked spoilers for Death Note. You Have Been Warned!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Death Note: The Last Name is the second part of a film adaptation based on the manga of the same name, which was written by Tsugumi Ohba and illustrated by Takeshi Obata. It was released on the 3rd of November, 2006, and it is the second in the Death Note Series. This film continues from the preceding instalment, Death Note, released five months prior to this film.Having been accepted into the Investigation Team, Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara) sets out to destroy not only L (Kenichi Matsuyama), but the other members before they expose his identity as Kira. He ends up finding those that can give him the advantage to kill his enemies. They consist of the celebrity Misa Amane (Erika Toda), who possesses another 'Death Note', and her Shinigami, Rem (Shinnosuke Ikehata). But when complications arise, Light is forced into pulling off his biggest and riskiest gambit yet. Will this help succeed in keeping his crimes hidden, and allow him to take his rightful position as the 'God of the New World'? Or will he finally lose to the one person at an intellectual footing with him?Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
Death Note: The Last Name / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Misa has more of a conscience than the original, and even comes to acknowledge Light's evil nature and her Mad Love of him that, by her own admission, she just can't quit. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
Death Note: The Last Name / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Light's death essentially combines both of his deaths from the manga and the anime - like the manga, he watches Ryuk write his name in the notebook and dies pathetically while begging for his life, but, like the anime, he dies swearing that he had good intentions and it's played for tragedy. | |

Asshole Victim | |
Death Note: The Last Name / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Kiyomi was someone who only wanted to prove that she was a newscaster worthy of a true promotion to anchorwoman. However, her attempts are constantly badgered by the sexist Sakura TV director Demegawa, and the bitchy current anchorwoman, Saeko Nishiyama. Getting the 'Death Note' not only allows her to boost her already good knowledge and reporting of the locations of Kira's future kills, but it also causes her to become promoted by killing Saeko by a vehicle accident. Her eventual capture had her simply reply that all she ever did was write names in a notebook. While that line was delivered in a mocking tone, there is some truth to her words. If she refused to use the 'Death Note' at that time, she could have got the job she wanted in the right way. | |

Died in Your Arms Tonight | |
Death Note: The Last Name / int_a6bd0685 | comment |
At the end, despite the numerous criminals and obstacles he killed, Light's death is not portrayed in a victorious manner. As he writhes in severe heart pain from his impending doom, he is held in his shocked father's arms. He keeps trying to convince his dad that as Kira, he wanted to make the world a more peaceful place to live in. Not only does this follow through from the previous film's more sympathetic characterisation, it also shows that deep down, he's just a boy being robbed from letting his father see the fruits of his actions. | |

Alas, Poor Villain: Two of them. Kiyomi was someone who only wanted to prove that she was a newscaster worthy of a true promotion to anchorwoman. However, her attempts are constantly badgered by the sexist Sakura TV director Demegawa, and the bitchy current anchorwoman, Saeko Nishiyama. Getting the 'Death Note' not only allows her to boost her already good knowledge and reporting of the locations of Kira's future kills, but it also causes her to become promoted by killing Saeko by a vehicle accident. Her eventual capture had her simply reply that all she ever did was write names in a notebook. While that line was delivered in a mocking tone, there is some truth to her words.
