The manga series Death Note features an extensive cast of fictional
characters designed by Takeshi Obata with their storylines created by
Tsugumi Ohba. The story follows the novel of a character named Light
Yagami, who uses the notebook he found in order to cleanse the world
of those humans which he deemed unfit for society. A team of
professional investigators set out to find out the mysterious killer
and arrest him, and thus many other characters are introduced until
Light is eventually caught.In the fictional stories featured in the
Death Note universe, Tsugumi Ohba, the story writer, created
characters that lived in a world featuring a notebook in which names
written on it would lead to the ones named to die, typically the cause
of death being a heart attack when otherwise not specified. Ohba chose
names for his characters in a way that, as he described, "seemed real
but could not exist in the real world", due to the fact that most of
the characters were criminals or victims. Light Yagami, the main
character, is depicted as the deadliest of them. Some character
details differ between the manga and its anime, live-action film and
drama adaptations.Light Yagami (夜神月, Yagami Raito) is the main
protagonist of the Death Note series. After discovering the Death
Note, he decides to use it to rid the world of criminals. His killings
are eventually labelled by people of Japan as the work of "Kira."
