>actually just writes every single criminal's name in the notebook himself
>instead of just targeting important people and only leaving the ones that either are really tough on crime or the cowards that don't want to be killed
Was Light just a micromanager?

maybe he doesn't know their names?

What makes you think he didn't target important people? He obviously did (e.g. yotsuba).

yeah i think thats the lesson, that that mindset makes no sense, and its the mindset the government has in real life

Worse, he was a snitch

He only targeted Yotsuba because some guy made a flashy cult of him, no?
And by important people, I meant government officials, police officers, human rights NGOs, Soros-type millionaires, higher-ups in media organizations, etc.

targetting people like that would just lead to the world collapsing

Japan doesn't have problems with any of those people.

well he did want to be god of the NEW world..

Just don't kill too many at once and it's okay, even if they are dumb enough to not obey.

Yeah, no. Every country that has taxes has corruption because the government pockets tons of it before putting it towards infrastructures.

They wouldn't let anyone publish that in real life retard

Light knew that if he only killed big-timers then petty crimes would be committed because they wouldn't think they were worth the time or effort.
Light had a serious god complex and god watches all.

Those people's names and faces are public information.
Of course there are people that influence stuff from behind the scenes, but good luck getting anyone to obey them after this.

My point is that he should have killed important people so the ones left would do his job for him.

I think that user means that Shueisha wouldn't publish a manga about killing government officials and media moguls

If it made no sense how come his plan worked? Crime was reduced drastically during his activities and after his death.

He wasn't trying to solve the issues that make crime, he was just trying to punish criminals. There's a huge difference. Technically his plan did work - while he was still alive and writing names, people stopped committing crimes.

>let's kill rich ppl...
>why?
>because they're rich lol
dumb libtard

>because they are rich and powerful and the ones who survive will use their money and power to please me
FTFY

Why didn't Light just exterminate the jews?

>how come his plan worked?
Fear

it's heavily implied due to the fact that there are no wars anymore that Light DID use the notebook to kill politicians and military personnel in other nations.
