I just love it when death note adaptations get meta. When they point out that this story has already been told before. Deep down, L and Light know they're bound to their roles, that they've done this all before, and that this story can only and will only ever go one way for them.

#death note #death note musical #death note drama #death note jdrama #light yagami #L lawliet #in the musical it works as light 'writing' their game to an end while also meaning their story already has a pre-written end #I know this is mostly the musical but “this is the only way we could have met” was such an atom bomb of a line from the jdrama #if they do this in any other adaptation too please let me know #I've watched a bunch of them but the musical and jdrama are my favorites so they're on my mind all the time I might be biased #musical and jdrama supremacy sorry (not really sorry)
