"Ambiguously Jewish" is a stretch just because they're not Christian. Especially since Christianity is not all that huge in Japan.


* AmbiguouslyJewish: Light mentions that the Yagamis don't celebrate Christmas, implying that they're either of a religion that doesn't celebrate Christmas, such as Judaism, or that they simply don't care for it out of personal preference.

Added DiffLines:

* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: Light is so much smarter than everyone around him that nobody really understands him, and as a result he's lonely and bored. And while the Sex Note could ''theoretically'' solve this problem by boosting anyone's intelligence to a level where they could be a worthy companion to him, he refuses to do it because he'd just be destroying all their existing relationships with everyone ''they'd'' now be far too smart to connect with.

Added DiffLines:

* IfIWantedXIWouldY: After [[spoiler:having a Sex Note-fueled threesome with Ray Penber and Naomi Misora]], Light explains to Ryuk why he has no intent of going back for more -- their lack of intellectual curiosity makes them ''boring'' to him, preventing any real connection, and "If I wanted to stick my dick in something that wouldn't refuse and couldn't understand me, I'd have bought a blow-up doll."

huh, we misremembered the nature of L's complaint (the actual text doesn't fit this trope)


* TransTribulations: In chapter 27, Light begins experimenting with using the Sex Note for more radical bodily transformations. Later, in chapter 30, one of his test subjects, who was [[GenderBender magically gender-shifted]], makes a blog post about the experience, prefacing it with some troubles they'd been having -- losing a court case against their ex-boss, getting evicted, and being denied SRS for health reasons not explained to them -- which is why they were desperate enough to accept the offer of a random internet stranger claiming to be Kougoukan. L is actually quite disappointed with Kougoukan as a result -- while they do seem happy enough with the results, Kougoukan should have realized that someone this desperate isn't capable of meaningfully giving their informed consent to participate in his experiments.

''[[http://dn-kink2.livejournal.com/1491.html?thread=500947 Sex Note]]'', written for the ''Manga/DeathNote'' Anonymous KinkMeme, is a ''Manga/DeathNote'' AlternateUniverseFic in which Light does not pick up a Shinigami's tool for killing people, but an [[HornyDevils Incubus's]] tool to aid in all things sexual. The different powers this 'Sex Note' gives leads Light down a different and far less murderous path towards improving the world.

This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: When Ryuk tells Light that he can give himself wings if he wanted to, Light responds that he would still have to make the wings invisible, make himself invisible when he flies, and find an appropriate time to sneak away to fly, meaning that the entire feeling of freedom that flying would give him is nonexistent.

* {{Asexuality}}: Light has little use for the Sex Note's ... explicit... powers other than changing the world with it. He finds it morally wrong to alter other people just for one's own sick pleasure.
