History Funny / DeathNote2017

--> "[[spoiler:The police are hunting L, who's on a rampage with a gun trying to kill Light, who got manipulated by Misa into working with Ryuk!]]"

* Light casually explains to Mia that [[spoiler:he put her name in the book but her death will only go into effect if she took the book for herself]] as though he made a small mistake in their relationship. Coupled with Mia snapping at Light and Light screaming back [[spoiler:"I THOUGHT YOU WOULDN'T TAKE IT!"]] and it makes the scene in question darkly hilarious.

* Light [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl screaming in alarm]] (pictured) when he first meets Ryuk, before hiding under the desk for safety, swearing the whole time. And then Ryuk blows the desk away.

-->'''Ryuk:''' [[EvilLaugh Hehehahaha,]] now I'm rootin' for this guy.
-->'''Light:''' ''(looks back)'' Would you shut the fuck up?
-->''(Ryuk actually looks somewhat offended in the background)''

* At one point, Light invites Mia over to dinner with James and they are having a nice time getting to know each other... only for L to come out of nowhere and sit at the table with his usual pose, with ''no one'' apparently [[BehindTheBlack having noticed him until now]]. Nor apparently the ''huge'' crowd of police officers now surrounding the Turner house.
