- What's better is that him putting the potato chip back in the packet merely consisted of the scene of him taking the potato chip... in reverse.

- When Light relinquishes his Kira memories, he abruptly goes back in the closet. But when he regains his memories...Light: I've won! Muwahahaha! (Dramatic music stops when a Smash to Black occurs) Oh by the way, L, that outfit looks amazing on you!

- Light's Villainous Breakdown in the opening credits:Light: L, why?! Why did you leave me?! Why did you leave me alone with these IDIOTS! *sobbing* And... yeah, I'm over it now.
- Mello's voice. Just... his voice... He would fit right into a Monty Python routine.

Near: Mine's bigger. - Misa refuses to acknowledge that Light is gay.Light: Now I need a place to stay.

- Light doesn't get why the taskforce always wants to hang out at his apartment:Light: I have a question-why is it that whenever we want to work on the Kira investigation we always meet at my apartment?
Mr. Yagami: Oh, you'll see in just a second, Light.
Light: I just don't understand what could be so important...
Misa (in stripper-ware): Okay guys it looks like you have everything you need so I'm gonna go to bed now! Alone! Naked! And with the door unlocked! Bye!
Ryuk: I'll be right there my little apple pie.
Light: Yeah, I still don't see what the big deal is. - The president has his people pick up Near by offering him candy and abducting him.
- When Mello kidnaps Sayu, Mr. Yagami begs Mello to take his gay son as well. Of course, Mr. Yagami knows Light is listening in...Mr. Yagami: How about this? I'll give you the death note and you can take my other daughter for free!
Light: ... (*Death Glare*)
Mello: No, no! I don't want that! I just want the Death Note!
Mr. Yagami: What if I paid you?
Mello: I! Do! Not! Want! Your! Kids! Just the Death Note! - You just had to say it, didn't you, Light?Light: It's been five years and no sightings of L's ghost. I think I'm in the clear.
