Assassination Classroom: A Great Point Of View With An Inspiring Teacher

 Hi guys! Welcome back to my blog. I know it's been so long after my last entry and I am really sorry about that. Life was getting more busy and I've been making so much research before wanting to do this new entry on my blog. This time,I am going to talk about something that has inspired me throughout the years,an anime that hit me hard. A teacher whose special in my heart deeply. I'm talking about Assassination Classroom. For those of you who don't know what this is,it's basically a class from a school filled with low grade students with the goal of assassinating their teacher Koro for a bet of 10 billion dollars and it's up to their teacher to teach them on how to become assassins. The show is a total masterpiece. It also combine many genres. Action? Checked. Comedy? Checked. Drama? Checked. Slice of life? Checked. If something happens later in the series,it has probably been foreshadowed in past episodes. 

The Earlier Development:

In 2012,Yusei Matsui created Assassination Classroom,a manga with a very original scenario that quickly found its audience. The manga had huge and dazzling success in Japan,with the first volume selling a million copies and it became one of the best-selling mangas in the archipelago. As with so many successful other manga,an anime series was born,alongside two live action movies.

Before the series that interests us here,an OVA was produced back in 2013 by the studio Brain's Base and it adapted the first cycle of the manga (namely the arrival of Professor Koro and the school trip). The series,produced two years later,adapts the story to the end,that is to say the 21 volumes of the manga.

The Humor And Character Development:

Despite its dark concept,the series is very funny,especially thanks to the disconnect between Koro's strange personality and the more serious ones from the students. The hate/love relationship between them is also an asset in their relationship and the evolution of the characters. The antagonists are otherwise interesting and have a well-defined psychology. Finally,the realization is very good and serves very well scenarios which exploits its concept with accuracy. Nagisa was originally going to be a girl early in development and would have a relation with Karma. But Yusei Matsui later change this for making Nagisa a boy to better tell a story within,and this came into jokes around in the anime. 

Under its exacerbated humour and the lightness with which it shows violence,the series wants to be deeper by addressing a social problem which is the difficult schooling of young Japanese with the pressure of the education system and the way in which they are cataloged and despised by the other students who do not succeed in school. Yusei Matsui has also confessed to having created the character of Koro according to his idealization of the perfect teacher,having himself never had the chance to have a good teacher during his school years. Thanks to his way of approaching things,the series was able to find its audience,which was not easy with regard to its subject which could have posed a problems for some viewers. It's all about the effect a good teacher can have on kids who need their support.

Season 1 is merely setting up the students,setting  up the whole cast so we get to know them better,before season 2 kicks into series of great arcs. Without the heroics in the final arc,we won't have a good idea of what Nagisa is good at. While the anime didn't cover all of the students,we at least know which one went to the Maid Cafe and liked it. This classroom is full of kids,share a strong sense of comradery between themselves,whether during planning another nearly impossible scheme or fighting against a common external enemy. I love how they work together as an unit,how they play off each other in comedic moments,and you feel save around those groups of people. The strong suit of this series is not the simple premise,but how those groups of students created such a strong bond between themselves. The show is appealing to a lot of people,because of the social discrimination,and how the teenagers are treated as the worse,as well as the last hope of Earth at the same time. Not all of the kids in Class E are ruffians,but they're all lumped up together as one. The lack of character development in the anime is more addressed in the manga,where most of the things happens offscreen,and more character developments happens. Like Sugaya and Maehara for example. Karma is definitely the most interesting student character and the most recognized beside Nagisa. Nagisa also comes close with slowly development regarding his assassination talent. Assassination Classroom resonated with me,because trust me,I have dealt with a similar system in some sort at my school,and it was never easy for me to live with,especially due to my condition or special needs schooling education. 

For me,the best character would always,and I mean,always will be Karma. I was constantly looking out to him like a brother figure in every episode. Gotta love his cute side as well. His laid-back personality,combined with his weird sadistic bullying tactics,made him pretty fun to have around. Seeing him grow up was nice to behold. Some people,even adults,haven't matured to the point of acceptability,but he does,which made his development that much endearing. He was also very funny and entertaining. 

Life Lessons:

Throughout the course of the manga and the anime,we learn lots of life lessons from Professor Koro and the students of Class E. It also serves as a great escape from the troubles of everyday life. Here are some of them:

• Believe in yourself- The power of self-believe is at the very core of this series. Koro Sensei tries to instill this frame of mind into his kids by knocking them down to build them back up. He shows them that there is no one size that fits all fix when it comes to life and that you shouldn't compare yourself to others for that reason. It's your life and the only way you can take control and accomplish your goals is through believing in yourself,even at your worst moments.

• It's ok to fail- The idea of failure is a major theme that surrounds the series and its cast. From the very first episode,Koro Sensei challenges his class to assassinate him,which ultimately results in their failure. The series rapidly uses the failures of Class E to show the viewers that the power of of perseverance is apart of the process. It goes on to show how each of these class members grows through their defeats and how they develop into more complete people because of it.

• Don't dwell on the pass- The children of Class E aren't exactly what you would call your model students. They are unhinged,cold and confrontational;some might even say,misfits. What this series tries hardest to communicate is to forget the failures of yesterday,the heartache or regret,the troubled past that you may have come from and to move forward for the benefit of your future self.  It takes these same children and unifies them under one goal empowering them to move on from the things that haunted and held them back from realizing their true potential.

• Understanding your weakness can only make you stronger- Success can be seen a long and winding road of ups and downs. The way to properly navigate that road is through understanding yourself;your strengths,your opportunities,your accomplishments. through their slow development from misfits to hungry and engaged students. It's all managed through some diligent soul-searching like Itona's journey from cocky,blowhard to eventually using his honesty as a tool to connect with his classmates and find acceptance.

• Don't just sit around being angry,take action- There are many points throughout the series where Class E comes face to face with adversity;the fate of the world is in their hands for crying out loud. But even though he's constantly a target,Koro Sensei is sure to instill a proactive attitude in his students. None of them are perfect and have plenty of problems they need to work through,but their teacher is always sure to remind them to never let those obstacles stop them. 

• Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard- In every face of life,whether it be financially,physically or mentally,there are very gifted individuals. This series does a great job of displaying that divide in society. Many students lack the physical talents of Itona or Ritsu,but they make up for it with their intelligence much like Karma. But nothing would be possible for these students without the hard work and determination Koro Sensei pounds into their heads. These two themes resonates throughout each episode of the series in an attempt to manifest themselves in the lives of the viewer.

• Never give up- Until its end,the series lives on as a testament to this very sentiment. From all the events of season 2,down to each classmate's individual setbacks during exams or in their personal life;Assassination Classroom strives to empower those helpless and downtrodden to keep pushing forward. To see the backstories of some of these characters,and even Koro Sensei's,and to see how they managed to overcome these events is an inspiring display of perseverance. 

• Don't concern yourself with the opinions of others- One of the most important lessons anyone can learn is the only opinion that should matter is your own. Throughout life,there will be many people we encounter and they will all come with their preconceived notions and opinions. Assassination Classroom tries its best so show that those opinions shouldn't dictate your life,that each decision you make should be for your own happiness and reflect with the values you hold true to yourself. 

• Life is about balance- In all aspects of life,it is important to maintain a proper balance of priorities. Work and life tend to conflict,and concentrating too much effort on one easily distracts from the other. The series makes it a point to convey these truths through its character's strengths and weaknesses,daily lives,and academic aspirations,even in Isogai's responsibility to provide for his family financially in his job outside of school. 

• Creativity is your greatest weapon- Creativity IS your greatest weapon. Whether it be a BB grenade,a surprise blade or a covert attack by the government,creativity is key when it comes to each assassination attempt against Koro Sensei. The series shows the lengths that each student goes in order to get an advantage over their teacher. This is a lesson that should speak to every viewer,that they must utilize the power of their creativity to overcome any obstacle they may face in their life.

                                         My perspective on Koro Sensei:

I would like to speak about Koro Sensei. He is really a great character and teacher. His motivation,his personality,his skills,and his past is very sad and tragic but I won't spoil it. He really cares about his students and would risk his life for them. He is the ideal teacher for me. I usually don't normally cry over a series' ending,but the ending of Assassination Classroom has by far made me cry out loud,especially for Koro Sensei. Just.. The fact they're middle schoolers and their goal is literally to kill their teacher,it's just that hard for them to do it. Whenever they try to assassinate him,this always lead up to another plan or whatsoever and people were all fine with it,as long as Koro keeps on teaching. But when the time has come,they no longer want to kill him,knowing their teacher won't be around for them anymore. It's just plain sad. In response of learning their teacher's past,they wanted to try to save him instead and there was a whole story arc based on that life saving idea. It turns out that saving him would'nt be necessary,because the chance of killing him spontaneously combusting and taking a whole planet with him is less than 1%. Even still,the government are still trying to kill him. And not to mention Karma,who happens to cry for the first time in his life. The students suffered from a very traumatic experience at the end and I can't blame them. As the ''let's save Koro Sensei instead of killing him'' arc was progressing and the rest of the show was near,I had mixed feelings. On one hand,the idea that Koro Sensei could live was something I wanted on some level,not to mention that turning the premise of a series on its head is an incredibly high-risk,high-reward move that can be utterly mind-blowing when done right. Yet at the same time,the idea of going from having to do something morally and narratively  difficult to doing something morally easy would basically ruin everything the show had been building towards. The emotional heart of the show is that Koro Sensei is actually a fantastic teacher (yes I know,i'm repeating this) and person in general,but he's a threat that needed to be eliminated. Even Karma has stated so when he negotiate with Nagisa.  He really cares about his students and would risk his life for them. He is the ideal teacher for me. I usually don't normally cry over a series' ending,but the ending of Assassination Classroom has by far made me cry out loud,especially for Koro Sensei. Just.. The fact they're middle schoolers and their goal is literally to kill their teacher,it's just that hard for them to do it. Whenever they try to assassinate him,this always lead up to another plan or whatsoever and people were all fine with it,as long as Koro keeps on teaching. But when the time has come,they no longer want to kill him,knowing their teacher won't be around for them anymore. It's just plain sad. In response of learning their teacher's past,they wanted to try to save him instead and there was a whole story arc based on that life saving idea. It turns out that saving him would'nt be necessary,because the chance of killing him spontaneously combusting and taking a whole planet with him is less than 1%. Even still,the government are still trying to kill him. And not to mention Karma,who happens to cry for the first time in his life. The students suffered from a very traumatic experience at the end and I can't blame them. The scientist who experimented on Koro Sensei uses the kids has hostages as part of his plan to kill him,and Koro saves the kids and defeats the villain but is weakened in the process. With the government about to fire a satellite-based super-weapon and kill Koro Sensei anyway,he tells his goodbyes to the students,giving one last roll call before they do him in. And.. I'm not going into deeper details onto this because this affected me so much to the point I snap. Koro himself points out that peace was never an option so he was going to die alone anyway if it was'nt for the kids. He wanted the students to do it after all he'd done for them. In addition,the series has twisted into both options: While the students makes the choice that Koro Sensei didn't need to be killed to save the Earth,they were never going to be able to ''save'' him because the governments of the world didn't care.  You grow to love Koro Sensei as much as the students so you're interested into sparring him,but at the same time,you know it's going to end and there is no other way to prevent this. As for Kayano,this would really play a huge part on Koro Sensei to snap. To think she died protecting her teacher from a monstrous scientist and his minion,this had a huge letdown: Reviving. I get that Koro Sensei wanted to try to heal someone whom he love so much and be useful as help,but keeping her as dead would teach everyone that even someone you love dies,they would stay forever in your mind,and that's what Assassination Classroom is trying to tell here,that you must feel what death is like in order to move on. It's the same thing for Koro Sensei. Even if he must die,he would still stay forever in the mind of many people. This is why I respect the last moment of the final episode,because it proves just how much it's ok to cry for someone or a stranger that you've been attached to. 

At first,the only thing the students in his class can do is play along. They're completely at the mercy of a questionably sane creature who can blow up the moon and most likely the Earth immediately,but insists on playing teacher with them for a year. They can't do anything about it as they are now,the government already knows about it plus is trying to do something about it but also can't do anything about it as well. That's how they see it,what other choice do they have but play along? They're the E Class,they have zero motivation because they see themselves as failures because of the school system.  But over time,they actually bond with Koro Sensei because while he is a questionable sane creature,he supports them,trains them,teaches them life lessons,etc.. In other words,he's pretty much the perfect teacher figure for them,and they need one,again because of the school system. They stopped seeing him as a monster because he just doesn't act like one anyway and since he creates the perfect school environment for them,they go to school and focus on exams... While trying to kill him from time to time. It's not like they forgot about the world being closer and closer to annihilation in favor of their newfound brilliant school life,they just still can't do squat about it. They do try. Koro Sensei is very entertaining in my opinion,in a way he makes the class fun. He gets the true respect his deserve. He indeed inspires a lot of people,including me. He doesn't need to make research or something to help others or for teaching because he himself,is already very intelligent from the start. With Koro Sensei around,they feel save and comfortable,and he gives them a challenge that's nearly impossible yet with adequate encouragements along the way. At first,the only thing the students in his class can do is play along. They're completely at the mercy of a questionably sane creature who can blow up the moon and most likely the Earth immediately,but insists on playing teacher with them for a year. They can't do anything about it as they are now,the government already knows about it plus is trying to do something about it but also can't do anything about it as well. 

Why Does Loaf And Lisa Hates Bagel And Becky?

 Do you guys remembers Loaf and Lisa from The Bagel and Becky show? If not,then I shall make a brief introduction to them. Loaf is a gopher who hates Bagel while Lisa is a squirrel who hates Becky. Loaf is careless,mean and self-centered while Lisa is selfish,naughty and stupid. However,the show has never explained why they hate Bagel and Becky so much but one thing I've gathered is a box in the episode Sleep Overthrow. What's even more intriguing is that they're friends with Argentina and Phillipe. Hmmm,is there something going on? Maybe so.

We know Bagel and Becky have a human mom (she's also their owner) who makes them pancakes every morning. She is apparently former friends with Loaf and Lisa at some point. Also,it is noted that Percy is Bagel and Becky's true friend. This means that something must have happened before Bagel and Becky showed up. Here is my take on what most likely happened.

Loaf and Lisa used to be Mom's pets (kids). They were happy at the time and she loved them both. They had a happy life. That is,until one day when Bagel and Becky arrived. Mom quickly grew attached to these two new addition to the family,but this meant that Load and Lisa tried to seek attention from her from time to time. They even tried to put the blame on the other two but no luck. They were getting jealous afterwards. Soon enough,they thought of getting out of the house and that's when the box comes in. They wanna use the box they found so that someone else would take them. However,nobody ever came for them. Their jealousy filled them in with anger not only from Bagel and Becky,but because they had nothing else. At some point,Argentina and Phillipe spotted them,feeling bad for these two poor animals. The two gets the deal of helping them get rid of Bagel and Becky since they are also jealous of the cat and the dog. 

The Interesting Case Of Radcircles

 Hello there,guys. It's me again,and I am here to talk about the Radcircles case.

Now Radcircles,has been a real true mystery ever since the beginning of 2011. For those who didn't follow the Detentionaire series,then I suggest to watch it before jumping into the archives. Otherwise things would be confusing. 

                      Archive 1: Before Radcircles...

Here is the first archive. As I have already progressed into the case and the series by myself,some interesting things has caught my attention and that is the strange Art Wurst and his disappearance. Why is he important you may ask? Because he is the original Radcircles,as his email is indeed Radcircles@anigmahigh.ca. I know,it sounds familiar. The original Art Wurst was one of the founders of the Corporate conglomerate Mann,Wurst and Finnwich. Alongside his fellow founders Maxwell Finnwich and Elizabeth Mann,their high school principal Alexander Nigma and fellow student Ping,he formed a cult dedicated to unlocking the powers of a mysterious pyramid. While still in their high school days,the group succeeded and in the process freed a creature they would come to know as His Eminence. Unfortunately for him,he was diagnosed with an incurable and ultimately lethal disease. Seeking a form of pseudo immortality,he created a legion of clones of himself and over the years,they have created numerous clones of only the most brilliant minds in history all for the purpose of unlocking the pyramid. A high ranking Wurst clone alongside Mrs. Lob,Mr. Pummel,Mrs. Jerkins,VP Victoria and General Barrage worked together on a top secret government brainwashing project. The project was scrapped when it was determined that they could'nt make people do something that was truly against their will. The members of the project with the exception of Barrage,would stay together as teaching staff of A Nigma High. However unknown to the others,Veronica was continuing the project using a few students at A Nigma High as guinea pigs for her employers The Council.

One year prior to the start of the series,Wurst was lured to Room 113B by Victoria's henchman Lynch Webber,masquerading as Lee Ping,and kidnapped and sent him to Coral Grove. Prior to Wurst's disappearance,Lynch stole Wurst's email and use it to similarly kidnap the other scientists and set up the prank and frame Lee.

The Untold And Dark Truth Of Supernanny

 We all know the Supernanny show and who Jo Frost is,but this needed an article because there are things you probably didn't know about Supernanny. I have already talked about Jacob Young who went to jail for rape. 

            The Behind the scenes of the show

While the episodes always wrapped up with happy kids and grateful parents,there were a lot more going on behind the scenes. From an almost failed engagement to a three year old committing arson,there are more than meets the eye. 

The show almost cost Supernanny 's own Jo Frost her relationship. When Jo Frost left in 2011,she explained she was ready to move on from the show and start a family of her own. It turns out that the show almost cost Frost one of her most important relationships with Darrin Jackson. She told in an interview that her relationship with Darrin suffered during filming. You see,Derrin was a production manager on the show so he got to work with her and the others,but it didn't work out. The idea of it not working was'nt an option for Joe or Jackson but the reality is that they had to live by what they preach as well. Jo said she still planned to work after settling down and becoming a mother. However,she and Jackson are committed to making it work no matter what. 

The kids may have been coerced to cry. The beauty of Supernanny was watching the incredible transformation of the kids. The more out of control the children were,the more exciting the episode get. The tantrums were truly groundbreaking and they kept people coming back for more. Sadly,some of these tantrums were allegedly coerced. Producers of the British version of Supernanny revealed that the kids had to cry on the show. Channel 4 board member Roger Graef said they were told to force the children to cry on Supernanny during a seminar at the London School of Economics. However,Channel 4 said this never happened on the American version of Supernanny.

The show has a royal fan. The families featured on Supernanny appeared completely out of control. The kids ran the show as they screamed at their parents and threw their vegetables across the kitchen. Jo Frost had her work cut out for her week to week. However,it seems that you don't need to have lost all control to benefit from Frost and her strategies. Even a seemingly perfect family studied her methods. When Kate Middleton was pregnant with her first baby,Prince William shared that he began watching the DVDs of Supernanny. Prince Harry reportedly got sucked into the show as well. Frost told the telegraph that she was happy when she found out the royal family was watching. 

Did the show exploit the kids?  During the height of Supernanny's success,concerns were raised about the well-being of the families,especially the children. While Jo Frost is the star of the show,it's the kids that make the program addictive to watch. Seeing them from epic meltdown mode to happy and helpful little angels kept people coming back for more like I stated before. However,the kids never actually agreed to be on television. We sat there watching these children during their darkest times. The more distressed they were,the better the episode. Perhaps it was'nt fair to subject them to national television. What will happen when they grow up and see themselves acting that way? Frost has been adamant that the show was only for the benefit of the children and that it never used them for ratings. When the Guardian asked Frost if she was ever concerned about exploiting children,she quickly said no. 

You can use Jo Frost's expert techniques at home. After having a wildly successful TV show,it was only a matter of time before Frost tried her hand at writing. In 2011,she released her parenting book,Jo Frost's Confident Toddler Care. 

Even Supernannies have trouble following their own advice. Frost was insanely busing while filming Supernanny but it turns out that frantic pace didn't go away after the show ended. She told at home that she had to set healthier boundaries for herself after having a health setback following the show. She had a knee injury and it was a though recovery. All the while,she had an anterior cruciate ligament replacement. She went back for therapy for a short amount of time and she was getting better and better. After her recovery,she decided it was time to start saying ''no'' more often. She focused on a better balance and let herself turn down projects when she was feeling stretched too thin.

One family says their sons' behavior worsened after the show. At the end of each Supernanny episode,we the audience had the satisfaction of seeing even the most unruly youngsters happily following the rules. The families always seemed so much closer and more peaceful at the end. That's probably why it's so sad to think that the stories didn't end there. It is truly unrealistic to think that one person could undo years of conditioning in such a period of time. This was certainly true for the Young family. Jo Frost spent two weeks with this family of five boys. She thought the parents about how to use rewards and instituted a ''naughty stool'' when the boys didn't listen. Sadly,the naughty stool went up in flames. The family's three year old son Joel set fire to the house with a kitchen lighter after appearing on Supernanny. The parents have stated that the children were not responsible,but the fire service released a statement saying that Joel was the one who started it. No one was hurt,but the house was destroyed. The Youngs have complained that their sons' behavior actually worsened after the show because they were encouraged to play up their misbehaving for the cameras. Years later,Jacob Young is put in jail for rape in 2020. 

Jo Frost is the face of the show,but it takes a village to help these families. While Jo Frost is very effective,she can't possibly work the kind of miracle we saw on the show completely on her own. She shared with the parents that there is an entire team behind the camera who are vital to the family' success. Frost explained that she make sure that the families always come first on Supernanny and that requires a team. The most important members of that team are the parents. Once the crew and cameras leave after two weeks,it's up to the parents to keep up this new system.

Nannies don't like the show. Not everyone agrees with Jo Frost and her tactics. Surprising group who isn't crazy about her strategies is other nannies. The nanny service ENannySource posted its top 10 reasons why nannies don't love Supernanny. Nannies worry that the show gives unrealistic expectations for nannies. Not all problems can be tied up within an hour-long show,so families should not expect one person to work miracles that quickly. They also worry that the show thrives on drama,much more than is natural for the average family. The average nanny spends her days changing diapers and playing at the park. You don't need epic tantrums and meltdowns everyday. Finally,ENannySource explained that nannies should be part of the family,not the leader. Parents are still in change when it comes to their children,so they need to stay engaged. 

Boy Who Appeared On Supernanny Detained For Rape

 As the titled said,a teenager who appeared on Supernanny as a child has been detained for rape for 10 years in prison.

Y'all remember little Jacob Young from the Young Family on Supernanny back in 2005,right? Well.. Here's the sad thing. It didn't actually do anything to help Jacob. He was 3 years old at the time when the episode was film and now he's 18. According to BBC News,the judge dismissed a letter from Jacob's mother which said the 2005 show led to a ''campaign of abuse and mockery''. Jacob Young has been confirmed to have strangled a victim almost to unconsciousness in her own home,making her fear for her life. The judge said that Jacob Young had an extreme form of sexual curiosity or unhealthy fantasy.

The court heard Young spent the night of October 13th 2018 stalking and taking photos of vulnerable women,before he spotted the victim being supported by her boyfriend as he walked her home. During a trial in 2019,Young's defense claimed he was making sure she got home safely,but the court heard he had a premeditated plan to steal the stranger's bag so he could return it as a hero figure. Once the boyfriend left,Jacob entered the flat and attacked her. Judge Levett said evidence from the victim suggested Jacob enjoyed the violence and she only escaped after promising to let him do whatever with her if he ever let her go to the bathroom. The family was featured in a 2004 episode of Supernanny,in which the five young boys were described as having no respect for their home,their parents or each other. Like I stated earlier,in a letter sent to the court,the mother described the impact that appearing on the Channel 4 show had on each of her five sons.

                         Claim Embellishment

''Your mother said appearing on that TV program led to a campaign of mockery and abuse from the public and peers and school friends'',said Judge Levett. Jacob's mother claimed he was very ''protective'' of women following a fire at the family's home in 2007,which led to considerable media attention. She suggested her son was a person of good character who could not have done what was alleged. All her claims were dismissed as ''embellishment'' by the judge. The court heard Jacob Young had a previous conviction for threatening a 12 year old girl with a knife when he was 14. Jacob Young of Beechcroft Road,denied rape,committing actual bodily harm and theft but was found guilty by a jury. He is sentenced to 10 years in a young offenders' institution with an extended license period of five years.

The Death Note Pilot and the Death Eraser: An Untold Story

 We know the Death Note storyline and what this deadly notebook serve in purpose. But do you really think you might know the true story of it? This may shock you but it actually has a storyline unknown to many people,and that is the Death Note Pilot. 

The Death Note Pilot only saw the daylight in form of a manga and serves as a pilot chapter of Death Note years before Light Yagami. Although not part of the continuity,I do strongly consider it part of it despite what is said on Wikipedia and I don't care. It came out in 2003 and the story did well enough for a franchise,which has led to the first chapter of the actual manga four months later. It differed well from the beloved manga series and included something that no one would have expected.

Taro Kagami,the Original Kira:

The story of the Pilot follows Taro Kagami,a young student of the age of only 13. Basically,he's a child compared to Light Yagami who is a 17 year old teenager and student. Taro finds the Death Note,only to confuse it for being a diary because he recognizes only the English word for ''note''. He didn't recognize the English word for ''death''. Because he assumed it as a blank diary,he takes it to replace a diary he previously lost. He treats it as a journal and writes in it,complaining about students who bullied him,in which it accidentally causes the death of these two classmates of his by heart attacks. After he heard of their deaths,he searched up the word ''death'' in the dictionary and learned the true meaning of Death Note. In disbelief,he continued to write in the notebook,incidentally writing the names of the new bullies. The next day at school,he finds out the bullies are dead. He then ran home to hide the notebook but he meets up with Ryuk. Pretty much like in the actual manga and the anime,he explained he dropped it in the Human World out of boredom,meaning that this plot was already planned from the beginning with Ryuk after all and that was the whole point.

 He then tells him the functions of the Death Note and how it is no ordinary notebook,similar to what he tells to Light in the anime. Shortly after that,two detectives show up at Taro's house asking questions but Ryuk suggest that he memorize the name on their badges and kill them. The following night,Taro had nightmares of the bullies he accidentally killed. In response,Ryuk gives him the Death Eraser. I'm gonna talk about it after I covered the rest of the original Kira. Basically,everyone were resurrected and the two detectives asked questions to the boys at school about how they were once dead and came back to life somehow magically. However,they all died once again,causing the school to shut down. Days later,Taru found out that Ryuk dropped his other Death Note and found out that his classmate Miura was also been bullied and was responsible of the murders. Taro was almost killed by him before attempting to commit suicide but Taro stopped him. After the resurrection of everyone once again,they told them everything but Taro did'nt reveal the existence of the Death Note and kept it. The last scene presented the Death Note seven years later as a cultural phenomenon with its actual existence still in dispute. Ryuk is last seen with an older 20 year old Taro mocking a Death Note survey. At one point,Taro remarked that he could potentially use the Death Note to create a better world,which garners Ryuk's respect. 

The Death Eraser,the forgotten plot device:

What's the Death Eraser,you may ask? It's a special artifact can erase the names in the Death Note and revive people that have been killed with the note. 

Feeling remorse for killing with the Death Note,Taro Kagami was given the Death Eraser by Ryuk and is told that he can erase the names in the Death Note and the victims will come back to life. He does so and discovers the following day at school that it was indeed for real. After they were killed off again,Taro used the Death Eraser again to bring them back to life and explain everything alongside Miura. The existence of the Death Eraser is only true in the Pilot manga and does not exist in any other Death Note media. In the actual manga and the anime,it is revealed that if a cause of death or the details of death are struck out with two straight lines before the forty seconds has elapsed,then they would be cancelled and can be changed if desired but no matter what,once the name of a victim is written down in the Death Note,they will die.

A similar variation of the Death Eraser has been established in the 2017 Netflix movie. A rule is established that if the victim who has been written in the Death Note is scheduled to die at a specific time,the death will not occur only if the page it's written on is burned. The Death Eraser will not help if the deceased person has already been cremated.

The Death Eraser was originally going to be an idea in the anime,but the creators scrapped the idea because they wanted the dead characters to really mean being dead.

Miura,the Original Second Kira:

Miura is considered the original second Kira before Misa Amane. Miura finds the second Death Note on the street and kept it at his home. The next day,he discovered that two bullies at his class were dead. These bullies harassed him and Taro,and possibly many others. Two detectives begun questioning students in his class,including himself. The next day,he,Taro and the other students are surprised to find the bullies alive again. The same two detectives appear again and asks the students how hey came back to life. Before they could speak,Miura write their names in his Death Note to kill them,causing the school to shut down. Miura then threatened to kill Taro before committing suicide,but he was stopped by his friend. After Taro revived everyone,he and Miura explained themselves. Miura was forced to give up ownership of his Death Note by getting it confiscated,leaving his notebook burned by the police. Compared to Misa,Miura did not made the eye deal and therefore did not shortened his lifespan. Another thing that differed him from Misa is that he shares the same Shinigami as Taro,similar to Light and Mikami in the anime. Miura is a boy while Misa is a girl. Last but not least,Miura is a student while Misa is an idol. 

What was the true inspiration of Death Note?

The truth is,Takeshi Obata said he really wanted to draw the story after he heard of a ''horror story featuring Shinigami''. According to him,when he first received the rough draft created by Ohba,he didn't really get it at first and that he wanted to work on the work due to the presence of Shinigami and that the work was dark. He also said he wondered about the progression of the plot as he read the thumbnails and if Jump readers would enjoy reading the comic. Obata said that while there is little action and that the main character doesn't really drive the plot,he enjoyed the atmosphere of the story. Obata stated that he drew the pilot chapter in a way that could appeal to him. Ohba brought the rough draft of the pilot chapter to the editorial department. Obata came into picture at a later point to create the artwork. Ohba and Obata did not meet each other in person while creating the pilot chapter. Ohba said that the editor told him that Ohba did not need to meet with Obata to discuss it. 

In my own opinion,there could be another inspiration for Death Note. You see,there is a myth in Japan that when a person is closed to dying,a God of Death appears and follows that said person until they die. It is also believed that God of Deaths can curse somebody. So why is this connected to Death Note? In the anime,we have the main character Light Yagami,who seems to see a God of Death named Ryuk after getting the Death Note. Ryuk,being neutral to what happens in the anime,follows him around until he dies. This means that Light Yagami was destined to die from the very beginning. And what about the curse? Light was cursed by having the Death Note. 

Not only is this what i'm thinking about,but this could also be a cry for help. Take Light for example. He has enough of hearing about criminals every single day. He thinks that life is not only boring but rotten to him. This theory can be proven in the Drama series of the franchise. You see,as a kid,Light liked playing cops with his family. But one day,his mom died at the hospital. However,his dad was busy at work in an arrestation of a criminal known as Kuro Otoharada instead. After arriving late at the hospital,Light was upset by him for now answering his calls and he ended up distancing himself from his father. He later despise criminals and no longer wanted to become a police growing up,developing what seems to be likely not only hate,but depression. The more it grew stronger to him,the more control lost of his anger from his past. He was stuck with a ruined childhood,which became his rough past. And unfortunately,this was also distancing him from his father as well. Unfortunately,his father blamed himself for having his son this way because he wished he could have been there when he needed it and to understand what he has been feeling. Luckily for Light,he has found the Death Note,in which he could've end his suffering. Killing criminals satisfied him to heal himself. Now here's the twist. L actually understood Light's cry for help. He figured that he used the Death Note to kill his suffering,and even thought Light was a hero for saving his father from Kuro Otoharada. Oh and another thing. Light did eventually tried to jump off the edge at one point,meaning he was indeed suicidal prior to the series. Now this storyline only exist in the Drama series.
