You must then be wondering if the pronunciation of "L" is not common, why name someone L? This is so because it is alot easier for them to say the letter L when it stands alone. Since Light is a name, it is a bit harder.

Arigato, Kanji-Kun As always you are well informed and helpful!!! And you answered my second question as well! Thank U Sooo Muuch

Rikku: I noticed your title has changed XD Good girl!! We'll show these men that we can debate DN so good they'll be sitting with their mouths open and not know how to reply!



Peace Love Recycle

A bit? XD We were trying to give the opposite impression, lol It's not only focused on Light tho, we're also tryna justify why L/Near (Mello's outta the question) are wrong.


There's no such thing as happy endings, for when you find true love, happiness is everlasting.

I'm taking my exams, so there haven't been much time for fun stuff=P

I like them both! It probably sounds strange, but that's how it is^^,
