I'm wondering what you think would happen if L's successor had been a girl.
I think the series wouldn't have been as exciting. Nothing against female lead parts but I don't think there would have been that many fans of Death Note if the successor would have been a girl. Do you see how many fans there are of L and Near?
Just wondering what you think would happen if the successor had been a girl.
Have fun!!!
Well to begin with if L's successor was a female then they wouldn't be able to make any yaoi with Near and Mello.
Well, that is answering that... But there can still be yaoi with Matt and Mello...
True but it wouldn't be that wierd kind of agnsty sex that would happen between Mello and Near.
Just because they are in competition of intelligence? I think a Matt/Mello relationship would be far more interesting! After all, Matt is cute!!!
Maybe other people would like to comment on this? We got a little off topic.
if it's a girl?
well i guess, maybe it would lessen the excitement a little bit but still, that would be interesting, a young intelligent girl trying to solve out a hard case causing his mentor's death....
that would really be a different thing....
Anyway.... Ok :D
Hey Another Amane just less annoying and bit too much smarter ??? ;) well, I got nothing against female lead parts too... but I think I wouldn't like as much as I like DN now if L's successor had been a girl...

Wow...I'm not sure if it would be for better or for worse, but you're definitely right about one thing: it would be an entirely different feel in the series.
As the rivalry between Near and Mello is often apparent, I wonder if, had one of them been female, the rivalry would be not only over intelligence but gender as well?
Girl=Near
Honestly he was emotional had curly hair,must I go on?
If L's successor had been female...You have to put things into account. 1. It might grab more males attention to the manga. 2. More females might love death note. 3. It could also drop so much attention from the Death Note faster than a dead rat in a bakery. Though I admit it would be pretty cool and interesting to see that truly done there are too many things with that that could ruin it...
I thought Mello was a girl for a long time (I was reading the Manga, so there was no voice to give it away).
Lol look at Misa she was quite evil and could have been pretty good
I really do despise ridiculous yaoi/yuri pairings. I mean, you notice no one ever makes ridiculous hetero pairing? I guess people have rather higher (or more respectful) opinions of them.Quote:

If L's successor became a girl then obviously, more men will be attracted to the show.. But seeing that the Death Note creator is not like other immature anime makers that only thinks of putting huge bumpers to the girls in the show to attract more attention, I have to say that they will make the girl character in to a really interesting one. Like L's character perhaps. Eccentric but adorable. Imagine a girl having lots of make-ups and other girly stuff, but with an incredibly smart mind who can notice a lot of things just by staring at it for a second or so. Wouldn't that be awesome?
Thought Near was a girl for a while there.
Not Sexist, I am a girl
I DON'T LIKE FEMALE CHARACTERS!!
No, they're often catty, stupid and self interested
THE WORLD CANNOT SURVIVE ANOTHER MISA
MattMello FTW!!!(sorry, had to say it!)
I don't see how any of these crappy yaoi pairings have to do with the actual story.
It's just you yaoi fangirls screwing with the story with your sick, twisted ways.
Anyway, I don't think much would change.
Maybe some more females watching.
Maybe, if the girl was pretty, they could use her charms to catch Kira/Light.
And I think the girl would replace Mello.
L x Misa = ridiculousQuote:

I wonder what sympathy Light would have for her as well. Funny how gender could do that.
And this is coming from someone who can't name a female character she likes.
Ok, a female migght work. But I'd rather her be medium attractive, small, intelligent and white/white-blond hair. In other words, a femal Near, which wouldn't change much ecxept there might be more female fans. Near is perfect fot the part. I don't see near as a he or she, even though he is male. Near is just Near. A female Near would have been cool, nonetheless. But I only want a female if she takes on the "L-ish" mannerisms that Near has.
if it was a girl it can show that girls can be just as smart as guys, it also depends on the kind of girl it would be.
the series would have had a little more unusuallity to it, thats for sure, but i dont hink much else would have changed
