Even when confronted with the 13 day rule, L knew he was backed into a corner, he knew that proving Light was Kira was a deathwish, that Light would not let this happen. L knew the whole time that Light was Kira. I love L so it is my own personal opinion that he won. Near is the reason Ryuk chose to kill Light, because he would have been executed or sent to prison. Misa is the reason Rem chose to kill L, because she would have been executed or sent to prison. They both died from the hands of a shinigami because of the actions of people close to them. Light had been punished and died before he could face trial, by the will of Ryuks Death Note.Īside from personal beliefs, it was a draw. Remember he considered the murders to be atrocious and could not go unpunished. L was considered to be slightly evil by the creator, I agree only in the sense that he was willing to do necessary evils, he was only bad in that Makeaveli way, by means to an end.
He also told Soichiro that if he were to die, Light is probably Kira meaning he considered the possibility of dying and believed that Kira could be stopped. Kira being caught was the end goal, regardless of L being alive when it happened which is why from the beginning he said he had to prove he would risk his life. In the end L won because it was his successors who proved Light was Kira. However, he was stopped just short of proof. If Rem hadn’t taken action, it probably wouldn’t have been too long before L had proven to himself that Light is Kira, at which point he would have also told the world about it. We was on a good track, but he was short of the goal. Since you now clarified what you mean by winning:
Thus, applying the rules of Cluedo, L won but he himself wouldn’t have considered him winning due to thinking in criminal investigation terms. In crime fiction or real-world criminal investigations, you don’t win by guessing correctly, you only win by proving you’re correct. In games like the board game Cluedo (or Clue, if you’re on the other side of the pond), you can essentially win by guessing correctly. They never achieved that or they would have arrested (and subsequently tried) Light. Collecting enough evidence to win a court case was also the police task force’s goal. L, however, wanted to prove that Light was Kira with evidence that would suffice to try him guilty. L had been suspicious, strongly suspicious and just a tad less strongly suspicious of Light being Kira throughout the entire anime (or, well: those potions wherein he was alive).

As an illustrator, Obata has also worked with writers other than Ohba in the past, with his first major collaboration being the hit series Hikaru no Go back in the late 1990s.It really depends on what you call winning. With a career stretching back to 1985, Obata has also been credited as a mentor to many of today's most popular manga artists, including One Punch Man's Yusuke Murata.
They also worked together on the recently finished Platinum End, another supernatural thriller. Ohba and Obata have worked together on other projects as well, most notably Bakuman, which ran for four years and followed two high schoolers on their quest to become manga artists for Shonen Jump.
The series' stylized artwork played a major role in its popularity, and many scenes from the anime adaptation have lived on as internet memes. Wildly popular and influential, Death Note was a psychological thriller series in the mid-2000s, written by Tsugumi Ohba with art by Obata. It seems fans should restrain their expectations, however, as this new work is looking to be very different indeed. The artist and illustrator for the acclaimed manga series Death Note, Takeshi Obata, is set to begin a new series very soon, according to rumor.
