After chapter 58, I found it to be a slog. Just cause they're suddenly introducing new characters that are dubbed to be L's proteges and nothing else. Except that they're tasked with solving the Kira case as they're characters Light wouldn't have known about. Plus one of them is very much a copy and paste version of L while the other has mafia ties. I will wait till the next volume to cement this judgement as neither have had much screen time. Feel it'd be too soon.

But also seeing as this series has already had a character fake their death, I wouldn't be surprised if

L actually isn't dead.

Boo. What’s even the point of the story if L’s not there to stop Light? His death was so anticlimactic.

I don’t even see the point of reading the next book. Everything that made the series interesting/enjoyable is gone.

Ryuk is barely even a part of the story anymore.

And Misa is so pathetic, it’s unbearable. I’m so disappointed.
