About Misa Amane

Misa is a famous Japanese idol and a character in Death Note. She seeks Light Yagami as he helped clear her parents’ murderers and eradicate evil from society, using the Death Note received from the Shinigami Ryuk.

Misa also possesses a Death Note from Rem, but she gets caught by the police, earning her the title of the second Kira. Light helps her escape prison by convincing her to pass the Death Note to another person. She agrees, and all memories related to the Death Note are erased from her mind.

Misa receives the eyes of a Shinigami from Rem, giving her the power to know people’s lifespan and names, though it costs her half her lifespan. She uses this power to kill, as the notebook’s owner must write the name and visualize the person’s face.

Interestingly, she uses the Shinigami eyes again, further reducing her lifespan by one-fourth, as she had already lost half her lifespan during the initial acquisition. Now, she has a significantly shortened lifespan.

Does Light Yagami Love Misa
