Deathnote Discussion (spoilers for those who haven't watched it)
So I rewatched DeathNote last week and stopped watching once L died. I'm not talking about the episode when he died, but the episode afterwards that gave his findings on the Kira case to his successors and revealed that Light had been killing for an additional 5 years.
Why did I stop there? I think it was a better ending to the series than the one they had originally for the Anime.
So what do you think? Personally, I would have liked to have seen a morally gray character like Light win in the end, but leave it up to your own imagination or speculation as to if L's successors actually catch him. A better ending overall would have left out the message to his final successors and maybe have had it broadcast to Light in some way, but that is beside the point.
What do you think?

I liked it. I didn't like the entire cour as a whole; Mello/Near were really dumb characters. I liked the ending, though. I know people think that it is dumb Light lost to Near and not L, but honestly I think it's okay. Light was overconfident after L died. He didn't believe Mello/Near were as good as L, and ended up doing some very stupid things. He would have never tried to pull off a stunt like he did at the end of Death Note against L; it was far too risky. But since he thought nobody could ever stop him and that Near was just a nuisance, he ended up dying. Overconfidence was his downfall. I don't think the ending you described would have been that great. I'd prefer closure to something opened ended like that.
