OKAY

Like

That last reveal is really stretching my suspension of disbelief here

Cause

You really want me to believe that this guy somehow had shinigami eyes passed down to him 

like how???

Those things disappear when you lose ownership of the notebook, so it isn’t an inherent trait and couldn’t be passed on even if one of his parents had a death note at his time of conception (which also lends the question of how that parent didn’t get caught for possessing the Murder Book and killed for killing people or how Watari missed that during the background check)

Like I get that they wanted to still keep an element of the original series/manga so that they could still say “Hey, look, it’s still Death Note related” but this is still such a stretch

especially because they’re using it as an excuse for why BB really isn’t murdering people since they were set to die that day anyway 

1. He’s still the one who takes their lives

2. He mutilates their bodies

3. It’s really too convenient that 3-4 murder victims would all be ready to die in the exact pattern of days, in the same area, and have the correct pattern of initials that B.B. needs to set up this wacko case

4. B.B. had time to find all the victims and plan all that out in roughly a 4 month time-span
