Yagami= 'I'm a gay'


I wonder, is this intentional? Light does seem disinterested in most of the women that are attracted to him, using them only as puppets. I don't know if that's because he's a sociopath or whether the backwards Yagami thing means anything. In anime, names usually do mean something. Just found this interesting.

That's totally plausible. I hadn't gave that any thought, but now that you mention it...

Tell me you're joking.

Not possible because he shows no attraction to men either, but chooses to use women as puppets. So its not possible.

"Yagami" is a real Japanese family name.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yagami

Light's last name is spelled with a different kanji character, "Ya" is represented with the character for "night" as opposed to the character for "eight" as the real "Yagami" name is. "Gami" is represented by the "god" character (the Japanese word for "god" is "kami", and also the "god" character is the one used in the real-life "Yagami" name). So Light's last name is technically "Night God", a suitable name for Kira.
