dancing with a woman whose name you've never known

the homophobic teenage boys in the DN fandom are so weird and annoying lmfao. they rage about light not being canonly gay but he basically is. did the creator actually say the word gay? no, but Ohba doesn’t actually have to say the word gay, not to mention obvious censorship especially at the time DN was actually written.

the manga clearly states and consistently stresses that light yagami does not like women, that he has no interest in women. this is not something shown only after he creates the personality of Kira. it is revealed that even before light picked up the DN, he consistently rejected girls and made the excuse that he would not date until college. while he is Kira, he consistently manipulates various women who show interest in him, while either internally or outright rejecting them.

Light also consistently shows more interest in male characters throughout the manga, even before he obtains the DN. he shows more interest in Mikami vs Takada despite them both being fairly equal in terms of intellect and drive. even before he obtains the DN, while with male highschool friends, he asks one to send him a New Year’s card and the friend replies, “sorry, I only send them to girls.” Misa even outright accuses L and Light of being gay. this would obviously suggest the author is very much aware of what they are writing and implying. did Ohba say light was gay? no. but Ohba DID say that light was incapable of loving women, while also stating that light was very much capable of experiencing love and other human emotions. cope <3

drew this while i was watching season 3 a week ago :P

"light yagami is a misogynist" I say into the mic.

the crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.

"she's right... surprising, for a woman", they say. i look for the owner of the voice. there in the 5th row stands light yagami.

Hey I’ve been struggling with developing a character’s inferiority complex. Do you have any tips on ways to show not tell this?

How to write an inferiority complex

An inferiority complex can be described as a chronic low self-esteem, a consistent feeling of inadequacy.

Causes:

a low status in the social hierarchy

specific aspects about themself (physical or something else) that are looked down upon in society

being talked down on a lot

a lack of parental acceptance

failing to live up to high expectations put upon them

not reaching a goal they decided on themself

How to show a character's inferiority complex:

People act differently with this diagnosis, sometimes also depending on the situation and the person they are with. Here are some ideas.

show them focussing on negative aspects a lot

not being able to see it when something did work out well for them

talking badly about themself

withdrawing from friends and family

not being able to take a compliment or criticism

demeaning other's as a way to make other's feel as bad as they do

trying to get attention and even pity

can be shown through perfectionism

and not being able to cope well if something does not fit into the standard they have

I hope this helps you out!
