Why does mello look like a girl

So, he ran off! Mentally, yes. Physically, no! Mello, according to official Death Note statistics, is the fourth smartest human character behind L, Light, and Near, and his ruthless streak is something to be feared. He also wields pistols and is willing to set off explosives. But you'd never guess it if you met him. He's 5'7", or centimeters, and weighs in at just pounds, or 52 kilograms. He's a little guy, and it's no wonder he asks his mafia thugs to do everything for him.

Not just so he keeps his own hands clean, but he's not the biggest kid on the block. Some of those mafia thugs must weigh twice as much as he does. The answer may be surprising: no. Mello is certainly an aggressive fellow, and he would probably rank as chaotic evil in the Dungeons and Dragons alignment chart. Even Light is shocked at his extreme methods, such as blowing up his own headquarters to escape Soichiro's assault team.

But Mello is capable of mercy, and when Soichiro cornered him, Mello thought to himself how he honestly didn't want to kill Soichiro if it could be helped. Later, when Matt died, Mello felt genuine guilt, and hoped that Matt's spirit would forgive him.

Quite a bit. For example, Mello does not have a sense of family with the mafia; they are all merely tools to him, Kira-style, and he killed quite a few people related to that oragnization to keep the Death Note secret. Don't forget how he held Sayu Yagami captive to get the Death Note, and he was ready to have his minion shoot and kill her if Soichiro kept refusing to hand over the notebook. Mello even coerced the dim-witted Sidoh into helping him in exchange for gifting the Shinigami a notebook later.

Yes, if you count some minor censorship. Death Note has some religious themes, especially Christian ones, where Light sees himself as a gruesome messiah leading humanity to a better world through Kira's powers.

He even considers L's defiance a "sin. WammysBoyzRock posted over a year ago. I'm way further than that now though.

But yeah he looks totally female. LadyLilith said: How in the hell? The ONLY thing that makes him look feminine is his hair, and only when it was straight cut.

He has no breasts; his overall body is shaped physically like a teenage guy's. So no, I don't agree. I agree completely with what WammysBoyzRock said, though.

I said in the beginning that I looked on the 7th DeathNote book, I flicked through and the first pic I saw of him was only his head I thought he was a girl I actually prefer guys with long hair And don't EVER cut your hair!!!

XD KnucklesLover posted over a year ago. I prefer guys with long hair too. I would be so angry if he cut his hair back to what it was! I LOVE it the way it is now; he looks even more badass than before I didn't even think that was possible! I really don't see where people get the girl thing. Maybe when he was a kid and he was leaving Wammy's, but I just thought he was adorable back then. But people! The next eleven chapters, which cover a period of almost two months, focus on Light Yagami's meetings with Takada and the SPK's investigation of Teru Mikami , who has been entrusted with a Death Note and continues the killings under Light's distant supervision.

Lidner informs Mello of Near's plan to expose and capture Kira. Timing is essential, and there are only a few days to go before the plan is implemented.

Mello kidnaps Kiyomi Takada by having Matt attack Takada's motorcade with a gas grenade. Mello drives up on a motorbike and offers to take Takada to safety. In the confusion, and with reassurance from Lidner, Takada agrees, not realizing it is Mello until it is too late to get off. After a chase, Mello is able to evade Takada's guards and locks her in a shipping truck. While driving her to a different location, Mello sees on his portable television that Matt was cornered by Takada's guards and killed in a hail of gunfire — something he had not expected and regrets.

Mello forces Takada to strip in order to get rid of any tracking devices; however, he allows her to cover herself with a blanket.

This proves to be his undoing, as she has a piece of Mikami's Death Note hidden in her clothes and the blanket allows her to hide it. Since she knows Mello's real name from Light, Takada uses the hidden piece of the Death Note to kill him. Upon hearing of Takada's kidnapping, Teru Mikami takes his Death Note from a bank deposit box and uses it to make her kill herself by setting fire to the truck and destroying all the evidence — unaware that Light himself has used a piece of the Death Note in order to get her to do the same thing just one minute before Mikami sets it.

This initiative on Mikami's part, instigated by Mello's actions, requires him to go to the bank the day after he has already been there, which is a sudden breach of his usually meticulous habits. This alerts Near's agent, Gevanni , to the location of the real Death Note in the bank and enables them to seize it, bring down Light Yagami, and expose him as Kira.

During the final showdown with Light and Mikami, Near credits Mello as the single most pivotal person in exposing Light's plans and thus bringing about his subsequent defeat. Lidner suggests that Mello may have guessed what Mikami and Light were up to and orchestrated his own death knowing that it was the only way to reveal the true location of Mikami's Death Note. Near doubts if Mello really thought that far but acknowledges that it is only together that he and Mello have managed not only to match their idol, the original L, but also surpass him and avenge his death by obtaining the evidence that leads to the downfall of Kira.

From the manga, it is not clear if Mello did figure out that Mikami had the real Death Note hidden away, since his activities in Japan are unknown until he kidnaps Takada. It has been made ambiguous and left up the reader to decide whether or not Mello intended to die and help Near. After bringing down Kira, Near officially becomes the new L. He is later shown eating a chocolate bar, paying homage to Mello with his favorite snack. In it, he states that he is only telling the story in order to flaunt his greater knowledge of L over Near , even describing Near as a "big-headed twit.

While narrating, Mello uses different techniques: he begins as a typical narrator, but drops it to acquire a way of speech that is usually associated with a live storytelling. Mello's reason for this is that he would have become bored otherwise. The novel also switches from Mello's view and opinions to Naomi Misora 's point of view. In the Death Note television drama , Mello is a split personality of Near's. Mello is initially embodied in a puppet that Near carries around, but later manifests directly through Near.

Mello is aggressive and dangerous, in contrast to Near's gentler nature, and L scolds Mello when he starts to cause Near problems. After L's death, Mello dominates Near's personality and begins taking more drastic actions to catch Kira. Near reveals later that this was a ploy to force Light to take action that reveal him as Kira, and the Task Force and police had been in on his plans.

This suggests Near can control the Mello personality, though it is unknown if this is a new development, or if they have always been able to switch personalities at whim. Mello has not made a direct appearance in the Death Note film series , but he exists in that continuity. The following information is from Death Note How to Read. Ohba said that he introduced Near and Mello together because L individually could not defeat Kira. He felt that introducing one character individually would produce a "repeat" of the struggle between Light and L, so he instead wanted a story involving three combatants fighting each other.

At first, he "wavered" in their ages and considered making the characters the younger version of L, and he did not develop their personalities initially as he wanted to "reveal" them through their actions. Ohba gave Mello the chocolate trait because he believed that chocolate "represented all sweets" and that it would fit with the story arc in the United States. He described the trait as "useful" during the discovery of Mello's base due to the discarded chocolate boxes. Ohba also said that he added Mello's scar to the thumbnails as this appearance would give him "more depth.

The writer recalled that he considered having Mello be the character who ultimately defeats Light. According to Ohba, after the disappearance of Sidoh, he "struggled" with Mello's role.

Ohba's idea of Mello ultimately defeating Light and Near - being "the best" - was strong in his mind, but once Mello had "learned too much about the Death Note" he had to kill him to "sustain the intensity of the story. Ohba said that he let Obata create the character designs and asked him to make both characters look "a little 'L-ish.

Obata said that, since Ohba wanted to "include a little L" in Near and Mello, he tried to keep "the weirdness and the panda eyes. The artist added that the designs for the characters became switched at the design phase; the final Mello had Near's design and vice versa. Obata said that when he created a depiction of the designs, his editor wrote the wrong names accompanying the designs; when Obata received approval he could not say that the labels were incorrect.

Obata said that, for him, Mello's design originally Near's was "more calm and feminine," while Near's originally Mello's was more chaotic with his tangled hair.

However, he came to feel that it was better that the switch happened. Obata added that he designed Mello's clothing based on "what I like," meaning clothes he enjoys drawing and not clothes that he enjoys wearing; Obata has stated that he enjoys drawing "shiny" leather. At first, Obata tried to depict Mello as having "more energy than Near.
