Has anyone developed any random habits as a result of watching Death Note?

I sit like L.

When I eat an apple, I do the dance.

yes, I act alot like Misa Amane and do the insane, psychotic Kira Laugh frequently, and have started to deduce things like L.


(Special treat[rare]! Death note cosplay! not mine though.)

I write like Light does when he's fipping out when writing names in the death note all dramatically.
So basically I'm sitting in class all quiet then I bust out with;
"And I will be the GOD of the new algebraic Functions!!!" *insert dramatic arm sweep here*




Freaks people out.

Sitting like this or lose 50% Deducting skills

I am facing Death Note affects. I'm glad you asked this question so I know I'm not the only one. I talk and sit like L a lot of the time, I seriously offered my friend a strawberry to keep a secret of mine((Like L)), and I sometimes do the insane Kira laugh, all of this without meaning to.

Yep ^^
I always twirl my hair like Near, especially when I am think something over. I also talk in a really low voice to myself when I am trying to figure something out, and EVERYBODY get's annoyed at that ;D

I sit like L and bite my thumb nail like him and do the Kira laugh
and I do what near does with his hair and I know if someone is mean or "evil" like mikami and I keep my eyes open wide like L and I talk like L when I'm thinking

Dat's none of your business now is it?

Yes but all bad habits almost XD and almost all by L!!! Here ish my list!

Sit and stare at a computer moniter for hours on end till like 7 am

Hold cell phones with my index and thumb... people get offended apparently from that if you use someone else's and hold it like that XD

Slouching -_-' damn you L.

Whenever I eat a chocolate bar I always try to make a epic CRACK chewing up half of it XD MELLO...

I have the urge to get goggles... Matt damn you too

Whenever I'm sitting and no ones looing I put one leg up to my knee, and if I get caught pple go Wtf are you doing?


I always look over my shoulder if I'm holding a apple....

FINALLY the last one...

I gained the habbit of not caring whose looking but do what I need to, I thank L for that :3

Why, Yes, Yes I Have :)... Actually, And This Is No Joke, I Sat Like L In An Office Chair, Even Before Death Note, It's Just And Automatic Thing And I Do It Without Acknowledgement. I Also Stick My Thumb In My Mouth Like He Does When I'm Looking At A Computer Screen Or Focused On One Thing.
Also, I Usually Laugh Maniacally For No Reason And Scribble Violently In A Random Piece Of Paper In Red Ink.
Oh! And My Reasoning And Deductive Skills Have Gone Up By 40% ^^

Yes in fact I have! Sometimes I sit like L (especially when I go sailing in a tiny sailboat) and if anyone offers to go out for ice-cream or anything I'm like, "Make sure to have your two-three servings a day!" (see below). Also I did kind of wanted to have goggles once, because every once in a while you find someone who always wears a pair (Matt) and I find cool (but I end up not wearing them. you lucky people.) Finally, this isn't exactly from watching Death Note but reinforced it, I want to dye my hair white (like Near?). and this was before Death Note, and I finally my mom about it and she said: "Like old person white? No!". So there you have it.

Yepperz! Suddenly I have the random habit of using big word in sentances, I have a craving to sit with both my feet up on the chair, and I've use to fingers to handle things. I've also started laughing for no aparent reason. All of which, have happended after contributing my entre existance(ya see, there i go again with the big words!) to Death Note..... o.o

Hmm...well I had always twirl my hair while thinking deeply or when I get frustrated...but after seeing Death Note it became important :D

And when people talks about justice I can't help but said "Kira is justice!" or "Justice will prevail" depending my mood.

I have attempted to eat chocolate like Mello but I failed.

In my classroom some friend became obsessioned because of me and he put us all characters. (I'm Mikami) He is both Ligt and L. But he's so damn like L. Seriously he can act him so freaking fine, and he's really pale and his hair is dark and he has the same form of the adam's apple and...he's just exactly as L.

Another friend likes a lot sweets because of L. One time she eat cake with strawberries in my house and attempt to sit like L in the bed but she lost balance and flew to the floor very funny.The strawberries flew too, I had to gave them to my dog xD

I've made a odd habit of thinking to myself in ways that I start making faces when I figure something out. My friends often look at me and ask "Why do you look so surprised all of a sudden?" I also tend to put my hands around my mouth area when thinking hard about something important. And I can't forget my love for leather suits, chocolate, video games, and fuzzy jackets! ^_^

I developed some but others were ones I had before I even knew what Death Note was and never noticed till then.

- Near's hair twirl. I used to do that consently as a younger child. But I stopped a long time ago. I still catch myself do it osscianaly but then I'll stop immediatly.
- Light's manic laugh. I have to be in a proper hyper mood to start laughing like he doe's. It's quite embrassing when I do it to be honest. > . <
- Light's Potato Chip Eating. Well, who doe's NOT eat potato chips? Sadly they don't sparkle when I chomp on them. :(
- L's Sweet Addiction. I've always had a love for candy. I do admit though, ever since I seen him eating some, I been eating more and more. If I get over weight, I'm blaming him! LOL.
- L's talking in percentages. I'm not kidding, I've done this often before I knew about Death Note.
- L's thumb to mouth when thinking. - Same as I said about the percentages. Though I seem to do this lot more even when not thinking... it's a habit I've had ever since I could remember.
- L's slouch. Not just when I'm stood up, but also when I'm sitting. Many teachers have picked up on it and don't like it. Heheh.
- L's ability to not sleep for days. I'm pretty sure he can go on for much MUCH longer than me though.
- Mello's/L's Chocolate - I love the crack noise it makes. Ever since I seen them do that, I try do it whenever I'm eating chocolate.

There's probs more... but I can't think of any right now.

well, suddenly i love apples, i write sometimes like Light and im sitting like L, i have twilred my hair before i reafed death note so i contuniue with it. and hm.. i like white sweaters more. lol

yes alotlike almost every random habit they have i have now too lol

Since I started watching reading Death Note I started to sit like L-sama (especially while reading the manga) and when I eat a Potato Chip I say..(I'll take a Potato Chip....and Eat It) some things in this anime are contagious XD

1. I eat chips like Light.
2. I write like Light often. (it drives my teacher insane.. XD)
3. I occasionally sit like L.
4. Before I even started watching DN I bite my thumb when I think...but, I only just noticed after seeing L do it.. O_o'
5. I do many normal things over-dramatically. XD
6. Whenever I get good marks or something goes the way I wanted to, I say.. "All according to plan." :3

i tend to act like mello and matt sometimes but mostly near

I sit like L

I find myself craving sweets, I eat apples a lot now, and I write very dramatically whenever I'm alone. And I will never eat a potato chip the same way again.

But I sat like L before I even watched Death Note. *is proud of self*

Yes, i started talking deductively like L when he is focused.

A hundred times yes. I've been sitting in L's crouch position more often and eat sweets more often. I tend to bite my nails way too much and please tell me I'm not the only one who eats apples almost 24/7.

Very much.

-I have many, many quirks, but probably just did not notice until I began watching Death Note.
-I often speak in L's style, from word-choice to monotone
-I will twirl my hair, as well, when I am anxious or distracted.
-I will deduce things, often, just as L would.
-Sometimes, I laugh just like Light......I'm so ashamed!

Not only that, but I am also similar to L's character in several ways. I am antisocial and have a lot of quirks, I fail to take care of myself properly, I eat normally only one regular meal a day, but lots of sweets throughout, and I will always find my tone of voice sauntering into his own.

His personal traits have rubbed off on me.

It seems as if you are easily influenced by what you see around you. Don't worry, I'm like that, too. I sat like L before I saw Death Note, but now I do it even more since I watched it! Maybe you used to do those things all the time, but just didn't notice it.

Eating potato chips and writing like Light, sitting like L. And eating more cake. Lots of cake.

I sit like L, and at lunch with my friends i sometimes go "I'll take a potato chip......AND EAT IT!!!!" and we all laugh because most of us have watched Death Note.

I have always twirled my hair like near even before I watched the anime an now I am becoming a lot smarter an thinking harder

Near- I used to twirl my hair whenever I was tired, thinking or bored but i stopped doing it as often but sometimes I catch myself doing it again.

Light- I have always had Light manic laugh. It creeps people out and I get called a manic or psycho sometimes.

And then there's L-Sweets have always been a big thing for me, but I have picked up on it more now. Sometimes I accidentally sit like him and then get yelled at. >.< And I often hold phones, cups etc. like L and people give me weird looks. I now also have a bad habit of slouching, putting my thumb in my mouth while thinking and not sleeping. I was always told how good my posture is until I started watching Death Note. Sleep is almost nonexistent in my life now. I used to get around 8h of sleep a night and now I get less than that in a week! It starting to make people worry about me.. Hehehe..

Yes well I have been effected as well. I have caught myself acting like L talking,sitting,acting,dressing, and my intelligence has gone up as well. Eating sweets is kind of a 24/7 thing I did before I watched death note. I have also been able to control my emotions. It's surprising because being a girl I usually can't do that so no u are not alone. X )

well, just like you, i've started twirling my hair WITHOUT NOTICING THAT I'M DOING IT (and i never used to do it before), XD
I've also started sitting like L for some reason ...a lot
My friends tease me about having my thumb in my mouth most of the time
I fell in love with cake and sweets all over again
I throw rage fits like Light too at times D:
I've become even more infatuated with chocolate!

I find it very funny because I twirled my hair even before I watched it, I also sat like L all of the time, and people thought it was very weird lol. But I have developed habits from watching it, I eat more junk food then I did before and I hold things really weirdly. If I'm eating a chip I hold it between my middle finger and pointer finger in my right hand. I also hold my toothbrush really weirdly lol xD and I get into moods where I think about really deep stuff like what I would do in a world where the death note existed. I've realized I'm actually a lot like light other then the fact that I don't use people for my own personal gain but I do believe the wrong should be punished and the right should be rewarded. I don't hate any of the characters. Sometimes I don't like a character but I don't fully hate them. A lot of people hate Light but I can't even hate him due to the fact that I understand why he does what he does.

I kind of have always twirled my hair (cuz it's bot that uncommon a thing to do), but, when my brother and I eat chips or anything similar to them we usually say "I'll take a potato chip, and eat it!" just like Light does that one timeI do crave sweets all the time but that's just cuz I'm a kid (14 years old), so it makes sense.
p.s. I 💜 Lawliet and Near

Just by sitting like L does not mean your deductive skills will increase 40%. Remember, L is a liar. Clearly, L has odd habits and he made up lies so that he would no longer get questioned about it anymore.
L's sitting posture is the Third World Squat by the way.
I often sit like L in school and at home due to the fact that I found the Third World Squat a very comfortable sitting posture. It also helps me remove any distracting thoughts when doing assignments and when I am in deep thinking.
L claims he can't sit normally because his deductive skills would drop by 40%.
Well, I can't do assignments or work efficiently without listening to music with my earbuds. It is just how L can't use his deductive skills efficiently unless he sits the way he does.
So, with these assumptions, I believe this is why L has his ' odd ' way of sitting.

After I watched death note I slouch just like L and sitting like L and biting my thumb just like him makes me think faster so I sit like him whenever I need to think.Also I had became more calm and emotionless. Also I started to like cakes more and wished I could eat sweets and cakes for meals everyday.

Yeah, I've developed some really strange habits. There were some I already had (Sitting like L whenever I can, constantly eating sweets, chewing my thumb's fingernail), and some that I only got after watching Death Note. Like, I started twirling my hoodie string, since I have really short hair or the ribbon-bookmark-thingy that's on some books. I've been told that I'm usually really perceptive and observant, and that I always seem to use some kind of deduction skill, even around people I know, and I've found myself starting to actively think about it. I also stay awake for DAYS, and when I sleep, it's the way L sits, just with a blanket around my shoulders.

I used to sit like L when I was a kid, chew fingernails, loved chocolate, looked edgy while writing....but not because of death note.

But my love for sugarcubes has increased

I,most of the times,sit like l on chair,bed,even inside car if the road would have been bumpy.
I think like Light Yagami to be honest I thought like him since ages.

I sit, hold things, act, and eat like L. I'm not a fan of potato chips, but I'll solve equations with my RIGHT hand, and write with my LEFT! I'll take a POTATO chip...AND! EAT IT! also my tennis coach asked how I manage to sit the way I do. BTW, I crouch like L. And it's and not even purposeful. to top things off, L's birthday is WAY to close to mine. (like 2 or 3 days off)

My L moments: almost every moment of my being

My Light moments: when I'm angry. or eating chips. Also when I don't like someone

Well, not going to lie I’ve always sat like L even before death note and was a deep thinker and did what he did before I have seen death note, I am aiming those thoughts on autism since I have it, it’s probably why I did those thing because of autism, therefore watching Death Note hasn’t affected me in any ways.

Yes, actually I have. For some reason, I twirl my hair when I'm thinking logically and whenever I think about Death Note, I get the impulsive urge to sit in my chair like L. Not to mention I have an INTENSE love for apples and sometimes when I'm angry I'll be all like DANG IT! (As I understand that's called a Light fit). It's just really weird, and since I've seen that show, I've been going back and playing with my old toys more. I don't know, it's really weird.
