Al Lawlight, better known as L, is considered the best detective in the world, investigating the case of a serial killer nicknamed "Kira". Al is a young man with a thin build, pale skin, disheveled and long black hair, as well as dark eyes. One of his most noticeable features is the bags under his eyes due to insomnia. He is wearing blue jeans and a white long-sleeved sweatshirt. He almost never wears shoes or socks, preferring to walk barefoot, even in public, when he came to Light Yagami's school barefoot and sat on a bench, not bothering to put on shoes even before going on stage. Al is quite secretive and communicates with the world only through his assistant Watari. He never shows his face to the world, using only the capital letter L. After meeting with the Japanese task force, he asks its members to call him "Ryuzaki or Ryuga" as an additional security measure. None of the members of the task force ever found out his real name. Many people, when looking at his disheveled and sluggish appearance, doubt his powers of deduction, although in fact Al has a wonderful mind. Al tends to doubt everything he imagines, is extremely meticulous and analytical. He is good at deceiving his opponents and is willing to go to extreme lengths to solve the case. He also has a dry sense of humor and is not averse to making sarcastic remarks to people. Although he is usually polite to some (such as task force member Shuichi Aizawa), L can sometimes seem condescending. Using all sorts of tricks, misinformation, omissions, knowledge of the human psyche, and sometimes information from criminal circles, Al lures the alleged killer into a false sense of security. Thanks to his method of analysis, Al always calculates the probability of a killer appearing. He likes sweet and unusual combinations of dishes, such as meat and melon. He holds objects with his index finger and thumb, raising his hand up. It is also interesting that in the manga, El is sitting in a meditation position while
