The last twenty-four annoying things about Death Note fan fiction

150. Smut fics that are written purely for smut; not bothering for a single sentence to even keep the characters in character.

151. First chapters that are 99% dialogue and you have no idea what's going on.

152. When first person perspective is used and every sentence starts with 'I'.

153. L and Light, in character, in the Death Note-verse... baking a cake.

154. When an author seems proud to bash on a character.

155. When L is written as unintelligent and naïve.

156. When Roger is written as a pedophile/creeper.

157. When canon characters are given the attention of less than one paragraph out of six chapters of an OC story.

158. That the times during when L, A, and BB were together at Wammy's orphanage are ignored, even though there is so much plot potential.

159. When Mello's real name, Mihael, is spelt Michael.

160. When Near is written as cute, naive, intellectually-challenged and adorable.

161. When 'Death Note' isn't capitalized.

162. When L's name isn't capitalized and you read l as a capital 'i'.

163. Mary Sue's that refer to L using cheesy pet names like 'Panda chan'... and he takes it.

164. When the whole back story of an OC is crammed into one chapter.

165. When a Mary Sue is a long lost sister/cousin of L.

166. When Light is written as OOCly nice.

167. " Random spaces that are placed after quotation marks"

168. When Soichiro Yagami is written as outright homophobic, even though he is described as being the most moral character in Death Note by its creators.

169. When random time-lapses indicated only by headings occur more than four times in a chapter.

170. When a Mary Sue has natural multi/abstract colored hair.

171. When a Mary Sue has natural pink/red/purple/abstract colored eyes.

172. When a Mary Sue and Mello almost instantaneously become best friends forever.

173. Kiyomi Takada's motives for joining Light (Kira) are never explored.

174. When L never sleeps at all, even though Matsuda exclaimed that he had seen L sleeping (in the exact same position that he sits in) early on in the anime, and that he is also seen asleep in this way in the live action movie.


Author note:

And this... is the end.

I have run out of annoying things to point out about Death Note fan fiction.

Thanks for sticking it out this long. I might do a bonus chapter for reviewers who have things that annoy them which haven't been included on this list so that they can vent and remain anonymous (or not) if they wish.

Thanks for reading, I guess? and to any of you who have responded.

Shout out to DEG if you're still reading, and WhiteLadyDragon whose comments were awesome.
