has anyone noticed that the characters parallel those of shakespears Julius ceaser ?
kira noble intent led astray and dies= Brutus noble intent also dies
ryuk sneaky behind the seens minipuating things by dropping the deathnote= casius the sneaky minipulitive dude who used brutus
L (the great) = ceasar both where great dudes who where killed because they where in the way and both where succeeded by there apprentices
mello = Marx Antony both died after there aggressive tactics failed
near= Octavius both succeeded there master and avenged them
i thought about this today and so far it seems to be pretty true give me ur thoughts please ^_^

I've never read Julius Cesar, but by the sounds of it, they are rather similar. I've already got this weird image of L with a laurel wreath around his head...

You know, it does kinda of sound like it and possibly could be a source of inspiration but really, most stories with great plot lines seemed to be based off of Shakespeare.
And don't feel bad, no one reads my thread either. >>

Y'know, I didn't really think about it until I reread it today. But it is very similar, just like the Lion King seems to be based off of Hamlet. :]
I think it's cool, though. Shakespeare's awesome, and I love his stories and plays.

It does seem loosely based on Julius Ceasar. I picked out Light and Brutus, even though Brutus isn't nearly the crazy b*****d that Light is.
I have not yet read a Shakespeare play that I've liked, and Julius Ceasar was probably the worst. The plots just don't interest me.

I see what you are getting at. But Caesar was thought to be either a Tyrant, or for the peasants. So I would not put L as Caesar. The only resemblances are the one you stated, and that they were for their people and tried helping them...
...I wonder if there were any stories like these in Roman times...
