I didn't understand the ending and I swear it's because Near explained everything! I hate that kid, but he talked about how Mikami had messed up, and it he had followed Light's instructions he wouldn't have lost. But I'm confused, I didn't understand anything!<--- spoilers in white, highlight to read.

It's because the SPK didn't know that the Death Note Mikami was carrying was a fake, they thought it was real. So when he he killed Takada, he went to the bank and used the real Death Note. Then, they were able to switch the pages in Mikami's REAL Death Note with normal paper, so when Mikami wrote down everyone's name but Light's it proved Light was Kira.

The reason why Mikami messed up and if he had followed Light's instructions was because Light said "Don't write in the real Death Note". Mikami thought that Light was unable to kill Takada, so he took matters into his own hand and tried to save (but actually was the fall of) Light.

I'm not sure if that's a sensical explanation x_x

But I have a question: Where do Shinigami come from? Is there a limited number of them? Can the King make more?  

[Uwajima]

Hello, I was wondering this for a long while. There is a picture on the interweb that shows Light and behind him all of the shinigami:

I was wondering, what are all of the names of the shinigami?
Here's what I got so far:
Ryuk
Rem
Jealous
and then there was that little one on the left. They say his name like maybe once when talking about shinigami falling in love with humans. I forgot his name.

But that still leaves three more.

And please, before you post, make sure that what you say is true. I don't care about speculation
