The reference to L from death note is almost laughable. The only thing they share in common is an initial. Otherwise they're two completely separate examples of an obsessed investigator archetype, which has been around long before death note. Not only that but L was a far more contrived and all around poorly written character.

It's almost insulting to mention a character from an alright anime (and that's if you don't acknowledge the second half, which turns it from alright to holy shit who could stand this) on a wiki for one of the greatest shows of all time, leagues above anything death note accomplished besides stagnate and taint the goth culture even further.

If you just have to put up anime references to everything at least make sure they're relevant. For the sake of everyone's sanity don't pick a mediocre anime everyone knows about and doesn't care much about.
