The police detectives are disappointed but then a string of mysterious heart attack deaths begin occurring in several Japanese corporations.

Death Note, Vol. 5
Date undefinedWhile perhaps not the most dramamtic or serious arch of Death Note, Vol. 5 is perhaps the most enertaining and one of the more important. As Light loses his memories of being Kira after a deal with Ryuk and Rem he becomes an entirely different person. So much in fact befuddled L asks himself "Can people really disensemble this well?"
Still suspicious of Yagami Light L goes to yet another extreme on the investigation and chains the young man to his wrist. The ensuing stituation is one of tense harmony and frustration that sometimes breaks out into knock-down, drag-out fights between the two. However it is certain the two peers have never been closer both mentally and physically.
However there is now a new Kira even with Light and Misa devoid of their Death Note related memories. As Light comes closer to catching this new killer, will he ever regain his memories of being Kira?
Also, there's a delightful subplot where Matsuda jumps off a high balcony and lives. You should really read it just for that.
Death Note, Vol. 5
Date undefinedThe quality of this series continues.
L still suspects both Light and Misa of being Kiras, and as such is watching them. When other people starts to die he lets them out of captivity.
Light's father is rather stressed about the whole thing, and decides he can't be in the police to deal with it. L has him put his son and girlfriend to a serious test, as the corporate machinations of the current Kira continue.
