Did Ryuk actually like Light in Death Note? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! There may be some spoilers in this post though, so proceed with caution! Now then, on with the post! So, did Ryuk actually like Light? Although that's a rather hard question to answer, the main reason Ryuk even found Light was because he was bored. It was the Death Note that led to their meeting, and it was one of the only things that kept Ryuk tied to Light. Along with this, the reason Ryuk didn't mind hanging around Light is because he found him interesting. To Ryuk, Light's quest to become the "God Of The New World" was simply a way to keep him entertained. He liked seeing what would happen next for Light, but that doesn't necessarily mean he liked him. In fact, he didn't seem to be very attached to any of the characters in the series. He even killed Light at the end of the series just so he wouldn't have to watch him live out the rest of his life in jail. To Ryuk all of the events of the series were simply a way to entertain himself. So, I would say Ryuk didn't really like Light, or any of the other characters in the series. He just liked to watch them to keep himself entertained. But, these are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you guys still enjoyed this blog post! As a little bonus, here's a picture of Ryuk. Enjoy!
