6%% * AerithAndBob: Of the new shinigami we see, there's Arik, Ruoma, Muerte, and Greg.

11%% * BackForTheFinale: Almost everyone KJ met who isn't dead comes back for the final chapter.
12* BadassNormal: KJ grabs Ryuk and slams him up against the wall when he didn't tell him where Angela was. Who else has ever attempted to do that before, much less gotten away with it?

18%% * ContinuityNod: At least three references to what happened in the original Manga/DeathNote
19%% * ContrivedCoincidence: All over the place.

24* ExpositionFairy: Ryuk is this at times. Mostly near the beginning when he's telling KJ about Death Notes and Shinigami.
25* FateWorseThanDeath: Near comes to the conclusion the new Kira has this in store for him, since the new Kira knows who he is, has the Shinigami eyes and hasn't killed him yet. [[spoiler: He turns out to be right]].
26%% * FanCreatedOffspring: We learn KJ (OC) is Light (canon)'s orphaned son in the very first chapter.
27%% * FlashBack: Happens often. Sometimes resulting in a WholeEpisodeFlashback. See below.
28* FourthWallPsych: KJ seemingly asks the screen if it agrees with him and a second later we see that he actually just got up close to Ryuk's face.
29%% * GambitPileup: Happens near the end. You'd be surprised who comes out on top.
30* GoMadFromTheRevelation: Near seems to do this when he realizes [[spoiler: He held the actual Death Note in his hands some time ago and put it back]].

38%% * SarcasticConfession: In the finale, KJ tells Angela the truth and she doesn't believe him.
39%% * {{Shinigami}}: Of course.
40%% * Shout Out: Many.
41* StoryBreakerPower: KJ was born with eyes of the Shinigami. He could easily kill the one responsible for his father's death, but he has a better idea...
42* SwitchToEnglish: In the third chapter, KJ and Ryuk are [[TranslationConvention speaking in Japanese.]] That is until William talks to him in English. It's then assumed that English is used from then on.
43* TheTapeKnewYoudSayThat: The dvd the SPK get from the new Kira was split into two parts. Because he knew Near would get angry when he mentions how he [[spoiler: was reponsible for his wife's death]].
44%% * TitleDrop: "It was the hidden note!"
45* TranquilFury: When Near hears that the new Kira is responsible for [[spoiler: his wife's death]], he gets really angry.
