The first part of Death Note focused on the clash between Light Yagami and Detective L. Using psychology, mental attacks, tactics and weapons, the two enlivened an exchange that has remained in the history of the manga. In the second half, however Light Yagami found new people in the way between him and the creation of the ideal world.
One of them is Near, an albino boy who was an admirer of L. for a long time. He grew up in the same orphanage as the detective and, together with Mello, becomes one of the main characters in the new action against Kira. How old is Near during Death Note?? Let’s look at all the steps to reconstruct the different ages.
During the first fight between light and L, i.e. before the time jump, Near is 13 years old. Years passed becomes the main opponent at the age of 17-18while we check him out at the end of work between the ages of 18-19. In the OneShot after the series, Near is 21 years old, while in the self-contained chapter “Never Complete” he is 27 years old.
In the most recent Death Note oneshot, which takes place between 2013 and 2019, he is 22 and 28 years old, respectively. Near is also included in collateral products such as the light novel L: Change the World, in which he was 8 years old and Death note: New generation, a live-action miniseries in which the albino detective is 19 years old. All oneshots were summarized in the Death Note Short Stories in Japan.
