the younger of L's two successors, raised in Wammy's House—Watari's orphanage for gifted children in Winchester, England. After L's death, Near begins his investigation of the Kira case, gathering evidence over a period of four years. Near takes his findings to the President of the United States and reveals himself to be the true successor of L. Soon after, Near becomes the head of the Special Provision for Kira and continues the hunt for Kira. build, gray eyes, and short, shaggy platinum blonde hair which he often plays with. He is only seen wearing a white, long-sleeved pajama top and white pajama pants. Near is very intelligent, although his childish appearance and demeanor can cause others, such as David Hoope, to question his abilities. He has an obsession with solving complex problems and views an investigation as solving a puzzle. He is highly observational and was once seen piecing together a puzzle that was almost entirely colored white. He is proficient when it comes to multitasking and is able to monitor multiple computer screens at once. Near also appears to be ambidextrous, playing darts with his left hand and stacking dice with his right. Despite his genius abilities, Near has low social knowledge and is bad at interacting with others. he is only able to display his true deductive powers when he has the support of his members. Near is distant from people because he is sensitive. Near is rather codependent. Near is very calm and stable, He is also rather devious and isn't above using tactics that are "barely within the law," as he "values results above all else." Although a seemingly straight-faced individual, Near will often smirk when getting something right. With extremely childlike interests, his surroundings always have toys, dice, or darts strewn about. Even though he is only playing, piecing together a patterned puzzle starting out of nowhere and the like easily shows a sample of his abilities and intelligence. Normally, his fixation with toys is light, but he does seem to have favorites, such as the toys he took with him when escaping the SPK headquarters while it was under attack by Hitoshi Demegawa and other Kira supporters. Three years after the main story, Near takes an interest in building Tarot card stacks. Of course, these structures are far beyond normal size, easily covering an entire room. It appears that Near would despise anyone who knocks down these structures, accidentally or intentionally. He also seems to have a love for dice. Although Near is always surrounded by toys, few of them are electronic. Most of his toys are the types that need to be moved manually, such as his action figures, darts, and dolls. His electronic toys include his remote-control rubber ducks and a battery-powered train. However, despite his childish interests and activities, he seems to be the most mature in realistic compared to Light, L, and Mello, when it comes to his ideals, with a very pragmatic point of view on justice, being an existentialist. Near calls the Task Force and asks them to meet him at the Yellow Box Warehouse in order to enact his final plan of exposing Light as Kira. Shortly after, Mello kidnaps Kiyomi Takada, resulting in Mello's death. Mikami then proceeds to write Takada's name using the real notebook. This action results in Gevanni finding the real notebook, then switching it with an exact replica. However, Near makes no changes to his plans for the meeting. meeting commences, and, just as Near plans, Mikami attempts to write down the names of everyone. Light thinks that he won as he had actually had a fake. However, thanks to Mello's actions, Near's plan worked. Since everyone except Light's name was written, Light is exposed as Kira. Near explains the entire situation and how Mello aided him before declaring that he and Mello, together, were capable of surpassing L. In a desperate attempt to regain control of the situation, Light confesses and has a speech about how beneficial Kira is to the world, but Near refutes this by stating that morality is subjective and Kira, killing people and forcing them to follow one path, is unjust in the eyes of many. After Light tries to kill Near using a snippet he has, Touta Matsuda, enraged, shoots him, before he dies at the hands of Ryuk. Following Light's defeat, Near becomes the third L.
