11. I just started reading this series. I have only managed to find random volumes so I haven't got the full picture yet, but so far I like Misa. From the way the fandom talked about her, I was expecting her to be an eartly incarnation of the God of Stupid, but she's not. She's just got bad taste in men and is, um, somewhat easily led. Not crimes. Sure, she's not as sharp as L or Light, but considering they're both supposed to be freakishly intelligent, all that means is that Misa isn't a genius.



That doesn't mean she's so moronic she can't tie her shoes mind because hey, idiot fangirls? life ain't black and white. Most people aren't genuises. I'm guessing she comes in for all this hate because she's an attractive blonde girl who loves the male lead and thus gets in the way of the yaoi or the Mary Sue fantasies - fangirls can be predictable like that.

I think people hate Misa because she acts like Light's appendage. Having another DN user--and a woman at that--could have really shaken things up. It could have been a fascinating three way match of intellectual wills; Misa didn't even have to be as smart as L and Light, just more unpredictable. Instead she's Light's plaything, and she never did anything as clever as finding out his identity.

I don't hate Misa. I don't even dislike her--she makes me laugh. But I do get dissapointed when I think of what she could have been if the author had been bold enough not to make her into Light's cheerleader.
