[b]BOTH[/b] of course, believe me, you have got to stop comparing the two. Both of them are good in different ways. I love Near and I also love L. They're both amazing, because without the help of what L started, Near won't be able to finish the case. And without Near knowing it, Kira would still be alive by now and probably still killing and believing that he's some kind of God But hey, Near and L both share a special and unique quality.
