I am really concerned and confused by the decisions of shinigamis and as well the reasoning of Near and Mello in the mid of the series?! Dull, dumb and empty dialogs in the 3rd part, like the writers wanted to overcomplicate the story with unanswered questions and unspoken thoughts ? Just a pure unnecessary confusion! Plot holes? 95% of viewers just didn't notice at all, so many illogical and skipped explanations and reasons for some actions of characters. The rules that were made from the very beginning were just forgotten later like they never existed. Watched show many times, and the same questions remained.

First 20 episodes were pure state of art, 10/10, later it went so low
