    Most of us know who Beyond Birthday is, apon reading LABB, and most of us know that he was born with shinigami eyes. I was reading How to Read 13 the other day, and looking across the shinigami. As I skimmed it, I noticed a couple things about Justin. You all know him, the jeweled skeleon who appears frequently in the shinigami realm, and is actually viewed as moreso one of the rulers of Shinigami?

    I noticed, first off, his name -- Armonia Justin Beyondormason. It has the word Beyond in it. Nothing abnormal about that. However, I laugh at the fact that he has, basically, no eyes.
    I know a lot of shinigami are like that, with no eyes, but this just sorta, I dunno, fascinated me. It seems to likely that he's somehow related to Beyond. Or, from a realistic point of view, that he COULD be.

    this is a very interesting theory.

    but then maybe. Just maybe, thedeath note ryuk dropped could be Beyond if he was a shinigami. Because Ryuk dropped a death note and it wasnt his, it was shiddoh, but shiddoh didnt go get it for like 3 years and now from this discovery... Shiddoh could of been doing something else. Heck if someone i know took my DN i would get it right away. but i have a feeling Beyond may be connected to it.

    Beyond Birthday is one of the Wammy boys aka B. He became obbessed with L and wanted to surpass him instead of becoming his copy. He became a murder. You may read about him in Another Note the novel

    Yes; Beyond Birthday is a man who revered L and grew up as his second successor in Wammy's House. He basically went insane with the thought of surpassing L and became a serial killer who committed several murders in L.A. To bring him down, L hired Naomi Misora and she eventually ended up catching him. Beyond Birthday was arrested and put in jail, where he later died from a heart attack. It was believed to be the work of Kira.

    Beyond's name is derived from the fact that he was born with Shinigami eyes and has been able to see death from the moment he was conceived. His sanity most likely suffered greatly because of this fact.

    Appearence-wise, he looks identical for L other than the fact that his eyebags are unnatural, and he uses eyeliner, and that he has red eyes. Otherwise, in the novel he is described as looking exactly like L. Me and RA have him as our avatars<3

    But yeah, you should really read Another Note. It's M. Night Shamylan material xD

    He looks more like L in RA's avvy... Is it possible to read it online, or do I have to buy it?

    Best to buy it. I looked like everywhere and it's impossible to find on the internet. Cloest thing is a summary which totally ruins it

    As far as I know, it's not anywhere online. It's a lot better to just buy the novel.

    However, there are a couple detailed summaries up here. The translations aren't perfect, but are readable. But like I said, I'd just buy the actual novel. It's a lot funner to do that.

    It'd be with the Death Note manga, correct?

    Umm... no. Just click on the direct link I gave you. There's a list of summaries for each chapter...

    xD Ah.

    Hmm... it was by the manga for me, but I'd do a search on one of the computers just in case. It might be different depending on the store.

    Well, the Naruto, FMA, and Love Hina novels are in the manga section, so it would have to be there.
