Anime and nerd fans often call Light Yagami “evil” because of his lies, manipulation, and gaslighting, but rarely apply that same criticism to superheroes—especially Superman. Clark Kent does the same things Light does, just less skillfully. Maintaining a secret identity means constantly lying and manipulating people. Superman justifies it by claiming moral superiority, but if his son Jonathan were a superhero who lied and manipulated his parents the same way Light Yagami does Clark would be furious—even though he’s guilty of the same thing.

          nope, is the music good and not poppy slop like most other musicals, and if the music is good, is it actually funny at the same time?

          That’s what I find it difficult to enjoy about musicals, either it’s unfunny or really broad humour or the music is too shitty.
