Light Yagami’s Participation in Olympics Sparks Concern Among Fans for Other Teams

Ever since the beginning of the 2024 Olympics, a photo of a Japanese football coach has been circulating on the internet. What’s interesting is that the photo has been mistakenly labeled with the name of Death Note’s notorious protagonist, Light Yagami.

To add to the situation, just like in the anime where the protagonist is shown writing in the Death Note, the Light Yagami at the Olympics could also be observed writing in a notepad.

In truth, the image has been altered to include Japan’s football coach, Hajime Moriyasu. Additionally, the photo is from 2022 and is most likely from the FIFA World Cup, as indicated by the graphics resembling those used in the Qatar World Cup.

How Fans Reacted to Light Yagami in the 2024 Olympics
