Ep. 29: Light trades Death Note ownership to Misa, leading to a raid where Soichiro confronts Mello before dying.

Light manipulates Mello’s mafia into mailing their hideout address using the Death Note, which Sidoh spots and pursues. Light then informs Ryuk that he will relinquish his Death Note ownership to borrow Misa’s. The following day, Misa, impersonating Kira, contacts the investigation team to surrender her Death Note. She reveals that most of Mello’s mafia members will die on November 10, suggesting this as the optimal time to locate the stolen notebook. Upon receiving the second Death Note, Soichiro makes a deal with Ryuk to gain the shinigami eyes. On the specified date, the team raids Mello’s facility. Soichiro encounters Mello and reads his true name, Mihael Keehl. However, before he can write the name in the recovered Death Note, Soichiro is shot. Mello escapes using explosives, and Soichiro dies in a hospital, comforted by the knowledge that his son Light cannot be Kira because he can see Light’s lifespan. Light subsequently returns Sidoh’s lost Death Note to him.
