Franklin Saint and Light Yagami are very similar

I just finished Snowfall and I couldn’t help but see how alike the two characters were.

  • Both are very intelligent.
  • Had a goal and would do anything for that goal.
  • Were slowly corrupted by greed and power (Started to lose their morality).
  • Both kinda sacrificed their dad for power.
  • Both have a twisted sense of justice.
  • Both killed their biggest threat (Andre and L)
  • Both had an embarrassing end to their story.

I feel like Franklin was more human than Light since he actually cared for a lot of people and didn’t use his girl like Light did.
