In Tokyo, the Kira case emerged a few months ago (almost a year) as a series of unexplained heart attacks affecting criminals. Kira's name then surfaced as a mysterious killer who murders criminals and anyone who stands in his way of purifying the world, proclaiming himself the god of the new world. Meanwhile, L, the world greatest detective, and Light, the prime suspect, become increasingly obsessed with Guest. L and Light are somewhat rivals in the case, and in Guest's interest as well. Both L and Light become incredibly jealous when one of them gets more of Guest's attention.

He is fluent in six languages: English, Japanese, French, Italian, and two others.
