just realized Yoshikage Kira’s name is literally wordplay for “Shadow Killer” or “Peaceful Killer” or however the frick you’d properly interpret it

(the kanji in “Kira” (キラ) is actually one letter off from “Killer” (キラー), and “Yoshikage” (吉景) stands for “Peaceful”, “Justice”, “Righteousness” or “Morality”, if you were to split it up, “Yoshi” (ヨシ) means “Good luck”, “good”, “virtuous”, “respectable”, while “Kage” means “Shadow” (影) or “Other side”. AKA “Kira” is the only entirely correct thing in his name, whilst the other half of his name is only partially correct, since he lacks righteousness or morale, virtuouality and respectability, atleast if you know his “other side”.)

Tl;dr:
