Currently as it stand this Answer does not answer the question. to avoid down-votes i highly suggest you expand on what you are referring to. you have demonstrated that you know to use spoilers so you can use those to hide spoiler information, however keep in mind that the question is addressing [Death Note 2: The Last Name](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Note_2:_The_Last_Name)

<p>I just noticed something. So in death note the last name, L got the death note, after he watched Misa killing criminals with the death note. He then replaced her death note with a fake one. But here's the problem. L said, that they made fake news that the criminals Misa ''killed'' died, but Misa should've seen that they were still alive, because a rule in the death note states, that a person who's dead, doesn't have a name or a lifespan above their head in a picture. </p>

<p>Rule XXXIX: </p>

<p>Humans that have traded for the eye power of a god of death cannot see the name or life span of humans who have already passed away by looking at their photos.</p>
