@DarkKnightDetective: So you're telling me that somehow Batman is going to deduce Light as Kira, despite him being a normal person coming into Gotham? Light doesn't walk around with a light on his head saying he kills people. Its more likely for Batman to be figured out, since its common knowledge Batman's parents were killed, he is the richest person in Gotham, Bruce publicly endorses Batman, etc. Light in the manga was able to deduce things with a lot less information, with all that information I posted above, it wouldn't that difficult for him to figure it out. Batman on the other hand wouldn't know who is killing criminals, since criminals die all the time in Gotham City. There would be a list of people that Batman would suspect before he even thought of Light. Batman doesn't know who comes and out of Gotham City on a daily basis, Light is literally a face in a crowd. Bruce's attention would focused on something else, since Batman, first off, wouldn't know about Light's death note, nor how it works. These criminals are dying, either by heart attack or through some other elaborate means that Light can come up with in his journal. Batman would be totally stumped by this and for the most part at first glance, wouldn't think it was magic or anything outside of science, and thus would lead to many different conclusions. All Light needs to do is figure Batman's identity. While Batman has to start his investigation from scratch. Its a race against time which quite frankly, Batman won't win.
