Death Note The Musical
kerry16 for Rem
While Ryuk takes amusement in everything in the Human World, Rem is almost the exact opposite, viewing most humans with contempt. Also, while Ryuk is ambivalent to Light's success or failure, Rem actively assists Misa. This makes her equally as guilty as Ryuk of not displaying 'proper' traits for a Shinigami to have. She is even willing to sacrifice her life to defend Misa, as evidenced by her threat to kill Light should Misa die before her time. For Misa's sake, however, she still assists Light in his schemes. Her voice should be elegant. This role has a lot of singing and voice lines.

"Try as I will, I just don't understand it. Love is for mortals and fools. Never turns out quite the way that you planned it. So why do you break all the rules?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieFsUj1XHGI [1:07-1:38]
"When love comes, it takes you by surprise. You see things through someone else's eyes. When love comes, you will never be the same. It scares you, still you hope it stays forever. When love comes." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOHpErei4Yk [0:55-1:29]
