Six Death Notes were dropped in our world following the Six-Note Rule that was introduced in the manga. In the report of Zaikei News the rule states that 'Only six Death Notes are allowed to exist simultaneously in the human world. Of course, the Death Note in Shinigami's own possession does not count. Therefore, only six Shinigami that have passed on their Death Note to humans can stay in the human world.'
According to Anime News Network, new charismatic figures, who inherited the DNA of Light (previously played Tatsuya Fujiwara) and the detective L (Ken'ichi Matsuyama), will emerge. The successors of the two geniuses will wage a war over six Death Notes on Earth.
