Light Yagami's actions in "Death Note" have a significant impact on the broader societal structures within the series. By using the Death Note to eliminate criminals, he initially gains support from the public and law enforcement as they see a decrease in crime rates. However, as Light's actions become more extreme and he starts targeting individuals beyond just criminals, it leads to a breakdown in societal norms and values. The emergence of the mysterious "Kira" figure creates fear and paranoia among the general population, causing a shift in power dynamics and a loss of trust in institutions such as the police and legal system. Ultimately, Light Yagami's actions result in a destabilization of the societal structures within the world of Death Note.
