Light Yagami's actions in the anime "Death Note" have a significant impact on his sense of identity and purpose. Initially, Light believes that his actions of using the Death Note to rid the world of criminals are justified and that he is serving a greater purpose of creating a utopia free of evil. However, as he continues to use the Death Note and becomes more consumed by power, his sense of identity becomes blurred. He begins to question whether he is truly a "savior" or if he has become a villain himself. This internal conflict ultimately leads to a loss of his original sense of purpose and a descent into darkness as he is consumed by his own ambition and desire for control.
