Been a while since I watched Death Note, but did Light brutally murder people? I thought it was mostly heart attacks, which was the default way for someone to die unless otherwise specified.

Even if he hadn't caused a variety of deaths in a variety of ways, I think causing a variety of heart attacks still counts as brutally murdering people
I've never had a heart attack so idk how to gauge if it's a brutal way to die or not. I'll assume it's not the best way to go lol
I think funnily enough heart attack was meant as a catch-all kind death for people that was the authors first thought to just move past that hurdle. Heart attacks are definitely not the least harmful way to die, well, it depends on the type of heart attack. Certain aneurysms might be more painless. But overall it's a bit of a hand wave.
The elaborate bus jacking was pretty violent. I think he also had some prisoners do things like write messages in their own blood when he was testing the notebook out.
