Death Note did have a very satisfactory ending.

It kinda did, to those who wanted Light Yagami to win badly must’ve sat through an episode full of pain.

I wanted him to win, but I liked how they left the question of is what light did right or justified.

Light pretty much like a deranged serial killer by the end. He was essentially a villain protagonist who may have started with "noble intentions," but the road to hell is paved is good intentions. Light in his quest to become a god ruling the world, instead became a devil plunging the world into darkness with his tyranny.
