Spoiler :
According to the directors' cut anime movie though, Light becomes a shinigami. No nothingness, nor heaven/hell crap. Makes perfect sense.
Spoiler :
Makes perfect sense to me. I mean really it doesn't take too much thought to figure out that if he doesn't go to heaven or hell, then what else is he gonna do. :P
I love to wear absurd and totally impractical garments. What's more, I derive great pleasure from spending time with women for no apparent reason.

That's really interesting if 'nothingness' is becoming a Shinigami. Although that's never stated in the manga which, for me, is the best source for information about any series.

Unless the manga was based on the anime or the anime was based on a visual novel and a manga was made seperately and is based on the visual novel and not the anime. Also works with light novels.

If there was no heaven or hell then what was the point of him telling Light that users of the note don't go to heaven or hell in the first place? Sounds like a plothole to me. Ryuk wanted light to use the note. Why would he give a reason not to if the reason had no bearing?
Spoiler :
Maybe he did it for the lulz.

It really made me sad when...
Spoiler :
...Light's father died. He was a good cop, and a good man, through and through.
Light is really starting to tick me off, though. He doesn't care WHO dies to achieve his ends. The fact that he would kill so many innocents without a second though makes me wanna punch him sometimes...
