Character Description: Mail Jeevas
Matt smokes... a lot. He absolutely LOVES video games, and carries a PGS (portable game system) around in his pocket everywhere he goes! You never see him take off his goggles in the series. Although he only shows up in 11 or 12 panels in the manga, he is still an important character. He shows up in the anime only briefly as well. He gets shot down and that is the last you see of him.
Matt, Near, and Mello all grew up in the Wammy house, and though Matt hardly shows up at all in either the manga or anime, he does contribute to the Kira case. It implies that Matt and Mello are very close. Though it's vague, somewhere in the series it shows how humble Mello is to Matt.
In the bonus 13th volume of the manga, we learn that Matt was the third successor to become L after Near and Mello. He's a computer and technological expert that used to go to Wammy's House with Near and Mello. In the manga, Matt is introduced by working with Mello on the Kira case.
A picture of Matt without his goggles is also in the 13th volume. In the anime, Matt's hair is a brownish color, while in the manga many fans like to believe it is red. I have never seen an official colored manga drawing of Matt, thus I cannot confirm what his real hair color is in the manga.
Matt is nineteen years old. He was 14 at the time of L-sama's death and then four years passed, making him eighteen years old at that time. However, he doesn't show up immediately, and turns nineteen before he is actually brought in by Mello. Matt dies on January 26th, 2010 at the age of 19 (less than a week away from his 20th birthday).

uwaaaahhhh! *sobsob* Matty! we miss you! *cry*
seriously, Matt's my second favorite character (L's first). why did he have to die? he should have worn a bullet-proof vest, or something! I mean, really, who goes up against armed body guards without some sort of protection? still... they shouldn't have shot him. he was giving himself up, for cryin out loud! who shoots someone that's surrendering?!
*ahem* yes, well... anyway, and for all the people asking about the red hair... since he was never given 'official' colors until the anime came out, someone probably drew a fan pic of him before then and gave him red hair - other people saw the pic, liked the colors, and... well, it stuck. personally, i like the red hair better! ^-^ ... show more »

I kinda think Matt looks like Light, without his goggles.
In the anime of course ^^

I desperately wish there was more of him in the anime and manga. Mello needed more of his friend...so did we ;)

I think he and Mello are in love. At least they're together in heaven. Still. I don't think he should have died either.
