On another occasion, Ryuk asks Light if he wants to play Mario Golf (changed to "video games" in the anime), but receives no answer, since Light's bedroom is bugged with microphones and rigged with cameras. Ryuk is fond of video games, first shown in the omake eight-panel comic series, where he asks Light for a Silver Game Boy Advance SP for Christmas. He also states that he is shy around girls, revealed when Misa regains her memories and hugs Ryuk in excitement. He suffers certain symptoms of withdrawal if he goes too long without eating them, involving twisting himself up like a pretzel and doing handstands. Shinigami apples are withered and taste like sand, as he shows Misa at one point, which is why he prefers apples from the human world. Ryuk has a great fondness for apples, stating the addiction to be an equivalent of cigarettes and alcohol for humans. Ryuk is intelligent, but Light's ability to understand his desires easily makes him able to be manipulated. As his only purpose in dropping the notebook was because he was bored, most of his actions are primarily motivated by wanting to see something interesting, as he sees Light's use of the Death Note and the way humans react to it as truly entertaining.
At times, he withholds important information from Light and only assists him when he has something to gain from it. Though he finds Light interesting, he does not care whether Light lives or dies and does not actively assist him. Ryuk regards Light as "interesting," specifically due to his experiments and the loopholes he discovers regarding the Death Note's rules and instructions, occasionally discovering abilities of the notebook even Ryuk did not know existed. Ryuk is different from most Shinigami in that he does not want to simply pass time away in the Shinigami Realm but find something to relieve his boredom, and he is unaffected by the mocking he receives from other Shinigami for it. He has large, round yellow eyes with bright red irises and retractable feather-like wings on his back that enable him to fly. His limbs are abnormally long, and he wears rings on his fingers. He is extremely slim and has light-gray skin, almost blue-ish in color, with spiky black hair thin, blue-gray lips and sharp, pointed teeth.
