He was meant to be this emotion heavy character, basically the opposite of Near. But they killed him off in like 7 episodes of the Anime and about 40 minutes in on the compilation movies. (Which didn't include Matt's death, despite me being told it included all deaths.)

I have two more episodes left so don't spoil it for me!

I'm sure I would have understood Mello more if I had read the manga.
