Yea, I know that the Death Note can kill people before their time, but Yagami Soichiro died a 'natural' death... he wasn't killed by a Death Note.

In the last episode Matsuda blames Light for causing Soichiro's death... BUT Soichiro didn't have much time left to live anyway. Soichiro took the 'Eye-Deal' and halved his lifespan. So the time it takes from the Eye-Deal to his Death x2 = His remaining natural lifespan. Not very much.

What I'm saying is that this means noone in the story's world is responsible for anyone's death. Everyone has a set time to die that can only be interfered with a Death Note. It makes you wonder if people actions are also influenced by this lifespan, if everything is just fated to happen. (Except for anything Death Note induced).
