    Death Note, The Anime!

    First episode aired October 3rd!

    Trailer

    Opening Sequence

    Ending Sequence

    Must watch.

    Strangely enough, if anyone here watches Ouran High School Host Club, Tamaki's voice actor managed to get the part of Light. That should be interesting when it's all serious. I'll be imagining Light suddenly being a cheerful idiot. XD

      It's based off of the popular manga.

      A bored shinigami (death god) drops his notebook on earth. Basically, if you write the name of someone into the book, that person will die. A college student finds the notebook, called a Death Note, and starts using it to rid the world of criminals, but the police realize that all the criminal deaths are far too coincidental to be isolated incidents.

      So, they start trying to hunt this kid down, even though they have no idea who he is or how the people are dying. They send the world's greatest detective after him.

      It's a fabulous story, and now we also get to enjoy it in animated form.

      I highly recommend that you try the manga, though. The art is fantastic and it's a brilliant idea. I can never put a new volume down when I open it!

        SWEET!!!!

        I knew they were waiting until the manga finished before starting the anime. And yes, the manga does indeed rock worlds.

            It's fantastic!

            I watched the first episode raw, and Light's voice actor does a fabulous job. I'm not terribly fond of Light, but with that actor my liking of him went up a little bit. For those of you who have seen Ouran, I now know that Tamaki's voice actor is capable of a pretty scary psychotic laugh. I tip my hat to him.

            I think I'm going to start calling Ryuuk "old fish eyes" or "fish face", because that's how he's always looked to me. >.>

            Not only is the anime out, but the second live action movie comes out at the end of this year too! The first was released on June 17 and I believe the sequel is set to release in either October or November. I'd love to get my hands on that too, but so far no luck in finding it.

                I see the Japanese fascination with apples continues.

                    I didn't care for it but it didn't kill it for me or anything. I'm used to odd music for OP/ED themes.

                      Konami's making a Death Note game on DS. Anyone know enough japanese to make some sense of the site? There's a link to a trailer at the bottom but you can't really tell anything about the game from it.

                      I just finished Vol. 6. This story is complicated. Thank goodness we've got Misa for comic relief now, lol. And Matsuda, stupid Matsuda. I hope all the DeathNote stuff (movie, anime, game) gets brought here eventually.

                          Interesting... I wonder how that will affect the fansubs.

                          I got volume #9 during the last week of December.

                          Things are getting so interesting. I couldn't believe some of the twists they added for #9. Light is such a cold-hearted bastard.

                            I didn't know 9 was out. Have to hit the bookstore tomorrow.

                              Spoilers for the manga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!









                              I thought that Light at least had some kindness towards his family for what he did to save his sister, but I guess I was wrong. I guess Ruyuk is the only likable character other than Misa now
