To All Deathnote Fans! New Updates

[Ameatypie]

Hello there various and assorted Deathnote enthusiasts. You might have guessed that this is a thread devoted to discussing deathnote. Whats your favorite charcter? favorite episode? how do you rate the plot line? do you think there will be more Deathnote? post it all here! What do you think? Let me/us (us referring to the escapist forum users) know!

UPDATE: So from what i gather, we all think that the Deathnote anime is pretty exceptional. New question: What about the movies? What do YOU think of the deathnote movies? Let me know!
UPDATE2: While i guess talking about the movies was not very exciting - the thread seems to have started to focus on L and LIGHT, and their sleep patterns and such, so lets discuss that! Post away...

Um, first a Black Books thread, and now this?

Seriously, you don't have a high life expectancy around here if you keep this up.

Depart unless you want to discuss deathnote!

The caps are a bit of a put off. Might want to edit them?

I liked the first eight episodes of Death Note and then it got strange. I also hate that heavy metal intro song. It makes no sense and has nothing to do with the show. It seem like a way to appeal to the angsty teenager demographic that Death Note must pull in.

I do not like deathnote...

All anime is horrible.. except for certain ones in which I find certain aspects appealing.

MAR is the prime example. Ghost in the shell is the second

I like it. I think perhaps it co-insides with the thickining of the plot, as such...

This is not a thread to discuss either of those, so kindly depart.

I enjoy Deathnote. I believe it is simply another Faust, but presented in a very creative and intelligent way. I also enjoy FMA.

EDIT: To be honest, I have seen up through Episode 29 on youtube, but then they pulled it, so I haven't been able to see much else.

I cant type agree fast enough!

 

[Samurai Goomba]

I liked Death Note for about 7 volumes of the manga. After that, I felt like the story had been resolved to my satisfaction. But they just kept going, and going, and going... Smallville syndrome.

Monster is a much better alternative. Or Perry Mason, if you hate anime.

 

[crimson5pheonix]

Favorite episode is, imaginatively,

Spoiler

Spoiler: seriously big plot moment

the episode where L dies and Light becomes god in his mind. The last episode is a close second just because Matsuda shoots Light.

 

[rottenbutter]

I really liked Death Note, up until about the point where Light "relinquished" the death note, then it sort of took a nose dive.

And I love the first OP, hate the second.

Wait... SO I'm not allowed to discuss how I don't like Deathnote?

I am so tempted to invoke Godwins Law right now

For all of it or just Anime is horrible

Anyone know where I can get Ghost in the Shell boxsets?

Ebay?

 

[Creos]

I like the part where internet people are being told to leave. It makes a little portion of my soul laugh with glee while the rest of me kind of cringes inside as that first bit starts eating the rest again. Nothing quite like that feeling ^_^

 

[The Wooster]

I loved deathnote, it's a rare breath of fresh air in the stale anime industry. I do believe it went downhill a little bit in the second act, the new characters just weren't very appealing. Near and Mellow stood out as particularly shitty.

 

[crimson5pheonix]

Near was nothing but an L clone, it's true. But there's a certain appeal to it that I just can't grasp, I'm sure.

*wink* It's funnier when you are told to leave.

All of it, some can be withstandable though there is a certain line that can quickly be crossed.
